Well it doesn't say i'm hiding stuff it says i'm on a shared computer and get constantly kicked off. I can't remember which Bungie employee said that because it was a while ago before I found this website. I started coming to this website a little bit ago because I wasn't unbanned like that person said. I didn't do any boosting to get my rank up or anything of that sort. (I honestly don't care about my rank all I care about is achievements and being able to play social with my friends.)


Unnamed employee that you can't verify doesn't help you. Likely just some random person. I'll re-iterate cookie's question. Do you have any other accounts on your HDD? Have you recovered your GT on other x-boxes? Do you know anybody else on your friends list that is also permanently banned fro matchmaking?

I wasnt exp boosting. I gained two exp. I dont see how that can be considered boosting. I didnt win the games. We played the games, and i didnt win most of them. I want to see in the terms of service that i agreed to where what i did was wrong. Does this also mean that people should be banned for sharing skulls since you basically just let the other person with you get the achievement? Because that could be considered cheating too since you didnt actually find it yourself.


EXP boosting is not just your net gain of EXP what about the games you lost that your friends gained EXP? Boosting has been deemed cheating by Bungie and through the ToS and CoC that you agreed to constitutes your banning. You are fighting an impossibly uphill battle you can't possibly win. You had enough games that got flagged by the banning system so you got banned end of story. It isn't a mere numbers game that you are allowed to "boost" -X- amount of games. It has several unnamed factors. Again, you were flagged and banned, don't do it again.

The best you can do is PM Achronos and Shishka and see if they can help you.

Well I did and I asked Shisaka to come here and look at my post. If I did do something please tell me what I did so I can't/won't do it again. If you just tell me what I did if I did something I won't do it ever again if I get unbanned. Also I will be able to buy Mythic/Legendary!!!

If you are asking me to unban you that is in no way within my power. Chances are you won't get unbanned but at least you'll know the reason why

I got a message saying I was banned for 2 weeks. All I was doing was playing with a few friends today and then the people in there house and my house decided to leave and left the controllers there and we carried on playing against each other. Yeah we did kill the guests if we saw them but we didn't intentionally boost or anything we just wanted to have fun against each other without annoying little kids screaming down the mic.

I'm not to bothered about not getting EXP but I would like it lifted.

Also next time I try to play online with just my friends will I get banned for that too or should I just go ahead and never play with them again?

EDIT: Also I just realized that you can get banned for having a poor connection, So if I get teamed up with a load of Aussies and lag out I can get banned?

Sorry for repeating myself, but I love forging and file share is one of the main reasons I play H3.

It doesn't matter if you intended to boost or not you did and your ban will not get lifted and no you don't get banned for a bad connection, ever.

Well that certainly does suck. A warning would have been more appropriate as I don't really understand what I've done wrong but ok thanks.

The warnings were there if you took notice, most likely banned for modded content.

According to friends I was, I had the picture that shows the date, time and the viewer's tag. I didn't make it, and I didn't know it was modded. Just that perma ban seems kinda harsh for my first offence don't ya think?

Any method of appealing this lifetime sentence of loneliness?

Usually they remove content first and if you put any more up they ban you. Personally, I don't think its harsh Bungie made it clear they were cracking down hardcore on it. Anyways, you can try and PM an employee but don't hold your breath.

100% this was my first offence. If I was stupid enough to do it again I deserve to be banned. And whilst ignorance doesn't grant immunity, it certainly counts for something in this case. Thanks for the advice though.

i dont get it. why ban a person for TWO FREAKING WEEKS for trying to get achivements with friends? look i dont care if i personally got banned. but all the others i played with didnt. so wheres the fairness in that? if i really wanted to cheat, i would. i mean come on. i have no life other then hanging with friends on halo and haveing fun. if you guys serisously take this achievment thing so seriously. why dont you post it on halo when you first get on. alot of ppl dont read or want to read the terms and crap like that. im just really miffed that bungie ban's sertin ppl for "exp boosting" and not the whole party. if your going to ban someone. ban the whole pt and crap. its not fair. and as for bungie. two weeks is steap. way to steap for the achievment hunting. i can see if its for ppl accually exp boosting. but just for achivments come on. give me a break. man alive.

Don't be surprised if your friends end up banned as well. Two weeks is not steep its a fairly good time off. You said if you really wanted to cheat you would...well...you did cheat. Sounds totally fair to me.
