I started playing reach the day it came out and for 8 and a half years I played it on a offline profile that never had live on my 360. This year I got live, and it asked me a misleading question and I ended up deleting my offline profile. I thought it was asking me which profile do you want to conjoin but I deleted it. I tried putting all my achievements and stuff into cloud storage hoping it would carry over to my Xbox one but when I opened reach on my Xbox one it said “do you want to forfeit 2,897,975 credits or start over as a new spartan” so I did forfeit the credits and it made me completely restart. Does anyone know anyway I can that I can get my spartan back and onto my Xbox one? My offline profile name was STAUSS. I was a general grade 3 and now it seems to be even harder to get credits with live.
Responded in another thread, but will respond here for others who have the same question - sorry to say but it’s not possible to get those back. This was something Bungie implemented to prevent players from boosting accounts offline and then taking them online.
Also OP - no need to post your question in multiple threads

Unfortunately, you have lost the account. The same thing happened to a family member of mine about a year ago.
If you started the account online and then played it offline, then you would have been fine. But since the account started offline before going online, then your account resets for reasons that stckrboy stated.
Very unfortunate

The Xbox One, both the console itself and its Xbox 360 emulators, do not support offline profiles. The only way to use the Xbox One is with an Xbox Live account, so as the data you wish to preserve was tied to an offline profile as opposed to an online account I don’t think it’s possible.
You could create an offline account and use an actual 360 console offline and grind those AFK sessions to get back to your original offline reach statistics. Then you could join live without loading reach and then download the account to your xbox one
