Subject: Ooops, I got banned from earning credits ...

... my four year old is understandably rubbish at Halo but he likes to play with me and I was wanting to up my skills at playing with the half screen picture rather than the full screen, so I let him have a controller.

He played for about 30 secs and then settled down for a sleep with the controller.

But I had this brilliant idea ... I need pistol kills for the weekly challenge ... so why not shoot him when I run past him?

But even better, I can see where he is and head over there.

Brilliant, right, how could it go wrong? I had about 111 kills of the 200 needed, and it finishes tonight.

So I racked up some kills, as did others when they came across him.

But now I've been banned from earning credits.

Apparently for 24hours ... so you get banned for 10minutes for quitting too many games ... but for 24hours for whatever reason.

That's pretty daft.

PS is there a search engine for the forum?
PPS yes I am dork ... I know that.

And I am un-banned.

Wish there was a warning system in place.
