this doesnt make sense

i was gone for 3 days and did not play destiny the day before that and yesterday when i came home and tried to play trials it said i was restricted due to unstable network connection. This cannot possibly be true because according to what the information in game displays i have a green bar and never go below that. I even asked the guys i play with and every single one said the never saw me under a green bar. What is going on?? And i already saw the restrictions page and it is not helpful. I do not have bad connection nor do i cheat in any way shape or form. I do not understand why I am restricted unjustly. If i did that or had bad connection i would understand but i dont so why?

  • There are Account Restrictions and Bans in Destiny. These are 2 separate entities. Account Restrictions are temporary, while Bans are permanent. [b]Bungie does not dispute (discuss) or overturn either of them.[/b] All you can do is wait it out.

  • Restrictions and Bans are handed out in waves, usually around every ~5 weeks or so. You can tell because every 4-5 weeks the forums swell with "WTF BANNED?!?!" threads over and over. So your restriction could be for something weeks ago, maybe even over a month ago. As of around June, Bungie has officially started restricting based on historic red-barring: meaning that if you had a tendency to have poor connection for a stretch they will restrict you as a "kick in the pants" to get you to fix the connection on your side if possible. This is on top of the normal reasons. A common reason is a "teammate" kicking opponents from Trials. So if you have played any Trials matches where the other team forfeited or only had 1-2 people a bunch of times -- then it's possible this is a reason as well. As Vince said below (above?) : Bungie does not discuss or debate bans + restrictions. Period. This is likely because EVERYONE would argue it... even though obviously cheating. Then, who do you let back in? The better liar?

    • Oh! Also, I believe they finally pulled the plug on Trials for Legacy systems: XBox 360 and PS3. Clicking your profile suggests you still play on a Legacy system. If true, then that's why. On August 16th they started separating Legacy from Current systems. Eventually, Legacy systems will not have access to: A) Iron Banner (but August will still run) B) Trials C) Live events (Valentine's Doubles / SRL / etc.) D) Future content updates

      • Hey there, In Destiny, there are 2 ways Bungie addresses Users that show misconduct. This is through Account Bans and Restrictions. Account Restrictions are temporary, while Bans are permanent. [b]Bungie does not discuss or dispute either of them.[/b] If you're questioning a Account Ban or Restriction, the link below could be the answer as to why you were banned or restricted. Please keep in mind that [u]Poor or Unstable Internet Connection does qualify for a Restriction or even Ban in serious instances.[/u] All relevant information can be found here: https://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Account-Restrictions-and-Banning-Policies/en/Help/Article/11929 Hope this helps!
