You just can't make this up man. Considering the fact that I described in detail the program and what's its purpose is for (cannot alter any files or inputs related to gaming) this is UNREAL!
GGs guys it's been real, but this is something I can't respect.
Anyone who genuinely cares about Destiny should grasp the importance of this display of openness and vulnerability from Joe and the rest of the team still working on the game.
Word of advice for the community, don't take it for granted.
When you've done over 50 campaigns and play a solo rts for fun and then go to xur before reset gets you permabanned cuz you left a program running
🤣
Words cannot provide enough detail of how stupid all of this is.
When others who have previously cheated and recov continue to play the game, it really makes me think bungie ain't thrilled with the dominance this team has achieved for the last 3 years.
The cherry picked ToS is literally the cherry on top
We got communication from Bungie that Cruz’s ban is final, and due to their ban evading policies he will not be allowed to make another account to compete in TFS.
He will still receive his Crota belt since they have no reason to believe any violation occurred in the races we won.
AS A RESULT OF THIS!....I have been perma-banned from a game I've played for 10 years.
Reached the pinnacle and affected thousands. I've always been an honest person which is why I'm stating EXACTLY what happened and why I was banned without any decision beyond...yup...ggs
No conversation...just a simple statement that they claim to be true.
For those wondering, when I play older Total War games (rts games if you don't know) the economy system is dated and I usually run a program to alleviate the system beyond what out-dated workshop mods can do.
Given my current thoughts over Destiny...this would be the time I'd genuinely ponder selling the belts like that scam tried to do the last time drama came around my way! 🤣
Ultimately this is the lesson I want EVERYONE to understand and fight to have, because this is unacceptable regardless of your belief that a program was worth perma banning or not.
The community deserves better. Unfortunately
@Bungie
hasn't shown any desire to benefit the player
@avcables
Sure I can understand that, but this is where logic and situation awareness come into play which is evident that bungie has none. No hey alert saying "hey you're running a disallowed, remove before playing further" or something like that right?
This is a "Do Better" situation
This program once again cannot alter any files as it strictly is limited to working with the economy of these games. I'm certain that after closing it (since I've been playing shogun 2 a lot lately) it was still active in the background.
Anyone else want Destiny to be harder? Not in a bullet-spongey way, more like a, you have to manage several things at once and THAT becomes the challenge combined with threatening enemies kind of way. 🤔
An appeal has been sent since that's what I was instructed to do.
I'll post an update here if I get any news.
I can't believe this is even happening though like fr...what is this system
People are really gonna be waiting from December 2023 -> June 2024 just to play an 8 mission campaign and a raid that ain't even gonna live up to the hype.
Not gonna hold my breath to be "proved wrong" this is insane. Please go find another game to care about! D2 future is bleak
Bungie has banned the 4x World First Raid Race winner Cruz with no warnings or a reason.
It's crazy that one of the top PvE players is banned while PvP is plagued with blatant cheaters.
Unless having it open is ILLEGAL than idk man like what is this company. IT CANNOT ALTER ANYTHING IN DESTINY....even if it could...they can see that NO VALUES WERE CHANGED
here's a description of essentially what the program could do so I could get elite units earlier in the RTS
Banned in a completely unrelated game...without ever even using it hahaha
The Destiny Difficulty we want

Root of Nightmares is about as hard as a Master Mars: Battleground
What a wonderful afternoon it is getting to see these two beauty's with my name on them. Thank you
@Bungie
and
@DestinyTheGame
for giving out a free reward to commemorate the rare achievement. Lastly, thank you to all 5 of my teammates I couldn't have done this without any of you
T - 5 days! I think it's about time to go and try to earn another one for the collection.
Also I finally invested in a home for the boys. Right behind my setup :)
I wanted to do something different this time around when posting about getting another World First belt.
This is a lil' tribute of my teams accomplishments.
Thank you
@Bungie
@DestinyTheGame
and the rest of the team behind these raids. Nothing feels better than winning a day one
I'm not gonna hide from what happened because it's inconceivable to me that a program to, for example, give money in a single player rts is bannable in D2
Hey guys, just wanted to let you all know that recently my girlfriend and I have been going through a rough spot and today she broke up with me. So yeah, just been going through it recently which is why I haven't been around very much.
