Honestly, some of you need to learn the difference between full blown cheating, and minor game strategies/exploits.
For example:
bouncing the flag in colossus is NOT cheating, because anyone can do it and its really not that difficult, if you try it once or twice you will learn how.
Pull flags through the wall (or underneath on coagulation) is NOT cheating, ~read above for the reasons~
Dummy glitch = MAJOR CHEATING (this is actually EASILY tracable, and these cheaters are probably punished the most because all you have to do is look at the game viewer to see this happen.
Standby - The most annoying cheat of them all.... This seems hard to track, but its "cheating power" is overwhelming.
I admit sometimes its annoying when someone in the game has a bad connection and they end up killing me because they lag, but thats just part of the game. Often i tell them to get a better connection and to not think they are tough because they lagged throughout the game. Sometimes this can be misconstrued as cheating, but I believe in time someone will find a way to exploit normal lag to get an unfair advantage over someone... Theres nothing worse that stabbing someone 3 times with a sword only to get assassinated by them.
*speaking of swords*
The rocket/sword glitch is also not considered cheating *in my opinion at least, i don't know about Bungie's* its fairly easy to do, and most of the time if you use it in a real game its success isn't that impressive.
I would personally like to know how i can lunge at someone with the sword, hear the sound of it stabbing them, and then get killed by that person... Who wins, the person who lunges first or the person who lunges second? It seems i always miss with the sword, and sometimes it literally goes straight through the person, i blame it on my connection, but i have no true proof of why this actually happens.
