    THE RULES OF THIS THREAD:

    1. This thread is purely for Board's members to share free XBL codes, nothing else.

    2. This is the only thread that you can ask for or announce that you have free XBL codes. Any other thread created on the forum asking for free codes will be deleted immediately.

    3. This thread is not for advertising cheap codes or cheap gold subscription locations or for enquiring where you might acquire them either. If you post anything like that, your post will be deleted.

    4. Do not post a request for free XBL codes unless you have a minimum of 50 posts already. This facility is for our existing members to help each other out and not for random members of the general public to beg for free hand outs. Failure to comply with this, will result in your post being deleted.

    5. When offering a code, it should go to the member at the top of the list first and if it hasn't been accepted within a reasonable period of time (say 24 hours) then it gets offered to the next on the list and the person who missed out gets put to the bottom of the list. If you need a code badly enough, you should be checking the thread at least once a day, so if you miss your opportunity, tough luck!

    6. Codes should be exchanged via PM only. Posting a code directly onto the thread is not recommended.

    When I tried to download it, it said only availble to gold subscribers. Some stuff I can't download, like the FFXIII theme, because it says "not available in your region" yet I can buy anything from the indie games section.:confused:

    I was telling a friend about it earlier, and she had no problem downloading it either, and neither of them are new accounts such that might have a months free gold or anything. Nothing on the download to say gold exclusive either. weird.

    As said above if 141-OM does not need the code it is yours :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭Con_R


    I've got a 48 hour trial for whoever's next in line. I think we need to start clarifying who's next and who's already been sorted.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,162 ✭✭✭TheMooseInNam


    Current List on members requiring codes:

    1. 141 Oscar Mike... sorted

    2. Azure Sky, needs US free code only... not sorted

    3. Sherdydan... sorted

    I would like to suggest that when offering a code that it goes to the member at the top of the list first and if it hasn't been accepted within a reasonable period of time (say 24 hours) then it gets offered to the next on the list and the person who missed out gets put to the bottom of the list. If you need a code badly enough, you should be checking the thread at least once a day, so if you miss your opportunity, tough luck!

    GAA man, can you hold your code for 141 Oscar Mike, please. Give him till tomorrow to accept it.

    CON R can you offer your code to SherdyDan since Azure Sky only requires a US free code. please.

    Post up once the codes are accepted or declined and I'll adjust the list accordingly, cheers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭Con_R


    Cool with me man, once *sherdydan* confirms he still wants it I'll confirm then PM

    Edit: meant to say sherdydan, it's nit a US code, sorry Azure

    Not Azure, he only wants a US version of a free code (if there's such a thing?) so skip him and offer it to No. 3, thanks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,162 ✭✭✭TheMooseInNam


    Ok. so that means GAA man has a 48 hour code to offer and Azure still requires a US version free trial code.

    This is working out quite nicely :)

    Not a problem my friend, PM on the way


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭Con_R


    The one I sent sherdydan didn't work for some reason, so I guess he just goes back where he was in the queue, correct?

    Exactly.

    That was a pity it didn't work. GAA man can still offer his though


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭Con_R


    Grand. Sure if I get any more they'll all be going to the lads here, I never use them anyway. Might as well go to a good home :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,370 ✭✭✭GAAman


    Exactly.

    Hi folks, apologies i am only back on now. I just sent sherdydan a pm with my code :)

    Actually just in case, sherdydan did you try redeem the code on an existing live profile? The code is for new profiles, so you would have to create a new one to get the 48 hours on gold live rather than "topping up" your existing profile with 48 hours.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 393 ✭✭sherdydan


    ahhhh, now i see, im after creating a new profile with Con_R's code and have my xbox live now!!!:)

    so GAA man, keep that code and ya can give it to someone else!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,370 ✭✭✭GAAman


    Good stuff, my code is still up for grabs so!

    I never realised that! I've probably wasted loads of codes thinking they were useless or already redeemed over the years because of that :o

    4. Do not post a request for free XBL codes unless you have a minimum of 50 posts already. This facility is for our existing members to help each other out and not for random members of the general public to beg for free hand outs. Failure to comply with this, will result in your post being deleted.

    Nobody's going to give you a 3 month code for free. Go buy it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,819 ✭✭✭rymus


    edit: got sorted, 3 month sub came through eventually


    Garv, added you recently too. Looking to learn the BC2 ropes if there are any games going for noobs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,162 ✭✭✭TheMooseInNam

    Congrats Jimboblukas, posting twice on a thread that specifically requires 50 genuine posts to be allowed to use the thread has earned you a day off the forum.

    Come back and ask for a three month free code again... and you'll be taking a much longer break.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,162 ✭✭✭TheMooseInNam

    Seriously?!? What are you doing posting that in this thread, straight after I post up the rules of the thread? Post that here again and you will be taking a holiday from the forum.
