this was originally a thread about PC users getting banned for no reason at launch, just like they did in the beta; i made a post back then to say that people were getting banned unfairly with the new anti-cheat system, i was told i was wrong - - cozmo has returned to re-affirm he stands in the same place as before
this thread is now being used to advocate a bungie response to much bigger problems, with much more support; i feel cozmo only replied to this thread because it was personal to him; old post in question :

[u][b]IMPORTANT UPDATE[/b][/u]
[i]The quote of "only 400 banned" is a number used for PERMA BANS. Thousands of other guardians are still getting banned, but temporarily. Maybe for an hour or two at longest. That is still an issue. That is still wrong. Just because "only 400" have been banned forever, does not wash your hands of the thousands being banned temporarily for doing nothing wrong.[/i]

Ok - old
What I said in that post is still true today. None of the 3rd party overlays or performance tools like Discord, Xsplit, OBS, RTSS, etc. will cause a player to be banned, you can read more about that [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/46101]here[/url]. If you are trying to attach cheat tools, debuggers, or manipulate games files, those are things that can result in a ban.
