I’m sitting on my 4th day of being banned and I don’t know why! I was sitting idle on the matchmaking menu for a bit and when I came back to my console it said my console was temporarily banned from earning credits then after I cleared that message it popped up immediately after that that my gamertag was temporarily banned too. Why would I get banned for not even being in a game? This is the second time I’ve gotten banned for being idle on the menu screen too long.
appears to me that the console is temporarily excluded from earning credits
only my console
I GOT BANNED FROM EARNING CREDITS:/ IDK WHY THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK IS MY FRIEND WAS PLAYING AND HE HAD SOME GAMES WHERE HE GOT 0 KILLS BUT IDK WHY ID BE BANNED IT REALLY BLOWS AND IS PRETTY STUPID JUST SAYING
Thanks a lot for the answer 
I read through the forum and understand now how the system functions.
My son has the same problem of playing with 0 kills. We as beginners find it really hard to compete against fully armored and equipped opponents. We shoot at somebody, his armor glows, he shoots back and we die instantly. It is not that we don’t try and the comments of others are not very helpful telling us not only to run around but better shoot somebody.
Could you please give us advice where to practice the multiplayer environment without getting AFKed? Can we collect credits somewhere else to improve our equipment?
How come that within seconds other players have much better weapons than me? I found a grenade launcher once in about 40 games.
Thank you for taking the time to give people feedback. I really appreciate.
Have a nice day,
Kraehe
ALL I DID WAS TRY TO LEVEL UP BY COMPLETING MOST OF THE DAILY AND WEEKLY CHALLENGES, AND PLAYING FIREFIGHT MATCHMAKING SCORE ATTACK. I PLAYED ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY MOSTLY 10 TO 12 HOURS A DAY. EARNING A LARGE AMOUNT OF CREDITS HOW DO YOU GET CREDIT BANNED BY PUTTING IN A LOT OF TIME AND EFFORT INTO A GAME THAT YOU LOVE TO PLAY! HOW DO I GET CREDIT UNBANNED SO I CAN CONTINUE MY QUEST. TWO WEEKS AGO MY CONSOLE AND ACCOUNT WAS BANNED, AND NOW MY ACCOUNT WAS CREDIT BANNED ON MONDAY. HOW CAN THIS GET FIXED. MY SON BARELY EVEN PLAYS AND HIS CONSOLE IS NOW CREDIT BANNED TEMPORARLEY. CAN SOME ONE TELL ME HOW THIS CAN BE RESOLVED!
> I was playing last night for a couple of hours trying to finish up the daily challenge when I received the temp credit ban message. I have never seen this message before. I am looking for help to figure out why this occurred;especially since I was only 5 wins away from finishing. Any help would be greatly appreciated…especially if I can get the ban lifted. Thanks ahead time for any help and / or advice.
You were banned for being AFK in this game: Slayer DMRs on Countdown
First time bans tend to last 24-48 hours.
> Is it possible for a first time ban to be longer than 24-48 hours? Last night my friend and I AFKed in 4 games of arcadefight so I know it was deserved. Just wondering how long it will be. I’m guessing this one will be 24-48 considering it is my first ban and the offense was minimal?
It should last 24-48 hours unless it is a modding offence which tend to be permanent.

What is the exact ban message you have?

If your console is credit banned, someone on your console received a credit ban on their account.

If he was your guest, you are banned to prevent guest boosting.

I would highly advise playing custom games and heading into Forge to learn the power weapons spawns, they are layed around every map.

Thank you for the answer. How can I check if it will be permanent or not? And what would constitute a modding ban? All I did was AFK a few times.

It won’t be permanent if it was for AFKing.
As to what triggers a modding ban, modding the game does.
