Its hard to believe that these companies do not have a way of tracking a system.

It would be really great if all consoles came with a unique identifier number similar to an electronic serial number on cell phones that could be tied to a persons gamertag just like cell phone # to e.s.n. Once caught/verified boom that console/gamertag has been perma banned. Sure it doesnt keep them from getting another console/username, but it will start to get expensive buying new consoles all the time.

There are some side effects to that idea though, It would pretty much tank the used console market unless there was a way built in to verify the status of a serial number prior to purchase.

Then only the manufacture should have the ability to reset a console during the refurbishing process to avoid retail employes working with their hacker buddies to reset the same console over and over again.

You could IP ban, but anyone can make a dynamic IP so easy

first of all imma throw this one out there for u guys...impossible to ip ban anyone...they would have to ban tens of thousands of ppl to get the offender....and as far as a ban goes ANYTHING TIED TO THE EMAIL USED TO REGISTER THE ACCT GETS BANNED....so if u used it for ur gamertag...and that gets banned...plus its for ur elite and ur downloaded content...zune...ITS ALL GONE...no recourse...and yes i know for 100% positive that is how it works....all that being said , u are wasting ur time complaining about it cuz they dont give a rats ass about any of us...they already have our money and they know there is really nothing we can do about it due to the EULA we digitally sign when we log into their "world". plus...if u have to hack/boost/exploit to play the game then have at it...all it does is prove that u are garbage at the game and most likely the same applies to your real life. :-)

I think it'll be too hard to ban across platforms BUT if somebody is got hacking then they should be giving an instant,permanent ban when caught.

Please stop bumping the topic. If it's going to die, let it die honorably.

Too right I remember. The threads were so entertaining and I had a righteous sense of justice being served. Do the crime serve the time.
