Article: Sony Gearing Up To Issue The Ban Hammer - CFW Users Beware!

yeah - I'll admit I played a bootleg copy of Black Ops II online before release date and I'm not banned.

@Elmo111 - you say use CFW to play your legitimate backups but in the very next sentence you say you downloaded Black Ops II. This is what I've been talking about this whole time on this thread. People always saying "Sony banned me but I didn't do anything wrong" but then the truth comes out. You pirated a game and got caught at it. Your PSN ban is not hard to figure out

@others complaining about bans - you knew the risks when you installed CFW, or when you installed a hack like F*ckPSN or SEN Enabler. Those tools break the security of PSN which is a breach of your user contract. What's hard to understand about that?

@BahumatLord
There is nothing wrong about pirating/doing whatever to your CFW ps3 because it is yours. But for online the server is Sony's. (Which is why the game MUST be bought because you are going into Sony's territory)

@Everyone else
No matter what justifications people use for backing up their discs or not. The facts will remain once you are on Sony servers you must abide by their rules. As I stressed before no bootleg game is worth getting your PSN account banned. But thread after thread and time after time people are still playing Black Ops 2 pirated and still getting banned ignoring all of the warnings. I just can simply feel sorry for these people.

CFW is already a privilege for those who DON'T buy their games they are saving alot of money but just cant go online. It's just the fact that you cant go online with it. If you want to do those things buy another console. Me personally having both OFW + CFW (again) they both have their ups and downs but I personally recommend in buying another console. If you cant get $250 for a newer console then how were you playing/buying your games before the jailbreak.

yep article has been completely derailed because of people's "morales" its a shame really this topic could have been put to good use like how many people have been bannned e.t.c i think all anti piracy whiners should just call it quits and this leave this site, it will make it peaceful for all of us instead of hearing their preaching every single day.

this is a hacking site and always has been since the ps2 days, if you don't like any form of hacking then just leave and go and join a hippy sony fanboy site or something, jesus.

anyways i'm out, don't want to set anymore flaming mnes off.

These kind of topics always get derailed

I wasn't whining or preaching. If someone wants to pirate then that is their choice the only points I was making is that people aren't banned from PSN because of the pirated version since there are too many people with it who are not banned from PSN.

Still not banned. I was playing a backup of Playstation All Stars yesterday. Yes, I did buy the game so I could get the Vita version for free.
