so i just saw on the bungie forums the first time you would get a warning. Low and behold i have never had a warning before my connection is always good. I lagged 2/3 matches and boom i got banned. I sent an appeal and have yet to recieve a reply. Its been over a week, any mods/helpers here who can help me? Would be appreciated

the forum cannot assist with restrictions or bans. you will have to wait it out. that said, the restriction was placed only after a thorough examination by an actual person at bungie. depending on the length of time your restriction is in place, assuming is 2 weeks, this would have been the 2nd time you were caught with a bad connection. you would have had an on-screen prompt explaining you are having issues and if you continue playing this way you would be restricted.

There is no guarantee the appeal will yield a response (this is explained in the instructions before submitting it). Typically, a response is only given if Bungie needs more information or if they approve the appeal. You also said it only happened once, then said it happened in 2-3 games. If you lagged in those games, then you likely also lagged in others. Bungie determined that your connection was bad enough over multiple games (not just a small handful) to warrant issuing you a ban. First restriction is 2 weeks. Any additional restrictions are 2 months. Use this time to ensure you’ve done everything on your end to prevent lagging in the future.

If you got suspended for over a week that means your first suspension already occurred meaning you don’t get more warnings
