Thank God someone had the video, I lost it. After seeing this "unjust mod BS" I was like WAIT, that kid was using mods and being a total jerk! I hope MS finds this kid and bans him for good.
Is anyone else surprised at the number of people HERE that are defending the idiot who got banhammered?
I mean seriously guys...srsly! This guy should be uplifted as an example to other mods on what to do with jackhole modders and kids who think they can swear like an adult and not sound like total tools.
I have a serious issue with this banning. After watching the unedited vid and hearing what the little snot said yes I would like to see him banned. And then kicked in the teeth. However I don't think he should have been banned. I don't agree with mods being online looking for little shits like this. Mods seeking and destroying hackers and cheaters go nuts. I have no control as a player to combat hackers and cheaters. I do have (as do all the other people on XBL) to deal with annoying shits like that without needing my mommy to fight my battles for me. It is too risky for me to think otherwise since it could get out of control in no time. Where does it end? If I am in a game with a mod and call someone a prick or say "fuck" and potentially get banned because the mod doesn't like my voice. I am already scared enough every time I fire up my 360 (RROD) but now I gotta worry about throwing 60 bucks out the window because I don't mind my Ps and Qs online?
FUCK THAT!!!!!! SHITS LIKE HIM IS THE SOLE REASON I HAVE AN IGNORE FEATURE THERE PRO. YOU MIGHT WANT TO TRY IT NEXT TIME.
what I take from this is that microsoft is finally doing it's job and banning pricks who ruin xbox live. I don't see how that is bad, isn't that part of what you pay for?
It looks like this kids lies have caught up with him.
If you look on his Youtube channel, he's issued a very sorry and very scared statement, apologising to the The Pro, the internet and Microsoft for his lies.
Dear internet im sorry for making you guys mad im sorry if i lied im sorry if i was corrupt im sorry in total im sorry to the pro and stepto this whole journey has made me realise how quickly things can escelate sorry everyone modding is done this channel will now be a gameplay channel for you guys to post on
From what I can work out, from Stephen Toulouse's (Stepto) Twitter, all the kids personal details have been made public by anon and now he's regretting his cavalier attitude in pissing so many people off with his antics.
I've been made aware the kid who made the "The Pro" video deets are public. I would like to plea that no one contact him.
I've been on the recieving end of anon. It's scary and unpleasent. He has been banned, leave him alone. He'll learn. Dont scare his family.
Well, it's good that he's realised the mass public lying over the internet and cheating in public games is wrong, it's just a bit of a shame he had learn the hard way and inadvertently involve his family.

I agree that the potential is there for it to get out of hand. But the grounds of the banning were not the 'use of language', it was the user's blatant ignorance to the Live terms of use. He'd been temporarily banned for modding, then created a temporary account to get around it (which grants access of the perma-ban). He then proceded to mock and provoke The Pro (more breach of terms) while re-applying the mod in defiance.
Sorry but that makes no sense. If Pro knew that the kid was using a hacked account to get around his punishment then there should have been no verbal engagement whatsoever. It should have been oops you aren't supposed to be here bye bye. End of story. Engaging him is immature and unproffesional.

I agree with you that it was completely unprofessional, I was merely arguing the reason for the ban. The kid wasn't banned because of what he was saying (though that is breaking the rules), it was because of his modding and temporary accounts. You're right though that The Pro shouldn't have gotten dragged into that. The whole mess would've been avoided if he'd just kept his trap shut and banned the kid.
Edited or not, I know two people that had run-ins with this guy. The first one was sitting in the lobby and The Pro started talking trash. After the match(that The Pro lost) my friend was like "Why do you talk a big game when you suck?" and The Pro said "I dont know but I'll give you two weeks to think about it." and temp banned him for two weeks.
Then, that friends brother was playing against The Pro and they were on Wasteland. He was about to get a nuke because he was 28-0 and only had to finish his chopper gunner. The Pro temp banned him for 24 hours so he wouldnt be able to use his nuke.
If you ask me, The Pro is childish. He starts trash talking, then bans people that do it to him because its against the TOS. Hes a hypocrite.
I'm gonna take this with a big bucket of salt, seeing as how somebody already tried to frame The Pro for something he didn't really do. Sorry if your story is true, but I am not buying it.
