Xbox live troubles?

[eZ NoXide]

Has anyone else had trouble signing in of Xbox live? I know I have. I went on major's site to realize that I wasn't the only one. http://majornelson.com/archive/2007/12/29/xbox-live-status-12-29.aspx#comments

Ya all my games have been going bonkers lately. For instance, Call of Duty takes forever to get into a match and always shows annoying messages like "cannot connect to host". Also Guitar Hero I was stuck on the checking for downloaded content screen for close to an hour today:(:(

yea apparently all this trouble is due to all the new live users that are signing up.

Yes there is a glitch in the system, if you had an xbox with a free 1month trial on it. It was possible to create an unlimited amount of live files instead of the 3 per xbox limit. The 3 most common problems are 1 No recovering gamertags 2 Xbox dashboard not working even though you have full internet connections 3 All the live games mess up unless you play local.

Yea I have mixed feelings about this. I can get on live, but sometimes it takes forever to load. I feel like we shouldn't have to deal with this, but also sh*t happens, and we can't always control everything. I haven't decided if I think we deserve compensation or not.

We dont deserve anything...Seriously guys, it was just christmas...the only thing your experiencing is a bunch of new people joining...just becuase your dashboard has been messed up, and you couldnt always connect to games for the past few days doesnt mean Microsoft owes you something. Yeah, we pay for a service that hasnt been working 100% for the past few days, but thats life...in the end, we both win (more people on LIVE). It will be fixed, and I recall this happening last year to...I dont see why its such a big deal...(sorry for the rant...but Ive seen WAY to many forums freaking out over this...)
