It was mentioned in another thread that Major Nelson has said they can't talk about Live or progress towards fixing it because that Texas lawsuit means it's gone legal and they can't talk about the case without prejudicing it.

Well that means Schappert will have to keep quiet about Live then at GDC because lawsuits take forever...
What I dont understand then if they can sue Microsoft for Live being down what about all the rest of the millions of users?? Why just Texas? What about all the other states??
This isnt a question to you or anyone but just generalising on the fact that its just a small handful apparently of people that are suing....in one state...
Live is fine now although it would have been nice of Microsoft to have informed all users of the issues rather than keep quiet about it.

Its not just Texas, that just happens to be where the lawsuit originates...I believe it will affect all LIVE! users as it is a class action lawsuit, the class presumably being people who were LIVE! members during the holidays, possibly (probably) limited to the US, possibly including Puerto Rico and the USVI. State and regional laws may vary. All Rights Derided. So don't worry, whatevers left after the lawyers take their cut, you'll get your f**king share...no need to start your own lawsuit.
And while you might get a free arcade game, some MS points, or maybe even a small cash refund, in the here and now MS is legally bound not to discuss the state of LIVE! and some asshole lawyer is going to get fat siphoning off some of OUR money from MS that could have went back into improving and expanding the service, and its reliability instead of buying his mistress a BMW and his wife a new rack. This lawsuit IS NOT A GOOD THING FOR LIVE! USERS. full stop. It will come back and bite us on the ass somehow, if it hasn't started already. full stop.
