Subject: What do I do to lift an unfair ban?

I was playing online with my gf's 3 year old kid when I got a temp ban. I didn't want to piss teammates off by having someone who didn't play well, so I played Grifball and Rumble Pit instead, thinking I would be in the clear. Is there any way to clear my name in this?

Next time don't play online with a 3 year old? And if you didn't get booted or quit multiple times, then you must have been AFK for several (many) games. Acting like it's a 3 year old won't change the fact that you AFK'd.

  • 01.27.2012 1:19 PM PDT

Yeah, don't do it again.

Sorry, but that's not going to fly.

There's your mistake.
It's your fault, you brought a 3 year old in, therefore it's not unjust.

You can check my stats bro, I wasn't AFK. He didn't get any kills, but lil dude was trying to play. Why does it have to be so strict? It wasn't hurting anybody on game types like that. I don't get what's the big deal

That's strike two.

In a sense, it's considered negative boosting. However, I still think the bigger question is what makes you think playing Halo with a three yr old is acceptable? By any standards?

Like I said, I know that bringing a 3 year old in is on me. But come on, he was bored with custom games and I wanted him to feel included. It's not like I do that often and I don't boost whatsoever, so why should I be punished just the same as cheaters on here? I'm just looking for info on how and if I can talk with someone at Bungie or 343i about lifting this.

Tonight and tomorrow are my gaming nights. Sucks if I can't earn. Trust me, lesson learned. The price is a bit high for wanting to let a kid play apparently.

You're going to be wasting your time. You already told us what happen, it's in the numbers, it is what it is.

Next time, do something more productive with him. I have a friend with a two yr old kid who is already mastering synthesizers and sound waves.

Just saying.

Seems like you understand Dante. Thanks. I figured it is what it is, I just wanted to try my luck. And I do productive things with him, but just like any kid, he wanted to play video games like the big boys lol. How do I find out how long my ban is anyhow?

  • 01.27.2012 1:32 PM PDT

You can't lift bans, just deal with it.

24 hours to 2 weeks, I think?

Yep. You can still play, just don't expect any cR.

I've read that, but how do I know which it is? I'll have to have my friend bring his console when he comes tomorrow so at least he can earn cR if it's the 2 week one...

Is this your first offense? If it is, I'm pretty sure it's 24 hours. If not, then it's 2 weeks.

  • 01.27.2012 1:45 PM PDT

It's my GT's first offense. But I'm not sure if it was this console or my old one that my friend got a ban some time ago... I won't be happy if I'm cR banned for 2 weeks for this shi+

Lets hope it's a pure console ban to the year 9999.

Why? I play fair and am a good teammate to have. Cuz I let a kid play as a guest with me once, I'm automatically the scum of the universe? Give me a break kid. How old are you anyway? Does your mom know you play Halo and talk trash for no reason other than your own ignorance and stupidity? get a life

Oh, I pictured you being a young guy(say 21) who found a teenage mom or something. In your case it's cool.
