They didn't start doing it at first, but when the score was 43 to 38 (our lead) they started putting us in red connection.

There was a man from Allentown who fed his son to death.
He calmly watched him gorge himself until his final breath.
And there he stood, surprised and shocked above his tiny frame.
He said: "I bear no blame for this. I only share his name!"

Don't blame Bungie because people can be dicks.

I think you have the right idea. Everyone but the guy standbying lags like crazy and he takes advantage of that.

yeah that happened to me the other day, it happens alot to me it seems...

we(i was in a party of 4of us) were playing hardcore n we came against this other team. it was team slayer n they whooped our butts. at the end we said good game left n started up our next hardcore much.... thats when we realised it was the same 4 ppl. this time it was team odd ball on midship, there host. we were winning(the game had only been goin 4 a minit though) then all of a sudden "bam" everyone red bar but one of them. we were like damn standbyers but didnt say anything to them. about half a minit later there all like whats with the lag, what are you's tryin to do standbye or sumfin? when we new what they were tryin to do, especially now coz they guy that was sayin it was the only one in green.... they kept on sayin it again n agian but we never said anything back. pity they didnt know that we were all australians(in my party not there's) n they were from the us so were used to the lag anyway. all in all we kicked there butt even though they standbyed. if they didn't they proberly would of won lol....

also yesterday i was pplayin team slayer(again with the same party)on midship n there was 3 swords n 4 shotguns(no u are not seeing things, i thought i was at first too) what is with that? if that a form of moddin or is it standbyin in wepons or is it sumfin else?

Don't blam Bungie for the jackasses that cheat in a video game for a stupid number...Bungie did enough already by updating the patch.

That happened to me yesterday on team swords. Every time I went to slice the guy that had host, he would dissappear and then re-appear behind me and kill me. It happened every single time. I ended up playing against the same guy in the next game and he didn't draw host....I murdered him, so I got my revenge. Sometimes I think people don't even realize they are standbying (it's as simple as having too high of bandwith set on something like limewire when you draw host). Others do it intentionally and it sucks. I never understood the point of cheating, but cheating is synnonomous with video games. I must admit though, that the cheating has not been quite as bad as it was a year ago.

I got standby-ed yesterday in CTF Team Training. WTF? Why would people cheat on team training lol. We would be guarding our flag, then we would all lag out and when we came back in, they would have a capture. Anyways, I didn't know who to blame so I just reported their whole party. Hopefully at least one of them gets the banhammer.
