Alright guys, we all know that multiple people have been banned due to Banhammer V2...but this really needs to be rethought, or dulled down. You can believe what you want, but I do have anger issues and OCD, and do try to keep my KD ratio up, so if I end up getting killed by some rediculous method, I quit out of the game early...(Ex - Ninja Punch...Double Teaming...etc, all in LW's).
Play better, and Halo is a game of luck as well. You can't tell me that getting every single snipe in your life was pure skill...so why is it wrong that it balances itself out? Don't be an ass and quit out, cause that -blam!-s over people like me, and I'll send bad feedback for it. And not to mention you didn't read this close enough..."Skill or XP Boosting, deleveling, cheating or any other type of unsociable and unsportsmanlike behavior."

Is it my fault that I have anger issues and OCD? No, it runs in my family on my dad's side.
First off...yes it is your fault. Because as sad and unfortunate as that is, you are using it as an excuse, and more importantly people dislike being yelled at. It really doesn't matter why...the point is that you would be a detriment to THEIR fun, and any excuse to that is moot.

Now for God sakes, have I done anything terrible? Hardly, I've been playing LW's strictly just to get some new people to talk to. In fact, a good 33-50% of the people I play with each day end up quitting out. So why be one of those types of people? Just becasue a minority does it doesn't mean you should...thats the reason Halo 2 cheating got so rampant.


Now we all have our reasons for quitting out, and I've already said that I get angrily easily. So let me just tell you the reason's I quit out - ... And all of those were bad reasons...bite the bullet and learn to play better...its that simple of a reason because its true. And if its to daunting a task...then pray you get lucky more often. Halo was never all skill to begin with.

Now guys, I hardly see why I should be punished because I have a condition that I can't control. I already go to therapy and counciling, but there's not much I can do otherwise, unless somebody can help me with my anger... Look at you getting banned as a way of saying grow up faster so that you can learn to behave yourself. Its a maturity issue thats at stake here

Now to all of you saying I'm lieing, let's see my defense ... WE get it...your richer then most people your age...whoopde-blam!-do. Thats not a defense...thats a bank record.

Now let's see the reasons I have been banned for
-Supposed boosting / quitting out of games
uhhh...you admitted to quitting. That makes it not supposedly any more....

^--- because I have the hereditary issue... ^---Still quitting...or still unsportsmanlike conduct...take your pick

Now really Bungie, I have hereditary anger issues, OCD, Type 1 Diabeties (diagnosed last year, in hospital for 7 days), and just because I quit out of games because I have something I can't help, I get blamed. I have absolutely NO BENEFIT for quitting, and you ban me? And now you have diabetes too....as unfortunate as that is...it doesn't really matter in your defense...

Now, let's look at this information -

I have played 1042 MM games

-I've played out 746 games
-I've quit out of 297 games

-I've played out 71.5% of my total games
-I've quit out of 28.5% of my total games, and quit out of 71 Lone Wolves games, which is actually only 6.8% of my total games that I've quit out of (for Lone Wolves)
20% is bad...25% is terrible...but in between 1/4 to 1/3 of the games you play you have a chance of quitting, which is a bannable offense if enough people leave you feedback for it...well no -blam!- you were banned. Why are you complaining? Its in the rules that quiting is a bannable offence by it being very unsportsmanlike conduct. QED

Thank you...no flaming please

-An Evil Koala
Before you get mad... flame has a lot of random insults...this is just tough love. *hugs*

Well this is cool. Thought I'd never be in here. Oh well. I was banned from the file share for using someones creation. They gave me a warning, I took it off. The next morning its a perm ban. To me, I don't really mind, because
a)My xbox is always freezing and I'm about to get a new one and
b)I never really use the fileshare.
Just want to know the WHY portion of it. Thats all. I do not doubt you had very good reasoning behind it. Its REALLY bad if you download stuff from peoples fileshare guys, they can just straight up ban the crap out of ya. I have been a fan of Halo 3 for a while, but well...this might just top the cake for this game.
Look, I understand the ban of cheaters, the people who actually make these maps. But to the people who merely download these creations? If thats bannable, then this game is getting ridiculous. I see call of duty in my future...

From your thread last night I can safely say you deserve it. Nonetheless you are right you shouldn't just download stuff from random people, and when you do you should look for obvious mods. Bungie has made it clear modded content will result in a fileshare ban it is your fault for not taking this seriously about the obviously modded clock map and whatever modded content you decided to download after. Whether you disregarded the warnings or just figured it was ok you were not critical enough.

I got a 1 week matchmaking ban on my xbox 360 last week Monday. I go onto matchmaking today (Tuesday) and guess what? - i'm still banned. Is there any explanation for this Bungie?

If you've been EXP banned, and you believe yourself to be innocent, post here. But first, let's get some nonsense out of the way:


"Total Halo 3 Players Smashed by the Banhammer, for any reason, ever: 57,854."

Well I guess thats nearly 60,000 cases of nonsense dealt with so far. Great job guys, keep up the good work...my faith in Halo 3 is returning!

