killerdude1635 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 The whole system is completely bacon, and according to previous issues, it sometime happens randomly. There isn't much you can besides wait it out, since 343 has no contact info, there no way to ask them to reverse it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Bashful Brute Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 First offense: 24 hours Second offense: 2 weeks Third offense: forever ^ This. The most common way of getting cR banned is boosting or afking. If you or your guest gets no kills, the game thinks you are afking for cR. Or, if you sign in a bunch of secondary controllers in Grifball or SWAT, and the game detects it, you'll be cR banned. The ban can be contested, but I've never seen or heard of anyone getting the ban reversed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be mistaking a credit ban for hitting the credit cap lol When you hit the credit cap, a message will appear letting you know that you cannot earn any more credits that day (it's the same message that is used for normal credit bans), so don't worry too much.

Credit cap? I thought that was removed, and daily challenges and commendation completion ribbons don't count towards cap either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bashful Brute Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Credit cap? I thought that was removed, and daily challenges and commendation completion ribbons don't count towards cap either. The cR cap is now 200k I think. And no, challenges, commendations, everything count towards the cap. Every cR you earn counts for the cap. If you were cR banned, you'd know it. It would say, "this account has been temporarily banned from earning creadits". If you never saw that, you simply hit the cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hit cap yesterday, it was 150k for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishy Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Cant you get credit banned for doing a challenge and the turning off your router and then keep doing that? Yes, it's called challenge boosting. You can get permanent credit banned if caught, and addition your route would fry out depending how many times you reset it.

Cryphakon Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Your router isn't going to wear out from turning it off and on again. The physical button/switch might (100k uses) but the components won't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hit cap yesterday, it was 150k for me Commendations, ribbons, and in-game challenges have always counted toward the credit cap. The only way to earn credits that hasn't was the custom challenges, and that only lasted for about a month because people abused the crap out of it.

Vinyl Scratch Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Lol my first account was credit banned for 2 weeks on my first offense for boosting the olf FF glitch to get an easy inheritor lol...than my second current account was credit banned for 24 hours for achievement boositng lol How do you boost for achievements? It should really be called Achievement HUNTING. What, do they expect you to get them far in between and not often? Like it happens accidentally? Pfffft. Thats what achievements are there for, to claim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree...I am just glad because I did the achievement "hunting" before 343i took awaya bunch of the playlists...it is nearly impossble to get some the cheevos now. The only reason why I was cR banned was because the game though we were afking with our other controllers when in actuality, we were just using them to get certain achievements, I could care less about cR lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendaryHalt Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Okay, so why does my account say"this account has been temporarily banned from earning credits". Is it because I got several achievements in one day? Why have achievements if we can't "achieve" them? That's like giving someone goals to shoot for then saying, "but don't do them quickly or well; take your time." Who do I talk to about getting my account unbanned?

Caboose The Ace Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 (edited) legendaryhalt the reason for a credit ban is so you don't rank up to fast and to get you're account unbanned just wait 1 or 2 days then it should go and you can play as normal. EDIT You may instead have a credit cap that means nothing just wait 24 hours a credit ban means the game thinks you are boosting and for a first offense dishes out a 24 hour ban Edited December 14, 2013 by Ranger447 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShockGazm Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 I understand credit bans, and I do believe people should be punished for it but not being allowed to earn credits anymore is a bit much. The third (if infact the first being 24 hours and second being 2 weeks, options are true) should be Character Reset, start from scratch as if you've never played online before. That's fair, after all getting credits is rather time consuming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
