Banned from multiplayer

I would like to know why I was banned from Multiplayer for the next week! I have worked really hard in the lambo league racing the past few weeks and I get banned on the last day? I was getting wrecked left and right last night for no reason in the indy car league and lambo league. I got pissed off and wrecked them back and I get banned? I have been playing Forza online since forza 3 and have never gotten banned, and I have gotten wrecked by stupid people that go on multiplayer just to wreck people, multiple times. Last night I got wrecked 3 or 4 races in a row for no reason, so I wrecked them back and I got banned for it? I’m sorry for my actions if wrecking is so terrible considering I got wrecked first, apparently I’m not allowed to wreck them back cuz i’l get banned for it. Obviously you have no one watching the multiplayer racing, there are a bunch of morons that just plow into the field at full speed and there is no penalty and they don’t get kicked or anything. I have had to put up with this for years, and people that get banned don’t care and go back and do it again. Something has to be done about this, but please unban me, I was trying to actually race last night until a bunch of losers just kept wrecking everyone. If you look at my level and how many races ive won and i’m in the elite class, i’m actually a good racer and have been getting very good leaderboard times.

Sounds like you know exactly why you were banned
If they were deliberately wrecking you they were probably banned as well

I got **** ed off and wrecked them back and I get banned?

So what you are saying is they should do something about wreckers all while complaining that they have done something about a wrecker.

I remember racing against you, although I can confirm that you are a clean racer it doesn’t undo what you did, best thing is next time don’t lose your cool and do what these people have done to you…save replay and report.

I didn’t report you, but you did slam into me the first corner second lap of Sonoma and just drove off. That’s kind of messed up.

I apologize if I did slam into you, I may have just gone into the corner turn too fast and not been able to slow my car down enough, or may have gotten bumped from behind, but it was most likely not intentional. I don’t recognize your gamertag, but I don’t just wreck people all the time

As i’ve said, I have never been banned and i’ve been playing online since Forza 3 and have been wrecked countless times, I don’t see it necessary to ban me for a week for doing what so many people do, Ban me for a day, fine…but a week for getting a little too angry one night? because people report instead of sucking it up and racing. It’s like in real life…something happens and they sue sue sue, for a lot of money. It’s a video game, I don’t report people unless they r threatening me or harassing me or I find a good reason to report them other than an in game problem. I don’t want other people to get banned from a game they enjoy just like I don’t want to get banned, but obviously other people don’t care, they would rather other people like me not be able to enjoy the game, for a week…I swear, video games these days aren’t about having fun anymore if it’s competitive like league of legends, if you aren’t good or don’t do something correctly, you get reported.

now because of this i’m probably being watched and 1 report will probably get me banned again, even if it’s an accident

Accidental bumps or racing incidents will not result in bans.

Deliberate wrecking will.

Why the developers refuse to impose bans or have full sim damage enabled by default in MP lobbies is beyond understanding. Are they promoting Forza as an online destruction derby game? If so, can they at least take the trouble of having separate lobbies for clean, precision drivers and wreckers/casual racers?

I have almost given up on public lobbies due to the sheer racecraft people display. There’s no penalty system, no damage… and its a ‘free for all’. I have stuck to private lobbies for this reason, because at least it feels like a Forza game, where others also strive to drive properly and not ram into each other to get ahead. What’s the point really? Such folks just need to get Burnout or Destruction Derby and get it out their system.

So you want sim damage on in the hoppers so the wreckers can end your race in 1 hit?

CPL is definitely the answer so the wreckers are not there but sim damage on all the time is not the answer.

This is discussed in other threads on here.

Surprised this hasnt been locked yet. “Why am I banned” posts usually get squelched real quick.

Surprised why any of you should think you’re qualified to post in these threads. I have banned people for such actions before and it looks like I should start doing it again.

If you retaliate your as bad as the wreckers, end of.

Just let it go, and report them at the end of the race.

Nascar, I raced you a ton in the lambo league and agree you are a clean racer, unfortunately by you dealing with the wreckers by stooping to their level puts you in the firing line for the same bans they should be receiving. If you are fed up with them, save your replays and report them through appropriate channels so they can be dealt with accordingly.

The problem with you trying to wreck them back is that you are not only breaching the terms of use but also potentially wrecking other fair racers through collateral damage. I would be happy to hit some private lobbies with you when your ban is lifted, just hit me up if you see me online.

Lesson learned for all the clean racers who read the forums… Do not retaliate, report them as per Snowowls instructions, otherwise this is the same scenario you risk facing!

Suspended cause you “wrecked them back”

Don’t do that. Simple.

I too raced with you a lot during the Trofeo series and can vouch you race clean but losing your cool and purposefully wreaking will get you banned. It can get frustrating racing online but you have to be the bigger person. Even though I try to use Forza as a training tool during the winter, I have to remind myself it’s a game and most people don’t know how to race.