Shishka

I have had my account forever with a clean record. Although everyone may have made a couple of mistakes prior to TU2, I have been a great player who has legitly earned his XP and if you noticed here in my Rating History that I never quit any games. Ever. Look at me Bungie.net and H3 matchmaking, sure I have played over 9000 some odd games on one account that I kept because I never cheated, affliated with cheaters, majorly boosted, played with standbyers, give into bs by joining someone's private game and getting hacked, I never did any of that. I played a bunch of Lone Wolves and now I have a 48 in it whenever 49 then 50. I never lose in LW, I only get 1st thru 3rd. Look, the point is, I play a lot, I'm a good player who doesn't manipulate the game. MY CREDIBILITY IS NOT QUESTIONABLE /caps

My question:

Why doesn't, Bungie, or you, or whomever controls your ticker, or advisors, simply just inform people using the Bungie ticker, which is, the box you see with words while you wait for other players in match making, that things we have been seeing since Halo 2. Why haven't you just sucked it up and said, "No boosting EXP, no connection manipulation, no quitting excessively, no affliating with cheaters or unconductlike manners, and a system to report cheaters. develop a system of moderator super cheater hunter unit that tracks down cheaters and pwns them, hire b.net moderators and yourself and you can improve match making so much. I'm tired of not being able to report when I get screwed over. Tagent yes.

Just inform people over H3 over XBL specifically what not to do, all H3 players are far from babies and noobs they know what boosting exp, connection manipulation, and quitting a lot. everyone gets -blam!- once in a while here so we all know. so just tell everyone that hey, we know, not just on B.NET but over XBL read it or get pwned or reported. We need to band together my brothers and stop cheating! and there is no more excuses. Unleash hell, please. Let the loyal players prevail we are sick of being shat on by bs other players. Tell everyone they can't quit, they can't boost exp, they can't manipulate connection and if they do they will be reported and banned. FOREVER.

my question turned into an answer. keep it real :)

  • 03.24.2009 6:17 PM PDT

WarmBed-

Usually the console gets banned as well as the GT. Don't test the limits and stop boosting so you don't get permanently banned from matchmaking.

I Heart Alesana-

Ignorance is not an excuse. Modded content gets you a permanent ban from the fileshare. Warnings are frequent and evident.

tankzor MkII-

What are you complaining about exaclty? Bungie has given us plenty of warning (even over Xbox Live) and a system to go after the boosters, quitters, modders, etc.

They still haven't been specific enough over XBL saying "Cheating is being auto-detected." Isn't specific enough. I want to see, "Don't boost EXP, manipulate connection, quit excessively, or you will be banned from H3 MM and XBL." That's what it should say and that will stop all this confusion about what we can't and cannot do. If you can't or don't do that, oh well. At least I know I'm safe. :)

There have been tons of warnings regarding bans and breaking the terms of service and getting banned. I mean if you are sitting there quitting or messing about with your connection you know deep down thats not right.....

I am chuffed to bits people are getting banned for this sort of behaviour and to say that more warnings are needed is rubbish in my opinion as if you are adoing something that feels wrong, chances are it is wrong....so don't do it !

Or people can use common sense. All those manipulations are not activities that people should be practicing without Bungie having to tell you its wrong. It's not hard to play the way you are supposed to play. Bungie has also done it's part in directing those inclined to do so to come here and find out the "rules" for themselves. This is enough.

Well then have fun with stupid threads about people getting banned and having to deal with unjustified banning of players and all this bs cuz im out of this topic it's redonkulous how everyone KNOWS that every other XBL player is a complete moron is a nearly almost always fairly a novice the gaming online or any other type of noob-bags! So yeah, we should just BLANTLY tell them already not to boost exp, manipulate connection, quit excessively, affliate with cheaters or other players who support bad conduct, and to report cheaters to a REAL group who will deal with them, not Shishka's automated slot machine of fail. As far as I can see, the real cheaters get away all the time. Making new accounts getting new numbers for their boxes, etc.

All I'm trying to say is, players are noobs, they don't understand these things. We should just blatantly tell people what not to do because sometimes that's what they need to hear! All this banning bannadoeu banhoodwink banning could've been avoided if a simple messages over the H3 xbox live talking box that you see when you're waiting for a match said, "Don't boost EXP, don't manipulate connection, don't quit excessively, don't affliate with cheaters or players who support bad conduct in anyway, or you will be reported, caught, and banned. Forever"

Sometimes you need to lay down the rules even if it sounds harsh. Unfortunately this is a business and it is set up for you to get into those kind of things. When you get banned, when you mess up, when you box is -blam!-, you have to buy new products to play again. So enjoy yourselves, I play by the rules but live by my own. And I won't be buying your product twice again, never again I have your game on my HDD and it runs fine. Just your game though no one elses. There's a secret behind that too. :D

So lol at you red ringers of death peace IM OUT! :)

Bungie
Dear fans, we are sorry to say that when don't care if your disks mess up, if your box dies, or if you have to get a new box just to play XBL, if you arent SMART ENOUGH to go on BUNGIE.NETNET NET and read our weekly updates that say you not to do what you're doing, you shouldnt know that we are secretly watching waiting for you to -blam!- up. lol we want you disks to break lol. also we arent ever going to specificly state what you can and cannot do over XBL because people should know better and ya enjoy your ban lol

Goodbye, people aren't as dumb as you would think and the warnings are adequate. People shouldn't need to have things spelled out for them. It is common sense to play the game as it is meant to be played without manipulating any part of whether it be EXP, connection, or whatever. The terms agreed to just to play over live stipulates not cheating. All you have mentioned is pretty basic cheating and easy to avoid.
