Subject: Temp Credit ban

I got a credit ban. It says it is temporary. My question is this: If I have a guest on. In this case my 4 year old son whom I am trying to show how to play the game, and I get an assassination on him which just so happens to give me the 7 assassinations in one game challenge, why would I be banned?

If this is something that should even be allowed? Why are we able to earn credits in a game where we might be banned if we have a guest?

Also, how long will the ban last.

Thanks

You either had an AKF guest controller signed in or you purposely signed in your son just to kill him.

You are a wonderful person.

It was signed in and my son was moving around trying to shoot and I kept telling him to shoot. Even the assassination on him was in error. In any case, I am just trying to clarify hoe long the ban is. Its the first time I have ever been banned in this game or any other.

Still, I only allow him to play so it increases his hand eye coordination as his pediatrician suggested.

If your guest has 0 kills you are going to get banned, which you have multiple games like that, you could say "he was trying to play" but we've seen that excuse many times no one believes it anymore even if it was true. Next time don't bring him into MM and play custom FF with him or campaign so you don't get banned.

First bans are 24 hours - 2 weeks. Just check back every day to see if you can earn again.

You're letting your four-year-old kid play a mature-rated video game? And you are confused about being banned for boosting in MM using a guest account?

There is no doubt about it. He isnt good. He is just now getting the hang of movement and shooting. Forget aiming. He was begging to play with "other Master chiefs". Anyway, thanks for the answer. I dont care about the credits. I care about being banned.

The Reach moderators (or moderator bot?) probably thought you were Credit Boosting.

He may be four, but I would rather him play this game then watch virtually ANYTHING on TV. I play racing games, and Halo. And as shooters go, this is only MATURE in the sense that it is shooting. There isnt any blood in matchmaking, and everyone voices are muted so its only me he can hear. He has not played the campaign with me and he hasnt seen me play it.

He also wouldnt even play it if it werent for his Dr. suggesting it.

I talk to him BEFORE and AFTER each time we play so he understand it is fake.

So, please dont judge me for letting him try and play.

1st of all why are you having your 4 year old son play an M rated game?

  • 01.27.2012 11:14 AM PDT

PSR = (((K+A)/D)*Win%)*120
The average player's PSR = 100

Watch how you talk to the ladies around here.

There isnt any blood in matchmakingUhh, yes there is. When you shoot a guy with his shields down blood comes out.

Firstly, I don't believe that you have a four-year old behind the controller, I think you just signed in a guest and pretended that it was just a bad player. It's still irrelevant, because teaching your four-year-old to play a game rated for people 17 and older is not just being an idiot gamer, it's also despicably bad parenting.

In any case, if your kid really wants to play Halo, play custom or firefight where you can control how the game operates and who interacts with your kid so you can customize his experience to tailor to his tastes and not infringe on other well-meaning players.

Banned just for calling someone retarded? lolBnet mods

So you think Reach is an actual Halo game, huh? LOL

The game must have thought you were boosting or something.

if you are telling the truth and I looked through your game history and I couldnt find the game but I did see some Campaign missions on ONI, played but did not finish. Were you credit farming on those missions, because if you were they credit ban for that now.

I didnt say hoe. I made a typo.

I meant to say I just want to clarify HOW (not hoe) long the ban would be.

I meant no offense.

Secondly, you are correct, I forgot about the blood with shields down. I havent played in a long time and only recently got Halo Reach back. The blood in matchmakining will make the difference about him playing. So he wont. Any recommendations on something that may allow him to play an FPS without blood?

Third, my son has an issue with his coordination. He is sick. And has been for several years. We dont know how are why he is sick, but, I have tried everything to help him overcome his problem.

How do you overcome something Dr's cant diagnose? He walks straight and then suddenly loses his balance? There arent drugs to get over it.

Anyway, 8 months ago I used to hide in another room so my son wouldnt see me play ANYTHING.

Sorry to delve into this, but, I am a good parent and I would do anything to help him get over whatever is afflicting his coordination. I appreciate everyone's answers even the harsh ones.

I did not know that. I havent played those missions with the intent of farming credits. Only because thats where I left off a long time ago and I dont have tons of time to play on any day but Fridays (my day off).

You don't get banned for campaign boosting.. You never will. Please show a link to where 343i said they are banning for that and i'll believe you.

Because if they were banning for it thousands of people would be banned because of all the custom challenge boosting they did with it, which no one has been banned for.
