I did today.. ugh. The two that I was playing had good lag and they were really good, then I adjusted to the lag, and began to win. Then I started noticing that when I would fire at them, the game would appear to "freeze" and then when it would come back, I would be dead, or near dead.

I really had never been more frusterated in my life, even more than when facing cheaters in H2. I mean, they already had host, and were good, do they need to go so low as to cheat in the game that is supposed to be about skill?

There is no standbye or the like of it in halo 1. What most likely happened is once the ppl you are playin are not in your screen data went out smoothly and once they were in your screen data being uploaded to you had a rough time getting to you.

Halo 1 does not have the networking code as Halo 2. So manipulating the network is nearly impossible as it will hard disconnect you immediatley

Sadly, some people find it irreistable to ruin others' gaming time. Sadly, there is no shock button to electrocute them if they do.

That would be great for Halo 2! Off topic I know but they should have a IP thingy that finds the IP of the person who's cheating and send a shock to his controller or have his XBOX self destruct!

I've also encountered cheaters several times. When I started to kill them and get adjusted to the lag, everytime I was about to kill them the game would lag like crazy! It's so stupid that people actually enjoy cheating in Halo 1.... the reason they cheat is because they suck and I will own them with the pistol.
