Frankie,
Your attention to these pertinent questions would be greatly appreciated.
One, me and a lot of my friends on Halo 2 have all agreed that we want the Banshee back on Assault games for Headlong. There's no legitmate reason to leave it out now that Sudden Death is removed, and the DEFENDING team always starts with the Banshee. It was always a very fun and challenging aspect of that game type to take down the Banshee and prevent them from getting rockets, or be the person attempting to get rockets without getting killed.
Second, the Turret glitch still hasn't been fixed. I've still been in matchmaking and been able to use a destroyed one (by accident) and have seen others do the same.
Thirdly, SUPER JUMPING. By Bungie's definition, this is cheating, although you say it's not. You can't seriously tell me that Bungie can't consider this a bannable offense. It should be. Super Jumping is different for every map and mostly difficult for players to pull off, so not everyone can do it, like everyone could grab a flag through the ceiling in Coagulation. People use Super Jumping to gain unfair advantages all the time in matchmaking, and because of your ignorance, people say it's not cheating. If someone Super Jumps with both Sniper Rifles on to the top of the map in Burial Mounds (have personally witnessed this) and starts picking people off and we can't shoot him down, is that fair? No. Exploiting the geometry of the map is cheating, as Bungie has said. And that's exactly what this is. And since you can't fix it, per se, the only current solution is to make it a bannable offense. Any exploits left in the game (like Sword Flying, remember?) will only be used more by cheaters to spoil everyone's fun. I even talked to some of the Bungie guys at E3, and they agreed that I should report people who do this.
Please shed some light on these issues.
