Dear 343,
I know you get a lot of talk back on the banhammer. I know that some people deserve it and are mad that it happens to them so they lash out. I don’t play Halo with frequency only on a occasion. Due to where I live I sometimes have bad internet connection. Sometimes when I try to play it ends up that the internet is slow and I can’t play multiplayer games. I freeze up and just have to deal with that frustration. Instead of that and potentially ruining the game for my team I leave the game. I did this once about 2-3 days ago and again once today. I am now banned from multiplayer. How does this make sense? Please, I’m asking that things change. This is the second time this specific problem has happened.
See this thread; it’s specifically for Halo 5 bans.
The thing is multiplayer needs to be balanced for it to be fair and for people to enjoy it, so a punishment for those who quit the game is logical.
Granted there are people who have legitimate reasons for leaving games (such as slow internet that hampers the team and other technical issues), but in a lot of cases it is impossible to tell those apart from the many people who quit out of boredom, frustration, etc.
There’s no foolproof way of sorting those categories, so a compromise has to be made.
