Bungie, could you possibly unban us just for the one day Oct.7 and add another day onto our sentence because i really don't wany to miss that achievment and i'm sorry if I have ever boosted, i honestly don't remember doing so but if your banhammer says I did then it must be correct, please consider this, thank you.

I hope I am able to post my MM ban problem here, cause I couldn't find any other thread fro it and didn't want to bother the mods with PM's...

I just tried signing in today and found out that XBL is down. like everyone else. so I finally am able to sign on only to find out that my console is 2 week MM banned and my gamertag is perma-banned, I have no idea why this is so, if you guys could resolve it for me that would be awesome. I do however have a feeling that it is just a glitch that had to do with the XBL servers being down as I do not recall doing anything that would have me receive this ban.

Thank you.


So you did actully recieve the ban message, let me work my magic :)

If i have done some boosting, it must have happened a long time ago which makes me getting banned now to be quite bull sht because you can't ban someone for something that they didn't know thy couldn't do or for something they did before it was law.

Do you have any other accounts on your xbox, since none of the achivements (new ones) are aquired it cannot be an achivement boosting ban, with no games being boosted (within the last month of games)

A bungie employee would have to look thurther into why you were banned, sorry.

no, i did no boosting once the banhammer came on, i may have done a little before but as soon as i knew it was no longer allowed, i stopped but I still get banned once the banhammer came on, they should give some warning before.

A month consol ban, they are usually dealed towards host booting or moderating something, or with microsoft actully banning your gamertag (motto,bio, ect) for something innapropriate.

are you supposed to get the message directly after the match you boosted?

  • 10.01.2008 1:57 PM PDT

O hai. My name is Zuko, Lord of the Bumper Cars.

To Shishka,

I have been EXP banned as of Friday Sept. 26 for a sad and pathetic attempt to get Yorik. For that, I sincerly apologize. My question is this: Does the EXP ban put all offenders on a certain "No Recieve" list?

I do have one of my friend's account on there, but it does not work anymore because he recovered it to his console again, but how would that even matter as it is THIS account that is banned? And yes, that is why I posted here to have bungie take a look at it... :/

Ok, to clear this up, it is a one month matchmaking console ban, not an XBL ban... and also I have not been banned recently (besides these from bungie) for any reason.

Yep, when you sign on, and go into halo 3 and, say, matchmaking, you will receive a pop-up telling you that you are in fact banned.

Bungie employees are probably, most likely busy sorting the systems out.
If you friends account was banned, the bans are consol bans, this means the xbox360 itself is banned not the gamertags. If you could provide the gamertag of your friend ....

sure thing, he doesn't play much as he doesn't have Halo 3, he mostly plays GOW, his GT is xDr Gonzo

but as I said, it is MY account which is banned, so that means that the infraction was under MY account.
