XBL score reset was a glitch... restore in progress

What a fantastic service.

Be fair, though. If it's hackers, what can they do? Everything in the technological world these days gets hacked, then the company gets a step ahead of the hackers, then the hackers find a new solution, and so on...

Maybe they shouldn't have included demo discs with unsigned executables to store kiosks
 
So what's the point of hacking again? To have an awesome score that amounts to nothing in the first place, which then gets erased in a few hours once Microsoft figures out what you did and bans you, thus costing you $50 and whatever achievements you've gotten so far?

The score is secondary...for most hackers it's the thrill and satisfaction of figuring out how to do it in the first place. It makes it worth the $50 and banning (which even presents a new challenge: circumvent the ban and do it again).
 
You don't need to pay $50 for Xbox Live Gold to post scores. But if they ban X360s from going online, that'll be interesting
