Halo 3 Console Banned for One Week?

Hello, this may be the wrong section to post this in and if it is I apologize and would like to request a move. I still play H3 quite regularly and competitively. I’m not trying to be overly cocky or anything but I almost win every game, (this new tag project is 105 for 122 with a 50 in doubles and working in other playlists.) With that being said, I feel as if the mass amount of games I win (in lone wolves) I get complaints filed and avoided rep for beating these newer players. I would like to request a reason why I was banned or if maybe the ban was injust. As I said if this is the wrong section I would like to request a move but I would really like an answer. Thanks and have a lovely day. (PS Microsofts legal team told me to post here since it’s a game specific ban).

wow, i second this big time man! i’ve had several lone wolf 50’s, and i created a new account to get another one last week. i’ve literally gotten 1st in 88 games and one 2nd. a lot of people try to report me for cheating, and i’d imagine that’s why i’ve been banned.

i think we both need some justice. it’s completely unfair that we’re banned for being good. please look into this 343.

I’m not sure if my query will even be looked in to or even reviewed by an Administrator, I just wish they would be. It’s very unfair that because I make a new tag and beat lower levels with such a margin, 25-(1-4) and get complaints filed against me, I have to serve an unjust ban. It’s like I’m serving a ban for being too good to lower levels. I don’t understand it, and I’m still in search of a reply from an admin.

haha, same here man. i’m wondering if we ran into each other in lw this past week? i’m playing under the tag CarsonsBoyfrend.

Nope. I’m Obsidiuh.

> Nope. I’m Obsidiuh.

i feel like i’ve seen your name somewhere. i also played under a fake ogre 2 gamertag lol.

Was it IFBI 2gre? If it is then yes I’ve played you and beat you in doubles.

> Was it IFBI 2gre? If it is then yes I’ve played you and beat you in doubles.

there’s another one? haha. no, it’s the ogre 2 x or something like that. man… can’t believe i’m not the only loser doing that lol.

Can I receive an answer to this please?

You deserve an answer.

> Can I receive an answer to this please?

You expect an answer from 343? :smiley:

“I’m pretty sure caring about a dead game is a bannable offense”

Then there should be about 15,000-30,000 people banned for playing Call of Halofield 4, Judgment every day… because that game is dead. Believe me, I still try to play it and it’s the worst. Been heavily considering jumping back into Halo 3 to pick up those achievements on my new profile and to play some classic Halo.

Do it, population is still relatively big and the remaining community is awesome.

Same thing literally just happened to me. Me and my friend both got banned for being too good? I was wondering if you guys ever found an admin to reply or if u just had to wait the week out. Disappointed on how 343 has handled this. Kids can get mad for losing a game, file a complaint, and get their opponent banned? Why even play if I can get banned for being too good at the game? Ridiculous.

It’s automated. If any player on your team does not play the entire game for 2 or more consecutive matches the ban hammer will activate and ban your account.

If playing with guests and a guest does not play entire match for two consecutive games the same applies.

As long as no player goes idle and has a sufficient amount of stats the banhammer will not activate.

I’ve played around 6350 matches and won exactly 6000 exp worth of them. I have never been banned. Last time I checked the waypoint career through this site my halo 3 multiplayer kill death ratio was over a 6.0. I find it hard to believe that you or your friends stats come close to this and like I said… I’ve never been banned.
