There is just something magical about leaning your head back, letting your eyes roll into the back of your head, and taking a piss while floating in the swimming pool.

The group I joined (through a friend on my friends list) was apprently boosting, because as I was joining them they had just gotten the message they were all banned. I said it served them right. I hate -blam!- cheaters.

So, i just got banned today. What was going on was me and another character(whose name i wont say) both had 2 guests with us. we wanted to play and still get xp, so what we did was go into rumble pit with the 6 of us and play like that. after about 4 games him and i both got notices that we were being xp banned. now, if we arent allowed to do this then i understand, but if its allowed then i think we deserve to be un-banned

火 Conquer like the fire
山 Steady as the mountain

The only thing I really have against the banhammer is that it is a very slippery slope everyone is on. Because my biggest fear is that things will get so out of hand that the "Banhammer" will start exp. banning people just for having good games, or playing with guests that may not be as good of a player as the host. I mean what's next you can't play through the campaign with a few friends because you may technically be boosting?

So your implying that it's Bungie's fault that your account got stolen?

How is it a slippery slope? Bungie isn't banning people if they play with bad guests; they're banning when people sign in dormant guest accounts. You have absolutely nothing to worry about as long as the guests you have signed in actually play the game.

That's correct; your first offense is a two week EXP suspension.

Master Chief is my daddy.

Shishka,
I don't think this an EXP ban case, but my cousin got this message while in the custom game lobby.

"Unable to start because a player in your party is restricted from playing user-created content."

What we are trying to figure out is what did he do to recieve this strange message. His gamertag is DannyTOKYO. Thanks for your time Shishka.

Lol

A song that some guy made. *ahem*

I love you Bungie because you first loved me.
Long ago you gave us all the game Halo CE,.
Loved to time my weapons and kill with just 3 shots.
But apparently you forgot. Halo CE! The best game I'm convinced.
Halo CE unique in the sense that we've got bullets that actually register.
Dragonspear and Ogre 1. Thank you Bungie thanks for Halo 1.

Then you gave us Halo 2 and we all got real mad.
The SMG was a travesty and the aim assist was sad.
But we decided to deal with it and used another gun.
Turning off the duel wielding made H2 somewhat fun.
Halo 2! A decent game at best. Halo 2! tolerable I guess.
Because we got double shots and midship. Gunshot, Foulacy, and Boo.
Thank you Bungie Thanks for Halo 2.

Now you give us Halo 3 and I wanna cry.
MC's new footwork make me wanna die. The maps are big as stadiums
and my BR is broke. Halo 3! The worst in history. Halo 3! sold my 360.
Because I'm sick of King of the Hill on Construct it's the worst gametype I've ever seen.
Thank you Bungie thanks for Halo 3.

Why does my BR not 4 shot... That would be the netcode.
Why can't I stand playing SWAT... Elite hit boxes I think.
Can I have back my money? If I beg and plea on my knees??

The Halo Series.... seems it is no more.
The Halo Series.... RIP 2004
They won't put Halo 1 on Live now I have to live with XBC
Thank you Bungie for stealing my money.

Shishka:
I have once been banned from exp, for a perfectly justified reason and i would like to know ( i know this isnt general forum) but today i came across a bunch of guest boosters in a match which i was forced into them with they had 7 people on their team and i was the only 1 that could connect and instead of quiting and being put at risk to the quitting side of the banhammer i stayed and finsihed the match, does this mean i will be receiving another ban? or will nothing happen. here is the link to the match>>>http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=783765 735&player=A%20Sporkette
by the way i had NEVER met those people before this was my first encounter with them and my last.
thanks for replying (if you do)

Check Out my FileShare.
I was once on Bungie Faves. (Feb.7-15)
I'd like to know why I can't see the signatures of others of myself on the forum. I have made favs once, 7777 campaign kills, and I helped bring modders down when they were at their strongest

Yay, but I still think the hammer is weak, I still see mods everywhere, boosters covering up their tracks, and raining cookies in the shape of the number......8! Fix it Bungie fix it

He did say if anyone on the box was cheating then the whole box would be banned.

And as a suggestion, you should add a thing so you can avoid for cheating as well. I've seen these guys who are empty and free kills in several matches. I kill them of course, but it's not alot of fun when it's you and 1 other real person in a 6 player match. It's kinda boring, tbh. What really sucks is when it's a team match and they are all just wastes and you get killed so bad because only 2 people are playing when it should be 6 or 12, ya know?
