If you have ever complained about MLG players, you should read this. Some common issues that Matchmaking Kids have with MLG...

1.) "People take Halo way too seriously!" You would take it seriously also if you got paid to do so.
2.) "If you go to MLG tournaments, you have no life." You really can't say this if you have never been to an event. They are not nerd conventions, there are a lot of cool people and its a lot of fun.
3.) "Button glitches are not fair!" Button glitches are part of the game, so you can either use them to your advantage, or you can fall behind players who do use them. Your choice.
4.) "MLG is boring becuase all you use is BR." This is so far from true. Carbines, Snipers, Rocket Launchers, and other weapons are found in MLG gametypes.
5.) "It's not fair when everyone starts out with a BR." Wrong. What's not fair is when you spawn with a worthless SMG and have no way of defending yourself against an enemy that has a power weapon.
6.) "MLG people are jerks, they think they are better than everyone else." That's becuase we are better than everyone else. Nice try though.
7.) "People who play MLG don't have any skill, they just use cheap weapons and glitches." Take a look at these stats...

Notice my kills compared to other people's? It's called skill. I know, I know, it's only 2 games. But my OVERALL Kill/Death ratio (+1.6169) is probably higher than most of the people who are reading this.

Some people say "MLG players are only good becuase they use button glitches that take no skill." This is COMPLETELY UNTRUE. Anyone who thinks this really needs to get a grip... People say that doubleshotting and melee canceling don't take skill, but for some reason they can't do it. Also, if you want to play me 1v1 on your host, I will be happy to destroy you without using any button glitches at all.

I'm not trying to show off, I'm not trying to flame, and I'm not trying to be a jerk by making this thread. I'm trying to say that people who complain about button glitches really need to shut up, people who think MLG is unfair need a reality check, and people who think that MLG players are jerks need to grow some balls.

One more thing... people on these Bungie.net forums seem to lump "Button Glitchers," "Superbouncers," "Standby'ers," and "Boosters" all into one category of "cheaters." To even compare using button glitches to superbouncing or standbying is a complete joke. Honestly, duel-wielding is more unfair than using button glitches.

That's all,
Pulser

MLG players are pretty cool, but they play against normal players too much. They don't give us a chance, then they brag about being MLG after they kill the beginners. Pretty WEAK if you ask me...

People who say things like that are morons. There is no why to "be" MLG. That makes no sense, and anyone who says that is a retard in my opinion.

And for the record, anyone who wants to can call themself an "MLG player." But the people who go to tournaments and events are so far beyond others in skill. Most people who talk trash in Matchmaking don't understand that they are not even on the same level as people who play Halo competitively.

i've been to a MLG contest, and the rules stated that glitches weren't alowed. and for those who kids who think the BR is unfair is true. THEY CAN'T AIM!!! because some people can aim, so it's an unfair advantage. i use the BR all the time, or if a BR is unavailable, improvise!

The games I posted were Team Slayer games, not objective. If I wanted to, I could show you tons of stats where I got over 50 kills in an Oddball or CTF game.

i couldnt give a damn about being MLG or not. it's just a game used for entertainment and fun, so when you say people are taking Halo way to seriously by flaming MLG players, MLG is taking video games to seriously by making a Major League Gaming business

From reading your post, I can tell that you have obviously been to an Official MLG event. I assume that's what you mean by "contest." Nice try though.

Button glitches, nade glitches, reload glitches, and wall glitches are allowed by MLG. All other types of glitches are against the rules.

Taken from http://www.mlgpro.com/?q=procircuit/2007dallas

Official Halo 2 Rules

General Rules
1. No Grenade Jumping.
2. No getting on top of any Warlock Ledges.
3. No Super Bouncing.

19. No Warm-Up Games may be played outside of scheduled Warm-Up periods.
20. During scheduled Warm-Up periods the winners can stay, but the losers must get up. Teams still active in the Event have priority over open Stations during this time.
21. When Players are given the option of using Full-Screen, Teams can use 1-4 TVs.

