Subject: Need help rank is back to 1

iv played alot of halo 2 and was very proud of my low 30 ranking. it varied from 27 to my highest ever of 38. anyway i hadnt played in a few months due to work. i decided to play one night around july 6 or 7th and my rank on all games was back to a zero. i was pi$$ed no doubt. does anyone know whats going on ive gone long periods of time not playing and this has never hapened. can bungie restore my rank or am i doomed to play with all the 10 and 12 year olds till i can level up again.

Well you may have missed it but they reset ranks back in May and also there are two new maps available for download which are now free and are required to play matchmaking.

ok that explains it. i knew about and bought the maps when they first came out but i didnt know about the rank reset. ive been playing halo 2 for a year and a half on live and it has never been done that i can remember. how often and why do they do that. and do they do it to certain people. my buddy still has his ranking of the halo(dont know the number just emblem) and other buddy still has his comet. does it only affect lower ranks.

they probably still have their rank because they havent logged on just as long as you. because of all the cheating they had to reset the ranks. it sucks, i know, cheaters ruin it for everyone. i was only a 33, but very proud of it.

ya i was very proud of my rank. and we were playing the other day so they have been logged in, we were playing the other night. oh well rank lost must kill small kids online to get rank back up. i think its low rank discremenation(?spelling)

The rank reset affected everyone not just those with a low level and they are not very common maybe once evry two or three years. As for your buudy he must have played enoguh game to get his rank back up to what it was.
