THPSHD PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT FROM TNT

Robomod has achieved their goal to begin banning players they assume or that assume responsibility for modding THPSHD. I was permanently banned from XBL and xbox has verified they will not change their stance on my ban, regardless that it was a specific game, as seen with Call of Duty and other major titles.

Though it saddens me deeply; I must advise no one from this point on use any THPSHD mods in offline play unless you first create a dummy account to play it with.

I've also seen that they have banned a few more players I recognized from the leaderboards.

With that said, once again I would like to state that this is the first game in the series that connected offline play to online leaderboards, in a series that has been modded since the beginning. I attempted to contact Robomod to resolve the issue from day one, hoping they would issue a patch to avoid this, however they chose the less consumer appealing direction and there is nothing we can do.

I will continue releasing mods as I please, just be careful what you do.

Sorry to hear that TNT.
@Demo, he already said it was in an offline game. Leader boards don't get updated with offline achievements.

I use the mods I created and released to the public that are still available via TNTHPS; they're save mods.

"Your account was suspended for engaging in cheating. Please refer to the Code of Conduct, specifically the following sections: - Don't cheat in a game - Don't modify or hack game content to create cheats - Don’t make unauthorized modifications to your account profile or its contents - Don't intentionally play with someone who is using unauthorized software or methods to help inflate your game rank or gamerscore."

That last part is what they're using to ban everyone else who uses it. They talked to me about modding.

It's okay though, I just had to create a new gamertag.

I lost Elite, Minecraft, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, every black ops map pack, etc. So it's not worth it on THPSHD specifically online, that's all I'm saying so no one else will get banned. It's all about the game rank to them.

When THPSHD is released on PC, I will mod it. I won't cheat; but I'll mod it. If I get banned then I'll be annoyed but unless they issue me a C&D I will continue to mod it. If all the modders get banned, i.e. every modder worth mentioning, I wouldn't be surprised if an alternate server is made.

They had to team up with Xbox Live because they couldn't ban players themselves. It's usually an issue covered by the specific game. Robomod should've have done this project, it should've been Neversoft for every single game.

When it comes out on PC I plan to mod it too, hopefully it will be 10x better. Maybe I've just gotten too comfortable with the gaming style but I hate having to wait for shit like a 'revert update.' Especially considering I won't get it at this point because I got banned.

They're just banning accounts though not consoles; I'm just warning people so they won't lose data, like all the games I bought and the 12th prestige mw3.
