how long does an exp ban last for


1st time offenders = 2 weeks.

After that only Bungie knows for sure, but it has been said that it will get worse for repeat offenders.

Shishka,

Please Shishka, review my case. Look at my posts on pages 57 and 58. I have done nothing wrong to my knowledge. Look at my argument. I can't manipulate my connection because of course my college control's my connection.

I don't get my I get a permanent ban before I even serve a 2 week ban? I mean it says I get a 1 week ban then I get another message saying I get a permanent ban for no reason.!

Please respond,

GT: AJM Ruler

Network manipulation. People sure do seem to drop a lot when you play. Beyond the thresholds of "just bad luck," to say the least.

Edit: Also, KP isn't at Bungie anymore, so I'm not sure what talking to him would do for you.

Why is it one of those moments? Shishka didn't even answer my question in my other post, and you didn't even comment on my other post, which is weird because it's totally your business....moron

I Guess
You have laggy
Connection aswell
This seems rather unlikely
For this amount
Thats rather unlikely

This was just on one page, I guess natwork manipulation would be used by your or a colliege.

Well, it is a small private college so it doesn't have the best network. There's plenty of kids in my dorm who play MM and they don't get banned even though they have lag, so why did I get banned for having a bad connection? I know that my ping is good a little over half the time, but I stick it out and deal with it and don't leave. In the matches that I play, people leave early all the time, it drives me nuts, they're losing, so they leave, and then I get banned for having a poor connection? I thought that was one of the things that people don't get banned for.

Most of those matches were started, but people quit early when they're down 3v2, 4v3, etc. The last link you posted, it was actually 4v2 with my team down two people because they quit early. The two bottom people in that game (ULTIMATEGAMR85 and HaPPySn1P3R07), quit about halfway through the game when the score was 26 - 6. GirlsCanPlayToo quit with just a few kills left in the game, and SATKIN56 stuck it out and played the whole game. That was actually one of the few games on a variation of Snowbound that nobody was lagging. One of the main reasons me and Janus won by that much was that we stuck together and played as a team, plus, I've seen Janus get 37 snipes in one Shotty Snipes match, so he's pretty good. I believe it is at least a second account for him if not more than that.

The first match you referenced, I think one of my teammates were kicked because of lag, while the two others quit because they each got killed. They left me 2v1, and I stuck it out. They had one guy that quit because they weren't winning in a 2v1.

Just because I don't quit a match because it takes 15 seconds longer to start doesn't mean that I cheat, it just means that I am patient enough to wait a little while for the game to start. Most of the people that I play with, they see the game is taking slightly longer to start than normal, and they leave. One person may be kicked (or none at all, it just takes a little longer than normal), and then the match will start, leaving it 2v4, or something else uneven. I even played a game 4v1 at one point, just because I didn't feel like giving up. If I would've quit then would the four people on the other team get kicked because of network manipulation or some other such reason because they won by default?

The following things will not result in a visit from the banhammer:

* Lag (poor or intermittent network performance).
* Occasional disconnects due to inconsistent network conditions.
* Playing with the same group of friends over and over using the party system as long as this is not for the purpose of boosting.
* Losing games over and over again as long as this is not for the purpose of boosting.
* Winning games over and over again as long as this is not for the purpose of boosting.
* Being polite, courteous and refraining from hate-speech and racial slurs.


So the Banhammer doesn't follow its own rules? It kicks becuase of lag now too?

(Cut Short)


Private college? They are usually the ones with the best connection they can afford and supplie, although im also guessing its shared among hundereds of laptops,computers and xbox360's or so you claim.

Lag doesn not affect 8/10 games even with a terrible connection, trust me on this one, my connections bad.
With the halo 3 community, i can garantee they wont just randomly quit a game due to abit of lag during one game.
Accasional lag isnt bad and the player(s) wont be banned but having severar lag and people disconnecting 1 out of 3 games is highly suspicous and in your case, bannable.

Please stop with the excuses, im supprised the theory of '' my pet did it '' hasnt come up yet...

Well, sorry for being angry that after buying a 12 month subscription (as a poor college student that is a lot of money to me), I get banned for something that it says isn't a bannable offense. I also don't want to be labeled as a cheater as I don't and that is just offensive to me.

I'm sorry if the fact that I go to a college that gives me a sub par internet connection is wrong on my part. Maybe the college can't provide a very good connection, as it's in the middle of nowhere in Northwest Ohio. If anybody knows anything about Northwest Ohio, there's nothing there except corn fields. They label intersections of two state routes as towns, even if it's two houses, they're that desperate to have some kind of civilization.

From what I'm getting, the reason I got banned all goes down to me having a bad connection. That is still not a valid reason for banning according to the code of conduct.

Don't forget that some of those games there is the possibility of another person having connection problems, not just me. Another reason is people leaving early, as even in games without lag I've seen many people do.

On a side note (maybe I should have asked this earlier), what exactly is network manipulation? If I'm going to be banned for some random reason, then I might as well know what it is I'm getting accused of doing.

93% of statistics are lies. Formerly Xfire Grunt. Unfortunately, you can't change the WLID for your BNET account, so I had to create an alternate account. My other WLID was spam city (and it was my e-mail account too).

You know the only real way you can get banned for laggy connection is if you have Satellite internet ~ which is breaking XBL TOU (they ask for WIRED DSL Connection). At least thats what I heard

Otherwise there is a 99.9% chance you are not telling thew whole story. But only a Bungie Employee can really help.

Why do people boost? there is no point. All it proves is that the player is to nooby to level normally. i think people that boost deserve to be banned and should deal with the consequences.

Why would you get banned if you have no raisin? I mean, you could have just eaten the grapes before they turned to raisins.

I was not sure were to post this, is this the right place?
I got permanently banned from matchmaking today and I have no idea why. I have not boosted since I received a temporary ban for boosting. Is there any way of finding out why I got banned, and/or can I get unbanned. I do'nt think I have done anything to deserve a ban. My GT is tP I Nadez I check out my games. I was given a temporary ban in early October and have not boosted since. Please reply.

I'm still curious as to why Bungie reset every person's rank. Along with that, I can't play a 16-player Big Team Slayer.

If this isn't the right place to nag, I'd appreciate being pointed in the right direction.


They didnt reset everyones rank, they gave each playlist its own rank, and since it was impossible to check everyones game history and give them exp for certain playlists, the playlist's exp was set at 0.

BTB (BTS) required the legendary map pack, do you have this?

No, I don't have the Legendary Map Pack, I don't even have 1 XBox Live Point. As for the playlists, why also were the 16-player lists removed? Was it too much lag altogether?
