Subject: Quitting > Lagging Out?

Why is lagging out counted as Quitting a game, its not OUR fault if we dont have the best connection with the other people..

Example.. i JUST got banned for 15 mins, for quitting Because i lagged out of the loby with the other person in ARCADE FIREFIGHT... How is that MY fault?

I'm sorry to break this to you, but it is literally your fault for having bad connection. You should upgrade your internet service if you lag so much that you're getting quit banned from it.

Unfortunately, if it was done any other way, people who wanted to quit could just pull a cable every time to make it look like it was a "connection problem" and never have to deal with any consequences for quitting.

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

If you would stop downloading material taht you shouldn't be looking at while you are playing online, it will help your situation.

But seriously, just like getting booted counts as quiting, it isn't fair (sometimes), but it is usually for the best.

When you lag out, you lose connection to the internet.
So how the hell are the Bungie servers supposed to know that you lagged out when you lost connection to the internet? You can turn your xbox off and that also loses connection to the internet.
