Halo 2 was the best Halo game

Means there is another account on your Xbox that was permanently banned for boosting credits. Your 360 isn't modded is it?

*edit* Just checking some of your games history, and it shows you idled for a few games. If you afk for a few games the system will ban you from earning credits. If your not playing, turn off your Xbox so you don't screw over your team by not playing.

no its really not

Did you go into games then not play? Idling is against the rules. Also, did you boost, or mod? Any of those things could be it. Since it's a credit ban, it's most likely you not playing in games, intentionally or unintentionally, it's still against the rules to be AFK in games. This is the second time in 1 month being banned, so I doubt the system is making a mistake.

My future is certain, I will one day fly away. All because I am saved from the penalty of sin. I know he lives.

Eating lunch will get you banned

There were a few others, so that is why. Enjoy the time off, and play the game for fun for a change.

It depends on how many times this has happend to you. Considering that your account hasn't been reset, I will go out on a limb and say that you should only be banned for 24 to 48 hours.

However, you will be placed on probation and any offence that you cause will send you back to the hole with out warning.

that still isnt fair i should have been warned so if i get banned it should only be for 24 hrs, from now on i know not to do that

Also since now you will be on probation, keep in mind that if you quit early, get booted or AFK again that you will be back in the same perdicament. So just play the game it was ment to be played.

Of course I don't agree with the booting, but it counts as if you left the game early.

You do get a warning. It's a small ban that's usually a 24hr cR ban, then you get put on probation. If you do it again while on probation by the game, then it bans you for a longer time.
