The whole "sign out and then sign in" thing doesn't work. I would know. I've tried it already.
Example:
I'm on probation. I don't want to play this particular game type on this map so i sign out. I signed back in.
"player is quit-banned, sucker."
Crap.
Like I said, it doesn't work. It still registers as a quit according to the system.
Absolutely false. I have done it hundreds of times without a ban, you can get the probation warning, but you can't get banned until you quit while the game is going on. If you sign out in the lobby before the game begins you can not get banned.
I'm not lying. It's happened to me before. Signing out does not cheat the system, even if you do it before the game technically starts and you're still in the game lobby.
It's never happened to me and I have done it loads of times even under the probation. Do you have a terrible disc or lag or something? My friend has never been banned for this either.
My disc is perfectly fine, but I have been getting terrible lag ever since CEA came out. (odd coincidence?)
I'm not sure, maybe you're right. This game does tend to punish me for lag. For example, I was on quit probation once and I went into a game of Firefight Limited (back when it was still 4 player.) and everyone lagged out so I ended up by myself. I was still online though because every kill still gave me the 5-6 credits it usually does. After I finished the game, got my completion credits, slot machine, etc. I backed out to the matchmaking lobby to go to another playlist only to find I got quit banned.
So yeah, maybe my recent lag just has something to do with it. I'll have to test your theory out again at some point.
