devouringmean7 Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 So today I was playing Halo Reach and in the middle of one of games, a message popped up saying, "You have temporarily been banned from earning credits." I did nothing illegal, nor do I mod or credit farm. What did I do to earn this? And how long will the ban last? (ps: this is my first offense.)

Vore Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 First offense bans are usually 24-48 hours. As to why you got this ban that's between you and 343. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reptar Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Probably banned from past naughty events. It happened to me. I AFK'd a few times. About 7 months later, I get banned and reset. It just goes to show, play the game how it's supposed to be played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torint Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 You probably AFKed a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destyran Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 as long as you get 1 kill a game you wont be banned for afking and if you have been banned from earning credits you should know what you have done to be banned and first ban is 24-hour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrayForce Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 I'm kinda getting to the point where I'm terrified of being banned from credit earnings on Reach myself. If the server sees you idling during games, it counts it against you. Lately, however, if I'm in a matchmaking game with someone who is idling, then after the game... it will send me to the lobby with the message "Your party leader is marked as away" or some such and I often say to myself out loud, "... But I'm right here..." It's putting me on edge because I don't want to get banned, but I never idle in games. What's the point? I like to raise my commendation levels so I can get more credits... and idling doesn't help with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destyran Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 you wont get banned as long as you get at least a kill ok so dont stress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinite LuLz Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Plays big team battle on hermorage- Other team takes all useful vehicles and spawn kills me the entire match, not able to get anything good in the beginning because of network issues. Therefore most of my team quit. Doesn't get one kill the entire match and get reset for AFKing. LOL Nah, that didn't happen. But it would be pretty fun if it did right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destyran Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 i would rage so hard. Lol-cano but i doubt you will get banned for doing it once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
