Senor Shiska,

I have read all your responses/posts and what I have seen is a bit startling. I have 2 games that seem similar to games that you have posted. Every game I was playing everyone was asking "who wants to get achievements" yada yada.. I did get achievements but so did a lot of people that day. . . I may have just banned myself..........

Is banadu only for non EXP bans than?

Im sure in DLC FFA if the medals are listed as 8 or more overkills in the game, or 8 or more medals earned in one game (medals for the achievements) is flagged upon the systems.

Step One: Turn on your 360
Step Two: Put 5-6 heavy blankets on the xbox while it is on
Step Three: Wait 4-5 hours
Step Four: Leave house for that time
Step Five: And when you come back (insert somthing here)!!

You got banned for boosting 10 DLC FFA games :)

Sorry, Shishka. I will be wiser next time I play. Including me, most people that were banned were trying to get achievements, and that is against the rules. I'm currently in rehab for it.
I apologize, do you accept?
Thanks for not giving us a harsher punishment.
-MM

BTW, you should make a thread saying "I'm sorry that I cheated." For those of us who know what we did was wrong.

What about the other 'complain' thread? That one was funny...

Yeah! Why not keep them both?

I was banned due to being in games with my freinds who were attempting to get social medals. (full desc. here) > Link, yo.


I understand and have accepted why i was banned. I apologize for my discretion in not realising that getting medals for your social chest was considered a bannable cheating offence now.

It is my only request that the staff of bungie make it more obvious what is, and what isnt cheating. I mean, heck, i know there must have been thousands of players deserving bans with the new acheivements coming out. I played some dlc ffa alone and idk how many of the games I entered were filled with people asking if "we can do acheivements"

I'm sure none of those players knew they could be banned for it.

I had no idea either. As ive already said, i was, albeit totally unintentionally boosting, and i deserve to be punished for that, but i would never have put myself in this situation had i known that wat i was doing could get me a ban. A little more information is all im asking.

It might even get rid if some of this headache of a situation were in now. Thanks for reading.

Bannable offenses during gameplay on halo 3 (off the top of my head before i log for tonight)

Exp Boosting.
Achievement Boosting.
Host Flooding/Booting.
Moderated Content.
Neg Exp Boosting.
Just really playing games and glitching the system (skill,exp,connection) is bannable.

[Thread cut. This isn't a "will this get me banned?" thread. It's a "why did I get banned?" thread. If you have not already been EXP banned, you probably shouldn't be posting here. -S]


Fair enough.

But I wouldn't have posted that question if there wasn't reason to. Can you point me to a list of bannable behaviour? Or where should I have posted my question? All I saw in the first post was a couple points with "but not limited to..." before it. I'd like to get an answer to my question. I don't want to find out after it has already happened, even though I brought up the possibility with you beforehand. So please point me to where I can find the answer.


http://www.bungie.net/ban

it was on the frontpage


I saw that already. It lists a couple reasons, but also says "including, but not limited to"...

So I wanted to see a list of ALL reasons for a ban so that I could be aware of them. The mod deleted my first post regarding my activities which I was wanting to find out if I was in jeopardy. I think this is a serious issue, of course, but my question could have been handled with a bit more tact and information rather than simply deleting my post and brushing the question to the side, which isn't very helpful.

I think my question was entirely relevant because answering it properly will inform those who read this thread to understand ALL the rules and not just rules "including, but not limited to"....

Your reply was a little confusing, but i think i catch the gist of it. Thank you for your reply, but it doesnt really go anywhere with getting done what i have in mind. Players looking to find out what is against the rules will not come here and read your post. i know now what is against the rules, and most of that i already did know was against the rules.

Cookie of chaos, it really says in the forum rules "No forum copping." Just leave people be that are complaining, you don't need to point out all of their mistakes.

This really has nothing to do with what i m here for, but do you actually know the definition of moderated?

Saying someone has moderated content doesnt really make any sense. But what do i know lol.

word

why does bungie care if people are messing with a meaningless number that people are just making even more meaningless?

btw, way to quote futurama in the title
