Posted by: I Judge Bread I
I've had it before where my EXP won't go up or down at all and i got no message saying i was banned? Is this just a glitch?

My brother was achievement boosting with his friends a while ago and he spent 8 hours doing it, his friends got all their achievements and he didn't get one, he was EXP banned for a week that made me laugh.

Would that have affected me seeing as were on the same xbox?


This sounds like your brother recieved a console exp ban, so no account on your xbox will recieve any exp until the ban is up.

You'll be able to earn exp after the ban is up, untill then, you can blame your brother :)

Here is my story, for anyone wondering about the account vs console ban. I received a message that said this account is banned from gaining exp for two weeks. Two days later I received a similar message that said this console is banned from gaining exp for two weeks. Yesterday both of the ban's expired at the same time.

Don't worry you will not have serve extra time for a console ban. Also, the console ban first appeared when I tried logging in another account on my 360.

To you EXP boosters get a life please, do you enjoy messing the game up for everyone else ? Can't you boost in Lone wolves as it won't effect anyone else ?
I hate getting a booster on your team in MLG as it's really competitive as it is never mind with being a man down..

How the heck did you boost griffball that many games without getting banned? You got banned the next day after you boosted some more in rumble pit. WTF! You should of been the day before, you must of boosted like 200+exp in griffball. You should be banned permanently.

If some how on God's beautiful green earth you find why or how or what or who or something on why or what or who i got banned for that will be my closure. Until till then. You may have won the battle, but i guarntee you will NEVER win this war. II 3RiCH II

When I turn on my game at the main menu I get the message that states I am EXP banned. But when I hit "A" it pops up again. It says I am EXP banned for 2 weeks. But it pops up twice so does that mean I am banned for 4 weeks? My brother did EXP boost so I am not claiming innocence I am just wondering when I will be unbanned. 2 or 4 weeks

so my story is about this most recent double exp weekend which was grifball it was jan. 8th thru the 12th. i boosted during the weekend and after it was over on monday my xbox got permanently banned from matchmaking and my account also got permanetly banned too. in your post it says "if you boost exp you will get exp banned" i got a 2 week exp ban when i boosted when TU2 first came out and this grifball weekend was my second offense for exp boosting but i didnt get exp banned i got permanently banned from matchmaking? In your post it also says "if you get banned more than once your punishments will increase in severity as you get banned more times" does than mean you go from 2 week exp ban straight to a permanent ban like i did? most of my friends have been banned upwards to 4 times and their bans havent been more than 3 months. Im not saying i shouldnt be banned. i accept that. i should be but not permanently. i feel i should be treated like everyone else who gets exp banned for boosting exp for the second time.... a 2 week exp ban or a 3 month ban/exp ban

thanks for your time

I read your story along with others and their is just ONE thing I dont understand. WHY DO YOU CONTINUE TO BOOST LOL?!?! Your friends do it you do it and get banned for up to 3 months and dont care?? Sorry but thats very low on your part. Great way to play Halo 3, get banned 3+ times and continue to break the code. You should be Perma4lifebanned.

Obviously you didnt stop, would a month stop you? would a few weeks? No, most likely not.

A was to stop you from boosting again? Perm ban.

If you dont learn your lesson, you most likely never will, meaning the punishment has to be stronger, in your case, perm ban :)

how did we get banned and my friend didnt look here if you look he went from a coronal (406 exp) to a 5-star general after the grifball weekend and yet he never got banned
saying that we shouldnt of got banned he should of. So what im saying is that there are more people out there that boosted more than us and we get perm-banned and im saying that i understand its wrong to boost but i would of took a 1 thr 3 month ban for exp then perm-ban.

People who get belligerent about their ban, especially when it's justified, are just going to get themselves in more trouble.That sure is true my friend CANC3L FTW got in a fight with Shishka after he only got banned for a week (not smart just take it and shut up) and he got perm banned on his main account (right after I helped him get all of his campaign achievements) Then he made a fairley, "bad", picture about Shishka and sent it to him (even more stupid) and he got his file share Insta Banned . His bio is pretty bad too so he really is proof that if you argue with a Bungie employee.......Well your dumb

Hello bungie. I would like to appeal about a ban put on my account. In October of 2008 my xbox live gamertag was Hacked/Stolen from me. It was then called Impulse II. The day it was hacked the hacker used Microsoft points to change the gamertag to Call Me Noa. From Mid-October 2008 to January 13 2009 I did not have access to my account and was playing under I Zyphur I. The day my account was stolen I contacted Microsoft. I finally retrieved my original account thanks to Microsoft help on January 14 2009 at around 8pm Eastern. I have changed all my account information to my own & gamertag to x Zyphur x.
I went on to Halo 3 on my newly retrieved account and I see that I have been permanently banned from Matchmaking. I would like to get unbanned because I have never done anything against the Bungie rules. Anything that happened on the account from the October-January period was not me. One way I can prove this is that from what I know of bans it is your console that gets banned not just account. MY console is not banned, only that gamertag, I am still able to play on I Zyphur I. I have called Xbox to try to resolve this problem but they cannot do anything because it is only H3 servers the account is banned from not XBL. I still have the service number of the call to microsoft on the first day I saw my account was hacked and the day I got it back . I have tried to contact major members like shiska and frankie through BNet messages and xbl messages but have not had any response. Some people may ask why I dont just use the current one that works, it is because it expires next month while the newly retrieved account has live untill December. Please Help Me Get Back On Halo 3 Online. I Do Not Deserve This.

~Zyphur
