so with matchmaking having problems does that also affect EXP too?


Last games i played there was major diconnecting, some games not recieving exp, problems finding games.

All will be better soon hopefully.

If accessive amount of quiting was done then the gamertag would be flagged, if the person continued to quit games that further action might be taken into consideration.

EXP Penalties: -152

With that many games quit you will be ok, as long as it doesnt increase to 600 within the next day or so :P

Is it just a problem with xbox live? Lately ive been seeing a lot of people not getting exp. Myself included. I win a few games and don't get any exp. Then i keep playing and a few games later i'll get exp for like 2 wins. Then i'll stop getting exp again.. It comes and goes. What is going on?

so you can get banned for excessively quitting? That might be why I was banned... Why would you get banned for quitting? That's absurd. I mean I quit like 15 games in a row because it wasn't the map or mode I wanted to play. Whats wrong with quitting?

Although just because you didnt like the map, you might have ruined your teams experiance by being a player down ( An example if you were quiting a team game)

Also a lot of quiting would flag you upon the system as a negetive exp booster.

There is currently a problem with Xboxlive and Bungies Matchmaking, the best are trying to solve it as we speak, ive played games recieved some exp, and others gained nothing, both games were still entertaining though :)

Would just be a guess on my behalf, i dont understand the functing of the banhammer myself, quiting down doesnt nessecary mean down to 0 exp or below, could either mean 'de-ranking'.

Most of the time I quit because I HATE the gametype I'm playing - usually swords or hammereizit. I have a not-so-great connection I think, so I always lose in any sort of melee match, and it's just not any fun at all. I'd rather find a game where I actually have a fighting chance.

My connections not so great either, wireless with more than me using it is dis-connecting warzone, with game types (even for my hatred towards boundless,team rockets,snowbound,isolation) I just veto these maps, if they are not vitoed I still play them :)

Hello,

Recently I was just banned, and I assume it was from playing games with people over Xbox LIVE along with guests so we could get some of the new achievements. While I didn't know it was an offense at the time, I completely understand it is now that I've read the rules. In hindsight, it seemed too good to be true, and I should have read the rules and regulations.

I am not here to complain about the ban, I accept it since I deserve it for cheating, but had a question about the ban period. I had 2 messages, once saying my account had been banned from receiving exp, and one saying my console had been banned from receiving exp. As Shiska stated in the first post, first time bans last for two weeks, this has gotten my hopes up again because I hope that also applies to me, but does it since I got the second notification that my console was banned? Or is that just there so that you can't use a second account for the 2 week period?

I repeat again, I am not complaining about the ban, just clarifying the terms. I thank you in advance for a reply. I am truly, very sorry, and if the ban is lifted in 2 weeks, then fantastic, and a thousand thank-you's. If not, then I will accept my mistake and move on. I apologize to all of the bungie staff and community, since I just became one of the filth that ruin the online experience.

Regards,

Mulligan RX

Don't be so hard on yourself, Mulligan. You're not filth because you tried to get achievements. I myself received the 2 week (hopefully) ban. I think if this was going to be such an issue they should have left achievement-getting in the ranked playlists. Seems to make more sense than banning thousands of people. Maybe I'm crazy.

I died once...I respawned 5 seconds later, seeking revenge!!!

if you get banned on B-net will you be also banned from matchmaking?

Bah, I was playing DLC FFA. I didn't negate much from anyones experience there. I'm looking for an oddball match to try and get the alas poor yorick achievement. And no I was not going to boost the achievement but get it legitimately.

Hello,
I have also gottin the 2 week ban from bungie. I now know my mistake and I am truely sorry for it. But I have a few questions directed mostly to the staff that I would like (hopefully) answered. Agian I take full charge for my actions on halo 3 and bungie.net, so let me just say I am sorry.
Ok question one:
For the people that do not have a bungie accounts, will they still get ban from getting exp, even though they probably have no idea about the rules about getting the new achievements?

Question two:
I personally think this is wrong to do, but why make achievements for social matchs if you can pair up with your buddies and have a "chance" to actually get gamerpoints that most people already have...?

Question three (last):
(This is sooo just asking your oppinion, NOT me being stupid or dumb)
But do you think that if you ban people from actually cheating on getting your achievements, or ban SOME people that had been accused of cheating, don't you think a lot of people will stop playing halo, and start playing other games that are coming out over the holidays?

.... If you could send me a message that would be great, if not thats cool too
Sinserly,
UnleashedRegret

I think i have EXP ban but i didn't receive any massage from bungie or microsoft about ban!
I didn't cheat didn't insult noone so i really doesn't deserve this ban and plzz look into it. thx

  • 10.03.2008 12:42 AM PDT

I just received a ban for spending 2 hours trying to get the oddball kill achievement. Yes, I spent 2 hours trying to get an oddball game that never came up and was banned because of it. But you know what? I'm not mad. I'm actually thankful. Thankful that this is just a temporary ban and that Bungie is kind enough to give me a second chance.
