I have seen a few threads around the web about people being banned on PSN there are few measures you can take to have the less possible chance of being banned and with the recent lawsuit of Geohot $ony aren't taking this lightly.

1.Stealth your homebrew - Stealthing your homebrew is hiding it with a legit name and ID so your friends will see you playing "Call of Duty: Black Ops" while your actually on homebrew.
There is a tutorial posted here You must login or register to view this content.

2.Clear your boot_history.dat ,This is a file on the Ps3 which stores all games and applications you have been playing Offline & Online. There is a guide included here: You must login or register to view this content.

3.Don't talk big ex "OMG IM 1337 HAX I HAZZZ CUSTOM FIRMWARE"
if the person your talking to is smart enough he will "Grief Report" you only way to do this on the PS3 is through XMB Messaging some people will try to lure you to msg back etc...you can also grief report on the blog and PS3 Site but usually people won't do this.

4.Use Homebrew on a Offline User on the PS3, This will place the homebrew history into a offline user which would be the safest way to use Homebrew.

5.Don't put your comment to something regarding Hacks in anyway.
Example: GOT 3.55 JAILBREAK!
Example 2: Sony Is ****ed JB FTW
ETC
This will put a flag on your head for all your friendlist one of em could "Report you"

6.When backups are released (if they are) NEVER PLAY THEM ONLINE.

Hope it helps :y:

Right, someone said me "Reported to PSN" , when I was doing a public CL.

But he cant report you if I do not send a msg to him? :mudkip:

Very helpful topic. But by the moment i dont want risk to be banned... for now.

Surely Sorny itself is behind all this crap to scare people about being banned :gluk:

Are you on Geohots 3.55 cause for all the back ups ive played they all want me to run an update but i never do it i just bypass it cause idk what it might do. So did you run the update of ur black ops and is ur black ops a back up or are u running the official blu ray

if u can answer these questions it'll clear some shit up for me thanks

yea im on geohot cfw and yes im on official bluray black ops i dont have multiman or open manager i have sega,nes,snes what i was trying to say if i can get banned for using geohot cfw.

I violated all of this loool

lool <3 the pic
and ty for the advice

I just don't care. If I get banned, I'm getting banned doing what I love! Where's the fun in being boring and not getting banned?

good thread, covered everything. Should be stuck.
