Why Did I Get Banned - The Official Thread

So you have had the ban message for over two weeks and it still claims you are banned for another two weeks?

Are you doing the math right, because the cR ban always ends, two weeks later, on the exact minute it was given.

> I HAVE been credit banned for 2 weeks and 2 days an i am still banned i did nothin rong please msg back please.

I quick look through your game history showed nothing unusual. Take a look at this link, it might help answer your question: http://halo.xbox.com/Forums/yaf_postst20947_Why-Did-I-Get-Banned--The-Official-Thread.aspx

Random question regarding my post earlier. why might i have been banned? and it’s a two week credits ban not a 24-48 credit ban… and i’ve never been banned before.

DON’T KNOW WHAT I’VE DONE TO GET BANNED. MESSAGE SAYS I’M “TEMPRORARILY BANNED FROM EARNING CREDITS.” HOW DO I GET UNBANNED? I WAS IN FIREFIGHT MATCHMAKING. HOW LONG DOES TEMPORARILY LAST?

You don’t. All bans are final. Your ban could be anywhere from 24hours to two weeks.

You shouldn’t care about your credits. You can still play the game just as normal.

So, I was playing Big Team Battle today, and all of a sudden there is a host migration. Once it is over, everyone in my game is gone except me. The announcer says “Game over.” and I return to the lobby. Then I back out to see that I am temporarily banned. This isn’t this first time this has happened, in fact, I am getting quite annoyed with how frequently this is happening. Anyone know why this is happening? Would like to see this change.

That “host migration” is actually you lagging out of the game hence why you are ending up with the quit ban. If you haven’t reset your router/modem lately, give that a try. If you’re running on a wireless connection, try hardwiring in to your network connection.

It looks like you’re lagging out of too many games. How many machines are running on your internet connection?

My desktop, which is usually off, 3 laptops, and my xbox.

You had an AFK guest in this game: 2X Score Attack on Courtyard

Temporary bans tend to last 24-48 hours if it is a first time offence, any long is usually 1-2 weeks.

I have no idea what the date was. I think it was last sat which was 8 days ago

> > 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.

So I just finished a game of matchmaking and got the message: “This console has been permanently banned from matchmaking” Followed by: “This account has been permanently banned from matchmaking”

I have no idea why, any help would be awesome…

I have been banned once before without knowing why and I tried to get a explanation but I got nothing.

If this could be lifted I would really appreciate it.

I would hate to be a CoD player!

I feel quite happy to have figured this one out, you were using Network Manipulation, the dead giveaway was the fact you had ‘DOS’ in your Service Tag and a few games of zero score for everyone.

Dos???
I didn’t know I could get banned just for a tag, I thought they blocked bad tags???

Also, my connection isn’t the greatest and I have been getting stuck in the lobby temp banned for 15 minutes at a time, but I didn’t know those added up to a permanent ban??

You didn’t get banned for having the tag of DOS, you were banned for network manipulation, you don’t get permanent bans for anything other than modding or network manipulation.
