But how can someone tell a honest win and a ex boost apart? Why is it shiska plainly talks to the community like he is far superior in general.


Basically, when 3 people get running riots, perfections, and killtaculars while 5 guests go 0 for 21, people get banned.

We mouth the vilest sacrament
And adhere to these tacit skirmishes
All for one day ideal and saffron-drenched
We ate each other's hearts out of serving dishes

*Raises Hand* I HAVE A QUESTION!

After looking through past weekly updates, it said that if you are caught cheating in any way, you are banned from Recon Armor. I was just recently banned for achievement boosting.

Does this mean no Recon for me? Can I still unlock it with the VidMasters?


I think the answer to this is yes, you can't get recon.


No, they said this to those who Standby/host boot. a simple 2 week ban won't get your recon permissions taken.

The reason you still lose EXP for losing your connection is that there's nothing stopping a person from say, unplugging their router and making it look like an accident.

Wrong the Update said if you are caught participating in cheating in any form. Nonetheless, it has not been clarified if EXP bans but people on "the list" for no Recon.

Bungie Pentathlon - who actually cares ?

Posted by: Help Me BR
if i was in a party of 8 and im the only one who got banned tell me y


The others will get what's coming too them....tell me...what was the point in playing with boosters I really am keen to know

In regards to not getting recon if you were caught cheating and ruining most people's enjoyment of Halo 3 then I think you SHOULD be banned from getting it....not 100% sure on Bungie's stance on this one

Whats the big deal about acheivment boosting? It doesnt give you any kind of advantage over anybody. It seems kinda foolish to ban people just for trying to get a bit more gamerscore. Gamerscore doesnt realy mean anything.

It's a bit foolish to break rules, but people still do it..

Ok... so I've been banned from Matchmaking because i guess i had modded content and it said for one month when i logged on. So i waited a month....and then a month and two day...three days, and now ive been banned for a month and 4-5 days... WHY AM I STILL BANNED FFS! I just got the new mythic maps when i got banned and i havent been able to play them and i really want to know why im still banned.... HERE

  • 05.14.2009 5:24 PM PDT

All Hail The Crimson King. Tank Dempsey Lives On!

Me too, but I got banned permanently for having modded content I downloaded from someone else. I got permanently from both file share and matchmaking. They even told me they can't ban me for having modded content, they said you could only be banned from matchmaking permanently for modding your internet to make you win. My friend even downloaded the same content and he didn't get banned from matchmaking....

Shishka if I was to insult you in a matchmaking game and then to play six games in which I booted in none and knew no one in the party, then friended one of the them, would you use that as a scape goat to ban me?

WHY AM I STILL BANNED FFS


You were most likely given the ban on a later date, either way, i'm sure it will end soon, give or take a few days.
