> I should not be expected to play in a game when I know we are going to lose. I see my K/D substantially higher than that of my teammates (save maybe a few) and we’re still losing by a lot. Specifically I’m talking about Warzone, because it just happened. I was fighting tooth and nail to hold the fortress, only in vain. I ended up getting swarmed and we eventually lost the game. But that’s not the point. The point is, if my team is getting destroyed, I decide it’s not worth it, and I want to quit, there should be no consequences for that. It’s not fair to expect a good player to wait while his worthless team literally throw themselves at the enemy. I got banned for quitting 2 matches in a row because 1 was a bad team, and the second was my friend wanted to play, so I backed out. 2 matches and I get banned? Sounds like someone is a little power hungry 343. I was planning to come work for you, but seeing how the rules are over there, I may not be a good fit for your company.

> Get off your high horses, knock of the BS. I left 2 matches and they weren’t even ranked.
The game can’t detemine if a game is lost or not for either side. Games can be turned around.
You want the privilege of getting to quit without consequences because you’re better than others?

> Grifball is a fun game mode with hectic hammering, sword swinging and bombs exploding. Betrayals happen in the midst of all that. I have already been kicked once due to accidental betrayals and because I read that bans are in full effect in that game type, I no longer play it due to fear of accidental betrayals causing too many kicks, resulting in a temporary ban.

> This game type either needs to have no friendly fire or no betrayal kicking ability. I’m more for the former so that it isn’t possible to have a troll teammate continually kill you on purpose and not suffer repercussions.

> I know I’m not alone in the plight of betrayal kicks and bans from the Grifball playlist. It’s a fun game type and I want to play it without fearing the banhammer coming down because of Grifball’s inherent battle chaos.
This was two days ago. I was kicked once and stopped playing. Today I decided to risk it and play Grifball very carefully. I was able to get through five or six games before getting kicked once again, most the betrayals happen at the goal trying to protect it or at the ball when it spawns when all the enemies are rushing forward (but so are allies).
So, of course, I got kicked. Followed by a 30 minute ban. I know some people have received 7 hour bans, so I’m not that choked up about it. It has been 2 days since I was last kicked. I’ve played dozens of games since that point and yet, I get banned after another bad round for “Griefing players.”
In conclusion, I’m done with Grifball. I love the gametype, but there’s too much risk to play it solo queued. I hope this gets fixed in a future update.
What the actual crap? First, I get kicked from an assault game for falling off Tyrant twice, even though I’ve never played the map before, and despite that I had the most carrier kills on my team, and may have been the only person on my team who was running the bomb. Then, after completing my next CTF match, I get banned for griefing for literally no reason. The videos are there and bookmarked. I did nothing wrong, and have a ban on my record for NO GOOD REASON! Not happy. Very not happy.

Just… Man… 343, what the crap, man? Ban lifted, but I think I’m done. Bought the game. Bought both stupid req pack subscriptions. Even bought the pack that gave me the Mark V-ish armor. All of this money for a game with a skeletal campaign. No split screen. No film editing. Lottery style microtransactions. Massively downgraded customization options. And online MP is busted so freaking often. Either it’s down completely, or warzone is so glitchy that I have to restart the Xbox twice just to use REQs. Halo 4 was SO good, guys. I played it twice as much as Reach. And then you dropped this turd in our laps. And that’s what it is. A turd. It took your broken ban system for me to finally realize what a piece of trash Halo 5 turned out to be. I’m probably just unreasonably upset right now. More than likely, I’ll be back. But it won’t be today. Today, screw you guys.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BANHAMMER AGAIN FOR JOINING A FRIENDS FIRETEAM!!! No I wasn’t in a match but I love it so much that now I have to wait 9 hours to play…Oh well time for a different game.
Was banned last night for 9 hours because the servers booted me at least 6 times. Now I play 1 game and the server boots me. I’m now banned for 19 hours!
And I know its not my internet, its working great on everything else.

You have a habit of leaving. You have over 20 DNFs in past 4 days. A couple of them being ranked matches

You have over 5 Ranked DNF matches in the last 4 days. Slayer matches. Are Ranked matches DNFs Weighted?

Every DNF from the past 2 days are from the servers. I counted and its about 13. So 7 times were on purpose, and out of all the halo I play, that isn’t a habit.

Can’t do a wired connection. Anyways it doesn’t matter. By the time I get home from school tommorow my ban will be lifted. I really hope 343 fixes the f****** servers by then. I find it funny how they said there were xbox services down when they wernt.
I don’t think I’ve ever been as angry at 343 as I am now. But you know what, it may be a blessing in disquise. I have a math test tommorow, guess I’ll be studying tonight.

Ok, so I just got banned for allegedly “quitting too many times” which is total -Yoink-. I’ve only played two matches today. I started one match, realized it was a slaughter and left. I proceeded to play AND complete a Big Team Battle in which my Blue Team was winning. Immediately after beating it, I got banned. Can someone shed light on this?
I quit a game of Super Fiesta on arena, I then proceed to complete another game of Super Fiesta in a different lobby, but the game kicked me off (after the match was over) on the screen where you see the winning team. When I was kicked off I was banned from playing arena for a few minutes. This has happened to me three times so far (same scenario) and I was most recently banned from playing arena for 31 minutes. Is there anything I can do to stop this cycle?

Just curious, will the banhammer now strike at one quit? Because this happened because the game’s loading was glitchy looking then the game was laggy, so we bounced and the banhammer stuck me.
