AFK? Sorry. Don’t know that one. My son can barely move right now and is having a lot of difficultly with his controller. He was in a bad car accident and both hands are in casts. He knew he couldn’t do much but he wanted to play with his dad.

You were banned due to the accounts AFK activity, no one is accusing you of anything but that’s the reason you were banned and it will last 24-48 hours.

Thank you. I’ll play with him offline. Could you please tell me what AFK means.

AFK - Away from Keyboard

Although it is a common term for people who don’t play the game to get credits without effort, which is against the rules.

Thanks again.

I was banned last Tuesday, a week ago exactly. I was playing btb and my Fiance came over to my house to cook me supper, I got up to answer the door, and help her put some groceries away, I come back to the living room and I have a banned message. So I go all week, and I keep playing without credits. Sunday night I was at my friends house, we were playing and finally I started receiving credits again. Well Monday I come home from work and get on to play, and I am still banned, so here Tuesday the 17th I sit with my xbox on Reach in the console and still banned? any help??

help

Bans don’t always last one week, they could last anywhere between 1-2 weeks and longer depending on previous ban history.

As for the reason behind the ban, I’m going to guess it was for being AFK which you said, you stopped playing to help your fiancée out.

Thank you for replying, but I understand that I was afk and I got banned, but I don’t understand how I was able to get credits Sunday night, and now Monday and Tuesday I am back to to credits??

Is it the exact same ban message that is showing up?

Yes sir. It’s almost not worth playing if you can’t receive credits…lol

> Yes sir. It’s almost not worth playing if you can’t receive credits…lol

I may have missed it completely, but I can’t see why you were able to gain credits on the Sunday, maybe someone else can help you out here, I’m more of a guy that shows you why you were banned and how long you would be banned for.

Sorry I can’t be of much assistance.

Well thank you for trying, maybe someone from 343 will stop by and give me some insight lol

Would you please let me know why my account is banned from earning credits? It has been banned for several days from earning credits and twice in the last 2 days has been banned temporarily for quitting too many games.

I don’t ever quit games. I was just playing and got another temporary ban for quitting and I never quit this time either. I have no idea what is going on and would like this resolved please. Thank you

why was myself (brac12207) and i n33d a toil3t temp. banned from earning credits on halo reach? we have done nothing wrong and deserve an explaination… and btw what is the reasoning behing not updating the bungie website anymore?

Am currently getting the message of Xbox console and account being banned from earning credits. So my question is about how long does it last so i can get to earning credits. This like the first time this has happend in my long history of playing Halo multi-player in any of games?

Hello,
I was banned last Tuesday for credit earnings and another player that was with my on the same console was banned as well. However I was within the credit limit amount and haven’t got the slightest idea why we were banned. My partner and I accts are (Whatthegaybob, and Aridlemon46). I am concerned with how long the ban is seeing that Aridlemon46 was her first day playing on the account and we had just created it. As for Whatthegaybob I am just wondering how long it will be banned for.

Looks like several have been banned and don’t know why. I am thinking the computer might not always be right. I know I didn’t quit a bunch of games
