- inactive, on 12/14/2008, -13/+421Ha... that's an awesome story.
- aleceiffel87, on 12/14/2008, -8/+323I have a feeling you're a glass half empty kind of person.
- ry4nsm1th, on 12/14/2008, -45/+308Since when are resident assistants allowed to just walk into your room and search for ***** and then just walk out with it while you aren't there, especially with only this as evidence? For all he knows it could have been the other way around and that guy could have stolen the controller.
- Strongo, on 12/14/2008, -2/+223I'd like a follow up as to what happened to the little ass
- DarkProd, on 12/14/2008, -13/+197I would just get in (Or wait outside) the dorm of the thief, and when he comes back I would punch the ***** out of his face.
Then divide his balls by zero. - tommyp2010, on 12/14/2008, -9/+188sherlock holmes is back on the case, now with technology!
- inactive, on 12/14/2008, -0/+147well, no, but you're driving into creepytown, population you.
- 80hd, on 12/14/2008, -3/+127 Possible loss of a place to live, suspension, expulsion, criminal charges, bribery involving bacon etc
- Ajajadude, on 12/14/2008, -1/+120It depends on your residential contract.
RAs at my school would check your room for hazards (candles, extension cords, etc) that were prohibited even if you weren't there. I'm sure the kid was able to provide proof of ownership or the RA new this kid had a 360 (one of my old RAs would always be in my room playing Madden on my PS2).
And if the kid is in a position to steal a controller, why not just steal the whole thing? - JigoroKano, on 12/14/2008, -7/+122http://media.www.the-standard.org/media/storage/pa ...
The full article without useless commentary. - smitty72, on 12/14/2008, -6/+103Nicely done, if that didn't work, I wonder if you can report the serial number as stolen to MS and have it tracked if it tries to connect to live? Likely possible but too expensive.
- peterjmag, on 12/14/2008, -5/+95"Based on this discovery, Ketsenburg said he realized that his Xbox must be nearby, he said."
- Rally603, on 12/15/2008, -0/+80Internet tough guy, hooooooooooooo!
/thundercats - gaqua, on 12/14/2008, -4/+83Stop using the $ sign for the S. It wasn't clever or funny when it started 20 years ago, it wasn't clever or funny when it gained popularity in newsgroups and BBSs in the early 90s, it wasn't funny on the internet in the late 90s and early 00s, and it's not funny now.
Just stop it. - evilesttoast, on 12/14/2008, -3/+79Bacon should be our new currency.
- jerstud56, on 12/15/2008, -0/+72I got my back stolen Zune 120GB about a month and a half ago...I had to send it into Microsoft cause of a hardware issue - and they make you put in your serial number. about 3 weeks after I got it back it was stolen out of my car, at which a bunch of other cars were stolen out of the same day.
It showed up 3 weeks later in some kid's bag that the police were searching and looked up the serial number that I had gave them...I solved 8 break-ins that day! Woot! AND I got my window payed for. Hells yeah. - inactive, on 12/14/2008, -12/+77I have my ex-wife's old shirt... will that help me find her?
- olafcore, on 12/14/2008, -3/+66and why wouldn't you steal the controller too?
EDIT: also, you could find someone with an Xbox 360 and tether YOUR controller to it -- and pull the same story and steal someone else's Xbox 360 with the help of the naive school. - Vosem, on 12/14/2008, -2/+64Yes they are linked to a specific system. You can use them with another console, but you'd have to physically sync the two together first. So yes, it was definitely his 360 that it was connecting to.
The thief should at the very least be kicked out of school. - im2emo4myshrt, on 12/15/2008, -2/+64I figured someone was going to make this comment, so I just controlled F'ed to digg you.
- olafcore, on 12/14/2008, -1/+57Which is stored online at XBL once you register your console.
- ZombieSociety, on 12/15/2008, -0/+55"So I says to the guy, I says, 'Glen,' I says, my Xbox must be nearby, I says to him," Ryan said.
- drshorty, on 12/14/2008, -0/+55I think the kotaku version is a little better in that they don't include the guy's last name in every single sentence.
