FourZeroTwo and Infinity Ward issue Bans!

4.4
As of 30 minutes ago, bans were handed out to all (or most?) of those who abused the Prestige Token Exploit. This info was released on the twitter page @fourzerotwo. Don't say we didn't tell you so.
This is a direct quote:
"Witness as the #MW3 ban hammer falleth. Prestige Token exploiters banned, stat reset & removed from leaderboards."
Please take a vow of silence for all those Gamertags that got banned for 2 days.

sorry for the stupid question but does this mean that everyone who has been caught has been banned and that's it now or will there be more bans like this coming for the same reason?
Thanks

Dear Activision/Infinity Ward/Robert Bowling,

Honestly what you are doing is not right. If a friend comes up to you and says, "Hey man, I know how to get unlimited prestige tokens, it only takes about 5 minuets!" You're gonna f*cking take the offer. People would use this glitch/exploit to their advantage, just like the javelin/care package glitch in MW2. Nobody got the ban hammer from that, people would just keep doing it to use it to their advantage to do better in the game. Just like this glitch, so why does it have to be different then any of the others, why can't you just patch it and that be the end of it. Instead of resetting all of us completely, swinging the ban hammer, and consider us all cheaters when it's your game that you f*cked up. YOU didn't test this. Of course people are gonna use this glitch, don't be f*cking stubborn. The fact that you are doing this when it is really your fault disgusts me. It ruins my taste for the Call of Duty series. I am never going to buy another COD again if I use a fun little glitch, that doesn't affect my gameplay whatsoever because this game is "balanced and every gun has equal power." You guys at Infinity Ward think your doing something good for the Call of Duty community, you're not, you're banning a good fraction of the community because of YOU'RE game YOU created, therefore YOU created the glitch, and this whole exploit is YOU'RE fault. Of course people are going to do it. You're acting like a bunch of fools at Infinity Ward, you need to chill out realize this is your mistake and you need to patch, not BAN a fraction of the community and think this mistake will go away, no it won't, it will stay with us forever and it will stay with you forever because YOU F*CKED UP YOUR OWN GAME. Consider what your doing. Don't act like my facts are wrong just because your leader of a big company, all my statements above are correct and there is pure evidence to prove it. You're ruining the series. Just. Consider.

Am I the only one who started reading the list of gamertags on the second picture and laughed at the GT that reads "Brick My Xbox"?

Monster9969 I laughed at my ban. I went and Twitter and thanked Robert Bowling personally. I told him when i came back that I was going straight to 10th prestige level 80. With no stops in the middle. Who cares if they ban you? Its the worst Modern Warfare of the series. Geez. I just love the fact that someone cared enough about little ole me to do something about it.

>implying you care since you gave them money
you're the loser here bro


No ****. Im implying my balls are bigger than yours. I go straight to the source. I just dont give a rats ****. Im only pissed at 14 year olds trying to piss me off. Like you. I thought the ban was hilarious.


Grow up. Some sort of respect for other people you have there, eh?
Also, It's your opinion if it's a bad game or not. Doesn't mean it is. - Only saying that because you didn't state that it was only just your opinion, and not trying to prove everyone wrong or something.

Glad to hear this news cause there is no need to boost to 10th cause what then just stay at 10th wow what fun 10th doesn't mean shit its just a level its not showing your skill that's done in game you could boost to 10th and still suck I seen loads of shit 10ths in this game so far I wonder how many are still in the game or if they are just legit 10ths with no life
