Fileshare secuirty

I have an idea to make it that authors of a map don't get banned. Maybe there can be some mod to the file that doesn't let it be uploaded to the fileshare. I don't think it will work but it would keep people from getting banned by accidentally uploading it and it would protect authors of modded stuff.

The authors don't get banned. The file uploaders do.

In any case it doesnt really matter. Just keep modded content off of your fileshare and you wont have any problems. Everone knows whats modded or not. Everyone has a choice.

Re: Fileshare secuirty

In the new update they said that the author of the modded content will get banned.

A way to make it so it can't detect who the author is would be nice.

The only way is to never upload it to a fileshare. Bungie isn't stupid and they have set up ways to detect the actual author. There's no way to bypass it.

I'm pretty sure the way they decide the real author is through the console ID in the CON file, since most modders aren't smart enough to null it out

That's how modders get caught

It's from uploaded files on file shares...

They don't care if you keep it off the file shares.

Oh wait... I just realised how stupid that was!

I forgot you don't actually upload the full CON file... Sorry

You're right Unknown

but if you create a modded map, then spread it through custom games like everyone on here says to do, someone you play with could save the map and put it on their own fileshare. then you'd get banned for being the author.

If you null them, you're not going to be able to play it. People null their ID's when they are uploading the file to a website. You must resign it to your proper ID's if you want to play it on your 360.

To null something, just fill the resigner form with 0's in the ID boxes and hit resign.

Bungie can ban you whenever they want as long as they have Microsoft on their side. They can get your ID's if they want.

Re: Fileshare secuirty

so if they do ban the author (which i read that at bungie tu), you could change the name to anyone you hate and ban them
also they said you could upload screens of mods as long as the screen itself wasnt modded, just a lil side note that made me happy inside =^,.,^=

Well you can now get banned for showing your friend your mod and then some other kid joins the game and leaks the map to his file share, then you get banned. And don't say no one would do that because they would get file share banned i know alot of people who still upload mods to their file shares.

When they said they were banning authors I think they were talking about the authors of picture mods, not usermaps.

No, they meant the authors of ANY mods.

No, not really. Bungie made sure they got it across that editing the author won't hide the actual author. They ban the real author, not the name on the file.
