Microsoft Taking Down Gamerscore Cheaters

Major Nelson recently announced that Microsoft would be punishing cheaters of the Xbox Live Gamerscore system more severely. He stated that if you were caught cheating Microsoft would:
• Reset the entire Gamerscore for an account to zero
• The account will be unable to regain all previously obtained achievements and Gamerscore, however, the players will have the ability to gain future Achievements by earning them fairly, like the majority of the Xbox LIVE community does.
• The account will be clearly labeled as a cheater for the community to view on xbox.com. You can see an example here. In dash, the personal view of the gamercard will be labeled as well.
Thank you Microsoft. Modders aren’t the only ones that should be punished. Take down those people with no lives who constantly manipulate the system in order to have a little title of highest gamerscore on the planet or whatever. FYI you guys, no one likes you. Now maybe we can have a fair ranking system. Unfortunately, those hackers will probably find a way around this in a few days.

I don’t even know how anyone would go about cheating in the first place.
