The Official "I've been sent to Banadu" Thread
Been banned from matchmaking for modding, cheating, boosting, being a jerk? Post about it and how it was your little brother's fault here. Other threads about this subject can be locked and posters may end up as residents in the official Bungie.net version of Banadu.
Warnings were given:
[i]The Bad News First[/i]
From [url=http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=14568]July 3rd Weekly Update[/url]
[i]Recently, we’ve seen a moderate influx of things appearing in File Shares that don’t belong there. Some this is just tweaked content from Halo 3 that has been uploaded in sundry and illegal fashions. In fewer cases, there have been a relatively small number of incidents of folks uploading inappropriate non-game content to the File Share.
[b]Fair warning: Users who have modified content on their File Share - regardless of who created said content - will be subjected to the full power of the Banhammer’s thrust. This includes some never-before-unleashed technology that will effectively terminate your Halo multiplayer experience online in every imaginable facet.[/b] In fact, the ban is so thorough that simply calling it the Banhammer is a complete understatement. I just couldn’t come up with a more hyper-exaggerated term that had the same feel. Banplatform? Banpocalpyse? Banmageddnon? None of those did the trick.[/i]
Punishments are metered.
Justice is served.
Why so harsh? Because ultimately, the potential blowback for something like Fileshare is pretty grand. The Fileshare is not to enable players to put up whatever they want and think it's hilarious, regardless of how harmful or harmless [i]you[/i] think it is.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SqigGelZ1 This is a problem that has effected everyone. And i guess most of us have learned to play halo in a way that is offensive to bungie. Yes by all right they can banned us. but playin a game that has been taken over by booster and people cheating. Is it wrong for us to have no want or need to play any skill ranked games, and just play with friends were the game is unstressfull in a full room? why its seen as wrong? To be honest, bungie should first fix the game of boosted account, which are clearly seen everyday! fix the problem in swat with head shots!. host having a better chance of killing you! there is way worse things to deal with The only reason experiance has become a big deal, is that update with a single ranking system in ever game you play!. which in my opinion, made the game even worse!. why not keep all the possible booster accounts in a single ranked system (team doubles) and not in every other game that is fair and lower in chance of running into booster!. My account now has suffered the rath of the hammer!. and if you take a look at my account!. there was nothing aggainst the rules in anyway!. Yes i have left games in the past. Reasons for leaving:? (boosters) (friends that have sent me invites) (and just not feeling like playing) honestly [u][b]i could care less[/b][/u] about my rank. [u][b]i could care less[/b][/u] about exp!. and frankly, my account has nothing even close to the look of an account that is big on exp i gain exp the fair way and thats it!. i have friends that join me, and im sorry if we fill up a room. but if you can't join a ranked game, and your group is as big as a big team game. then banned me for using the game for the reason it was intended for!. to have fun!. and as of today bungie is wrong no matter what arguement you against that!. yes theres a reason to banned exp boosting. but theres never a reason to banned some one for playin the game correctly! [/quote]Just to let you know, [i]I could care less[/i] means that you [i]do[/i] care... So did you boost? Or quit like 500 games? [Edited on 11.07.2008 4:45 AM PST]
