ATTENTION MODERATORS. My latest ban (14-day ban from Qbix89) is not legitimate, take a look for yourself. Please review this before considering me a "repeat offender". Thank you.
To say the truth, this wasn't as helpful as I thought it would be. This information is very basic and most hackers know how to create a situation where it is nearly impossible to get your account back.
There are some major things wrong with this thread:
1. They most likely will change your account's Windows Live ID, which makes you have to call customer support for your account, and the Windows Live ID that is associated with your account is different.
2. Hackers change all personal information pertaining to the account.
There is still a chance, but you have to be smart to make your account's recovery happen.
