I found Urk's post.
There is also this one where he says that if they did activate Halo 3 flames everyone would be forced to use them forever.

Halo 3's flames weren't set up like Halo: Reach's, as part of the Armory. We would have to force them on and players wouldn't be able to switch them off. Ever.
I remember that Bungie EOD armor is still an option in the Player menu. If a player doesn't want to wear it, then they can simply choose another armor choice.

Yes, we don't want you to have flames in Halo 3 and we're lying to cover it up.

Last year was custom code. We deployed it, remained in control of the back end, and later turned it back off. I asked our guys to investigate doing something similar for this year (which they are still doing), but I can't guarantee it will come to fruition, even though I want it to.
Since we will lose access to title support for Halo 3 soon, we need to be careful and considerate with how we impact the people still playing it, and ensure that the new stewards aren't passed a smouldering server in need of immediate repairs.
Responsibility. It's a -blam!-.

This makes sense. If it is not something they can do without massive code change or breaking the game. Then I won't complain.
My thoughts were either 2 things:
1.
All players in Halo 3 have the option, of selecting the Bungie EOD armor in the Player settings menu in the game. Also this would force "Bungie" nameplates on all players.
2.
Only Bungie.net members can have this applied to them. So that other players won't be affected if that is what they are worried about.
