Now everyone knows that button glitches are considered cheating, so if you talk about them here...I won't do much, because I'm powerless on B.net.
But what about superjumping, it says in the Cheating FAQ that superjumping is too widespread to control. But I remember a moderator said that using a glitch to gain an unfair advantge over you oppenent is cheating. Well, those two contradict themselves, so I'm asking, which is it?

I'm sorry if this is considered talking about cheating in the forums.

Ok, well, that doesn't make much sense, so I'll pretend it does.

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

Its another glitch, just like button combos. Its considered cheating by Bungie and xbox live, but its not detectable, so you can't be banned for it (unless people put a lot of cheating feedback on you for doing it). Bungie has changed their stance on super bouncing since that FAQ was written. They are extremely busy though, so they have yet to edit the FAQ.

It violates the xbox live ToU, which should close the book on this discussion.

And, being that it is also a glitch that people use to gain an unfair advantage over the people who play by the rules with, you can't discuss this on the forums either.

It is cheating, because it breaks Section 10 of the Xbox Live Terms of Use, which bars people from exploiting glitches in the software.

As JROCK said, Bungie cannot ban you for superjumping, nor can they ban you for glitching, because it is undetectable by the Banhammer. Not because they choose to ignore the problem, but because they can't do anything about it.
