I am still getting cheated!!!

WHY??

I thought the updates would be able to instantly get rid of people that pressed the standby button.

BANHAMMER exists, but it does not help at all.. look at my poll dude.. I just did a thread about that yesterday.. Bungie needs to pull their heads together and fix this thing.

What do you want us to do about it? Good god, all you have to do is leave feedback for cheating.

Bungie should put a reply system together reassuring you that the person you left feedback on has been banned, Also, they need a system to check host connection.. if it suddenly changes, then somethings wrong. Anybody can leave feedback saying someone cheated and they didn't. Some peoples' internet is so bad, they actually lag the game.

Bungie can't completely get rid of cheating. Stop whining.

All I'm asking is what does the Banhammer do, or stop people from doing?

And please don't act like you don't get upset when you get cheated

Actually, I don't get upset. After all, it's just a game.
The Banhammer scans every Xbox's HD as soon as the Xbox is signed onto Halo 2 in order to detect modified or hacked files, if it does, it bans them within the next 6 hours. It also monitors internet connections to see if there are any irregularities, which can be caused by stand-bying, bridging, and other things like that, and if there are any irregularities of a long period of time, it bans them. The latter part is the hardest because, well, it's just harder to detect.
I am not absolutely positive about any of this, only Bungie knows what the Banhammer really does and they aren't going to give the secret up.

Either you're lying or just extremly unlucky, I haven't been cheated once ever since the 1.5 banhammer update.

Modders are now almost non existent, simple detection of any softmod IMMEDIATELY bans you, not the 6 hour thing anymore. The only thing I would see are Bridgers, I think something was implemented to get rid of standbying.

Bungie is one of the few companies that care, and actually have a well developed anti cheating system for their game.

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.