24. Games started without the approval of a referee will be restarted.
25. If a Player/Team fails to report to their Station within 5 minutes of the announcement, they will Forfeit the Game. 10 minutes after the announcement, a Team will Forfeit their Best of 3 Game Match or the 2nd Game of their Best of 5 Game Match. 15 minutes after the announcement, a Team will Forfeit their Best of 5 Game Match.

Disqualification

That is quite possibly the stupidest post I have ever seen. MLG is the fastest-growing and most popular competitive league in the world (http://www.mlgpro.com/?q=node/147927). Take a loot at that link.

Done reading?

Appearently you are wrong.

No, not exactly. I drive to the events with my car and my driver's license. I use the money I earn working at my job to pay for Hotel, Gas, Entry Fee, and Food. Then I have fun competing and hanging out with my friends. Then I go home, and return to work/school/life.

Once again, nice try, but not quite.

If you have ever complained about MLG players, you should read this. Some common issues that Matchmaking Kids have with MLG...

1.) "People take Halo way too seriously!" You would take it seriously also if you got paid to do so.

Um, even if you get paid for something, and YOU DON'T, you can still take it too seriously. Most people refer to it as "workaholic". Anytime you let something such as a job, or in your case a hobby, become destructive to other aspects of their life, sociological or psychological, it is being taken too seriously. Nice try though.
2.) "If you go to MLG tournaments, you have no life." You really can't say this if you have never been to an event. They are not nerd conventions, there are a lot of cool people and its a lot of fun.
I've been to an MLG event, actually one of the first events in Washington D.C. a couple years ago. Guess what, the vast majority of the people there were immature ass-clowns. The people actually participating in the events (with the except of one) were egotistical immature ass-clowns. Why would I believe that it has changed any in a couple years when more ass-clowns have entered the MLG community. Nice try though
3.) "Button glitches are not fair!" Button glitches are part of the game, so you can either use them to your advantage, or you can fall behind players who do use them. Your choice.
Modding is also part of the game. It is exploiting things that are already in the game in a fashion they are not suppose to be. Button glitches exploit them by pressing a series of button, modding changes the base files for characters or weaponry. They both ideally deal with things that are natively in the game. Both are cheating! I'd rather lose a fair game then win by cheating. Grow a brain, if you had any self-respect, you would realize that modding and exploiting glitches are not that far apart. Nice try though.
4.) "MLG is boring becuase all you use is BR." This is so far from true. Carbines, Snipers, Rocket Launchers, and other weapons are found in MLG gametypes.
MLG takes out weapons that they see as being less skillful. However, if you were truly a skilled player, I would imagine that you would be able to compete against a wide variety of weaponry without requiring them to be removed. Don't want to get 'sprayed and prayed'? Don't go near someone with a dual. Not that hard of a concept. Don't want to get sword-whored? Don't go near him. It's not exactly difficult. However, MLG feels that the reduction of variety increases the "depth" of the game. Yeah, that makes sense... MLG believes that the drastic destruction of weapons balance adds balance to the game. Yeah, that makes sense....Nice try though
5.) "It's not fair when everyone starts out with a BR." Wrong. What's not fair is when you spawn with a worthless SMG and have no way of defending yourself against an enemy that has a power weapon.
Don't die and allow the other team to control all the power weapons. I thought you kids were suppose to be skilled. If you lack the amount of skill required of keeping the other team from controlling all the "power weapons" I'm pretty sure you should lose. As with spawning with a SMG. You do realize that if you kill the other team...that...they...will...spawn...with...a...SMG!! Holy hell, sounds fair to me. If you kill them, they spawn with an SMG, if they kill you, you should spawn with a SMG. Not a difficult concept. Nice try though
6.) "MLG people are jerks, they think they are better than everyone else." That's becuase we are better than everyone else. Nice try though.
No, no you're not. You are not better than every other Halo 2 player. Now, if you were the Ogres or such, maybe I might say that you have some room to brag, and then me pity you since you're wasting your life on a video game. Oh, and the VAST and I mean VAST majority of MLG kids are ass-clowns. No other community in the over-all Halo community is nearly as hated as MLG. Not even KSI. No other community in the overall Halo community has lead to an increase in cheating in MM as much as MLG has. No other community promotes the use of glitches/cheats in MM as MLG does. Should I continue? Nice try though[/i]
7.) "People who play MLG don't have any skill, they just use cheap weapons and glitches." Take a look at these stats...

