I stopped caring after you said you have an agenda with MS and your kid is autistic.

Feel bad for your kid because no kid should have to suffer through anything but this is more of your agenda with MS then anything else.

You are just trying to justify your rant on MS by saying they scorned the kid.

MS had no idea he is an autistic child. Cheaters are cheaters and is not MS job to find which are autistic and which are not.

If they go out of their way to find out if the kid is autistic then give back the points. What is to say another kid claims to have autisim or another situation that they cry should give them the chance to get their hacked points back

this would be opening a pandoras box if you ask me.

But then again your hatred towards MS kind of makes this a non issue and more of a dig at MS because they sold you a broken 360

I bet if this was trophies issue on Sony, you would not be so bent out of shape

The truth is that the kid having autism doesn't excuse his cheating, the mother lying to get attention, or anyone blowing this out of proportion when kids get banned from xbox live all the time.

I know quite a bit about autism and autistic kids, I work with them every week through the special olympics, and the kid is still a cheater and the mother is still an attention whore.

Well said.

Irony, because the only ignorance I see here is from you. The truth is, kid's a cheater, mother is an attention whore. Previous posts and articles have proven so.
If this was a non-autistic kid, I don't doubt that you would be reducing him to "a stinking cheater." And your post contradicts itself. You say there needs to be consequences, but you can't say he was a cheater? What would there be consequences for if he wasn't cheating?
You're taking this way too personal when it has absolutely nothing to do with you or your child. Like BNG said, just because he has autism doesn't excuse him from being punished like anyone else. Autism or not, he still cheated.

I agree with pretty much everyone else. Kid cheated no matter how you look at it and the mom is an attention whore.
