Getting banned for quitting social is idiotic.

There’s no rank, there’s no competitiveness, most social playlists are horrid and if I’m not having fun I’m gonna quit. There’s no reason I should be banned as their is no weight to the match it doesn’t matter. CSGO doesn’t do this, League doesn’t do this, Overwatch doesn’t do this. Halo 5 is the pinnacle of garbage ideas.

This is the ban thread. Ban related traffic goes here.

Quitters have a negative effect on a game, no matter if it’s competitive or not. ! I support banning all quitters no matter what the play list.

Quitting is idiotic…enjoy your bans may they be plentiful and extensive :slight_smile:

I see the tryhards have arrived already. You should not be punished for quitting in a social playlist. Ok for ranked but social is ridiculous.

Who cares if rank isn’t involved… You are still being selfish and ruining the game for other players by leaving them short handed.

being banned for quitting is pretty stupid, it’s a video game, if me quitting some how ruins the game for you then you take video games to seriously.

If you win or lose you literally gain nothing nor lose anything. No real money is on the line and you have no actual stake to the match. It’s one game of the thousands you will play it makes no actual difference at all. You’re playing for “fun” remember?

Did those games of Halo 3 or Halo 4 I quit back in the day matter up until now? nope! they didn’t matter. The Halo 5 ban system and the ideology of some you about banning is a giant weakness of the over game itself. I don’t support bans for quitting, if you quit that’s your business as far as I care and if I lose as a result of your quit I’ll surely live to play another game.

I have been banned for 3 days (happened 20 min ago) and yes if you look at my record I have several DNFs, but recently the game says that I disconnected from the server blah blah blah, and I want to know if is it my internet or is the company a bunch for -Yoinks!- and ban people for no reason. Hope someone can help. Also if there is a way to shorten your ban please let me know. Thanks!

Yes I play for fun… and you quitters quitting a game and leaving a team short handed and we just start losing and dying a lot…ISNT FUN!!.. so yes you deserve a ban when you rack up the quits.

You’ll have to learn to get over it, like seriously get over a loss it’s a video game. You’ll lose hundreds of games stop blaming everyone else.

Yeah I feel like social playlists should be there for people who could have to drop the game and quit in a second. Im busy I shouldn’t have to worry about getting banned over a non ranked match

You mean like how OP should get over being banned for quitting, too. Right? I mean, like you said. It’s a game. You quit, you get punished, move on with your life.

Yeah just dismiss the whole not fun part… quitters should learn to get over their bans… They must not want to play to much if they are quitting anyways.

As someone who plays a lot of Grifball, no. Quitters should get banned regardless of what mode they play. It’s no different from how Bungie treated it and it shouldnt be different here.

Why don’t you just get really good at the game, right? like get MLG pro at the game so when people quit you won’t even notice because you’ll be crushing it and you won’t be able to blame anyone when they quit because you’ll never lose.

Why don’t the quitters get good so they won’t quit when they are losing.

Unexpected things could come up you know, people do have lives. If a close relative is in the hospital and they asked for you and let’s say you are in the start of a diamond match in team arena are you gonna wait for the match to be over and risk that person dying or something? Or will you drop things and prioritize? Of course dying is a very exaggerated situation but if can happen, do you deserve the ban? No, but it’s not like you’ll be listened to and have the ban lifted. But either way people think what they think, do you.

You say that like it’s absolutely the only possible reason people quit and like you know every one who leaves a match quit and couldn’t have been disconnected. I can see that blaming other people seems to be your fall back excuse for losing.

How does the system tell if it is a connection error or a power outage or any number of unforeseen circumstances? What happens when you queue up for BTB and you’re getting nothing but pre-made lobbies of super try-hards and you’re team is getting annihilated? Quitting because you’re getting tired of a flawed matchmaking system is definitely not a negative effect, if anything it is a message to tell the developers to better the game as a result.

It is a simple fact from observation of gameplay… how come is it the majority of players who “disconnect”…aka quit… are always on the losing team or where going negative in a game?
