This only affects Xbox 360 Demo Requests, requests for other content can continue as normal as there is a separate team for that.
As you may have noticed recently, the requests forum has got out of hand, with the number of requests being made heavily outnumbering the number of requests completed. There was only around 4 dedicated members who kept uploading 360 Demos, and for different reasons they aren't as active as they once were. (Some have gone back to University)
I know with a couple of the users, they gave up as they started getting abuse from members on threads (even as far as them getting called lazy) and constant PM's demanding demos be done and to be honest, I understand why they don't help out as much. Ripping a demo and spending hours uploading it was time consuming work and they weren't paid to do it. When doing someone a favour turns around and the people helping gets abuse, that's just wrong.
So here's how it currently is. Unless some other members go from making requests to actually helping by uploading them, as it stands the current team of uploaders are busy, they won't stop uploading all together, but the time they have will be spent focusing on the more exclusive stuff (demos for example which are exclusive for some reason, like the Left 4 Dead 2 Demo or Resident Evil). For people who are just requesting demos for old games which have been out on Xbox Live for a few months, honestly I doubt your request will be forfilled. Think of this as a shift in priority's.
Any questions, just reply to this.

and again if you are not banned from live I have no problem trying to help you get connected.
