I'm sorry America is busy helping others in the world and actually making a difference.

Something Canada will never do.

Host doesn't really matter when you're EXP boosting so you'll be fine.

BTW there's the reason you lost host. You shouldn't have EXP boosted on your own host. Justice.

thats the thing tho, on my box there was like 20 games of exp boosting but before that my brother exp boosted on his box in college. he lives 3 hours away and he has a different internet provider. so idk whatever. do hostbans apply to customs too? cuz i havent gotten host in customs either... lol

Add me if you're a serious MLG player.

I pulled host 95% of the time in 2009 and 2010, biggest host warrior of them all. I have been host-banned since October 2010, and playing off-host isn't a big deal once you get used to it.

I was host banned because I played a ton of high level throwback/objective/slayer/squad, so naturally I got cheated frequently on my host, causing me to get host banned. Nothing I did, but unfortunately the system can't detect that.

Host bans do not apply to customs.

Nah, you're not host banned from customs. I doubt you're even host banned. You just royally f***ed your host record by boosting exp.

Were people quitting on the other team? cuz that would totally destroy your host record if 4 people quit on your host every game.

Well he was EXP boosting, so people were quitting, yes. Looking at his game history, he boosted at least 1 page (didn't look to see if he'd done more pages) of doubles, where the other team were quitting.

you might not be banned though. only way to test that is search doubles with someone who knows they are host banned. if you can't lock into a game, you are also host banned. searching with two accounts on the same xbox also works.
