    I was talking with tyler iz ill earlier today and he showed me and blacklabelfosho how he got fileshare banned, but not only that, he also got matchmaking banned. Why is this important? Its because if you mod, bungie might do the same to you, and just like tyler, bungie wont give you a warning. But, i would still mod, just dont release any of your mods.

    EDIT: Guys, also tyler didnt get just his account banned, he also got consle banned. Also, if a non-server con resigner gets leaked, we have to spread it around as fast as we can, so there would be way to many modders that bungie just can't ban them.

    Thanks for the 'heads up'

    When I'm able to mod, I'll be keeping it private and probably offline.

    Dont just keep all your modded maps. If everyone who could mod did that then where would we be, what fun are mods if you cant play them, its just modding to say you can mod, its stupid. If you dont want to be banned then just put them on your share for like 1 hour, or if you dont even want to do that than just share them in customs. Just dont post them in the bungie forums and you (if you play it smart) wont get banned. for example mxrider.

    They have your name embedded in the author name. That is pointless and will always come back around to ban you.

    that only works to fool the halo community. Bungie can still find out the real author, and ban him, not the guy with the name on the mod.

    Because if that were true i could get every modded map xsata'd, hex edit the names to a famous modder, and re release. Now they are all in his name. Then they look for original author (can be found, i know where it is) and ban that person.

    Note: The Original author (line xxxxxxxx) cannot be switched, it will make the map unusable/invalid/unplayable or not load whatsoever, ive tried

    EDIT: Good idea, i guess ill still have to keep mine private from now on, instead of giving some away to trusted people. Because thats still releasing.

    Well if you couldn't change the author name, you could just download a map from some one's fileshare and mod that.. So thats probably not why he got banned from matchmaking.

    IF bungie was really planning on banning all the modders who make maps like you claim, then why havent all the famous ones been banned? To me it doesnt seem like there banning to many people lately

    I think sharing mods virally in customs would be a good idea. Much better than fileshare sharing.

    1. You don't get banned.

    2. Since it's viral, only the better mods make it through the public filter. This will encourage better mods to be made.

    Why don't you just save your maps offline, because when you save things offline the author name doesn't appear.
