Subject: Why Bungie and the quit ban are pathetic

And thank God Bungie is no longer making the Halo franchise. They got lucky with Halo 1, and have had declining returns ever since. Their one shot in the dark got them all arrogant and d-bag-ish. They think that they're the greatest thing since sliced bread. They're not. They are a bunch of arrogant d-bags who deserve to go bankrupt. They don't know the meaning of the word "customer service". But I digress.

The quit ban is a pathetically moronic idea for several reasons:
1) it doesn't do anything to curb quitting. In fact, it actually incentivizes quitting. Quitting is a far greater problem in Reach than it ever was in Halo 3.

2) all it accomplishes is to put Halo in 3rd (probably lower now) place behind Call of Duty (TWICE!). Banning people from playing solely for leaving games voluntarily or otherwise just alienates the consumer, and makes them want to go play games that dont ban them for leaving games. Hence the reason COD is pathetically beating Reach TWICE.

3) Bungie had to be d-bags and have the "you have quit too many games" message appear MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF GAMEPLAY. This has the happy side effect of potentially getting you killed or stealing a kill from you. There is no way that this d-bag "warning" is anything other than Bungie being complete and utter a-holes. If you want to warn people, PUT UP A SINGLE MESSAGE BETWEEN GAMES

4) The quit ban does not differentiate between quitting, getting disconnected, or getting booted by a d-bag teammate who betrays himself on your attack on an enemy. More than a few times, I have been subject to the quit ban soley because of idiotic teammates in Big Team Slayer. If youre going to have an assine qu it ban, make sure it bans you for actually quitting

5) if youre going to have a quit ban, dont have it hang over somebody's head for a week or more. That just discourages people from playing halo. Seriously, Bungie, the more one analyzes the quit ban and your other moronic decisions, the more one thinks that Halo 1 was probably far more a stroke of luck than a stroke of genius. Your multiplayer is still by far the best out there. If it werent for your moronic decisions, you'd be killing Call of Laggy.

You guys are probably too gutless to actually debate anyone, so you hide behind your pathetic shield of arrogance. Nobody is fooled. In reality you are just petty bullies with no self confidence who had one lucky shot in the dark with Halo 1, and have been on the decline ever since.

And please, don't nickel and dime people by releasing an incomplete game and then charging them 20 bucks to complete it. Thats just pathetic money grabbing.

THIS IS YOUR CUE TO PATHETICALLY TRY TO DEFEND BUNGIE, ALL YOU BOARD SYCOPHANTS

Halo 2 and 3 were great and Reach is fun too but I have mixed feelings about the quit ban. I think that it's no ones business whether a player quits or not and the 15 minute wait time really doesn't stop peoples quitting habits anyway.

On the other hand I can see why there is action taken on people who quit. In games like COD if you lose a player someone else can join in but in Halo if you lose a player your team is down for the whole game so that could be a valid reason. IF it were up to me I would just remove it because I feel the quit ban forces you to play a game that you don't want to.

Bungie is no longer managing the Halo Universe. While our Halo-related forums and stats remain available, be advised that "official" answers and support about the Halo Universe (past, present, or future) are not.

Go to halo.xbox.com to whine.

Banned just for calling someone retarded? lolBnet mods
Duardo = retard

So you think Reach is an actual Halo game, huh? LOL
Jesus! There's a BoB in ma Falcon!

Someone needs to use the word "d-bag" less. BTW Bungie doesn't own Halo anymore so they wont be listening to whine over lolReach. Go start whining at the right website.

Now GTFO

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

How can a quit ban be an incentive to quit?

Also, I saw like 10 games on the OP's front page out of which he quit. STOP QUITTING AND THE QUIT BAN WON'T BE A PROBLEM! Dumbass.

Number 3 has NEVER happened to me. It actually does warn you between games.

I think the quit ban should be MORE harsh, not less.

Want fewer quitters? 15 minutes out of matchmaking for quitting even once.

Don't quit. Ever.

Quitters are pathetic. End of line.
