<3 Honest to god ill break your heart, Tear you to pieces and rip you apart <3

so i was playing online with my son who is 3 online in halo reach and he actually got some kills but then the next day after we got back on it said my account was banned from earning credits!!! now if they are doing this because he was playing that is the stupidest thing i have ever heard. ya he is 3 and he is not all that great but come on halo is a online no age restriction game and he was interested in it which im very surprised about. idk what i can do to get in contact with bungie to fix this problem.....

They aren't banning you because you let a three year old play. They are banning you because they have a legitimate reason. Besides, you had to have done something bad. The ban is done by computer and more than likely dates back a while longer than yesterday. If you have gone AFK anytime in the past two weeks or so, for multiple games, it could just be catching up to you.

Aside from that, I am sure we won't be able to tell you exactly why you were banned. Sorry.

Nothing to fix. I'm pretty sure the ban systems are fully automated and there's a good reason for this.

It's a game. You'll get over it.

The campaign is, basically. Rearrange his sentence to say "Halo is not age-restricted online" and the M rating becomes irrelevant to this discussion.


Although I could be wrong. "Online interactions not rated"... Good thing too. I've had some R and maybe even some X rated "interactions". I dunno.

V: I can assure you I mean you no harm.
Evey Hammond: Who are you?
V: Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.
Evey Hammond: Well I can see that.
V: Of course you can. I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
Alas, so many quotes, so little room in the signature box.

Somewhere around the forums, there's a thread lurking. A thread made by a guy who did a study to see if playing very very badly would get you banned.

It does.

I'm pretty sure Bungie has a system that searches for instances of afk-ing. When you afk, you'll obviously have a lousy spread. Sadly, the system mistook your son for you afk-ing. Happened to me once when my brother's gf played. It's only like a 48 hour-ish ban, so just wait it out.

Hoped this helps! Sorry I didn't link said thread. I'm too lazy to go find it.

well ya it should have been a 40 hour ban but this happened last wed. and it would let me play and earn like 2 games of credits then say that my x box was banned in the middle of a game and it stops letting me get credits. =( i just wanted a nice mommy son halo day hahaha
