We Love Bungie!
Whatever you do modders, don't even think about it! Can't the forge tools be enough? There are limitless possibilities with the new foundry fully customizable map!
Custom Matches are DESIGNED to be modified, Speed at 300 and Gravity at 50 (I LOVE bungie for adding this) But NOT tampered with on your little computer screen typing away new lines of code.

Accept the game, or the game will not accept you.

-Banhammers
-Dangers of Modding
-RROD

Play it safe and DON'T MOD!


My question is,
if you are recording machinimas, can i still use that neutral position thing? (Not in matchmaking, i meant like in customs and local)
I mean; it does nothing really except lower your weapon. (digitalph33r does it)
Filming purposes only?

So I guess Bungie bans whoever they want and let people like this http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=775044 906&player=l%20EnsiferuM%20l go. Proving what I said about the slippery slope we are all on. Things are going to get out of hand and eventually what remains of the Halo Community will leave because of this ridiculous Banhammer.

I don't understand all these people are getting banned either from boosting in the past or are boosting in the present right? We'll why has Bungie neglected to ban the hardcore boosters, who say that they are the best at Halo? Case in point: Rippinheads, he's #1 on Halocharts.com & he has been boosting since he started playing Halo 3. I don't want to sound like a tattle tell but isn't boosting wrong in all accounts whether you are good at halo or not? It seems to me that some people get the skiphammer instead of the banhammer just because of there Halo status. I guess once again its who you know, not what you know, that lets you get way with breaking the rules. It just sucks to see the little guy get the shaft, while the so called big dog gets the glory.

Bungie, if you read this look up Rippinheads Game History & you can clearly see boosting in Rumble Pit & Team Snipers double exp on multiple game pages.

Thats just 1 page of his boosting & he hasn't even stopped gaining exp. AKA No Banhammer activity from Bungie.


All your post shows is the fact that any and all boosting done prior to the update in the banhammer is not detected and will not get you banned.

Anyway, who really cares what HCS rippinheads has? we all know for a fact he boosted for everything so it makes everything he has 100% worthless.

That is not the point the point is that it is complete BULL-blam!- that bungie picks and chooses who they ban. Blacklist me if you want I dont really care but I will not suck up to anyone just so that I might get Recon like alot of people seem to do on this forum. Those who legitimately cheat and are not punished just goes to show how Bungie wants to treat us.

I am guessing your just being pissy because you are one of the many that don't have the balls to stand up for what you think is right or wrong.

  • 10.13.2008 8:27 PM PDT

Okay, I will. You are wrong.

OH so I am wrong for calling out the BS that is trying to be shoved down our throats. By threatening to exp ban us if we boost for meaningless achievements yet the people that did it from day one and continue to get away with it is just wrong and you are a fool for believing that. If no one will stand up for themselves then I will.

So in my last game two of the people on the other team just stood there to try to boost for exp. So I went to town on them and came away with some great stats for my record. I ask you this is that considered boosting?

Eventually those people will go down for exploiting the game. That's the beauty of the ban-hammer, you can't escape it unless you are playing the game fairly.

Actually you are wrong. It's if you were in a party of friends and played the game out fairly, as in all of you trying to win without manipulating games.. Any games that consist of boosting the way you did will get you banned. You guys cheated so you can all get exp.

I've got a friend who's been EXP boosting since about a month after Halo 3 came out... and all he got was a two week suspension. He's continued since the day his suspension was over and hopefully the banhammer will hit him harder soon. I'm sick of him saying everyone's garbage yet if he actually played he'd probably be a level twelve. He doesn't even deserve to have the damn game.

Yet, getting all pissy int his thread will get you nowhere, man.

  • 10.14.2008 5:01 AM PDT

This guy should be banned: XxXBOOST50XxX - he has -72 EXP

omg !!!
yea, you`re right....
but hey guys....there is no reason to cheat on halo3, it just ruins the gaming experience for everyone in the match....

it`s right by bungie to invent the Banhammer.

Don't spam this thread. I've already blacklisted two people for stupid "first post" and "first page" comments. If you have nothing to contribute to the topic of the thread, do the smart thing and don't post.

What if everybody just decided to get the full ban 100,000's of players just said "hey !@#$ it"
what then and it caught on and more and more people started to get banned until everyone was banned except for a few select nerds from the nerdery it be like a giant boycott

i'm not saying to do this just asking a what if

other than that is there a way to just play the game you know just to "play it " with out the fear of getting banned because of someone else or to turn off exp and achievements cause i don't care about that i just want to play the game

You will not get banned for this. Unless you repeatedly purposely played more games with this guy. Or if you had guest in the game not moving as well.

also is bungie banning every body so they can't blay halo 3 so they have to buy halo 3 recon

No. If you are perma banned on Halo 3 then you will also be perma banned on Halo 3 Recon. Halo 3 Recon has nothing to do with the banhammer.

Halo 3 Recon does not have its own unique mutliplayer. It may or may not come with Halo 3 multiplayer functionality so you don't have to switch disks to play, but regardless, it is the same system. Get banned on one, get banned on the other.
