wait

so i installed the homebrew channel, just to fool around, just to see what it was all about (run some homebrew apps, use some emulators)

I have never hacked or even thought about hacking or anything.

So now if I play MKwii online, i can get banned for simply having the homebrew channel?



that's obnoxious...

Look at what the error states, you get banned if you cheat online.

 

from what i read, nintendo looks for a file on your wii that is present when the homebrew channel is installed, and they ban you if it is present

 

that's not confirmed. probably just a rumour
