    I dont think he has put 2 + 2 together to figure out that Jim also owns <u>this</u> site.

    I have sen the very same option of the nuts n bolts trick. Im pretty savy with electronics and have repaired many things over the years and even I had Jim fix my 360. There's a reason hes still in business.

      im gonna ask him and let you guys now exactly what he said, cause i dont know shit about xbox's or gaming systems. But he does fix em for a living so im goin by what he told me. He mentioned it was some bolts get hot and causes it to overheat or somethin. Ill ask him tomorrow tho. As far as the "n00b" comment goes, yeah ill admit imma "n00b" to game systems but you act like cause i dont come on Fargo Street im new to forums or whatever, and if you do, you sir are an idiot!

      Yup.

      I'm an idiot that fixed 4000+ Xbox 360's. :drunken_smilie: I dont' care if your friend does it for a living, or whatever. I WROTE the tutorials all of these kids follow on Xbox-Scene.

      But, believe what you want to believe, your still a n00b. This isn't a section to discuss your so-called fixes for Xbox 360's. Read the TOP OF THE PAGE and tell me what it says. This is why you are a n00b.

      Strike two sir.

        Yeah I read the top of the page, and I replied with some info on possibly a quick and easy fix. Like I said I'm no genious with xbox's I was just goin off of what a buddy of mine told me and figured I'd share it (tryin to help) and I get flamed. I mean honestly whats the point of posting a thread sayin he has the 3 rings of death if your the only person thats suppose to chime it about it? Why doesnt he just send you a PM and thats that? If your gonna kick me for tryin to help so be it. I knew you were the Admin, cool. Did I know you were an xbox pro? No. Thats why I replied to see if I could help.

            Just out of curiosity, where do you work? I'd like to stop by your place of business and tell everyone walking through the door that I have a better and easier way of doing whatever it is that you do.

            Oh, wait, if I do that your employer will call the police and have me removed? But, I was just trying to help! Honest, didn't know that your store was a local shop or business that was trying to make a living doing this sort of thing! I thought that just because you had a storefront you weren't trying to earn a living at this. I swear to god I'm not a n00b, that is how it works at every other store I've visited!

              Your missing the point. This thread was started under a sponsor forum.

              It wasn't a general "hey! what's wrong with my xbox" type thread in a general public area.

              Anyway, honestly, it's not like I'm trying to protect a secret here (hell I posted tutorials on HOW TO DO THIS online).

              I don't really care either way, I'm mostly just giving you shit cause it was in the sponsor forums

                Its titled under the business section yes, but again this is an information forum correct? If I would have known that Jeff ran a business by fixing peoples xbox's on here I would have never replied to the thread. Like I said this is an information thread, there isnt anywhere on here that states its for Jeff fixing xbox's so its not like im running in here tryin to ruin his business.

                See I figured this was somebody askin if there was anyway to fix his 3 rings of death or whatever. If I was aware that you repaired them I wouldnt have posted in here. I dont have a problem gettin shit from people, I drive a honda it happens alot lol. Like I said I didnt know that you do what you do, now that I know I wont post about fixing xbox's again cause I know you can take care of it.

                  There is tho, theres a reason its in the "mplsgaming.com" section, under the business category. Hmm....:icon_scratch:

                            I think "Jeff" is a hypothetical person.

                                        Jim doesn't come cheap....if you have to ask, you can't afford him.