Update: I still stand by this tweet. This experience for Destiny is the absolute peak in regards to everything. Even with the W, this can never happen again.
One thing the "don't make the game harder" crowd doesn't seem to understand is that we (the people who want the game to be more challenging) don't want the entire game to be super difficult.
There's a reason Master>Legend>Adept exist. Make these difficulty options matter more!
Destiny 2 had its 5 year anniversary the other day. In 2 months it'll be my 4 year anniversary working on my body and my mind in the gym. I'm proud of what I've been able to accomplish over those years and to be labeled as an exception rather than the standard.
#RiseAbove
baby
As an elitist, casual-hating, endgame Destiny player. I personally believe that Destiny cannot reach the best version of itself while simply just attempting to make the game easier. Ultimately, I just want to see this game reach the potential that I believe it has. 1/3
This gotta be on an all-time list or something. The remaining employees probably fall in that category mentioned in the vid so the SMG gremlins get to stay on top 😤
So bungie changed the activities to have level caps because of our power crept abilities right? Well, what really sucks now is that our weapons (mainly primary's) feel super weak! Our weapons were already kind bad but now it's really noticeable. I miss the days when they hit hard
Sexy beast 😂
This has been a strange set of events. I'm thankful for the opportunity to represent myself from Jake and who knows maybe some more good comes from it all. ✌️
I was bored okay?! Anyway, now that I have your attention I've been inspired to get back into making sick content once again. I'm going to persevere through the challenges ahead of me. A poor pc setup, meh stream quality, and slow editing won't stop me.
The fact that destiny only gets updates in one aspect of the game at a time makes me believe that there has to be >100 active developers working on D2 at this point...which kinda sucka 😕
@eaonns
Thank you Eaonns. I attribute it to the fact that I know I'm 100% in the right and if the world is gonna say I'm not, then I don't need to associate with that anymore.
Go where you're valued in life.
I get that Destiny has pretty active developers that have solid communication with the community, but that doesn't mean that they aren't out of touch with what this game needs to improve. I'd love for them to invite some more trustworthy upper-level* players and hear them out.
@avcables
Sure I can understand that, but this is where logic and situation awareness come into play which is evident that bungie has none. No hey alert saying "hey you're running a disallowed, remove before playing further" or something like that right?
This is a "Do Better" situation
Where did this bungie go? It would be really nice to have a certain quick swapping feature reverted the same way this shoulder charge movement nerf got reverted back in the Go-Fast days.
I also don't wanna be that guy, but Bungie's A team isn't working on Destiny anymore and it seems unlikely that we'll ever get another "glory days" period 😕
*This doesn't mean I don't enjoy playing tho*
also I concur with Above about what we as a community are kind of owed ngl
I don't want to be that guy. I really don't.
I so badly want this game to succeed.
But at a certain point, it only feels fair that as paying customers of this game, we are owed some sort of update on the weekly server issues, emergency maintenance, and frequent downtime.
How we're rolling up to
@GCXEvent

mfw you have a bunch of data around an individual leaking info yet continue inviting them to the private summit to get more info to leak.
Pick some better people lol
Our Security and Legal teams have reviewed irrefutable evidence, including video recordings, verified messages, and images demonstrating a pattern over time that confirm the same individual shared confidential information from Community Summits spanning multiple years.
@A_dmg04
@Bungie
@DestinyTheGame
I don't want to shroud the day with negativity so I just wanted to say that you and the rest of the community manager team do a fantastic job. So thank you for that.
@aviseis
It being in the background and unused was the trigger...ancient system detects executable as cheating since it can affect computer files.
That's the truth of the situation
If you've ever wanted to see a World First Raid Belt, then this Saturday at GCX is your chance. Our team
@ClanElysiumD2
is going to be there from 3-5pm est for pictures, signings, and any other PG thing you can think of lmao. Hope to see you there!
After taking a break post Day One clear and my 2nd Contest clear, I'm just REALLY glad that I've been enjoying Strand, because there isn't that much else that I'm enjoying all that much right now.
@evanf1997_
I think most of the dedicated fan base just wants to see the proper end of a story and then maybe monitor where the game goes from a distance. But it's certainly a natural breaking point for lots of different types of players.
