Got Legit DDosed in Trials

Was up 4-2 in a game of Trials when all of a sudden, my whole team got booted from the game, and completely kicked off of our internet. There was no red bar connections, no lag, no signs of anyone being removed from the game. Now, before you accuse me of being another sore loser who claims to have been DDosed, all three of us being booted simultaneously doesn't seem like a coincidence or bad connection on our part. I looked them up on Guardian.gg and every game to that point on their card, they won with someone on the opposing team being disconnected... Two of those wins, they only had 7 COMBINED kills. I don't care that we lost, it just bothers me that some people have to resort to BS like this to play a video game. Not sure if Bungie can even do anything about this, but look out for these guys, and please report them! [spoiler]Ninja Edit: I've taken the liberty of removing the gaming account names of the person(s) who you stated were cheating. [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/126502065/0/0][u]Bungie takes reports and game bans VERY seriously[/u][/url], and so they carefully research those reports against their server logs for actual shenanigans (cheating/exploits). If those reports and the investigation bear fruit, the cheaters will be dealt with. But things like making a vid, creating a topic, and/or naming them here on the forums serves no purpose and has no benefit. [b]If you have used [u][url=http://i.imgur.com/zNRO5Qg.png]the in-game report tool[/url][/u], then you've done your part. And thank you for doing so.[/b] For those who want to take the extra step, or were kicked from the game (and are unable to access the reporting tool), Bungie has created a [u][url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Troubleshoot?oid=13967]Cheating Submission Form[/url][/u] that allows players to find the PGCR (Post Game Carnage Report) from their personal history, fill out an official report, describe the cheating, and even link a vid (if they have one). [b]Please feel free and encouraged to use this tool, [u]but pay close attention to the warnings on the form[/u][/b]. * If you are not confident that a player was cheating, do not use this form. * Abuse of this contact form may result in account restrictions. * Fraudulent reports and submissions unrelated to cheating may result in disciplinary actions against your account.

  • DDOSing is a federal crime and is punishable by up to 10 years in prison. I only know this as it was a big thing to do in BO2 back in league play, and YouTubers brought the punishment to light for the community, not sure about other countries, but they will have similar laws. Unfortunately the likelihood of anyone getting any real punishment is slim to none, even though it could literally cost people their lives, you never know who you're DDOSing.

  • Hey JLo, If you think you may have been a victim of DDOS'ing, then the best thing you can do is report them using the in game reporting feature. This help article should give some useful information as to what you can do and how you can do it https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Troubleshoot?oid=13967

      • I looked in your match history and saw the last match you were disconnected from, and immediately recognize the names on the other fire team. I don't have to look them up because I already have and know full well that they have a history of their games being won against teams whose members are disconnected. This is the history that you would see if someone was using a DOS attack to boot their opponents, and this is no doubt what likely happened to you. If you couldn't report them in game, report them using Bungie's online [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Troubleshoot?oid=13967]form[/url]. Anyone else that has taken the time to look through your history and found that match, I would encourage them to report that team as well. I will report them.

            • also, to the ninja or mentor who edited this. This is in regard to a KNOWN CHEATER who had been permabanned on another, minimally differently named account. Seriously, someone needs to get in touch with anyone who can relay this info directly to bungie staff before this person ruins a few thousand more peoples' experience with this game.

              • dont just report them here, report them directly to xbox Also, go into your router logs immediately, and get their IP info. Look up the ip and find the provider, and immediately call them and report this. These people are known abusers of cheating, have been banned before, and hopefully if at least one person takes the right steps this time they can face not only bans from all online play, but mandated avoidance of all online technology usage, and even jail time.

              • For the love of God, please report these guys. At least one of them has already been permanently banned and started an alt account. I'm not even on Xbox and I reported them.

                Might want to remove their gamertags from your post cause coc and stuff. Did you and your teammates report through the game and/or the website? If enough of the people they're coming across and possibly kicking report them, they probably will be restricted soon. Or in the case of the one of those individuals, probably a permanent console ban cause dumbass hasn't learned.

                  Normally I don't agree with naming and shaming, but those players are well known cheaters. Have had accounts previously banned. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/221640608/0/0 His alternate account that has been banned.
