and its the servers.

It’s very unfair to a new player like me because I I am banned for over 2 hrs and I got Kick from the end of the game and I don’t think it is wrong for the game to do that to me I did nothing to violate the rules and it’s really annoying and I just want to play. Please in some way un ban me.

Whenever I am playing a breakout game and get invited to a party it drops me out of the fire team and the game if I am playing. Even if it is just a chat party. I can play other games while in party and multi player, but whenever I play Halo I get backed out in the middle of a game. I am curious if this is a server related issue or not, as I have checked with my ISP multiple times and everything pings well on their end.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as a 3 hour ban is kinda lame when I was in the middle of a game.

The banhammer should be temporary removed from the game so that they can fix the kicked out scenario, or take the fast route for now and make kicked out not count towards the banhammer. Just today I’ve been twice because of 343 servers kicking me out.

Happened so many times that now its 1 hour ban …
343 please fix this sh*t

Dude what the actual f**k!!! I keep getting disconnected from the GD game and I keep getting banned OVER AND OVER. THIS FREAKING BS, FIX THIS 343

If the dedicated servers drop you it doesn’t show up as a Dnf on your service record. If there is a problem with your internet or if you quit then it does show up as a Dnf.

Got banned for ~3 hours for quitting (I had left one game and after finishing the next one I got a disconnect error and ban). How long would I have to go with a flawless record after the ban is over until its safe to just quit once again? I kinda miss how at least in Reach you got a warning that further misbehavior would lead to ban, and when you were safe again, the warning would stop.

Note: I don’t intend to start leaving matches like mad once I know I’m safe. Also, the ban was for arena only, and I was able to play warzone, but I’m trying to max out my assault rifle commendation in infection.

It’s a percentage thing. Your quit percentage has to be below a certain level (unknown) so it all depends on games played and amount of quits.

> I did not quit no games, I was kicked out repeatedly while trying to start a game with the error "my fire team has change ", I was the only person on my fireteam. it’s not my fault i was kick off I should not be banned at all for the server mistakes.

7 dnf games in the first three pages…

If it’s disconnections or you actually leaving it still counts… it sucks but you have to deal. If you do just quit then your ban will only get bigger and bigger

I got banned twice today for quitting. I have left an already started match. Is anyone else having the same issue

Well i dont know what could have me banned since i dont use my mic i got pissed when we won in a total normal game and kicked me out without my ultrare rewards but looks like ill Just have to grin and bear it, great

I was banned once yesterday and once today, I did not leave a game and I keep getting banned from leaving the lobby, don’t tell me that this is not the reason because it was… I left no game…

Got banned idk why. Got the game yesterday have been disconnected from the servers 90% of games. Lol this is unreal.

I got banned for 24 hours when I was playing forge. It was a connection lost ban in the middle of my forge session. I have a clip in my file share. Can someone tell me at what I did wrong.

1 DNF in your last 10 Warzone games, 2 DNFs in your last 10 Arena games. That probably contributed to your ban.

I’ve never been banned before the last couple weeks, but I’ve left probably 3 matches early because I’ve had to do other things and been randomly disconnected from about 10 games now where everybody in the whole game is kicked out and now I’m banned for 9 hours. I’m almost frustrated enough to uninstall the game at this point.
