My favorite map is terminal, but i have to say something that has happened constantly to me, i've been doing match making and i would suddenly die and i'm killed by "the guardians". Just to let you know i know what that means. But what i dont understand is nothing hit me, blew up, or i didn't far in to a bottomless pit i would just fall over and die. What's goin on???

Just to let you know sometimes, innocent people get banned, but they will let you back on unless they found proof that you cheated or used foul language

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

Bungie, you guys suck, i havent cheated and im still banned. You guys are banning random people just to show the halo 2 world that you can ban people. Screw you guys, I'm getting everyone i possibly can to lose all your customers. This is why halo 2 sucks. I wanna know why i was banned.


Read the previous update, you idiot.

Hmmmm maybe you were banned because you were modding. I looked at your games and every game that was on warlock you always won by a huge margin and you would have like 30 kills and 0 deaths. I think that is probally the reason you were banned.

I think Bungie should remake the map Sidewinder from Halo 1. That map was awesome. Also, how do you ask questions and get them in the what's update?

Howdy,
I'm just curious...

I realize that folks are getting banned for cheating, and rock on for that.

However, what is to stop them from mearly creating a new Xbox live account using the jillion "2 month free" vouchers & starting the crap-ass cycle of cheating all over again?

I've friends who simply use those over & over, they just cancel after the 2 months are up, & then re-create an account using another one.
Now, yes, it is a few hoops to jump through but we're also talking about lame-o's that are willing to go through the bother of modding just so they can appear like gods for a few moments to total strangers... these quasi-rebels are willing to go through quite a bit to "beat the system".

So, the long and short is, when someone is banned, is there personal billing info used for future reference, or are they able to jump right back on & continue the same crap all over again?
Ok, so it wasn't as quick as I thought, but I'm just curious, because it seems the cheating community is growing rather then shrinking...

Doubtful I'm bringing anything new to your attention, but I'm just curious...

Here's to getting back to some legitimate fun...

Thanks,
Spider...

Frankie! You should have said you were in Scotland! I don't mind driving all the way from the heart of England to see you (its a damn sight closer than Seattle). But now to a serious and shocking question. Frankie, I'm sure I represent hundreds (or maybe just me, I might be the only Bungie fan who has discovered this) when I ask what is Soffish.com? And can you explain this images directory containing an almost pornographic picture (I shall not disclose the location of the picture within the directory to make sure that no-one can be shocked by it - you'll just have to find it yourself)? Don't say this has nothing to do with Bungie, because on Shishka's rules of the New Mombasa forums his second post with rule #11 links to an image hosted on Soffish.com. Now, trying not to sound like a reporter trying to scandalize this all, I just want to know how this mysterious website concerning the alleged fish came about. Please send answer soon! (with food and instructions for custom avatar - I'm just trying to eke out a meagre existence on the fringes of such deprived communities as the forumgoers of the Flood)

IP bans dont work. A good modder will just change his info.... MSoft needs to bann the address given by the Internet Provider.

Furthermore... about this update... im not saying im a modder... anyone who checks my game links can plainly see that... but what about honorable players who use a modded box (for something like a mediaplayer function... or its FTP capabilities) but disable thier chips and never cheat on LIVE....will they be banned as well on the next update?

If so I think microsoft is gonna screw over some people in the name of a fast-answer to cheating.....heres an idea...ban creditcard numbers microsoft...if you really want to end multi-gammertag cheating, ban a confirmed cheaters gamertag and the credit card used therein.

I doubt many of these little kids have access to more than 1 or 2, at least we will see a huge dip in cheaters.

Don't say that to a Halo 2 master! He is a wise one and must be treated with respect. So basically don't make fun of UnholyComing4u or more generally (to include him and many others), don't make fun of n00bs. Zing!

Yeah, you're right, Microsoft reserve the right to refuse sale of Xbox Live gamertags to anyone.
