Subject: This Account Has been banned from receiving credits? The question WHY

i got banned last night talked to xbox and they said to contact u. Me and my three friends were playing reach together on the same xbox. We had three real live accounts and one guest the guest was a person who has never played halo before and he did not get a kill in like 8 straight games. He also jumped of the edge and betrayed bec he didnt know what he was doing. All three accounts got banned in the middle of a game. We did not get reset we got credit banned. i would like to know why bec we were simply playing with friends and i guess they suspected up of boosting but he betrayed us so it doesnt make any sence. Please if u can give me any information on the ban and how long or why. I am not happy at all right now, thank you and please help.

There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away. Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting. I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing. Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication.

Unfortunately, the system can't tell the difference if you are AFKing or not, sorry.

"So much of what we do is ephemeral and quickly forgotten, even by ourselves, so it's gratifying to have something you have done linger in people's memories." John Williams

If you don't get a kill for 8 straight games, even if you're "playing", the system detects you as an AFK player. 0 kills in 8 games? Thats a bit ridiculous. Unfortunately that is how the banhammer works. Bungie no longer controls Halo. If you want to get an official response, please post here.

I'm a girl and I'm a big gamer, especially the Halo games.. And my name on xbox (weelise) is pronounced like Lisa but without the "a". Lies is not how it's spelt goddammit. :)

I got banned from receiving credits last night too but I only found out today when I went online. They wouldn't tell me why though. But I think it might be the betrayal thing. My brother was playing with me last night and although he has his own account I was the party leader. He got a few betrayals - which weren't actually his fault - over the 3 or 4 hours that we played online and he isn't the best player. Do you think that affects our stats just because we're party leader?

who cares? credits are a meaningless stopgap in an attempt to cover up reach's flaws and lack of motivation without a ranked system, anyway

anyone who cares the slightest about credits cares too much

To be honest, I'd like to receive my credits as I'm trying to go up more ranks as I get better at playing. You may not feel the same and you're perfectly entitled to your opinion.
Yes it does have flaws and the ranking system could be a hell of a lot better, but the fact that I've been getting better and now I'm being penalised for something which isn't my fault is, to be quite frank, stupid. That's the part that's annoying me :/
