Yes I know there is a Banhammer thread and I have post this on this topic on there but are met with silence. If you direct me to the thread you WILL BE REPORTED!
What ive heard is 343i aimed the Banhammer towards the actual Leave game button in the menu so disconnects from bad servers don’t add to a ban. In my case a GREAT DEAL of my DNFs are from those lost connections and only a few are actual quits on my own free will (about 5 of them over 2 weeks). The Banhammer activates after only 1 actual quit and just seems to extend. In the past week I’ve gone from 10 min to 15 min to 30 min to 1 hour bans.
So are these bans all added up DNFs from disconnects to actual quits. Am I on probation for the week and it will reset within some time. Or disconnects from the servers add to the ban. I really would like to know because in my eyes this is getting out of hand. I see many post of people willingly quitting many matches that should add up to being put on probation and ban if continuing to quit. Many people being disconnected that shouldn’t be banned. And many complaining about being left alone in a match who should get a Mercy option.
PS Moniters maybe answer how these Banhammers work and give me as well as my friends who don’t know as well, some peace at mind instead of locking the thread and diverting us to a different game that works better (like every other game out there). When we ask people online we get different responses. I would like a clear answer instead of a lock or redirect please.

Feel free to report me
No one can say specifically how it works. All 343 has said is it is programmed to looked for habit behavior of quitting/disconnecting, going idle and/or excessive betrays and suicides. There really isn’t a known time constraint on offenses either. now if you are looking for specific numbers on how often you can commit offences you won’t find any. But it’s not hard to follow the rules not to get bans.
I have disconnected a few times… I have been booted for going afk a couple of times… I have accidentally suicides and even accidentally betrayed… I have yet to ever receive a ban because I don’t make a habit out of any of it. I finish the large majority of my games with no offences.

That’s what doesn’t make sense. In 1 day, 4 disconnects and 1 willing quit result in a ban. Something just isn’t right there.

Quitting is bad, don’t quit you won’t get banned. That’s the biz, sweetheart.

My life doesn’t revolve around a video game like yours. Reported
You are aware just cause you report us it doesn’t actually affect anything? It just notifies the monitors and they come check things out and determine if the post is ok or not.
please refer to the ban thread for all ban related questions

I have to break the rules to be reported, son. Otherwise, you are just trying to abuse the system.
Yeah OP no one knows what the ban threshold is. It does seem very random. I got my only two bans right after infection dropped. Have never really changed my gaming behavior, not sure why they got me then and never before or since. I think everything except ranked arena should have no bans and JIP.

Please only post if you know info about the ban system. And read the post on the fact that I have posted this on the Banhammer thread and they have been met with silence.

I hope 343i gives a response on the system. Cause my I only quit if I have to leave, which isn’t often. Maybe once every 14 matches. That’s why I’m wounding if the connection lost problem has something to do with it.

People debate on whether the disconnects count. I believe they do. When infection dropped the disconnects where horrible for a couple days. Thats when I got my last ban. And yes the ban thread is ignored as far as I can tell.
When I purposely quit of games I started getting bans, but nothing major since I’m not a habitual quitter. It’s been awhile since I quit, but the other day I got disconnected twice and I didn’t receive a ban even though I thought I would since the game doesn’t care how much time has passed since your last quit. So I don’t really know except that maybe it does have some leniency if you don’t server disconnect often.

The ban thread is ignored that’s why I did this. Also I hear mixed topics about disconnects counting or not.

They don’t. Disconnects do not show up on your history.

Disconnects show up as DNFs. I got disconnected playing infection on Backwoods. It showed the Spartans doing there stance before the game begins and I got disconnected. Didn’t even play the match.
Ok you quit you get banned. All quits add up and never go away. Some DC even count toward being banned due to someone could unplug their router or Xbox to quit the game.
Simple don’t quit and when you accidentally DC you won’t be banned
i was also informing you your empty report threat does not matter since technically you are the one breaking rules. Not the ones telling you where to properly post. Please refrain from childish replies back. Thanks

Mate, when I’ve been disconnected from a match. It hasn’t shown up in my history. Trust me I checked the last time it happened.

With that logic the Leave Game option should instead be the BAN FOR X TIME.