Ketsenberg is an annoying name. Well Ketsenberg is only annoying now because Ketsenberg is Ketsenberg "Ketsenberg", said Ketsenberg. - anizzle, on 12/14/2008, -1/+50http://i37.tinypic.com/v33fhz.gif
- inactive, on 12/14/2008, -4/+51Plus you'd have to actually know the serial number...
- Skootles, on 12/15/2008, -0/+45Remind me again what a brain genius is?
- purplesawdust, on 12/14/2008, -7/+515 minutes after he posted that comment he went right back to sucking Sony's dick.
- inactive, on 12/15/2008, -0/+44I want to piss down the freshly slit throats of ANYONE who steals from somebody's home... ***** thieves can rot in hell.
Then again that's why I have to visit with Dr. Anderson every Saturday at 1. - n0ia, on 12/14/2008, -0/+43Because when you do the crime, you do the time.
How is the victim being an ass? He didn't steal an xbox.
"Oh, well you found your car, but the seats were ripped out... why are you pressing charges? You got your car back!" - greenlight2001, on 12/15/2008, -0/+43There is also this thing called a door lock. It's usually on the handle and allows you to lock the door when you leave to prevent people from rummaging through your *****.
- kashk5, on 12/15/2008, -0/+43Probably because the guy had more than one controller and the thief didn't bother looking for all of them
- InfinitySnatch, on 12/15/2008, -1/+42We can't all be brain geniuses.
- contradictator, on 12/14/2008, -1/+42Wassup Holmes?
- purzzzell, on 12/15/2008, -0/+41and get yourself thrown out of school?
yeah - not quite a good plan. - gaqua, on 12/14/2008, -0/+41Check your backyard for recent soil disturbances.
- MasterGrief, on 12/14/2008, -2/+43MY GAME SYSTEM IS BETTER THAN YOUR GAME SYSTEM
- Kriztov, on 12/14/2008, -8/+46Inversely, if the guy is in a position to steal the console, why'd he leave the controller?
- familynight, on 12/15/2008, -1/+38@Skootles: It's like a mathemagician.
- yoyoz, on 12/15/2008, -1/+36In case any 360 owners don't know, the xbox does have a K-slot in the back that allows you to chain the xbox to something using a Kensington lock. It may not stop someone with bolt cutters but will stop an opportunist thief walking into your room and just picking up your xbox (most laptops also have this security).
- Archaic1, on 12/15/2008, -0/+34Dugg for control-F'ing a guy on the interwebs

- w00dyt, on 12/14/2008, -0/+33I go to school at Missouri State. Apparently this kid got sufficient evidence for them to search the room or else it wouldn't have been possible.
- bagboyrebel, on 12/15/2008, -0/+33The glass is twice as big as necessary.
- inactive, on 12/14/2008, -0/+32"The resident assistant called the supervisor and told Ketsenburg that withif he provided sufficient proof that the Xbox was his, he would be able to take it back, he said. There was sufficient proof, so the Xbox was given back, he said.
Damn that's some of the worst "journalism" I've ever read. Even a middle school kid could probably do better. - familynight, on 12/15/2008, -0/+32Well, he stole an xbox from someone who lived in his own dorm. That's risking, at the very least, a semester's worth of tuition, time and energy for a ~$150 video game console (on eBay), and he didn't even grab all of the controllers. I'm guessing he isn't exactly a brain genius.
- Ajajadude, on 12/14/2008, -0/+30If you follow the link to the actual story, is says the kid provided sufficient proof of ownership before they gave him back the 360.
- fanclerks, on 12/14/2008, -1/+30I had mine stolen within 24 hours of buying it. I thought the same thing in regards to the console and my account, but unfortunately there's nothing they can do. They won't give you an IP or anything. You're basically on your own.
- mouthbreether, on 12/14/2008, -0/+28I think I'd rather pull an OJ and bum rush his room with some buddies.
- haikuFU, on 12/15/2008, -0/+27If it has blood on it, the police will help you.
