I know i was banned and probably should have been even though i was just trying to fill up my social medal chest, but can u just un-ban me and i just wont do it again? I've learned my lesson. you can ban me for longer if i do it again?


No. Serve your time. And if you get caught again, it'll be worse for you.

I actually have a question of why there is an exp ban in the first place becasue from what I have witnessed during my time playing this game people with insanely higher exp are always trash talked and made fun of because the stupidly high exp they have....is it simply to keep them from getting their feelings hurt or something? becasue other than that I dont know why or how it hurts anyone they play against....unless high exp makes the other team not able to rank up or something but I dont know that much on how the system works....could someone who knows the logic behind all this please explain.....

Thanks

Quite a few people have been asking about how they figure out if they're banned or not, and it's been answered well. I understand that users get a pop up message on their 360.. is there a way to make a message available on their B.net page as well? I was just curious after seeing a few people, not really in this thread, but the other "gun to the head" thread, mention that they hadn't been on their machine lately and weren't sure if they were going to power up to a ban or not. Would it be possible for you to receive a message through your Bungie profile as well? I was just curious... might stop some of the other posts as well....

You said that you wouldn't be able to get the 7 on 7 if you have been EXP banned... What if you have 7 exp in a playlist? You still won't be able to get it that day?

Hi, i made a thread about this, but after reading some post it say'd All exp boosting after TU2 will result in a 2 week exp ban, i wasn't online for 2 months, came online to the halo 3 main menu saying my 360 account has been banned, and my 360 console has been banned, could you find the reason for this, or was it my previous actions that got me banned? Because i 100% admit, i boosted grifball over the last summer.

Yes but what if you are in a game where people help eachother for achivements and you just happen to be next to them at the time, wouldn't a person get banned for just being at the wrong place at the wrong time and looking suspisious?

The best way not to get banned:

DON'T CHEAT!

They seem to be able to examine game data and tell if you were actually trying or just standing around...

@Darkspyder

So what you just happened to stand next to some people while someone was trying to get two for one or something? Also I don't think you'll be banned for being in the same party if you were legitimately playing because I was in a party where one guy was trying to get four of us to stand together and another one where another guy was trying to get two for one but most of us played legitimately and took advantage of their lack of killing to pick up some easier kills.

why does bungie care if people are messing with a meaningless number that people are just making even more meaningless?

btw, way to quote futurama in the title


If was as meaningless as you'd like to imply, people wouldn't "mess" with it.


I agree, if people are willing to buy a General account, then it means something to them. Shishka is a genius. maybe.......

hi im a 50 5 star general. im 38 years old. i have no life. i live in my parents basement. and play halo. lol keep hating kids!!!
I DESTROY 2nd ACCOUNT NOOOBS!!!!
LONE WOLVES- 50
TEAM SLAYER- 50
TEAM DOUBLES- 50
MLG- 48
SNIPERS- 48

My friend (GT: Trevor4hire ) said that he was banned for playing 3 games in a row by winning by more than 20 kills in each game. he said he did this in rumble pit and is now saying that bungie has screwed up the banning system. i would just like to prove him wrong and find out the real reason he got banned so he will stop his complaining.

Well I've learned my leason from this. I`ve been EXP banned but I know I deserve it and will take the penelty for my actions. The funny part is now I can`t get the 7 on 7 until the 7th of Nov. :`( I`m never Achievement Boosting again

  • 09.29.2008 5:18 PM PDT

i was afraid of being banned over my 2000+ games played because over time I've lost a little more than 100exp.

I fall under category 1, but the irony is that I (and my friends) were able to get every achievement except poor yorick. oh, well. I didn't really care about the exp, but this thread says what i did was wrong.

the oly thing i'm comfused about is that I recieved the ban message 3 times, and then a console exp ban. Intentional or mistake?

so Shishka what is bungie doing about people working togetter earning Achievements
4 example u go in to a social macth 2 find 3 or 4 players working 2 getter to earn Achievements at the other 4 or 5 players expence from earning xp so what do u do every lobby u enter people r asking to boost Achievements how is bungie putting the banhammer on this it looks like legit games its so blam. does any one realy care about people who want to help each other out i really dont unless ur doing it at a other persons expence come on if u really r banding people 4 what u call boosting theres 99 of every 100 players that boost so if the bandhammer is really coming down then bungie is not doing there job ur only banding the ones who help each other out and not the ones that boost at other players expence from earning xp

An account on your 360, Deception 73, was EXP banned for boosting:
