Credit Resets

Good evening, We are in the process of applying credit resets to approximately 15,000 users who we have identified as the most egregious Challenge Reset abusers. A one day credit earning ban has also been applied, mostly to ensure that recipients receive an in-game notification of the action taken. As with any such measure, we have taken the time to carefully select our criteria to eliminate false positives. A more comprehensive pass will be occuring in the coming week as our automated Banhammer mechanisms grow accurate enough to satisfy our high bar for burden of proof. If you are thinking about getting an easy 50k credits by using this exploit, I would strongly advise you to reconsider. Thank you, and please direct any discussion of these resets to this thread. [b]Edit 1[/b]: a point of clarification. No bans were handed out tonight for a) Playing too much Gruntpocalypse (no such thing!) b) Using the target locator too much (no such thing!) Specifically, we targeted an exploit that allowed players to complete a Challenge 20+ times via itentional network manipulation (i.e., disconnects.) Spot checks have revealed the telltale signature of this behavior on every denier so far, so don't be fooled by the protests of innocence. We aren't. [b]Edit 2[/b]: 1) If you have lost your Legendary Helmet or any other downloadable offers, you can re-download them via your Download History. We're not sure this is affecting anyone (we haven't reproduced it internally), but just in case it is, give this a try. 2) We won't be resetting Commendations, as we do not feel that the exploit used affected them. It would not be fair to people who did use the exploit but who wish to retain the record of their playstyle, and we cannot differentiate between the two systematically. Sorry.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] INCMartinThundr Bungie I want my rank back now you never said that this exploit would get you ban and you never mentioned this exploit before either and its not really an exploit its a creative use of game mechanics its not our fault you guys cant test a game. a warning to stop doing the target locate-er boost would have been nice and it was not necessary to reset us to rank 0 are you kidding me Bungie i got to major legit then i found out about the target Locate-er boost got to major grade 2 then got banned today give me my rank major back at least please, or if I must stay at rank 0 reset my commendations to so i can rank up again. Bungie dont be but hurt about your broken game is all i have to say. i payed 650$ total for this game so i could have fun and not get banned i want my 650$ handed to me on ur CEOs ass cheeks and ill give u my xbox and game back or u can give me my rank back. [/quote] You payed 650$ for Reach? Ha, your funny. Reach cost 150$ at the most. Add the new Xbox and it costs 450$.
