Now what is the point in this thread? Sure people who are rightly banned will post saying how they bought the game and shouldnt be, but there will be some who are unjustly banned. Has anyone actually heard of anyone being unbanned? I certainly havent and to my knowledge 343i dont even frequent this forum.

Did you hard reset your console?
Are you set to appear offline?

No I didn’t is it supposed to help? O.o and is it going to delete the game, because with my internet it takes me 4 days to download this game.

No. It will not delete the game. If I’m not mistaken you’re suffering from the fireteam glitch. Just unplug your console’s power cord for about a minute. Plug it back in. Go to your settings and make sure you are not set to appear offline. Then give Halo a try. That usually clears up the glitch.

Sorry, maybe one of the others will be able to help you out more. Chimera knows a lot more about the technical side of things than I do.

So no ideas? That’s unfortunate, maybe one of the other regulars can chime in.

Does one of you know a 343 rep I could talk to about that issue?.

I remember playing big team and infection with friends and we all wound up getting banned after about 2-3 matches one night because team trolls kept running in front of our shots and nades…people were literally running after our nades and sitting on them. We all got banned for like 48hrs because of this garbage.

I have had people wait till I fired a splaser or rocket and jump in front of it in warzone so they could kill me and take the weapon, but it’s a pretty rare occurrence. It seems more like you’re trying to blame others for that fact that you aren’t careful.

No offense but your opinion really means nothing to me in this matter. I have over 30,000 multiplayer games logged between H2 and H3, plus thousands more for the other titles. According to your Service Record, you haven’t played many games in any of the titles except H5 and your count here is even low.

Plus, you seem to have missed the part where I mentioned the fact that I submitted actual video proof for every instance, as did others on the original Bungie forums at the time. The problems from Reach and its bad reputation is partially what led to Bungie selling its last controlling share of the rights to the Halo franchise to 343 Industries.

I usually don’t respond when people make claims like yours, but it’s not cool to make claims about others when your “claims” are baseless and have no foundation. I truly do value, more highly, the opinion of those whom have tens of thousands of matchmade and multiplayer games like myself because we actually have an enormous amount of in-game experience compared to those who barely play.

Don’t believe my game count? You can check the stats of my previous accounts on the original Bungie website. My old gamertags are in my profile here.

The other huge problem that Halo has always suffered is that many of the devs and ban monitors rarely, if ever, play any of the Halo titles online. The accounts for the original Halo devs have barely any online games logged, which caused massive amounts of confusion between them and the community. Reason: devs thought the games worked flawlessly because they experienced no problems in their test environments and closed network gameplay, but the community had huge problems related to live, internationally connected gameplay. Many of the Bungie devs only ever put in about 50-200 games online and had no clue what was really going on with trolls and glitches.

There’s one original Bungie Halo dev who was famous for being rude on the forums and banning people on the Bungie site. He literally had about 26-50 games logged online and would tell people to shut up about their complaints and just ban them so that they couldn’t post anymore. After receiving hordes of complaints, he rarely ever posted on their official forums any further, but still never really played the Halo games online, yet was making decisions on updates and ban statuses for players, lol. This is part of the reason why I had sold Reach and my 360…I could not believe how the devs were treating their customers/fans. I came back to Halo with MCC (mainly for H2 and H3) and H5 because Bungie was no longer onboard.

That’s the kind of stuff that irks people beyond belief, and something you don’t seem to have experience with.

I’m really glad you managed to go through all four of my gamertags and then judge me based on their history. Oh wait you didn’t? and that wouldn’t be a good reason to judge someone even if you weren’t obviously and blatantly wrong? Next time, do some research before you try to deflect. You aren’t very good at making snap judgments, kiddo. if you want to actually learn something or have a decent conversation you should deal with what was actually pointed out or asked as opposed to trying to claim some kind of conspiracy. Not being interested in the opinions of others is a good reason not to post on a forum, if you just want to rant and have it go unanswered there are sites for that. The ban system exists, it isn’t going to go away if you clap for Tinkerbelle.

343 hasn’t actually had anyone respond in this thread yet. I doubt that will be the case. You could try reaching out through twitter or Reddit, but it’s just the community trying to be helpful here.

Cool story, nobody cares. Nice proof you provided too. Stop trying to act like you’re the forum admin…you post on here like 1000x a day and respond to nearly every thread trying to feel self important by thrusting your opinion upon everyone else.

Let us remember that you chose to make claims against my post and myself. I simply made a post here with my experiences and that was that. You decided to quote me and direct derogatory claims toward my experiences in my post by claiming that I intentionally bought Halo Reach to throw nades at my teammates. Take a chilllllllll pillllll dude.

You cannot make a claim against another’s experience, unless of course you’re a magician and time traveler that is.

You’re not a forum admin, nor a moderator so seriously chill out and let people post their opinions and experiences in peace. I never bothered you, nor anyone else on this forum, but you seem to enjoy calling people out with made up claims. I guess that’s why you’re known for being on the forums more than being in the game. Right now you look like a concern troll by anointing yourself the “prophet of the ban forum” and making your own determinations on peoples’ situations.

Not worth my time and won’t be responding to you any further because I believe you’re simply a troll trying to agitate me. I come on here to help people either by proposing ideas or posting my experiences for comparison, not so that self-proclaimed forum experts can nitpick and make stuff up about my posts.

Oh and I know you’re trolling because you said that people wouldn’t be running in front of friendly nades or bullets to cause betrayals and eventually bans, but here in this post on the waypoint forums, you stated that your teammates were trying to run in front of you and your teammates’ bullets so that they could get you booted and you called it trolling, as well:

So you quote my post and state that there’s no way people are running in front of me while shooting/nading to cause betrayals and that I was probably intentionally griefing, but here you are in your own post talking about how the exact same nonsense was happening to you. Stop responding to me and stop quoting my posts, you’re just trying to flame.

Hypocrite.

Let’s deal with these in order
A: Never claimed to be a mod, admin, or anything else of that nature. I have absolutely no desire to be. I’m on these forums to have fun when I have slow days at work or when the SO is out of town like this week. Which I’ll admit is making me a bit cranky this week.
B: I said it seemed like you were trying to blame people for you not be careful, not that you were griefing.
C: Repetition and more gobbeldy -Yoink!-.
D: No I have no desire to agitate anyone, I like to get the truth, knowledge, and what comports with reality. I consider it a boon to point out flawed logic and obvious deflections when I see them.
E: The post you quote is the same situation I mentioned in my first post in response to you. Someone trying to take my weapon, by getting me to kill myself. Not someone diving in front of bullets in order to get me booted. In the last 15 years I haven’t seen that. I haven’t trolled in a very long time, literally two accounts ago, when I was young and stupid. I’ve got no desire to waste my time in such a manner.
F: I haven’t flamed you. Have no intention of doing so.
G: Yet you try to flame me and rather poorly as well.

I have been banned for more than 24 hrs. I quit a couple matches and have been temporarily banned before. Lost a ranked match a few days ago the match ended and randomly popped up saying i disconnected from the match even though the match was already over I did not quit or disconnect the match clearly ended. I was then banned for literally no reason. This is a very harsh banning system im all for bans but never a permenant one.

And when your whole area has a connection problem and it disconnects you during a match and you get banned, do you deserve it?

Unfortunately…yes, because you are affecting the gameplay of others. 343 isn’t responsible for your internet.

You have 20 dnf’s in the last 8 days alone, including warzone and arena. That is the reason you are banned.
