I will make this short and simple. Who Created Halo 2? Bungie. Therefore, who decides what is cheating? Bungie. I have no problem with button glitching, I do it in customs with friends, but never in matchmaking due to feedback. Here it is, courtesey of Achronos...

Some of you apparently lack basic reading comprehension. Stop picking and choosing between posts to suit your vision of "reality", and try reading them together. This includes you Predat0r, since you're apparently trying to run the thread off topic by trying to start yet another -blam!--fest about bugs, even though there are plenty of other threads about this and the issue has been beaten to death already. Do it again and you'll be banned for a while; I have little patience right now for more idiotic trolling like yours. If you don't like it, tough, go whine to the Halo2Sucks.com guys, they like talking about that kind of thing.
Here are the facts - these aren't "opinions", or whatever word you are using to avoid what you don't want to hear.
1. Any use of a glitch/bug in a game to acquire an advantage is cheating on Xbox Live. This includes but is not limited to superbouncing, flag through the wall tricks, leaving the map boundaries, triggering an animation bug using a sequence of button presses (BXR, etc.)
2. Anytime you see someone cheating, you should leave feedback on them, but it is up to you whether to do so. You define whether an action is cheating - you can define the above actions as normal, or be hardcore and define all of them as cheating. Since you're the one reporting the cheater, you get to be the ultimate arbiter of if cheating is occuring. This is a very obvious thing to say, but most people don't understand this.
3. Different organizations have different rules. When you're on Xbox Live, you have to deal with our rules (which are in point 1 and 2). This means that anybody who is bringing up "what MLG does" needs to pull their head out of their ass and look around. Are we talking about an MLG tournament? Is this the MLG web site? No! That means that we're talking about Bungie rules for playing on Xbox Live. MLG is free to define whatever rules they want, and in their rules, button combos are part of the game. Super jumping (I believe) is not. But as what they do is off topic to this discussion, you need to stop talking about it like it matters to what happens on Xbox Live, because it doesn't.
Now, I'll let this thread continue, but you people need to stop dancing around the points made above - they are not opinions, they are "how it is."
I think he made it apparent...so quit -blam!-ing about it and play the game. You don't like it in matchmaking? Don't play matcmaking.
