I dont judge about because you play it as a hobby.
Yes,its true that people quite often and then uneven games.
I dont get it with the suggestion to stop:
Do you want to know what I think should happen against uneven matches?

Agreed. I only quit if plagued by a glitch or major game error, can I ban microsoft for not fixing all the BS in warzone? Im aware that makes no sense but my point is clear. I have to deal with glitches to play the game, so they should deal with me quitting occasionally. Fair?
I am currently compiling a video collection of all the major problems in warzone to prove that i should have the right to quit sometimes.

You have way more than average DNF’s, perhaps you should look at your own setup if you are having that many glitches.

The game isn’t looking at why you quit. It knows the fact that you have quit.
As for “quitting occasionally”, where’s the line for “occasional”? You have 6 DNFs in one day and 7 the day before. That’s a total of 13 DNFs since the beginning of the week, and it’s only Monday.

Well ya that’s fair but what about the team your quitting on? Now if 5 people do that in a game or two do that in arena, what about the players left playing the game?
I believe there to be a glitch in the software that is identifying the wrong play or violating x box live terms. My son 8 years old is being banned for no reason he just legitimately plays Halo with wrong doing to his team mates or even act suspiciously. My son has no headset to talk crap to other players or text them. He doesn’t make friends online. This ban software is not working as it should and is causing alot of BS BANS. This is very frustrating to be banned for no good reason, if we’re gonna be banned can we have a reason as of now we have no idea why we’re being banned. The only reason I even have an xbox is just to play Halo, if this crap continues well be forced to leave xbox live for unfairness by your stupid software maybe you should get apple to help you with C++.

Your account has 4 DNFs today, across both Arena and Warzone. That could be why your account got a temp ban. The kind of behavior that can lead to bans is:
- Quitting - Getting disconnected a bunch - Betraying teammates - Idling - Suiciding
Why am I banned? again?
The last 3 warzone games I played I finished completely and didn’t do anything wrong. I played these on 12/20
The last Arena game I played was on 12/19 and I played through it doing nothing wrong.
Now I’m banned on both playlists after logging in 2-3 days later, what the -Yoink- 343.

I’m not sure what’s going on with your ban. What did the ban message/timer say when you logged in today? Were you banned when you last logged off Halo 5 2-3 days ago? Have you tried clearing your cache to see if that helps?

There was no timer when I logged in today. It just wont let me play social, ranked, or warzone. When I logged off a few days ago I wasn’t banned and got no message. How do I clear my cache?
I’m also banned from customs, even though I never play it. Didn’t know that was possible.

To clear your cache, either:
- Hold the power button of your console for like 10 seconds until the console turns off completely. - Turn off the console, unplug it from the power source for like 10 seconds, then plug it back in and turn it on.Are you also banned from Campaign? If you didn’t see a ban message, it sounds like there may be a problem connecting to multiplayer servers (which are also required for Forge and Custom Games). Either that, or you did something so bad that you got permabanned, but that doesn’t sound likely.

This may seem like a silly question, but is your gold still active? Also have you received any notifications from Microsoft? What kind of notice are you receiving when you try to enter a playlist?
Yeah I just got banned for no reason i finished a match then my Xbox froze came back on and it said I was banned… wonder why no one I know plays this

You have 6 DNFS in your last fifty matches. I’d say that was most likely the reason you were banned.

Why do you post here when you need no help?
Problem already solved?
I’m not sure why I was banned the past two times, which is over a day’s wait.
The first ban was justified–I had to keep taking calls and idled through a few games.
The second ban happened after my team’s victory in the post-game screen, where the host must have turned off the Xbox or the server shut down, which basically just crashed my session and forced a restart. Whatever the cause, it was absurd.
Third ban, still banned–I am wondering what the cause of the ban was. Looking at my last game in game history, it went to completion and I don’t see how I did anything violating any TOC…please tell me what the deal was.
Thanks,
Milton

Looking in your recent game history, as of this post your most recent games were two SWAT games. The Swatnums match was a DNF. I’m not necessarily saying you quit, even though your performance in that game could be indicative of a rage-quit. But you did not complete the game, for some reason. Now, the way Halo 5’s banhammer tends to work is when you do something that triggers a ban, it takes the system one extra activity for the ban to kick in. This is why you are banned, even though your most recent game (SWAT DMRs) was completed; you were banned for the previous DNF, not the game you finished. The banhammer just runs late.
This DNF you have on that Swatnums game is likely what caused your ban, and then because the ban didn’t kick in until after your next game, it might have seemed to you that you were getting banned for no reason.
