Subject: Random muted people?

Every lobby in MM has a scattered amount of people muted. Most of the muted people are in MLG, or BTB, and most of the time they don't even have mics plugged in. I've checked all in-game and out of game preferences and it's all fine, but the problem still seems to reoccur. I un-mute all of them. What should I do to fix this problem?

There's nothing you can do. They're mute banned, just like me. :(

You can't fix it. Once a person is manually muted enough times, they're always going to be muted by default. Another stupid system from Bungie.

I don't think its you. I think people get muted automatically for previously disruptive game chat.

But it is in every lobby. Are there that many mute banned people? Was this in H3?

In MLG full parties always mute the other team so they cannot hear their own call outs, thus why so many people are mute banned. Full parties in general use this tactic.

Yeah, there are a ton of mute banned people. A lot of people, especially in MLG, mute the other team so they can call out without the other team hearing them. Unfortunately that's enough to earn people mute bans.

Which sucks, because how am I supposed to make fun of my team now unless they unmute me? :|

I hope 343i removes this. I really this, the constant trash talking was really fun.
