So since this guy wont post it here ill do it for him, can somebody from Bungie take a look and put this to rest since the thread he started is de-evolving

PRE LIVES!!!

hey i have got banned I am not saying I didn't do something bad I did so i get no exp for 2 weeks big deal. I have 1 question though if I get banned can I still get recon by getting all the annual achievements or not? Also what other ways can you get recon? Please reply I am a person that has cheated but I still want answers.

The List is not a happy place. If you’re on it, you’ll never have Recon. If we were to flip a switch one morning and unlock Recon on every 360 in the world, you would still not have it. People who are caught lying end up on The List. People who are caught cheating end up on The List. People who are banned from Matchmaking for any period of time are on The List. You don’t want to be on The List....


...It’s just easier to point out what won’t get you Recon, rather than what will. To be clear, the following:


Asking a Bungie Employee over XBL or Bungie.Net
Asking on the forums
Asking AT ALL
Repeating exactly or closely what previous people have done to get Recon
Lying
Cheating
Complimenting my figure
…Will NOT get you Recon. They will, however, earn you varying levels of ire, and two of those (Lying and Cheating) will get you on The List. And now that you know about The List, perhaps you should rethink your Recon strategy if you’ve been going about it the wrong way.

You do realize that list is irrelevant now that you can get Recon by getting all the vidmaster achievements from Halo 3, the Mythic Map Pack expansion, and finally Halo 3 Recon.

So do worry people you CAN get Recon.

OK i was in the middle of a MLG pit slayer game when i get kick out to have a message pops on my screen that says you have been banned from gaining experience for two week when i have never cheated in my life check my games http://www.bungie.net/stats/PlayerStatsHalo3.aspx?player=I%20 TM%20I but i cant even play custom games or even sign into xbox live on halo 3, this is stupid and childish bungie and i demand a explanation why i was banned and unban me.

  • 12.09.2008 6:01 PM PDT

Are you sure. Do the vid master achievements count as the "switch"?

Too Legit to Quit

I have a question. I know being banned by Bungie is different from being banned from XBL, however a while back (like months) I was banned for two weeks by XBL as a warning for "content". I think it was my motto, but im not sure. Does this effect me in any way for Halo and Bungie? Im sorry if this is a huge waste of time. Could you send me a PM if its important.

Thanks.

** This may be the wrong place for this but I wasnt sure. Sorry.

I am pretty sure the "If we'd give everyone recon" thing meant exactly this. Those on the list won't be getting it.

It was confirmed by Bungie in an interview with GameInformer that getting all of the vidmaster achievements will get you the Recon armor. Since the achievements themselves cannot be blocked anyone can get the armor. So if you really want Recon, go earn it and stop whinning about it on the forum. Personally I don't like the way the armor looks, but that is just my opinion.

You sir underestimate Bungies power!!! Death to the unbeliever!!!

I fall under this section. When the game first came out i went into a social rumble pit game three times with my friends and came in at least 1st - 3rd so i would get EXP. After that time it was never done by me or my account again... THEN! EIGHT!!!!! monthes later i go on vacation for 2 weeks. When i come back i turn on my xbox.. put in halo 3.. and a message pops up saying "my xbox consle has been banned for 2 weeks from halo3" After that message another one poped up saying "Your account has been permantly been banned from matchmaking!" I can give you about 50 gamertags of kids that "Boosted" all the to a 5 STAR GENERAL! that is about 5000 games they boosted in and never got suspended, banned anything. and now they are selling them for money.. I just wanna play halo 3 again. This is getting ridiculous. Oh, and by the way, Yoozel speficly told me to post here. Love,

That sucks eRich, it doesnt even seem like they're paying attention to this thread now...they've just got it up to keep ppl from posting in the regular forum. I wouldnt hold my breath if i were you as to finding a resolution...And yes i totally agree with you that the biggest offenders havent been caught. I can name at least 5 generals who have it admitted openly in their profiles that they boosted their 50 and many others that they'ev already sold or have for sale.

You can aquire recon through the achievements, unless bungie makes a rule stating you cannot.

Your ban from XBL has nothing to do with bungie, your halo 3 account is fine.
