If you use stand-by, you deserve to be banned. Stop crying...

This answers a lot of questions! I was banned, but am not today! I was quite disappointed last night when I found my account banned permenantly. I called Xbox live, I emailed Bungie, and I even created another account. Depression was setting in. But everything is good now. Thank you for informing us of this problem. It is greatly appreciated. Rock on Bungie!

Somehow I feel a player whose clan is called I uSeStAnDbY should swallow all the justice that's served up to them and ask for seconds! You may as well paint a large bullseye on your butt and beg the nice people at Bungie to ban-hammer you back into the stone age while you're at it! I can't believe you are crying about 'fairness'. You need to take a long look in a shatter-proof mirror my friend.

I just don't understand the purpose of rank-whoring. Sure, you'll get a high ranking but you did it without the talent to back it up rendering it utterly meaningless. When all is said and done you'll end up having non-event 'battle of the standby' games with people just as talentless as yourself.

What kind of acclaim do you hope to achieve? At the end of the day, real-life comes down to two things: girls and money. You're not winning any cash prizes here and you certainly aren't gonna bag any chicks. Maybe you're looking for some other kind of 'geek-love'? It's the 21st century after all...

that was funny samuari... I agree dont complain about others being fair if you cant be fair... And I don't understand about the whole get stand-by'ed back thing. I've been stand-byed and I never did it back. Everybody doesn't use standby. Cheating is utterly pointless and un-honorable. Ghetto is probably a little kid who is begging his parents to unground him and promising to never do it again. How many times have those promises been broken.

Well i myself agree with samurai about the banning the cheaters and stanbyers thing. theres no way in hell anyone can get a flag out of a base when theres 4 people standing right next to it. as for your friends, how do you know they havnt cheated? were you there with them every time they played halo? mabye it was sumone using there account and that person cheated. or mabye they spouted off too many racial slurs.

Its called strategy and a rocket launcher... If there a 4 ppl guarding the flag, 4 ppl need to try and get the flag. And also Zaeea, they have passwords on your live account so people can't just play others accounts. If you give people access to your live, dont complain about what happens. Sorry if I seem like Im flaming, I dont mean to.

Frankly, I'm a little disappointed in Bungie's handling of this situation. I am one of the folks who were mistakenly banned. The error message I got originally was very condescending, it actually said, "you did something bad" and scolded me like I was an elementary school kid (I'm in my 30s). I emailed regarding the problem and received no response. All we get is this post, chiding people: “As usual, when things go wrong, people start jumping to conclusions.” No apology, no “we’re sorry for the inconvenience.”

I understand that there are a lot of younger folks playing Halo 2 who probably can be a bit difficult to deal with from Bungie’s end when they get riled up. We’re Bungie’s customers, however, and are deserving of a little courtesy.

ok now....this is getting old...fast....its been almost 3 days since my xbox live has stopped working and you would think bungie would at least try to comfort us, by telling us an estimate of when they think they are gonna get it up and running for me again...halo 2 online is basically the only thing i do...i eat sleep and play halo 2 online.....but since my xbox live doesnt work....i only eat and sleep which gets pretty boring after the first 2 repititions.

OK, Ive been patient for three days now and still no response. WTF. I have not done anything wrong to deserve this. A service that I have paid for is not in service!!!!! for me and hundreds of ticked of people at least. I have emailed you guys about 4 times with no response. I feel we should be compensated in some way, maybe a free download of the maps that cost $6 for our inconvinience.

Yet another question about the feedback effectiveness. When i send a negative feedback on someone who is just being a "jerk" ie cursing, yelling, shoot JUST BEING A THREATING, RACIST, how fast does Bungie act on it?

If yall need proof, the jerk, who amazingly enough is on my buddy list, probably played with him once, left 2 voice messages which involved very racist, threating, and nasty comments. I figured i would not delete it cause if Bungie needs proof then I got it. Message was also left on my wife's message box, but she deleted her's after sending the feedback.
