Sup my fellow forgehubians, Well i'm here today to warn all of you about a problem with xbox live that i did not know about and happens to everybody. The problem is, whether you use a credit card or prepaid subscritpition card, your account will expire, and it is not renewable. The problem is that you do not 1. log into xbox.com enough 2. log into windows live media enough 3. do not play xbox enough {lol} 4. log onto account.live.com. Microsoft assums that if you don't do any of this then your account has been hacked, and your account has been "Corrupted". Meaning that you cannot renew your account ever, and you can only have a silver accout. It does not work even if you try while you still can play live. you have to log onto xbox.com, windows live media, play xbox live, and log onto account.live.com at least once a month in order to be able to renew your current account. I have learned this lesson the hard way and so have millions of other according to google. Apparently this is also in the terms of use and service thing you are supposed to read but nobody does. i feel like mg: right now. Sincerely, Your friendly forger, Who dislikes Microsoft for their long terms of use and service thing, MonkeyMan P.S. You cannot keep your achievents on another account, or your ranks. I know people I hate These things too. *sadface*
... Why? The accounts should be hack proof anyway. If you're stupid enough to give your account away, then yeah, don't expect it back. This is a stupid idea. I'm sorry to hear that you now need a new account.
Stupid Microsoft ruins it again! The only thing Microsoft has done right is Windows XP and The XboX 360 console.
