Subject: The only "omg I gut EXP banned for NO RAISON" thread

I remember the Oddball game. I got punched in the face by my friends. I don't understand why you mentioned that.

I was waiting for my friends to come to my house and I forgot to log out the other controllers . . .
Wow! There's an original one! No one's used the "I left the controllers logged in by mistake" excuse/lie before. A little advice though; it'd be more believable if you had said your friends just left rather than that you were waiting for them to come to your house.

You know what you did, and you got caught.

So you shouldn't have killed your guest in a social matchmaking game... Maybe even quit out the game instead of boosting for EXP and Medals.

Lesson learned, just don't do it again. Excuses are a waste of time.

i think, that "my little bro was playing with them on while i was at a friends" would be a much better excuse. how do you forget you have controllers on when the guests show up while you search for games and are in the game with you getting killed? seriously, either you're a worse liar than i am, or you're retarded. seriously! ill go out on a wing and say its the first one

I've had the same thing happen, accept for a bunch of birds started playing MLG, and ranked me up. Weird concidences hay?

Nice try bucko, but this wont get you anywhere.

Edit: When you go afk, your xbox recognizes when you not there, and it wont let you go into matchmaking, oops, was I suppost to say that out loud?

My friend admitted that he did it. The rules says that I still get banned. I am going to his house with my knife.

Why would somebody lie on this topic? You are a bit crazy.

People actually get banned from this thats a surprise i see cheats lags network manips all the time and i see these guys day in day out in social games so im guessing the ban is for ranked or you must just be poor at finding the cheats?

So you left your controllers on, and then watched the game?

Makes your story even more unbelivable, thanks =]

With boosting, that is easier to catch then network manipulation.

With Network manipulations, a few games have to be recorded (I'd guess from 5-8 from other posted threads and responses)

A few games wouldnt be recorded as network manipulation as this could simple be a coincidence with lag consistancy on matchmaking.

This thread is proof that action is being taken, the continuous threads still being created is more proof.

  • 01.22.2009 9:52 AM PDT

I came, I found a sniper rifle. Lots of people died.

I feel rather sheepish to be honest, for in a moment of idiocy, I boosted for achievements. I have, since then, earned said achievements, but still feel guilty about it. Just thought I'd better own up. Please don't ban me. I haven't, and won't do it again. I think my match records will prove so. Cheers, and sorry to all the legit players of Halo 3.

When life gives you lemons..... BUILD A LEMON BOMB!!!!

Does getting EXP banned put you on the no recon list?


I have not been EXP banned, just a question.

  • 01.23.2009 12:36 PM PDT

im not sure if im banned but for the last few games i dont think iv been getting xp, can u tell me if i am, and if i am, tell me y because im 100% sure ive done nothing wrong

  • 01.23.2009 7:59 PM PDT

Caboose: If I was bitten by one, does that mean I'll turn into one?

Church: Shut up Caboose.

Caboose: BLAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRG....

Church: SHUT..UP..CABOOSE!

A message would have popped up on your screen had you gotten a ban. I'm thinking it's just Bungies servers being slow again in posting your stats. It's happened to everybody and still does sometimes. Give it a day to catch up.

Every time for 2 weeks when i played halo it would say the account and console was banned from earning experience 4 2 weeks. It should show it at the main menu

  • 01.23.2009 10:39 PM PDT

^^ Haha yup. First the "This account has been banned for earning experience" notice, then the "this console has been banned from earning experience." and it did it EVERY time you logged into halo. Sad thing is I had some of my best matches during the Ban, so I will never get experience for them. Serves me right for cheating the system though. It definetely isn't worth it to boost. Now I just laugh when I stumble into a group of boosters in Rumble Pit.

Has anyone ever considered an automated ban logging bot? Just so we all know for certain what we did, when it occurred, and when it'll be lifted.

Like any time someone gets banned it'll post in a thread something like: "bwwaaaa just got a 2 week ban for exp boosting and being an overall douche bag."

If there was a permanent record in a closed thread I think it'd take away the need for this thread.

However embarrsed a person may be getting banned (Or any other emotions for that matter), they still have a right not to be named.
