Subject: This Account has been Temporarily banned form earning credits?

Ok so my friend and I played Halo reach last night and awaoke this morning to find that m yaccount (and the console) have been banned from earning credits. Here's a few reasons why i think it happened
We played 4 games i had a total of 5 kills across these games 1 game i had 0.
My friend had 0 kills in 3 games and a -3 in one.
I have been told if you or your guest peform badly you can get banned which i find to be very unfair, he was still learning how to play it.
Yes he did betray someone, yes we were booted can that get me banned?
Are any of the reasons proper ways that this may have happened. Please can you guys help me find out why i have been banned, it's quite upsetting for me. If any of you know please help. Also how long is this ban?
Can i please talk to a representative form Bungie or soemone of authority as to why this has happened. I haven't done anything wrong. I would like to speak to someone, thank you.

How are we going to do anything?

You want a sandwich? Sure. As long as you don't mind me putting poison in it.

Yeah. I use the AR, so what? All you can do is scream and rage about me using the weapon.

If what you say is true and your guest did get 0 kills in most of his games and gone negative in the others then that is most likely the reason as to why you were banned.

If it was his first time, learning the ropes should we say, then I may I suggest taking him into Firefight for a few matches before facing off against other players? Or, better yet, how about have a few matches with him/her in Custom Games.


Unfortunately Bungie cannot help you as they're no longer in charge of the Halo Universe. You could try posting over at the Waypoint forums but I doubt 343i would listen.

no need for the language. I was merely asking if the reason i listed was correct and i wouldl ike to know why i was banned and want someone to help me. This whole episode has uset me greatly i would also like to speak to someone who knows why this happened and was hoping someone could tell me how to do that

0 kills = possible AFK in the Banhammer's "eyes" = ban.

Ok thank you. I think it's an unfair reason to ban people. He was upset by it as well but he got a lot better so thats good. We just hope the ban isn't too long. If this type of stupid thing keeps happening, i'm going to COD

As far as I know, if its your first ban, then it should be for 24 hours.

This is not always true.

Oh. Does it depend on the offence or is it just random?

Beats me. A guy made a thread about a cR ban a while back, IIRC he claimed it was his first offense and the ban was on him for several days prior to him making the thread, I've seen a few other threads just like that one too before. If it's not 24 hours, it's usually 2 weeks.
