Subject: Banned for finding games.

Hello, I would like to say how thrilled I am to obtain a one week ban for finding the same people in doubles with my friend. So, here's the story: Last night me and my friend were searching team doubles like normal teams of two do and we got matched with these two boosters who were quitting before the game started. Well I kept searching doubles because that is what I was in the mood to play and we kept on getting the boosters and after several times of continuously getting matched with them I got tired of not getting a game so I just called it a night and went to bed. Well, I wake up today and turn my xbox on ready to play some Halo and when I get on Halo I discover my account AND xbox are both banned for a week. So I call my friend and tell him what happened and I sign in to his account to see if it is banned and his is not banned and neither is his xbox.Now I recently received a perm-ban on my other xbox and my account for deranking so I am not going to sit here and pretend to be a goody-good and act like I have never done wrong but since then I have been on a different xbox with a new account and have no intention of deranking. But my point here isn't about being banned for a week it's the fact that I was banned for just trying to find an actual game of doubles and the boosters who repeatedly quit games are still playing right now. It blows my mind that I am the only one that was handed a ban last night when I didn't do anything wrong and the actual cheaters did not get banned. So there you have it, another person wrongly banned and the cheaters still playing the game. Great job with the banhammer, Bungie. That is all, good day.

All bans are final. If you were banned then you did something to trigger the ban system so you deserve the ban.

Also, Bungie no longer runs Halo.

*Ahem*

Bungie is no longer managing the Halo Universe. While our Halo-related forums and stats remain available, be advised that "official" answers and support about the Halo Universe (past, present, or future) are not.

Shut the -blam!- up. You cheated, so deal with it. If you still have to cheat in a 5 year old game with enough problems already, just kill yourself. The world would be a much better place without people like you.

Sorry, but Halo 3 is 5 years old. The only thing it's good for anymore is playing social for fun, nostalgia, memories, and laughs. If you still play ranked with intention to rank up, you're kidding yourself.

I'm out.

You can't get banned for people quitting anymore. That part of the ban hammer was turned off ages ago.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Go tell this to Waypoint.
Bungie can't help you anymore.
