Thanks: Gave 70, Got 13 | Can you tell if someone is on LIVE if they appear offline?
Is there any means of telling if someone is on line even if they have their preferences set to show off line?

yes, the ways to tell are:
1) look at their last achievements unlocked, this will change if they unlock any whilst connected to xbox live. It has the last 4/5 achievements on their profile.
2) If you go to the persons profile it will tell u the last game they played, so if they put in another game it will change.
3) If its COD5 or games that records wins/loses/kills etc. Go to leaderboards, write down their stats and check it 5/10mins later
Not an ideal way to check if their online, but better than nothing.

the 360 brother(sister)hood rule book states:
24> though shalt not grass on your fellow gamers unless they glitch or they are abusive
Jobs are transitory my friend, Xbox is for life
