<p>See, old <em>| Scar |</em> here was just going about his business, updating his <em>Uno</em> game on Live, when suddenly he got the above message.  Why would the evil empire of Microsoft do this to a poor, unassuming gamer such as himself?</p>
<p>From his post on the <a href="http://forums.xbox.com/15257814/ShowPost.aspx">Xbox Support Forum</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>I think I know why we got banned now</p>
<p>yep i sure do</p>
<p>Do you think they would ban my console because I played halo 3 epsilon yesterday?</p></blockquote>
<p>Okay, genius, here&#8217;s some free advice.  Don&#8217;t play games illegally.  If you choose to ignore that nugget of wisdom, here&#8217;s another one&#8230;don&#8217;t connect to Live while you play said illegal game.</p>
<p>But don&#8217;t sweat, | Scar |.  That ban expires on 12/31/9999.  Only 7,992 years to go!</p>
