Subject: Suspended from Halo Waypoint with no reason whatsoever....

I've been suspended from halowaypoint.com (yes a loyal supporter of Halo) suspended...why? well I'm not sure because when you get suspended you can't access your inbox to see the reason...

On a further note, there's no option anywhere to contact anyone for a reason...

On a further further note, I went to XBL customer support, (because I don't mind wasting MS $ on support agent salary time), and they give me this:

"we would have no access to account suspensions for games."

Me: This isn't about a game, it's a site owned by Microsoft Studios.

"you should contact the enforcement team"

Me: how would I contact them?

"You may use this link "Forums""

Me: That link sends me to like 50 links, who do I contact?

"select "15 - My LIVE account was suspended""

Me: Thank You

Exit - 1/10 rating, bad bad bad

That's reason for suspension? Even when I provide legit evidence to prove that they are indeed idiots?

I guess next time I'll learn to say incompetent.

Are you incapable of word substitution?

  • 12.11.2012 3:41 AM PDT

Yes, but a synonym is no different than the word in question.

  • 12.11.2012 3:42 AM PDT

Also, you may close this topic, just venting my rage on the forums I grew up with. :)

On a side note: If you get offended by anything, you need to either A) realize whatever is being said is true, or B) grow up.

This includes racism, sexism, and so on.

I myself learned this at a very young age being bullied during my first weeks of kindergarten, and spending most of my time in isolation. Than I began to realize, that if stop letting other affect you, then they will leave you alone, and some will actually become your friends.

Agreed. (Still going to argue the point that emotions should not effect word choice)

HW is bad. Mods are some of the biggest asses I've ever met (and I haven't been banned).

No.

What it sounds like is that you need to learn how to play by 343's rules when you're in their playground, not your own.

but that's no fun! it's like listening to the playground officials in elementary school...Instead I did flips off the swing, jumped the barrier, and created physical contact games of my own outside the eyes of the overseer.

Playing outside the rules over the last month has...

Let me obtain:
76 Free 36" x 24" Posters (4 being Halo 4 Posters)
10 Copyrighted Poster Prints
$10 for negative feedback.
800 MC points
Halo 4 (release day) for $43
A $120 camera for $40
A 3TB external hard drive for $100
A 120GB SSD for $65
1 New Free Collectors edition Razer Onza controller
1 New Free Razer Onza Controller
1 New Free Turtle Beach Headset
(Note these are not returns/replacements)
Another $15 in profit
About $300 in Paintings for $80 (Sold 4/20 for $60 locally)
And...I'm on a list to receive free stuff from a tech company for leaving feedback over their products.

^ This is how playing outside the rules is beneficial.

On a side note, I'm extremely honest, and on each occasion I have personally notified the staff of their mistakes, and yet nothing seems to get changed. Everything above is also within the boundaries, but outside the rules. Meaning nothing was illegal, you just have to be intelligent.

Also note, as a child I was banned from the Halo forums multiple times for joking around in the "flood" section. That is why my official account has 2 underscores...people get offended, and bans are issued way too quickly by forum moderators...I would know...being a server admin on Minecraft let me realize that any little thing can be a perm bann offense.

I'd also like to share Microsoft has the same type of enforcement:

People get perm bans for incorrect "tenure", "tampering with website avatars (making their skin another color...", and so on. Famous video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuBfEywUleM

I did get a warning from 343 for posting in the "elect someone for member of the month" forum for saying:

"I elect bs angel for posting bs information" - Completely true, but I assume the word "bs" is illegal.

  • 12.11.2012 4:09 AM PDT

Dude, I always thought it was really dumb that they send you a message you can't even check. The mods there have double standards, wish I could send BS angel an email to give her a piece of my mind. horrible moderation team

On top of this, the mods are invisible, meaning your thread/account will get locked/deleted/suspended/banned out of nowhere without warning. At least here I used to be able to complain directly to a Bungie employee about a ban. :)

There's also no "contact us" on the site, so you are forced to go to xbox live's customer support. So silly...so much $ wasted on support time.

Pulling this kind of crap would get you banned here, too.
