No high level Switch knowledge, but for the love of god - will those threads never stop? And why put them in the Emulation, HB and Software projects thread? Just to farm eyeballs? Not even in here can you get by without service request heckling.
Also - despite not having high level switch knowledge all of your questions can be answered by applying a little critical thinking.
Are all people using RCM getting banned? No.
Are some people only using RCM getting banned? Probably no.
Could you be banned for using RCM? Small theoretical chance.
Are you loosing something by updating to 6.0.0? Not if you update in a way that will not burn fuses, because you can downgrade. But yes if you do it "the normal way". (Chance of softmod on <= 4.1.0.)
If I restore a nand backup - will my switch be back to the innitial state? Well - yes.
But what about super secret magic sauce, where they can still ban me? Low likelyhood.
But can you tell me? No - because, well - the thing with code you cant read in its entirety (for example because Nintendo made it, and isnt sharing source) is, that you cant read it in its entirety. You are not dealing with certainties, you are handling probabilities.
And for the love of *expletive* - stop delegating risk assessments you have to make, to a random guy on the internet. This is the new exorcism of the internet age. Pater, could you please absolve me from having the risk of doing something, by telling me that its ok? Speak your olden words of absolution, and I'll do as you please... Dear other guy on the internet, take my responsibility away... Take my risk from me... In two weeks time, when no one cares about what that person or another said, I probably will have forgotten who made me do something as well - and by then, hopefully things didnt break.
Because I was freely serviced by someone with high level knowledge. Or so he said.
Also for the love of *expletive* stop telling us the story, where you would want to play - but then, you dont know, if you shoudl update, because you have fomo - but don't know why, because I've heard it 50 times in this forum already. And I'm not even exaggerating.
If I have to hear one more 13-35 year old tell me, that he want to get support to know, if he should update, because he wants to play game - but doesnt know if he should, I'll write you your own "Capn obvious - max lazy" table card for you to use at any family or friends gathering in the future.
Also there is risk in downgrading. (Not much, but there always is.) So have at it.
Also - anyone who finds an actual factual error in this post - please pitch in. Because as I said, so far, this is only applied logic.
-
If you react more positively to a little theoretical exercise, lets try this one.
Lets say N bans 50% of people that do X - so X has a high likelyhood of you getting banned.
Lets say you dont do X, but only Y - does that mean you don't get banned? Does that mean you also get banned?
Lets say you do X, does that mean you get banned?
Lets say X is a combination of things you dont know, but the likelyhood of 50% bans still persists. Can anyone outside of N say what causes a ban?
Lets say many people congregate together and tell us after they did X, they got banned. Lets say X is a combination of things -lets say it differs between people. What does this tell us?
Lets say X is a moving target that changes over time.
Lets say its your birthday, and high level expert has allowed you to change the 50% value to 80%. Feel better now?
