To be honest this thread shouldnt even be necessary, if you were banned Bungie got it right and didnt ban the wrong person, they take careful deliberation before banning people.


but i was banned 4 not even playing, the other guy was boosting, maybe i deserve the ban but he should at least get it as well

Haha, you got banned for no Raison! Sorry, you did get banned for a reason, you were boosting. You were just being a mug and letting your friends boost first.

Sorry, I'm not banned. I just came here to mock the boosters and cheaters that ruin MM that still insist that they were unfairly banned. Maybe some people on here were unfairly banned. Doubt it though.

Say hi to Shiska for me guys. And the banhammer. Actually, for this sort of ignorance, I'll probably get the Ban.

It was in good taste!

I would like to know why I was banned simply because a friend of mine on XBL stole an account (who it was is not important)
I know I was banned for this because after I played a game with the friend that took the account everyone in that game had become banned.
I did not aid him or associate with him at all during the process of him taking the account, and me being banned is simply saying i'm "guilty by association" which in my opinion is unjust, am I right?
Overall I just don't think I should be banned for something somebody else did, I can understand that taking an account is serious, but it's not my fault, right?

I want proof of where it says that going into what some people call "achievement matches" is cheating. Until I'm shown that, because I can't find it, I can't see any reason why I'd be banned. And from what I've read and heard, Bungie notiies you if you've been banned just likethey gave a notice about the new update and the Keep It Clean trailer, and guess what?- I NEVER GOT ONE OF THOSE MESSAGES!!!!!!! I want toknow when, if not immediately, I am going to be unbanned, and EXACTLY why I've been banned.

Church: Shut up Caboose.

Caboose: BLAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRG....

Church: SHUT..UP..CABOOSE!

Quoted from the Weekly Update:

The Blood-caked Super Hammer
We hinted at this in the past, and discussed it more directly last week, but the Banhammer has a new edge to it, and its effectiveness has left Jedi reeling from the feeling of thousands of voices shouting at once and then falling silent. If you are unfamiliar with the Banhammer, I strongly urge you to read http://www.bungie.net/ban. The newest touches on the Banhammer include the ability to recognize behavior consistent with cheating and apply a ban to the gamertags and 360s responsible. Let's clear that up because a lot of people have misconceptions about what the banhammer is doing.

1. We're not banning you for winning.
The Banhammer observes behavior, not results. You're not going to get banned because you won 30 games in a row and got experience for each of those games. If you aren't cheating, you can continue to destroy your opponents without worry. If you are cheating, throwing a game or two isn't going to save you from the Banhammer's ire.

2. We're not banning you for playing with your friends.
We can tell when someone's actually using the controllers you've plugged into your 360. More importantly, we can tell when someone isn't. Filling a party with guests that are not actual players and then going into social matchmaking is not okay. If you don't want to play with randomly matched players, go in with a full party of friends (not the invisible kind), or don't go in at all.

3. We ban for behavior, not intent.
It doesn't matter to us whether you were trying to get Alas Poor Yorick or if you were trying to get your general in DLC FFA. Boosting is not acceptable.

4. Take it up with your brother.
If an account is caught EXP boosting, the entire 360 is banned from EXP for two weeks. We will not un-ban someone because their brother, or cousin, or neighbor, or roommate, or grandma was the one that did the cheating. All users share equal responsibility.

5. Quitting: Only in moderation
There are plenty of totally valid reasons to quit. For example, if you're on fire. Or, if your mother is on fire. Or, even if your dog is setting your mother on fire. However, these things come with statutes of limitations. For quitting, if you do it so often that we recognize it as bad behavior, you're risking the wrath of the Banhammer.

6. We don't mess around with Ranked.
If you're boosting in ranked, you don't just get an EXP ban: You get a temporary ban from matchmaking, meaning you can ONLY play custom games or co-op until your ban has ended.

7. Booters, standbyers: You're next.
You know that warning that's been in Matchmaking for some time? The one that says "Cheating is being autodetected?" It wasn't kidding. We've got your behaviors down, too. If you wish to continue playing Halo online, I suggest you knock off the crap. The punishment coming your way is far more severe than what boosters are getting.

If You Get Banned...
Way to go. Don't mean to sound cruel, but if you were banned it was likely your own fault. If someone else on your machine was who got banned, you'll want to give them a stern talking to, but don't take it up with us. You're welcome to try to contest the ban by either messaging me discreetly on Bungie.net or posting to the stickied thread in the Halo 3 forum, but keep in mind we are just going to look at your stats and point out to you what you did wrong. Nobody (despite some of the self righteous that are trying to suggest otherwise) have been "wrongfully" banned or banned for "no reason." With that out of the way, keep in mind that if you're banned for boosting in Social, you are banned specifically from earning EXP for two weeks. That's the first offense. The second offense is... Harsh. How harsh? I'll put it this way: don't get banned a second time.


Just in some people don't read the front page.

Yeah then how do you explain how I never got a ban notice, I can't earn EXP in Doubles, but I could get EXP in Team Snipers??????? Hmmmmmmm??????? And if "achievement matches" are considered cheating, the achievements should have been made (1)for only ranked liked the old ones and (2) not obtainable if playing an "achievment match" and the game should detect those by seeing if players are standing idle in one place. I think that Bungie blammed up with the banhammer in their first year and they're trying to suck people into it by making achievements available in social matches to lure people into their little trap. The only people who should be banned are second accounters, standbyers, modders, and excessive quitters. End of story please have some common sense and make rules clearer and sent them to everyone when they log onto Halo 3 Bungie!!!!!!!

Well, I have an exp ban. i was trying to get the new achivement's and was trying for an oddball game with a friend, we played one game with some other guy's who said to join after to find an oddball game so we did. one of them mentioned guest to hurry up the prosecc of it and then him and his friend said they have no more controller's and asked me and my friend. so like a ijit i did, (please note i WAS fully aware of exp boosting but did not know this is the way to do it). every time we had a match he told us one person has to get the all the kills and so it went on and i got the exp ban, not sure if i was the only one cause there was some one wityh a guest. any hoo i didnt know i was doing it but i was doing it so im not trying to get out of it. i know now not to but i think the hammer should be changed to nab all people involved if they are partyed as i got the exp ban yet the person who said get soem guest's in as we dont have any controllers spare did not get the ban to my knowledge. check the games yes its clear we where boosting, my first time offence but it was after the update and i come on bungie.net weekly so i would not of perpsly boosted for the first time just after the update. needless to say i was rather shocked and confused when i got the ban but soon clicked on, when my friend came online he didnt have one wich just confused me abit.

i AM NOT trying to get out of this.

just wanted to know if there was to be any changes to people who are party'ed with booster's?? shishka any info on that matter???

Ash

p.s excuse the grammer, long day.


bump!

i just want to know about people in the guilty party that do not have guest's, BUT are still as big a part of boosting as the person with the guest's? can some one shed some light on this? I feel it is wrong to exp ban people that are boosting with out banning the people who are boosting with them minus the fact they have guest's.

any one?

Ash.