Notice my kills compared to other people's? It's called skill. I know, I know, it's only 2 games. But my OVERALL Kill/Death ratio (+1.6169) is probably higher than most of the people who are reading this.


And here I thought that MLG kids weren't suppose to brag about their stats and especially not their K/D ratio because it shows how truly bad they are. I mean, I've seen that exact line posted countless times on this forum and others. I think my K/D ratio is around 1.25; and I'm a casual player, so your K/D ratio is nothing even close to spectacular.

I'm not trying to show off, I'm not trying to flame, and I'm not trying to be a jerk by making this thread. I'm trying to say that people who complain about button glitches really need to shut up, people who think MLG is unfair need a reality check, and people who think that MLG players are jerks need to grow some balls.

The people that complain about button glitches have a legitimate complaint. Bungie and XBL say its cheating. If you use them in MM, you are cheating. You have NOTHING valid or even remotely intelligent to try to counter that. Now, if MLG wants to allow rampant glitch exploitation in their tournaments, good for friggin' them, I couldn't care less. Just don't try to pass off your retarded version of the gameplay as the "superior, more skillful" approach. Now, i don't think MLG is unfair, I think it is a ridiculous dumb way to approach a game and it's gameplay. And I know for a fact that MLG players are jerks. No other community in the over-all Halo community contains nearly as many ass-clowns as the MLG community does. It's ironic because some of the moderators at MLG's own forum dislike the VAST majority of the kids that come there. As soon as HBO or RCG start promoting cheating or say that *THEY* know what is better for Halo than Bungie does, I'll believe that MLG kids aren't ass-clown. Nice try though

One more thing... people on these Bungie.net forums seem to lump "Button Glitchers," "Superbouncers," "Standby'ers," and "Boosters" all into one category of "cheaters." To even compare using button glitches to superbouncing or standbying is a complete joke. Honestly, duel-wielding is more unfair that button glitches.

That's all,
Pulser


See, thing is...they are all forms of cheating. And they all prove that you cannot play the game the way it was intended. If your teamwork or strategy is truly superior than the other teams, you wouldn't need glitches/exploits to win, now would you? The problem with you MLG kids is your attitude. And you all seem to have it. I've seen people who were once humble people on these forums become corrupted by the MLG attitude. So much so that I would never associate myself with them. I'd LOVE to hear your premises for your argument that dual-wielding is more unfair that animation glitches. Go ahead kid, try...I'd love to laugh at you more than I currently am.

Before you post, "that's all" maybe you should post something substantive first...

I peronally have no problem with MLG players...In fact, I practice all the time so as to get better and one day be in an MLG Tournament. I don't like getting trash-talked in the post-game report by a level twelve n00b who 'claims' to be MLG, but then he's not really MLG, is he? All I'm saying, is that if you get owned in a slayer game buy a legit MLG player, send him a friend request and ask him to help you get better...Honestly, it's not that hard to practice. That's what I do...

If you lack the amount of skill required of keeping the other team from controlling all the "power weapons" I'm pretty sure you should lose. As with spawning with a SMG. You do realize that if you kill the other team...that...they...will...spawn...with...a...SMG!! Holy hell, sounds fair to me. If you kill them, they spawn with an SMG, if they kill you, you should spawn with a SMG. Not a difficult concept. Nice try though
6.) "MLG people are jerks, they think they are better than everyone else." That's becuase we are better than everyone else. Nice try though.
No, no you're not. You are not better than every other Halo 2 player. Now, if you were the Ogres or such, maybe I might say that you have some room to brag, and then me pity you since you're wasting your life on a video game. Oh, and the VAST and I mean VAST majority of MLG kids are ass-clowns. No other community in the over-all Halo community is nearly as hated as MLG. Not even KSI. No other community in the overall Halo community has lead to an increase in cheating in MM as much as MLG has. No other community promotes the use of glitches/cheats in MM as MLG does. Should I continue? Nice try though[/i]
7.) "People who play MLG don't have any skill, they just use cheap weapons and glitches." Take a look at these stats...

