Nope. I can't be banned - I wrote the code for the site.

There is some disagreement as to whether using button combos is "cheating" or just through practice utilizing button combos to gain an advantage. While I agree that it certainly seems unfair at first when you are learning (as I am) I see it mostly as "learning your weapon system".
I doubt very seriously that anyone in actual combat would look at any tactic that gives them an "unfair" edge over an adversary as being "cheating", just a way to increase the odds.
Other than server / host manipulation or coding hacks, I have yet to find any of the glitches to be that much of an advantage. Most of the button combos can be learned by anybody. The perches gained through superjumps with a couple of exceptions (lockout being one) only put you in a position to get picked off yourself once someone discovers your location. As far as I've seen a lot of the off-map type locations are only gainable by using custom maps and setting extra shields. I'm sure there are ways of doing i in a match but I haven't really noticed many people doing it.
The one glitch that does drive me bonkers is the host advantage issue, particularly during Team SWAT.
ever seen the superbounce on burial mounds? the one where you can then get out of the map very fast, and be able to snipe from 3/4 of the top rim of the map. an experienced superbouncer prolly can get out of the map in less than a minute. take a snipe on the top of the rim, retreat and snipe from somewhere else.
who have you been playing that sits in one spot when they superbounce? only if they are brain dead would they stay in the same spot. sure, they dont have much room to move in some cases, but smart players use all the room they have and snipe from a slightly different location each time.
furthermore, you cant pick and choose which glitches you like and dislike. if you want one of them, you have to take all of them. a glitch is a glitch. superbounce = glitch, bxr and bxb and rrx = glitch therefore bxr = superbouncing = bxb = rrx
someone who says that they like superbouncing, but they hate bxr is a fool and ignorant. if you condemn one type of glitch but not another that makes you a hypocrite. so either accept all glitches or hate all of them. no in between on this one. if you accept all glitches, although morally wrong to those who have a shred of moral fiber left, at least you can stand up in what you believe in.
