Subject: Temporary Ban- how long will it last/can i get around it?

Yesterday when I was playing matchmaking, a message came up and said I have been temporarily banned from earning credits. I might have betrayed one person in an earlier match, and right before I had to turn off my console I started sniping my teammates. How long will this ban last, and is there anyway I can get around it?

I play for fun and armory completion. :)

You either AFKed or boosted to get a ban like that. You cannot get around it and it will probably expire in 2 weeks.

You have a few games with your guest getting 0 kills, the banhammer might have thought you were AFKing the guest which is a bannable offense. Their is nothing you can do to get around it except wait it out. 24 hours - 2 weeks. Just check back every day to see if you can earn again.

Than stick to Campaign and Firefight when you play with a newbie. That's what I do, easier to get use to the game in those than Multiplayer.
