1. Melee is a lot of the time the tool of destruction for players. Is this a FPS or a boxing game?
Tons of people back in Halo 2 AND 3 relied on melee. In Halo 2 it was BXR in Halo 3 it was AR and melee death charges. Moreover, I am not going to say Reach is bad just because some people who play it are bad at it.

2. You have to pay $15 for maps that HAVE ALREADY EXISTED FOR YEARS. No new design, just a fresh skin and imported into the new game.
The maps WERE redone. They were tweaked to be more modern and still have the ability to be played as classic maps. Furthermore, you don't have to buy these. How is a game bad for offering nostalgic DLC?

3. Why are current developers adding so many reduced and no-bloom playlists if it was just the vocal minority who wanted the change?
Variety. It's the spice of life. Note they haven't changed it in the most populated lists yet.

4. You're banned from playing if you quit too much. For a game with a pitiful population are bans that make want users want to play something else what's really needed? How about a huge CR penalty or armor loss?
People who are quitting aren't playing anyway and are ruining matches for other players. I don't care if they switch games. They weren't staying in the match they were in with me anyway.

5. You can kill yourself as many times as you want without getting removed. Apparently this line of code was too much for Bungie:
If suicide count = 5 then boot player.
Few people do that and if they weren't to do that, they could shoot your shields down, hold the objective, block your shots, etc. You really can't stop griefers. They always find a way.

6. You get the same amount of CR if you go negative 20 or positive 20. This one really gets me... People are able to level up by being AFK. Special Olympics ring a bell to anyone?
Assuming you don't have all commendations maxed, you get more credits for most of your kills. You also get more for winning. Those who AFK in Matchmaking outside of Firefight are generally banned and Halo rank means little anyway since it's simply a time played tracker so who cares?

7. At the touch of a button you can fly or become invincible, simply for being a mouth breather. No need to earn a tactical advantage... Just give it to them. No need to worry about map design and positioning because people can -blam!- fly.
So play MLG, Classic, Team Snipers, SWAT, Squad Battle, etc. The game offers plenty of lists if you don't like how it is currently set up.

8. The current population is representative of the classic halo formula being ruined. What was once fun and addicting is now slow and random.
The current population is representative of the fact that most people like easy games. That's why CoD is on top right now. It's easy to play, it rewards you for everything you do, it's easy to get long killstreaks, and you can quit out of any and all matches until you get placed with easy kills.
If population represents what's good in a game, then lag, terrible spawns, unbalanced guns, killstreaks, no ranking system, perks, and 1 second kill times are clearly what people want.

Done and done.
