Gamerscore Corrections

About Gamerscore corrections

A gamerscore correction occurs on a player’s LIVE account when they gain achievements through avoiding game play and the use of external tools. LIVE is committed to keeping the service free of this type of behavior as it violates the LIVE Terms of Use. When abnormal achievement or gamerscore activity is found, LIVE modifies the gamerscore of players who meet specific and automated criteria.
A LIVE player who obtained their gamerscore in this abnormal way will

• Find their gamerscore reset to zero, and
• Be unable to regain all previously earned achievements, and
• Be labeled as a “cheater” for the community to view.

While players who have been identified by these criteria will start from a zero gamerscore, they will still be able to gain achievements for future games. In other words, we give them another chance to earn future achievements by earning them as other “fair” players do. The original gamerscore correction will remain permanent without any way to appeal.
Questions and answers

Under what circumstances does LIVE correct a specific gamerscore? Specific and automated criteria are used to determine if a player has earned achievements by using tools that circumvent the game or avoid game play entirely. A player who meets these criteria has their gamerscore corrected.

How does LIVE know a player has been cheating on their gamerscore versus another player? We look for abnormal achievement and gamerscore activity using criteria that identifies users who have used external means to earn achievements without really playing the game. Users who play games
legitimately to earn an achievements are unaffected by this.

Does being a “cheater” change a player’s experience on LIVE? We only correct the player’s current gamerscore and label them as a “cheater.” This label can be observed on Xbox.com, and through the player’s view of their gamercard on a console or PC connected to LIVE. They are still allowed to legitimately gain future achievements and the player’s experience doesn’t change in any other way.

I think I know someone who has been “cheating” – why haven’t you corrected their gamerscore? For gamerscore corrections, cheating is when you gain achievements through avoiding game play and the use of external tools. If a player hasn’t met specific criteria then we don’t correct their gamerscore. If your definition of cheating is different, then gamerscore correction isn’t the answer – you should consider reporting the user through the feedback reporting system. It is also possible that the player is not cheating at all.

I’ve had my gamerscore corrected, is there any way to appeal the decision? There is no way to appeal a gamerscore correction. We only correct gamerscores for players who meet the criteria 100%. Your best choice is to show the community you won’t do it again.

But it was my little brother/roommate/guest that did this using my gamertag. Can I appeal? No. As is outlined in the Terms of Use you are responsible for all activity on your account.

I’m worried I might get my gamerscore corrected. What should I do? Like the vast majority of Xbox LIVE members, if you earn achievements by playing through games like any other player, then you have nothing to worry about. Gamerscore correction only applies to players who use external means or avoid game play to earn achievements.

I’ve heard of other players getting banned. Why don’t you just ban these gamertags? We believe in players reforming themselves, which is why gamerscore correction only applies to previously earned achievements. This allows these players to earn achievements like other “fair” players without having to get banned from LIVE. However, any user who violates the LIVE Terms of Use is subject to having their gamertag banned.

Yea, lets just hope this doesn't happen to him.

[Venomous Fire]

It wont happen to Scar, 8 people got reset, and one Msoft Gamertag..... its odd how they call it the reset 7....

Anyways, One was just to target 360gs, cakernag

The rest all had HACKED gamerscore, like, at least 50k hacked, if not more They wont pay much attention to someone with 100k or so, the people reset all had 200k+

[CaSh]

I don't get why people boost for gamer score. Seriously, it means nothing. Especially if you have over 50k legit, and do nothing but play for GS, and not even online, get a life. But for those who have over 50k just by owning, and playing a lot of games for fun then that previous statement was not directed towards you. Gamer score is not going to get you anywhere in life. So for anyone/ everyone on here who boosts for GS, whether your an Administrator , Moderator, V.I.P., Premium, Member, w/e get a life. Seriously, it's pathetic.

[Venomous Fire]

Its pathetic to use resources at your disposal to get easy gamerscore?

Who has more of a life, the guy who loads up a bunch of saves and gets 1k in a game in 3 hours, or the guy who plays it legit and gets the 1k in 3 weeks

Good way to look at it . They wont reset people for the seriously glitch. If they did thats ALOT of people for just 1 game.

[aragon owns 87]

yeah there are so many people who have done the seriously glitch, and the only way to really tell is that they see their kills, but even then, most people get it before they reach 10,000 kills. so im safe lol. well at least on that game. most my games arent boo hoo. please dont reset me lol. gay microsoft.

[TheresTwoOfUs]

I can imagine if microsoft was reading that post, they will be like, ok we wont reset his gs, he said please...wait whats that on the end of his post...gay microsoft??

In the end, they both fail.

[TheresTwoOfUs]

zarcu, why's your karma so low?

[CaSh]

Wow, spam much. Anyway Zarcu I agree with you completely. Gamer score will get you no where in life. If you cheat for it, it's a complete waste of time. I don't know about you guys, but I play games to have fun and if I happen to get some GS along the way then so be it. At least I earned it.

[Saiyan]

I miss those days. I hate achievements/trophies what have you. Since when does giving you points that do absolutely nothing for you in game or in real life = replay value.

I might not be so opposed to them if they were like fun things to do or crazy things (not crazy hard). GS is nothing more than something for people to brag about and compete over.

Don't get me wrong their trick works. I certainly am guilty of playing games WAY past the point of them being fun just to earn a few more GS points. I've even played some stupid games I would never normally play to get GS.

I wish they would abolish achievements/trophies/stats so games could get back to being about the fun and only the fun. Not all that other bullcrap that turns most of us males into neanderthals grunting for attention.
