Why, with each update to xBox Live, do things get thrown into bedlam? Ex: If I bump into someone while in a warthog and damage their ghost, and them, and they die a short while later I get booted. Why can't things ever be balanced; update for grenades because they don't offer realistic damage- solution- one grenade kills everyone on your team. Getting booted 5 minutes after power-sliding into a teammate, not killing them, is a real killjoy. The recent changes and the inability to balance gameplay lead me to wonder if I should cancel my subscription.

Also, since BTB has become unranked it has become a JOKE. Lag, cheaters, people who betray, people who just blare music to be asses... it seemed as though things were going so well until the Halo 3 Beta was released. I'm severely disappointed that there still hasn't been a plausible solution to blue-screen and the terrible host advantage that plague Halo 2. I understand you're working on Halo 3, but I feel as though Halo 2 is being neglected. On that note I anticipate finishing the storyline, but I'm hesitant about the online aspects of the game.

In closing, I'm sure this post will earn a deletion, or my forum tag will get banned... or this thread will be bloated with grammatical abortions of which most dissenting threads receive. Thanks for your team.

It kinda does seem like it is being neglected. All of these problems have been going on for as long as I can remember, but now they seem more widespread. Why I don't know, but if I had to make a guess I would say that people don't care anymore because in about a month the will be playing a new game. I wouldn't cancel you live account yet, give H3 a chance, then if you don't like it, cancel.

I played the Beta and was somewhat excited about the game, and I will most certainly cancel my account if I am let down by what the game offers. Too long have I been suckling from the teat of Bungie complacent to be irritated.
