Tested Theory ---->UNPLUG your xbox a ...

So basically me and my friends (7 ppl including myself) all purchased xbox's a while ago when halo 3 was first released.Me and another friend heard about rrod and decided to be cautious so every time one of us is done playing we unplug our 360 from the wall. A year and a half later both of our boxes still work fine while each one of our friends that did not unplug theirs have had their xbox break, three of those were sent to ms for repairs (costing 100 dollars and a few months of missed gameplay) one was sold to gamestop for 50 bucks and the final one had to have the face plate removed and some other parts to keep it from over heating - a real hastle when you are trying to sync a controller because you cant press the button.So it's just a theory but think about it, things break when they are left plugged in (cell phones, ipods, rechargeable batteries etc.) and your carbon foorprint increases when things are left plugged in also because electricity is still flowing through them (=bad for enviroment) and it really is not a hastle to get up and unplug the 360 but it really is a hastle to send it into ms for repairs. So it is probably worth it to give it a shot.Oh and we use our 360's pretty heavilyI have 6 days on cod4, 3000 games on halo, and a ton of other time spread out amongst the rest of my games.Tested Theory ----%26gt;UNPLUG your xbox a ...

[QUOTE=''krunkfu2'']I'm pretty sure every console manual I've read says to unplug the console when it's not in use[/QUOTE]yeah thats crazy you dont have to unplug the console when your done especially since the 360 has an external power supply thats def not the cause of the RROD.
I see no harm in trying this...
I unplugged my 360 everytime I wasn't using and still got the RROD 3 times. Now I don't care anymore, if it breaks I'll fix it. (again)

Just imagine every 360 made has cancer, there is no way to save it.
Sounds like something to try, when I get a new console.
