how the hell can you be banned for quitting. dude its just not possible


Quitting is "Negative Feedback" . If you get enough negative feedback, you get banned. It is very possible. I have not been banned yet...if you read the post again.....but i'm afraid that this is what is keeping my reputation down. It does work, i have a friend who got banned from negative feedback.....it was temporary, however he uses alot more abusive language than i do as well... and, he plays more than me. I actually declined our Friday Night usually around 4-6 hour Halo 2 Marathon cause I'm just completely fed up with the cheating. But enough negative feedback...no matter what negative it is, will get you banned. so as I accumulate more quitting feedback, it gets put into the negative feedback jar and will eventually add up. it is possible, very possible, I just hope it doesnt happen to me. thank you for your concern.... i do appreciate it. I'm also surprised I've lasted this long on the thread so far. But I think that's because Every one is off for the Holiday. Let's see if my posts are still here on wednesday.....if not, anyone is more than welcome to message me if you want to discuss this thread with me any further.

Happy Independance Day to all of Bungie and to everyone playing Halo 2 honestly.


I think it's real rare to get banned from just negative feedback about quitting. Swearing, yes, is more negative feedback. But I myself have quit a WHOLE lot of games, and I've been playing Halo 2 since the day it came out.


Correct, probably nearly impossible, not my point though... enough negative feedback, no matter what itr is...... will get you banned. that's my point. Quitting is negative feedback, infact I believe Racizm is the worst, Cheating feedback is second, and quitting is third. I'll have to look it up, but bungie has certainly expressed it's feelings about quitting... and so have i if you will please go back and read all my posts...not just this 1. thanks for your concern. But your response doesnt even seem like you read this post entirely either. you quoted it, so read it again. It's obvious I pointed out it's not just the quitting feedback. Read again.. it's in this post and in the 1 you quoted. thank you. please read what is written and not what you thought you read.

OK. You're right, I didn't read everything.

Anyways, could negative feedback permanantly ban you? I don't think so.

I believe it's only temporary... 7 days is common for a feedback ban... if theres a considerable amount of cheating and more offensive feedback... I believe it can be made longer and quite possibly permanant. but the permanant bans i believe so far from what I've seen and heard is mostly from cheating and Bungies "switchboard lighting up" is what gets your account permanantly banned.

note : it is only the account that is banned. therefore these kids are not exactly permanantly banned as Frankie pointed out.... all you need to do is "buy" another account(which i find repulsive). this tells me they are not banning anything other than the account. In my opinion, the xbox should be banned according to IP, or the modem should not be able to connect them to live. but we all know this will NEVER happen. therefore these permanant bans are meaningless in the eyes of many honest players. If they banned the xbox.... guess what... they can't get another $50.00 bucks off that box for live..... Oh wait maybe i'm onto something now. Ban the Xbox....then the player has to "Buy" a new xbox as well as the player has to "buy" a new account. Now that in my opinion is marketing brilliance. Please read my sig.

The part in the update where Frankie said that they would be accepting gametypes from the fans made me really excited because I'm an avid gametype creator. The update just doesn't make it clear how we can submit gametypes. If I'm confused in some way please explain.

I love how many people send emails acting like they know how networking works and use a couple of technical terms thinking they might out smart a bungie engineer.

I.E. Terms they think they understand: IP address
Networking theory they think they understand: IP address and DHCP servers

I Put my Gammer



ok i dout there is any thing you can do and if so o well. ok this happend a wile ago but i have not had the time to come here i had an xbox and it brock so i bout a used one because i did not have the monney to i gat home and put my gamertag on the xbox and when on live when i gat on it seid i was band from match making. i was wondering why. then i gat a xbox 360 a few days ago and put my gammer on there thinking it was just that xbox was wierd or something but it told me the same thing. i was just wondering if thiers any thing i can do? my gammertag is [withheld]
thank you

p.s. sorry i cant spell im only 13




Well, at least you apologized for that spelling. Is this typical spelling for a 13-yeard old? Folks?


Frankie the answer to your question (Is this typical spelling for a 13 year old?) is no. The reason being is that I just turned 13 and I can type around 75-80 wpm, but this guy's spelling and grammar is ridiculous I would say it would be typical spelling for a 7 year old (no offense to the horrible speller but its the truth). I actually spelled better than this guy at age 10 for all I'm concerned.

sincerely,
DemonicDerek

p.s. but considering I'm a huge computer nerd... (I'm a huge computer nerd because I know how to build my own computer and I'm only 13 although I am going to video tape me building my own computer so I have proof when I raise enough money for the computer)... maybe I'm wrong but still this guy's grammar sucks

XD Oh god. I love the Waaambulance stuff to death. If you can mod a highly complex game system AND a video game for that console, why in the holy name of Master Chief can't you type? Especially in a "please unban me!" email to Bungie.

I personally found the one written by the parent funny. I bet her son really did mod the Xbox and lied to her about it, most likely a technologically challenged individual, and she thought that her letter of disappointment would get Bungie to lift the ban.

And the one that threatened taking legal action because Bungie violated his first amendment rights. I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. I couldn’t believe that he thought the first amendment protects him when participating in a private organization. I also thought it was funny that he thinks that the U.S. does not limit freedom of speech and if they did the "world will fall apart."

Ok, I am new to all of this halo stuff. Two years ago me father told me to choose between and gamecube, xbox, or PS2. I picked gamecube for one game that I thought was cool, Metroid prime. I mean what the H??l dude, why did I chose that stupid piece of cr?p. You can't even play online. Now that I got an Hp pc I bought the game halo, and it was awsome. Then the baning came up. I was playing halo and lost connection to a game, well since I have a trojan virus on my computer it mest it up good. Well since we have a best buy service plan they fixed it and gave us a brand new 350 GB hardrive. For the first time when I put my computer back together I went to this website and made an acount. Then when I was serching for forums I put cheating as a joke cause I thought there was no way you could actualy cheat online, and so I saw. I was supriced someone could actualy get banned from online play.
_____________________________________________________________ _______________

So now I have just one question. How the h?ll can you modd an xbox and in what way can you modd it?
Also what is all this about modding and cheating.
If you can please respond to this mesage.
Please
Oh yeah, I am a mexican so if there is something wrong with my spelling just remember I am a mexican and not all mexicans can spell right.
Oh yea and If any of you know about a -blam!- called madman on halo pc online multiplayer please kill and beat the crap out of him. Preaty please oh yeah my halo pc name is JOEL.

You have doth sinned. Repent, and your heresy shall be forgiven. The name of Metroid Prime doth not be slandered by man's filthy tounge.
