please dont flame if i posted this in the wrong place but I remember seeing a while back about if you earn an achievement while offline and then go online it may show as locked still and then not allow you to re-earn it. anyone know what Im talking about and how to fix it?

Are you having any problem in particular? Because I know of only one similar issue, but it has nothing to do with earning the achievement offline. The achievement just APPEARS that they got it offline because they actually modded their achievements.

no, I earned the stunning achievement the night odst came out but i was offline. I was able to go online later that night and i noticed that my achievements loaded except stunning so I figured ok Ill just get it again. Now Ive tried a dozen times to get it again and it wont unlock.

What achievement? To my knowledge the only ones that must be earned online are the Vidmasters. I'm assuming you could get the 200000 par scores offline because I did them online so I wouldn't know, it doesn't say you have to be online to get them.

I know that you dont HAVE to be online, but I remember seeing something about being sure that if you earn achievements while offline that theres something you have to do before you go online to ensure they transfer to xbl properly.

Did you earn it offline and then recover your gamertag to another xbox?

It's not an official source, but it sounds like the problem is discussed in this GameSpot forum. It sounds like you may be SOL, but I'll let you know if I find out more.
