Should I just quit the game then?

The main way to find those to play forge maps and modes with is through The Official Halo discord which isn’t run by 343, nor is the Halo subreddit. Just a bunch of strange subjective ethics from the mods on who is in and who is out.

I asked a question before and got banned from both with no chance to appeal, I’ve tried. So what is my options to actually play the game?

Why would 343 use their main way to communicate through unofficial mods who are just people with too much power? Seems so strange would like a bit of light on this cause it really doesn’t make sense if that’s how it is?

What was the question that got you banned? Did you try appealing by opening a Halowaypoint ticket? There are some 343 employees on both Discord and Reddit. I guess this is what you get for “community driven”.

The official halo discord was/is created/overseen by 343. If you wish to appeal your ban there you would’ve received instructions to appeal via pm (and it wouldn’t have been due to simply asking a question.)
