Why should I suffer a banhammer when 343’s servers are -Yoink-? My friend just got banned for 2 minutes because she got kicked in one game. Also a while ago my other friend got kicked from two games along with the enemy team and he was banned for a while -Yoink- hour. Why are we suffering for their -Yoink- servers again? Please relax.
Servers are fine and as a matter of fact i never get disconnected…stop
quitting
Banhammer works fine as it, I vote to keep it the same.
You’ve had 9 DNF’s since Monday.
The Banhammer should be increased not decreased.
You’re complaining about a 2 minute ban?
I agree it is a little much when I get banned for a disconnect when I can’t even get through a game of slayer without being killed by teammates throwing awful grenades constantly. I bought the game and pay for xbl. Yet cannot play.

You bought the right to play the game, and the rules of the game is that i343 can revoke your right to play as they see fit. Which is also displayed on every single playlist when you enter it.
You won’t get banned for a single DNF here and there. It’s when it gets out of hand that the banhammer starts glancing at you.
I’ve had three consecutive disconnects and one full game in one evening, and never got banned. I just stopped playing altogether after the third DC.
If you disconnects a lot, you are impacting other players’ experiences just like you are when you’re willfully quitting.

You have a remarkably dim view on human psychology if you think harsher bans would work in a gaming environment. 343 should be looking for solutions to their quitting problem, not ineffective punishments that could be easily circumvented.
People don’t get banned on one offense. The only time I’ve been banned is from backing out because others got dropped. I’ve been banned twice. I don’t see it as a problem, but I understand the frustration of getting “pulled over”.
Yeah OP. Initially, I was mad about the ban hammer and I would use excuses like “343i’s servers”. But then… I honestly reflected upon my actions and realized, not only was it a bad idea to vent about it on waypoint, but my actions had a negative impact on other players who are trying their best to win.
So I stopped quitting “getting dropped mid match”.
(and believe me, there are times especially in placement matches where a player drops out, it’s 3v4, my team is down 7 kills, and I want to rage quit. Just remind yourself that it’s not the right thing to do).
Take from this what you will.

Starvation isn’t real I ate a sandwich today
Every one claims “bad servers” and disconnects but in actuality they are quitters.

Wow do you people honestly not believe that 343’s servers can DC you randomly? Just because someone got banned doesn’t always mean they’re a quitter.
