Xbox Live Labels Autistic Boy "Cheater"

Post Reply New Topic

He was so good, he was labeled a 'cheater.'
Can't they set up some kind of after-school program for this kid or some program where he can learn some skills like carpentry?

So how did he cheat? Did he reprogram the game?

According to Stephen Tolouse's official XBox Live Twitter account, it was indeed confirmed as illegitimate modification of the boy's achievements. Details have been provided to the boy's family, not to the general public.

They called him a cheater because he was a cheater.

Stephen Toulouse, Microsoft's Director of Police and Enforcement wrote, "The account Zombie Kill67 transferred from the Xbox it is normally seen on, to an Xbox in another city. The account earned several achievements for Halo-3 that can only be done online and in succession. It was clear they were unlocked out of order and offline. Earning successive online achievements out of order and offline is an impossible feat, not due to skill, but due to the technology of the system. It can only be done by modifying the account and faking the achievements."

It's an Xbox Crime that could have only been committed with Julias' gamertag and password.

Now Julias' mother, Jennifer Zdenek, says her son did give his information to a fellow gamer online so he could get what is known as "Recon Armor".

Zdenek says, "My son did give his Gamertag. I did warn him about this but seeing it wasn't a bank password or anything big, it's just a game we didn't worry about it too much and the boy just offered to give him Recon Armor, which he did."

Microsoft says it doesn't matter who the player is, cheaters will be sanctioned.

Jennifer denies Julias meant to cheat, he only wanted that special armor, now she just wants to put it behind them.
