Exactly, and I was AfKing trying to boost or anything, I don’t like to cheat. But I will admit I did boost campaign comendation, but that shouldn’t count as anything…
I Got credit banned when i turned my Xbox on today and i would just like to know why? my GT is BLACKFLAG56 thanks in advance . I didnt hit the daily cap or anything either.
i was banned about a week ago when i lost connection to a game of grifball on that friday. previously in the week (monday i believe) i had lost connection from a game of invasion, followed by quiting 2 games back2back due to unstopable spawn camping on my team in invasion boneyad and grifball. after the 2nd quit it told me i was on probation, it then popped up every time i started up reach for the rest of the week ( of which i didn’t quit any games or lose connection) untill that friday when i lost connection one more time and it banned me.
even though the ban was only for 10 minutes, i was and still am furious over the fact that i got banned because i got disconnected. this is the first time i’ve ever been banned from any game. for 3 years i’ve played halo games and never did anything bad or wrong in the game or to people in the game ( i don’t even spawn camp people in any gametype ). it just saddens me that my spotless record has been tarnished due to 2 connection losses and 2 games that any person would quit out of for just reasons.

> If this is indeed the case we do understand your frustration. However, it is your sole responsibility to keep your account information secure and not share it with others who would abuse it. We have no way of detecting who is playing with your account, and if your gamertag is caught making naughty, you will be banned. Those are the rules.
> I didn’t do anything wrong, and you can’t prove it. Will you please reverse my ban?
> No. Like it says above, our automated system builds up a digital case of wrongdoing before any ban is enacted. If you accidentally disconnect a time or two you won’t get banned. Instead the system looks for patterns that can’t happen accidentally. If the banhammer detects enough wrongdoing, you were doing wrong. Case closed.
> Will posting in this thread guarantee my ban will be lifted and that someone will respond personally to every post?
> Unfortunately no. We simply don’t have enough eyes, ears and typing hands to respond to every single post. However, the community will help keep you honest. You have a public game history for everyone to see. If you post you were banned unjustly, the community is in their rights to check out your history to confirm or deny your claims. Please, just keep it clean.
> The purpose of this thread is to keep all questions pertaining to bans in one place. Without a megathread for such questions, the rest of the forum will almost certainly turn into a cavalcade of ban questions.

> If you were banned, and think you have a case this is the ONLY thread you should post in. If other moderators see posts pertaining to bans in other threads they will either be deleted outright or a kindhearted mod might just move the posts to this thread.
>
> If any users are caught habitually spamming ban threads in other threads we will consider that a violation of the forum terms of use. You will risk being banned here as well. We don’t want to have to ban anyone, but we do want an open, honest and positive place to post about all things Halo so a thread like this is necessary.

There is too much commendation boosting in your gaming history, and concerning that you are the second one being banned and having Campaign Commendation boosting, i bet that this is what get’s you banned!
I’ll take a guess and say there’s nothing you can do, but my buddy got credit banned yesterday. He was playing a round of firefight and suddenly found himself being disconnected and reconnected to xbox live about 10 different times during that round because of shaky internet (which has been a problem for quite a while now). I figured I’d try to help him out while he’s trying to find someone to contact about it. (I can’t give you his gamertag because I got this news from my clan’s FB page and I’m bad with connecting names to gamertags)
Aww thats messed up cause i bearly started doing the ONI glitch like 2 weeks ago and looked up on here if it would get you banned and everywhere said no. I thought campaign boosting was fine because you are not afffecting anyone elses gameplay but your own? And as for the flawless cowboy i just ran like hell through winter contingency. Its fine though only 2 weeks. I also love Battlefield so the beta will help me ease through the 2 weeks. Thanks for the info though.
Yah, the only close to bad thin g I did was Campaign Commendation boosting, but I thought that didn’t matter, but anyways I don’t think it was worth a perma-ban?
hello i just want to know why am i temporarily banned from earning credits in my console with my account what is going on can anybody have something to say please help thanks
soo because i have to leave 4 a couple of minutes i get banned that s no criteria i think thats my opinion if i was in anouther game mode that the outher players dont kill me often thats alright?i dont know the outher players how am i boosting simply the games goes one after anouther and dont send me to menu thats my fault?how long is normaly this bans?i really like the game i think the outhers games developers have to learn with bungie but this is pushing people away from halo since gears and battlefield are online fire take care

You were credit banned for habitually resetting challenges.
