Too bad you can't Ban de-levelers (people who start a game and intentionally kill themselves over and over to cost their team the game) as well. When somebody sabatoges a team's score in any way, it takes the fun out of the game. I think this even if it happens on the other team. I cannot receive the same type of satisfaction when I am "killing them into dust". Team sabatoge or unsportsman-like conduct should be added as a choice for feedback.

The punishment for all offences should not be permanent bans. I believe that another gametype should be added; smear-the--blam!-s (or the whatever the politically correct term is these days). A cheater's only xbox live option should be this playlist. It should consist of cheaters being alone on a team vs. 7 non-cheating people, and the cheater's character cannot move. There is no time limit, and all non-cheaters on the team of 7 can vent their frustrations on the paralyzed cheaters for as long, and however gruesome they want. This has potential to be the playlist of choice for halo 2 players; that is of course only until the cheaters have had their fill of cheating and unsportsman-like conduct.

Hopefully my long-winded suggestion doesn't fall upon deaf ears.

Questions or comments feel free to message me on xbox live.

wow absoulutely hilarious guys. i think there should be a forum devoted to this could call it the Ban forum and we could see actually how many cheaters are getting banned.

  • 05.24.2006 2:28 PM PDT

I got banned back in the day for using the dummy glitch with the warthog. I didnt know it was cheating. But I dont like complaining, even though I was banned for like 2 days.

Truly hilarious, you can't help but love seeing children do stupid things and then try to make up for them with thousands of spelling errors and internet slang.
I am led to believe Bungie does go a slight bit overboard though, my roomate had his account banned for seemingly nothing, he did have a modder on his friends list, and the modder was banned, but I dont believe he ever did any sort of matchmaking with said modder. Then again, it's not my problem, let the waaahmbulance roll on!

ok well i have been banned on previous accounts for modding and standbying, well i am legit now but i dont have xbox live. and what i learned is it is so much more fun to play without cheating... only if the other team isnt cheat, i stopped playing when i was teamstandbyed and it really made me mad but i think there should be no way to continue playing matchmaking, make somkind of setup so your xbox gets banned perminitaly instead of an accout, because there are cheaters on h3 i am not going to buy it.

Lil Z 2269

Im Lil Z 2269 I am a ligit none cheating:(modding, standbying,bridging,etc.)I never cheated on halo 2 in my life.I am asking if playing a custom slayer with modders that have host and that are modding Can get me banned from Halo 2. Im just wondering. Because flying worthogs,turrets, and super jumping at will would be alot of fun. I would never think of playing matchmade games with modders/cheaters(wich is mentally retarded). But for me the issue of playing with modders on custom slayers is a bit hazy.Can u guyz pleaze Q me in on that. RSVP

~The Truth Is For Those Who Lack Creativity~

The fact that these people actually still try to defend themselves (and in some cases don't even understand that they've done something wrong) really makes me angry. I mean come on. Do these people really think that they are the only ones who want to enjoy the game?

Muahahahahahahaha. Funny as hell.

You know, I almost sympathize with these guys.

Almost.

Back about a year ago, I modded Halo 2. And got two accounts banned for it. Took me about six months to realize that playing legit was a whole lot better than modding, standbying, boosting, bridging, and other assorted cheating. And so I have a third account, which is totally legit.

Thanks for posting this stuff, Bungie. Makes me feel a little bit better that when I get modded, the modders are probably going to get caught.

I liked the one where the kid kept saying he never cursed or threatened but he kept saying bull-blam!-

Then there was that lawyer one where the guy kept using the wrong words.

Giggle!

I love reading these idiots attempt at writing even more than listening to their childish screaming in the game. What I'd really like to see is the ability to boot a modder out of a game DURING the game, rather than watch some loser take my legit level down.

Does Bungie do anything to compensate the legit players who were sucked down by modders? I'm about 26 but spend a great deal of time fighting back from 18-20 due to these cheaters/modders/racists/freaks.

In most PC games I've played, you can actually vote a player out of the game, this would be nice to include in Halo 2.

Thanks for listening.
