Laggy Matchmaking got me banned

Not once, have I ever been banned from a game in my life, and I just got banned from playing halo 5 for doing absolutely nothing. All day the servers have been a complete mess, and I have not left any games today but for some reason the game will cut to matchmaking screen, and it gives me a warning. I just finished a game, got the DEFEAT sign, and it cuts me back to match making and says im banned.

343, you need to get your servers fixed, because this is 100% unacceptable for people who barely have any time to play games for a set period of time, and get banned because of your terrible servers. Dont know if they will read this, but I hope they do.

And before everyone says I have left games before in the past, I am aware of that, but I did not leave any games today or tonight. Very annoying.

Your DNF accumulate (to some degree) over time.

LOL I quit on average 3-4 games a night and have not been banned since the game was released hahaha.

You jelly?

I swear to god this “ban hammer strikes” thing is so gay. I was getting my butt handed to me by some camping noobs, who were making me rage, so I decided to quit before I cost myself 60 bucks for breaking a controller, and it says “THE BAN HAMMER STRIKES! you have been banned from arena matchmaking for quiting too many games” (which I haven’t quit a game other than this one time for months), and it says you are banned for 14:23, LIKE WHAT DOES THAT MEAN, IS IT 14 MINUTES, 14 HOURS, 14 DAYS, LIKE WHAT! COULD YOU BE MORE SPECIFIC PLEASE! Anyways I thought it was fine because I went back into matchmaking 5 minutes later, and it lets me play a swat game, and then when i finish the game it says that I’m not allowed to play arena matchmaking anymore and I’m sittin’ here like. “I JUST PLAYED A SWAT GAME, DID YOU NOT JUST SEE THAT?”, but anyways thats my story on this STUPID “ban hammer” (sorry for all caps rage).

Your very annoyed gamer

My Wi-Fi is horrible so whenever it craps out my game loses connection and kicks me out, this has never happened until today and really, why do they F***ing Punish Player For QUITTING??? WHAT THE HELL!

It’s kinda funny to see players admit they have quit games before but then when they “disconnect” they get a ban and they are upset… Well had you not quit those other games you wouldn’t have been banned. The ban hammer is incredibly lenient players who get banned, especially long bans, have earned them. Finishing enough games to avoid bans isn’t difficult at all.
