Provide your tag for the community to see, this could show the reason or not.

The two week ban is very merciful considering they can ban your total matchmaking experiance.

I was EXP banned for boosting my friends for achievements. I only did it two games, but whatever. No 7 on 7 for me.

Really though, Bungie. This is way too strict. You should make it to where if they boost a certain amount of times. You lost me to COD4 now. And really...I hate COD4. This ban system is really -blam!- up, but whatever.


Why should you have advantage over other people? is that fair? Im sure if call of duty had online achivements, strict rules would be enforced.

What has a rank got to do with an online forum? Im not flaming im stating the truth towards this thread.

Take your rants else were please.

Why do you think they didn't put online achievements? They didn't want the -blam!- of banning people. They bought the game, they get to play. That's why there should be Campaign only achievements.

well boosting is bad for the community because if everyone boosted ppl would just get bored of playing matchmaking after a while....because sooner or later EVERYONE will get to the highest rank in halo3 and EVERYONE will have matchmaking maxed and custom games would be boring maybye in like 3 years or something but theres always new players i guess

It's possible that the servers from xbl to bungie arnt fully running but whom knows but the employees themselves, ill give it a check.

If this problem still occurs im guessing its XBL/Bungie problems either end.

keeeriips! sombody tell me one other game that will bann you if you get with friends or helpers to get achievements because i cant think of any. Probally because Xbox Live dose not consider this a bannable offense. Bungie screwed up.

By the by, isnt bungie boosting HALO by giving it 1750 achievement points? i thought the max aloud was 1250 with DLC. I guess BUNGIE is aloud to break the rules.

Prophet94

I can not get experience in matchmaking and I am not banned. I have not recieved any message saying that I have been banned. If I am banned then I would like to know what I got banned for and I would like a message saying that I got banned.

My gamertag is: Prophet94

why is the annual acheivemenet worth nothing? is it past the limit? if so why didnt u lower one worth 50 and make it 25 so annual would be worth something besides a cool thing on your acheivements list might be a bit off topic but...meh

many other games had multiple DLC packs, why do their achievments stop at 1250?

DLC Packs with extended maps/campaign doesnt always have new achivements, its all dependant towards microsoft and the business to include new achivements, some games dont allocate any achivements towards their DLC.

An example is chrome hounds, over 10 DLC's and no included achivements, untill enough information is given between the deal between microsoft and the business, you wont know why the achivements are given for how ever many DLC's.

hey there my account is a corkonian and i think i have beem xp banned and this may be because of boosting but how am i banned for playin games with my bros new account..does this mean that if i create a new account for halo that i must play on my own until i have reached the level of my friends(stupid?) or make my friends also make new accounts in order to play with them..i think this new banning system is completely unfair and if bungie want to stop boosters then they should only allow 1 account per person or some other way..also why is it only now that everybody is getting banned and why didnt they enforce this a long time ago? absolutley the biggest mistake bungie has ever made and are goin to lose alot of people over this..can anyone explain this to me?

If bungie doesn't want people to boost, then they should set social and ranked party limits to the teams size and have lone people go in for free for all, having this stupid banhammer is ruiing the game for inoscent people and is losing business for bungie.
