"Bungie controls everything. You have no rights. Play nice."
For the last time its TURRETS not TORRENTS. A TORRENT is either a peer to peer file sharing protocol or a violently fast stream of water. A TURRET is a self-contained weapons platform housing guns and capable of rotation. And TURRENT isn't even a word.
The banhammer is the name of the automated program they use to detect cheating. Its not an actual guy wielding a hammer. While in many machinimas the banhammer is portrayed as a Bungie employee with a gravity hammer, that's just a clever visual metaphor.
The real banhammer is a program, and that program also has a button that certain individuals (namely Shishka) can press to manually ban people.
The banhammer is real, what I want to know is if the Halo 3 banhammer updates apply to Halo 2 as well, but no one has gotten back to me with a concrete answer. Perhaps I should try the optimatch forum?
