The gamertag is | SCAR | and now he's banned until 12/31/9999 LOL

= appearing offline wouldnt have done anything, the whole time i was playing there was debug text running in the right corner and also the text in the bottom middle saying when i logged in and what my GT was. even if i appeared offline they would have still seen that.

its only a ban on the console/gamertag you played it on, i personally have 4 360s and my dad has one of his own, all of which work fine online, and yes, i can easily sign up for a new tag under the same address and name and IP.

The Halo 3 Epsilon test is not unsigned... im sure you read the story where a woman that works at MS got he son the epsilon then a couple guys stole his account and did the second profile glitch to get the beta off him, well they let some people do it then it blossomed into a good 100 people glitching into it, and i was one of them.
