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:

Great Topic

God, how many rep whore threads are gonna be made?

You forgot to modify your PARAM.SFO on homebrew to normal game names

It won't help regardless. P.S. using homebrew offline won't help unless you do it on a different username.

Nothing will help that much though, sony aren't stupid.

i just violated all of these except the dont go online with a backup rule

I don't care about rep minus me if you wish just doing my best to help

Na I meant offline user on PS3 with no PSN acc at all.

I'm pretty sure the Boot History is for the whole console and not 1 Profile so playing an offline profile wouldn't work.

And deleting the Boot History, Well, If it's been sent it's been sent, no point in deleting if you've already sent one that's full with homebrew

Man this banning shit brings me back to my runescape days.. Back when botting was huge and people would lay awake at night praying they wouldn't get banned for botting.

LOLOL people did too.

Anyways.. Nice post

im still on my cfw and playing black ops online i have sega,nes,snes but not play my homebrews at the moment im still not banned wish me luck:dunce:
