Banned from Halo Waypoint

There is the thread I believe I got banned for as no recent comments I've made today, at least, have been edited. Want to what for as far as I can summarize? "This post has been edited by a moderator. Please refrain from making posts that do not contribute to the topic at hand." The topic? Absolute respect for 343i now. My comments? OP: All these trials and tribulations and Halo 4 turned out to be great. Me: And if you DON'T believe that? OP: Then that's your opinion. This thread is my opinion. Every thread that talks about what someone feels is an opinion. I kind of think it goes without saying now. But if it makes you feel better I can edit the OP saying it's my opinion for anyone who will get upset. Me: It's just a question. Sure people can go around celebrating Halo and saying 343i did a dandy job...where exactly does that place people who don't believe they did a good job? Does that really constitute a ban to anybody? I just don't get it.

  • Problem is you think Halo 4 is a dandy game.

    • All you have to do is either not comment at all, or say positive things about Halo at the Waypoint. I do agree the mods are dumb, but a step to not getting banned is using common sense. I have been a member there for years, and I have never gotten even a warning. If you don't agree with what 343 is doing, keep it to yourself. 343 will ban you, and Bungie won't give a shit.

        75% of people who describe their bans from Waypoint do so in a "look at me! I'm such a victim, aren't I?" manner when in reality they were either being dicks or just didn't realize that you can't be as rude at Waypoint as you can be here. This is coming from a guy with something like 11 bans over there at this point, most of which were earned, but some of which were (I think) unjust. But that doesn't really matter. It's only BNetters who get banned over there so it's obviously your fault for not being able to adjust to a community where they don't want as much hostility. Your post was unproductive, verily so. What do you mean "where exactly does that place people who don't believe they did a good job?"; what answer did you want the OP to give?

          • Is there really anything to talk about over there anymore? Even if they open a Halo 5 forum 343 isn't going to show up and the Mods will simply banhammer you eventually if you're non-constructive, which is code for anyone with a negative opinion.

          • seriously, anyone who goes there not knowing that 343i doesn't allow criticism of their game is retarded

          • I got banned for saying "Halo 4 is the death of infection", in 1 line, out of a 2 paragraph post. Oh and the mods and admins, they don't care. I asked a mod once what I should do if I feel unjustly banned, she said I need to PM bs Angel on Twitter or somehow find another mod on xbox live. What a joke, I wish they got someone like DeeJ to be a community manager because bs angel is terrible at it, she doesn't respond to anything the community wants or needs from mu perspective.

            • Blatant censorship of criticism. They're immature man children on that forum and I'm never going there because of it. It's just as bad as the Bioware forums.

              I got banned today. Again of the second time unfairly. They seriously do not like people who can think for themselves and don't conform to the stupidity and insanity of the 343 fanboy bandwagon. Some dude said I could not 'adapt' to Reach and halo 4 gameplay (even though I clearly can with 2.0+ k/ds but that is beside the point). I replied saying I can adapt, and said something along the lines of how easy Reach/halo 4 gameplay is. Apparently that is ban worthy lol. You say something that remotely sounds 'mean' or that some forum goer may find offensive they will ban you. It's like a politically correct forum for Halo. "Don't say 343 or Halo 4 is bad or we'll ban ya", "don't try and correct an ignorant Halo player explaining why they are wrong (even when you have proof) or we'll ban ya", "and above all else don't think for yourself! because if you can't play nice with everyone on the forum because you aren't a pawn to stupidity we don't want you". They seriously hate players like me who enjoy games like halo 3 as well. Some dude says Halo 3 is trash and I say it's not and all the fanboys come raging in to attack me lol. that sums up that trash of a forum. So many ignorant users and mods who ban on their opinion and not what the actual rules are. They will [i]say[/i] your post is discriminatory or non-constructive just for the sake of banning you so no one can logically explain to them the fallacies in Halo 4 or 343.

                    • The mods over there are shitheads. Why do you even go on that site? If you're not a fanboy and critique 343 you get banned. It's pretty stupid.
