So me and my brother was playing some griftball on halo reach with two different accounts but on the same console. When I had company show up. So I let my son play for awhile while I was hanging out with the company. Both accounts were still playing which I didnt relize that was going to be an issue. Because he was only able to play one of the accounts. So one man stayed idle. The company left I decided to play some halo I got on and it says this console is temporary banned from receiving credits and this account is temporary banned from receiving credits. I was like what the hell is going on here. So I figured it must have some thing to do with the one account being idle. But don't understand why it was banned because it was on griftball and you can't boost on grftball because the idle man is always on your team. So Im not really sure why I was banned and if it was because of the idle man what did my character benefit from it. Im just a little upset because I paid good money to play and had no bad intentions. Please help me with figuring this out.

I dont know why your posting this on bungie.net? You should go to halo waypoint but theres no way getting you unbanned. If you AFK in matchmaking.

You were AFK. AFK will get you banned. The problem with this, the game only looks at kill count to see if you were AFK, if your kill count is 0, game thinks you are AFK, and too many of these will = bann. Now this sucks for players who are terrible, and can't get a kill, as the game will think they are AFK, and they will get banned. Bit of a flaw, and sucks for those people who are terrible. But that is how it works.

You just answered your own question: you got banned because you had an idle player. The game see's that as boosting because said player didn't get any kills.

Just fyi.. Idle player = afk = doing nothing for cR = banned. Just deal with it and wait until you can earn, you can still play the game. Their is nothing you can do or say to change the ban.
