"The Prophets are at 'Hand'..."

For some Live is a family place to interact over large or great distances, for others like us the core gamers from relaxed to hardcore its a place for fun with friends and good times in a game of Halo. I haven't the slightest idea on where to go with a serious issue other than to "File-Complaint" on the particular abusive user/s of Live, this group is low in population thanks to the hard work of the famous "Stepo" and crew w/the "ban-hammers'" of Bungie crashing down hard on those that would mess up our Live gaming experiences.

As a good hard-playing core citizen I am, I do read the Xbox Live User Agreement and try my best in which to follow it along as I game on and on. Unfortunately I had ran into a questionable message early on today and G-tag altogether. so I "File-Complaint" and left it at that, and continued gaming...mind you this G-tag I've never seen before- ever!

I will not disclose this tag as of yet, because this is an actual "Hacker" I'm dealing with- and he knows my G-tag. I've always had no qualms with hackers or Modders and in fact, I like to mod a bit and have some permanently offline hobbies with those systems and have some friends that do legitimately mod offline(always)- but its just a idle hobby nothing big at all.

However that is mostly aside my issue today, I come here in hopes that someone here might shed some light on "hackers/modders" that make Live give them a bad name, and how or what they've done.

Now going back to this- I was playing Halo 3 at the first message I had received- but then, after checking it out a-bit I "Filed Complaint" as said earlier, four hours later got the exact same message again this time while in Reach, and guess what! he hopped inside mid-game and out? Im sure that the score got messed up or in reverse or something but I should check the replay video out. but right after he showed up and possibly got kicked or left we all lost around 4-6 minutes or so of game time.

After that I blocked him from messaging me again. I advised the other players of the problem and asked them to report it and was at a loss for words. there was one whom on my team "red" whom had a mic that I tried to tell that the short ending was due to a hacker on my full team's list, when he the "hacker" joined, I thought we had a full BTB list on Boardwalk: "slayer" he may have kicked a blue team member out by joining the game in some fashion- Though I'm not sure of it exactly yet. Although my teammate with the mic left abruptly after alot of others did, being post-game by then after a very much indeed shortened match. So I couldn't tell him then and there.

Additionally I'd love to see a Bungie or 343-i employee give an idea as what can be done and learned from experiences like these, if at all possible I would love to know that its in their hands and are still working on this sort of issue, I'm sure they are, Since Live was created with cheaters/hackers in being an issue. Also the other players aside from my self probably lost kills, score, time- ect and were all wronged.

What burns me the most is that this individual wronged not only myself but everyone else on that game, whom probably had no idea of what just happened. To those whom were in that match, I regret the issue arouse and wish we all could have had our fun like usual. I hope you all forgive me and do not blame me for I wasn't the cause of the shortened game. Happy Holidays to those involved, I wish you a happy new year ahead!

footnote;
I realize this likely goes for not just system tampering or profile reporting either. So- it'd be great to have an official employee as I said to help us gamers in here on this topic even if there a-bit busy, i know that may not be possible. However, I'm positive on the events that have passed, after short review the video, which has no doubt seems questionable at best right now.

Results known-GAME SESSION ENED early:
@ around 8:00 minutes BLUE 73 us in red 55 or lower. However the video shows the blue at 57 us in red 75. So what exactly happened with my session is hard to say. Although I do know that something went very wrong. Usually Reach's BTB SLAYER gives 12 minutes per game!

*This is not a debate, but an issue that needs discussion, if you want to argue there are other places for that. I Thank you for reading and replying regarding the issues with hackers/modders you've experienced. I apologize if the length of this subject is abit long to you, I write scripts for a living.
