Why Did I Get Banned - The Official Thread

I only got halo: Reach yesterday and i have banned from earning credits for 2 weeks
Can this please be resolved because i have played halo reach non-stop and enjoy myself with friends … I need to fix this?

i should no long be banned for achieveing credits to becuse i have a handy cap and i cant use my left arm good. if so can you tell me why?

Rant time!

I think the person who goes by the name of “TROubled Spartn” should get banned because he was able to betray me 3 consecutive times with out me having the option to boot him. Then when I finally betray him once i get booted… something doesn’t add up. I know i was wrong for betraying him but i was upset and i should of been able to boot him.

And I have saved the game.

my wife and I were banned from earning credits on reach. i would like to know as to why.

btw, it is -Yoink!- you guys do not have a direct contact support. my wife and i play the same game types with my sister and brother in law. we are unable to cheat since i do not have the equipment for it.

i know a ton of people try to get out of their Ban. i want to know why we are banned, if it is just the account or our xbox, and if there is a way for someone to check into it.

I have a lot of respect and alot of fun in the halo games and universe.

i would like to see a reply asap, email, or even a phone call would be nice.

please do not make this a bad experience for me and my wife for she started playing halo reach a few months ago and no one wants to lose a fan over something so trivial.

thank you

I logged on today and got the message that I’ve been temporarily banned from earning credits.

Here is my case. If somebody sees something that I am doing wrong, please let me know something other than a cryptic message about banned from earning credits with no idea of why or for how long.

My console isn’t hacked or tampered with in any way.

I don’t quit games (even when I get stuck with 5 on 3, 4 on 1, etc in team games).

I don’t intentionally kill myself.

I don’t intentionally kill my teammates.

I think I may have booted two or three people total since I’ve started playing.

My six year old son does play every now and then and he doesn’t play very well but even though he has some zero kill games, it is obvious I’m not running up my score by killing him since my K/D is negative as much as it is positive.

Finally, I do play the credit jackpot games a lot when they are available, but I don’t do anything else to credit farm or game the system in any way.

Thanks.

Your guest had 0 kills in many games, first time ban is 24h.

Put a BANNING SYSTEM IN GRIFBALL, I played a game with a group that had 5 players, 4 were on the opposing team and the 5th was on my team, well he sat there and betrayed the entire team, he personally betrayed me 9 times and we lost terribly, we never even got the ball. So please put a banning system in Grifball, maybe like 3-4 betrayals cuz they are common in Grifball, but 9 TIMES, no, fix this please.

i was banned becASUEI WAS PLAYING AND ALMOST EVERY GAME PEOLE QUITLIKE ONE OR 2 and i got baned i wasn not cheating

i did not quit

i do lag alot thow

so when i get host witch i do alot every one lags

i did not boost

So, i have an xbox live account (HundredEar9) and have been playing Halo:Reach. I was recently banned from gaining any credits.

My little brother (10 years) and father (44 years) have been playing as well, using my account. I was fully aware that they used my account, but they are not very good players and do not perform very well consistently.

I do understand that the system, or whatever detects it, may have thought they were boosting and idling but they werent.

Could someone please resolve this issue?

Thanks,
HundredEar9

Topic - credit banned

I have been credit banned twice now and i still am, me and a few friends had went to grifball and signed in one guest each. Now i know this playlist will allow a party of 8 players in and that 2 people can be on the xbox when doing this, so why allow this if you are only going to credit banned them? Its not like i went some playlist with 6 or 7 poeple and force the other team to lose. Going into Grifball with a party of 8 isn’t affecting readom poeple.

Well you should be permanently banned from the game IMO due to all the guest boosting you are doing. Boosting= not ok= cR ban. Enjoy your week long ban from pointless cR

Topic - HALO 3 Match Made Permanent Ban

NOTE:This all happened around 2007 and 2008

NOTE:My connection was and still sucks. This means that my ping is very high and will cause connectivity issues.

NOTE… again:Back then I wasn’t so bright at telling the difference between a host boot and connection problems… now I know.

NOTE… yet again:When I say “guy” I’m referring to his gamer-tag which is MODDSFORSALE.

NOTE:Looking back now, it seems that I was severely clueless of the entire situation.

I actually ended up getting permanent banned from Halo 3’s matchmaking when I started up the matchmaking and went into a game. I noticed that one of my teammates was standing still, but just thought he was using the bathroom or getting a drink. before I know it my screen went black and just thought that it was my connection being as it is. I then started to notice that that the other team was leaving the game. Surprisingly the guy standing still invited me to his lobby and we started up another game of matchmaking. I thought that I would help him since I thought he was AFK/AFC at the time. Another match started and again he was standing still and the same thing happened. Me being extremely stupid again, thought that it must be my connection and thought that I might get disconnected from Xbox Live. I didn’t… the same occurrence from before repeated itself. I asked the guy if he was host booting but their was no response. Baffled with the whole situation, I shrugged and blamed my connection and hoped that this would stop happening so that I can actually kill my enemies this time. I ended up staying in the guys lobby through multiple games thinking it was my connection being strange, however, this was far from the case. Back then I couldn’t really put the facts together so I just blamed my connection. The reason I always blame my connection is because the router that is used for my connection is immensely questionable. This being because when I would join a match in any game, like Gears of War, I would the match would lag that and I would get disconnected from Xbox Live here and there. Basically me blaming my connection all of the time is truly no joke and nothing to joke about.

How long is a first time temporary Xbox 360 console/Account cR ban?

The official message says “This Xbox 360 console has been temporarily banned from earning credits” “This account has been temporarily banned from earning credits”

How long does this last, again it is my first offense

If it’s your fist cR ban, it will last 24-48 hours.

Ok sounds good…not that I am stressing…I am still playing but cR dont mean much anymore lol

Still, it would be nice for them to include the length it would last in the messages

Hi,

I tried to play Reach today, and upon signing it I was told that my xbox has been permanently banned from Halo Reach. I would just like to know what the cause of this ban was, and if there was a number I could call to talk with a service employee.

Man, that sucks. I think you should call the Xbox/Microsoft guys or . . . post on the forums for help (which is what you are doing right now).
Just wondering, is it only Halo: Reach or other games as well?

Nice gamertag.

I let my 4 year old son begin playing and he has accumulated many games of negative kills under my guest tag. Apparently this is bannable, since I now have a temporary ban. How long is this ban for? Can I check it to see when it will end. And yes from now on he will play campaign.

Me and a friend got banned for boosting on rumble pit, can some tell me how long the ban is??? This would be my second time being credit banned. :frowning:

I have a friend that has recently started playing Halo Reach with me in the last month. My friend is playing as a guest on my account due to the fact that we do not have the money to get her a gold account of her own at the moment. I have now been credit banned twice in the last two weeks for a reason unknown to me, and would like to know what the problem is and how I can fix it. Thank you for your time and effort in solving this problem.
