The List is not a Happy place. If you're on it, you'll never have Recon. If we were to flip a switch 1 morning & unlock Recon on every 360 in the world, you would still not have it. People who are caught lying end up on The List. People who are caught cheating end up on The List. Peopel who are banned from Matchmaking for any period of time are on The List. You don't want to be on The List.
I was wondering if anyone wanted to comment on this paragraph that Bungie made in a weekly update back on 4/18/08. It would be nice to know where Bungie stands on this topic since the ODST release date is right around the corner. There are some people out there that have been put on this LIST & if they are buying ODST to finish off the Vidmaster Achievements so they can unlock recon. If recon isn't going to be avalible to them then they have the right to know in advance, before they spend there hard earned money on this game.
If you have any comments or thoughts about this topic lets here it.
Please no trolling & Bungie if you are out there lets here what you haver to say.
Edit: If you are going back to the 4/18/08 Weekly Update & you can't find this paragraph, scroll down to "How Not to get Recon" read for a few minutes & you eventually come across this paragraph.

look at this From update (5/22/09).
For those wondering if that means they're on The List - the compilation of names we've collected of players who might never receive Recon via any method - the answer is probably no. We typically reserve those line items for the really egregious offenders, for example, players who convinced themselves it was a great idea to mod their way to the achievements that aren't available through official means just yet.
But if you've been banned for EXP boosting, your penalty has already been delivered. If you lost your File Share privileges, the consequences of your actions have already been realized. You can still have Recon come Fall, as long as you complete all of the Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST achievements required, just like everyone else.
And this isn't your cue to message us asking for a detailed itemization of each and every ban type for severity so you can determine if you have made The List. If your punishment was only temporary, or was confined only to Bungie.net, chances are you have nothing to worry about.