Notice my kills compared to other people's? It's called skill. I know, I know, it's only 2 games. But my OVERALL Kill/Death ratio (+1.6169) is probably higher than most of the people who are reading this.


And here I thought that MLG kids weren't suppose to brag about their stats and especially not their K/D ratio because it shows how truly bad they are. I mean, I've seen that exact line posted countless times on this forum and others. I think my K/D ratio is around 1.25; and I'm a casual player, so your K/D ratio is nothing even close to spectacular.

I'm not trying to show off, I'm not trying to flame, and I'm not trying to be a jerk by making this thread. I'm trying to say that people who complain about button glitches really need to shut up, people who think MLG is unfair need a reality check, and people who think that MLG players are jerks need to grow some balls.

The people that complain about button glitches have a legitimate complaint. Bungie and XBL say its cheating. If you use them in MM, you are cheating. You have NOTHING valid or even remotely intelligent to try to counter that. Now, if MLG wants to allow rampant glitch exploitation in their tournaments, good for friggin' them, I couldn't care less. Just don't try to pass off your retarded version of the gameplay as the "superior, more skillful" approach. Now, i don't think MLG is unfair, I think it is a ridiculous dumb way to approach a game and it's gameplay. And I know for a fact that MLG players are jerks. No other community in the over-all Halo community contains nearly as many ass-clowns as the MLG community does. It's ironic because some of the moderators at MLG's own forum dislike the VAST majority of the kids that come there. As soon as HBO or RCG start promoting cheating or say that *THEY* know what is better for Halo than Bungie does, I'll believe that MLG kids aren't ass-clown. Nice try though

One more thing... people on these Bungie.net forums seem to lump "Button Glitchers," "Superbouncers," "Standby'ers," and "Boosters" all into one category of "cheaters." To even compare using button glitches to superbouncing or standbying is a complete joke. Honestly, duel-wielding is more unfair that button glitches.

That's all,
Pulser


See, thing is...they are all forms of cheating. And they all prove that you cannot play the game the way it was intended. If your teamwork or strategy is truly superior than the other teams, you wouldn't need glitches/exploits to win, now would you? The problem with you MLG kids is your attitude. And you all seem to have it. I've seen people who were once humble people on these forums become corrupted by the MLG attitude. So much so that I would never associate myself with them. I'd LOVE to hear your premises for your argument that dual-wielding is more unfair that animation glitches. Go ahead kid, try...I'd love to laugh at you more than I currently am.

Before you post, "that's all" maybe you should post something substantive first...


~B.B
First of all, thank you for being the first person to compose a remotely readable and intelligent post. While I have to say that all of your arguments are completely hollow in my opinion, I would at least like to give you credit for posting something well-written and intelligently thought out.

As for "button glitching" being considered "cheating" by Bungie, I have two responses for that.
1.) Honestly, I don't give a damn what Bungie consideres "cheating." I play by the MLG rulebook, and that's it. I consider Superbouncing cheating, but many people do not. However, according to MLG it is.
2.) I don't need "button glitches" to be good. I use button glitches frequently, but if they didn't exist, I would still be able to out-skill and out-think the majority of casual players who play Matchmaking.

no im not cause if you have to play video games to earn money instead of getting a real job i find that you are pathetic
you can work at mcdonalds while i play games.
I can honestly say that it takes more intelligence, dedication, and commitment to be Professional Halo 2 Player than it does to work at McDonald's.
i find it kinda effed up about this whole MLG thing that you make ridiculously stupid amounts of money for playing a game
Just to clear that up, I PERSONALLY do not get paid anything to play Halo. I am continuing to work towards that, and one day I hope to reach that goal.

doing an actual job for money, pales in comparison to playing a video game to earn cash. just think about it. I'm gonna lift this about 40 of these 50 lbs. crates and bags to finish this aisle, then move onto the next five, doing the exact thing over and over. or, a play a video game, easier than -blam!- to learn to play, and make money while doing so.
