"Wtf" seems a bit of an understatement.

Gamer "JackTheWhack" had racked up over 120 thousand gamer points and was the highest ranked in New Jersey... According to the article in the link Microsoft was even going to have a feature on him, until they freaked out and completely wiped out his achievements to 0, and labelled him "cheater". Apparantly he sold his 360 after it happened...

So Microsoft is paranoid now? Likes punishing loyal fans to an extent at which the fan is alienated?

Just.... there are no words.


Oh, whaddayano, it's my first c-blog post. Hi...?

All those games and 35 points? sure. And his last activity was over a month ago, so he probably did sell it.
