I believe fileshare bans are permanent, and there are no appeals.

when i got up this morning i noticed i got a file share ban(permanently) but i dont know why and if this will continue onto reach?

  • 09.05.2010 11:58 AM PDT

The ban will not carry over to reach.

  • 09.05.2010 12:02 PM PDT

if Your Perm Banned from your fileshare when Halo reach comes you well be Un'Banned but theres a short leash probation that stays with you till it's taken off.
Hopefully that clear'd up things about Banned Fileshare's

  • 09.06.2010 8:42 PM PDT

So if I got EXP banned will that carry over into reach? or what?

  • 09.07.2010 5:05 PM PDT

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

It won't carry over to reach. Just don't quit in reach, or else you will get banned really fast.

  • 09.07.2010 5:20 PM PDT

Well that's good to know, but also bad to know thank you JacobGRocks.

also how are you sure of that?

And for that matter, not saying I dont trust the people on this forum but Where would I go to send bungie a message asking this. jw

Ok, my wife got our accounts EXP banned today while I was at work, trying to get medals/achievements. I'm not contesting the EXP ban in Halo 3, it is what it is. My bigger concern is that the ban will extend over to Reach when it's released next week. If someone can let me know I'd appreciate it.

  • 09.07.2010 7:41 PM PDT

Where did that ban thread go...

As far as anyone in the community is aware, bans from halo/reach are totally different, and you should'nt be banned on reach if you were on halo.

(Although bungie still might hate you and decided your fate forever)

yeah Reach is a completely new game, so I doubt it'd carry over.

got my EXP 2 week ban last night just trying to find the assembly map with some friends. ugh. that stupid map never comes up.

  • 09.10.2010 7:39 AM PDT

It's kinda funny cuz i got that all the time when I got 2 week exp banned

  • 09.10.2010 8:40 PM PDT

i have a question can u please help me with this... i got exp point banned and i tried to looked up why it would of happend and i think i was boostin by accident... to prevent this from happening again can you please explain what boosting it.. me and my gf and sister play they dont like alot of maps so they dont like them we just quit and go find a game we like. me and my sister play social multi team and we only play the slater ones any other ones we will quit out... ive only ever played 17 rank matches is there anything in this behavior that is boosting.. and if not why do you think i was exp point banned??? thanks for you opinion

  • 09.16.2010 5:02 PM PDT

i do have a reply to your banhammer. i recently got banned from boosting halo 3 achievements the other night with several friends. i recently called microsoft and they told me to post here and explain my situation, they also told me if i get banned a 3rd time they will take action. first off the ban here is against microsofts terms of service. in no way were we cheating, modding or breaking any game mode or service, we were boosting achievements as the group we are in are achievement boosters. this ban is comepletely unfair as there are communities dedicated to gaining achievements. just so happens several achievements are tied to experience. achievement hunters dont ruin the game in any way. so this is my appeal. we did not cheat, as we played legitametly last nite and got achievements along the way but this ban is agaisnt my contract i signed with microsoft and not bungie. thank you for your time and consideration.

  • 09.18.2010 3:37 PM PDT

Could one get EXP banned from simply doing Daily Challenges on Halo Reach? Isn't that what they're for? EXP? Earning 0 Credits for simply playing the game is not a good feeling, especially when you DO follow the rules.

You were banned fairly. It happens when boosting achievements. The banhammer sees your achievement boosting as EXP boosting since a team wins and loses over and over.

You are correct that achievement boosting is not bannable. Because one team or the other gained EXP and the other looks like it was deranking.

That is why you are banned, not for boosting achievements.
