There, Shishka and I cleaned the thread up with some permanent and some temporary bans.

That should help keep the thread on track.


Thanks.

Wow, I guess I am. This is unbelievable.

Mo it's not.
So it's now my fault that Bungie has a glitchy game. I guess I'm guilty. This is preposterous. You need to rethink your cheating philosphy Bungie...you made the game...the gamers just know what can be done with it.
Is that reallly your state of mind? If someone can't catch you, you will continue doing it? I'd hate to see you when you grow up..
Is it also cheating to crouch jump up to sword platform on Midship? I crouch jump all the time to hard to reach spaces...is this cheating? Crouch jumping is glitchy...every player that starts the game has to learn how to get to hard to reach places...OH NO! I guess when I manage to crouch jump to the top of Pink on Midship I'm cheating. Is slide jumping a glitch? Is edge jumping cheating? Is coming up base lift and dropping the ball and batting it up Pink ramp on Midship cheating? That's glitchy too. Damn near everything is glitchy.
None of those thigns are cheating, because they are intended purposes, and not against both Xbox LIVE's ToS and Bunei's Rules.
Super jumping is one thing. Button combos are quite another. Rethink your stance Tom, it's your game build.
They will not rethink anything for cheaters. Alll cheating can be compared, they can also be compared to real life instances. Let me demonstrate.

Steroids = Mods

Running offsides with the ball, but not giving it to the ref = Standby

Scoring all your goals in soccer, with your hands = BXRing



Do you have any idea what the -blam!- you are talking about? The only thing that has any relationship is the steriods to mods arguement. Running offsides with the ball, but not giving it to the ref = Standby. What the hell is that? First of all, being offsides causes the game to stop play for EVERYONE, not just the man offsides. How is that like standby? Does everyone start walking into walls when a player is offsides? Then do they all just show up in random places? Scoring all your goals in soccer, with your hands = BXRing Another great demonstration of your above average intelligence and amazing comprehension of Halo 2 and soccer.

Yet another wacky Zanzibar thread comes to a close (yes, I said "Zanzibar". It's definitely in the old spirit).


LOL! True, and what a wild ride it was. :)

And yet it will continue to grow and grow despite an answer being given....


Also I wouldn't let Underpants Gnomes play the game....they're spawn camping sons of bltches.

That doesn't make any sense.

Anyway, you want to talk about cheating? I use a Keyboard and Mouse to play Halo2 (sometimes). That usually gets people riled up.

I won't leave you cheating feedback. No worries.

Lucky for me, it doesn't help much. No one notices. I'm working on adjusting to the 360 controller. It's a long road.

Achronos, I am just curious as to who would actually lead cheating feedback for BXR. As I can see it, people who know how to BXR would NOT leave cheating feedback. They would not not use it, just because you said it was cheating. Instant kill anyone? Everyones for it.

The only people that would actually leave feedback would be the ones who didn't know how to use it. Those people are sour that they can't learn something that everyone else seems to know. In my opinion, they deserve to get BXRed because they won't take the time out of their SWAT filled days to LEARN this glitch that EVERYONE seems to be able to do.

Truth be told, there is nothing bungie can do to stop button combos simply because they have no way of detecting it without the feedback system, and we already know how messed up the feedback system is, maybe bungie should worry about all the modders and standby'rs we still have in the game, then go from there

No one should ever be afraid of looking stupid, so long as they are making a rational effort to expand their understanding.

Actually I can both BXR and BXB, and I don't use them for the fact that it is cheating. Well, I guess I can't say that I CAN because I don't practice it anymore. I found that games both LAN and XBL were more fun when played w/o that glitch exploit. And yes, I leave cheating feedback for people who use it in MM.

Wow... that opinion isn't full of disrespect and disgust for the honest players out there or anything. FUN, we play for FUN, and SWAT is just that. You are right, the glitch is easily learned, and anyone is able to do it. You shouldn't disrespect us for choosing to play w/o cheating.

LMAO

Comparing scoring goals in soccer with your hands and BXRing is easily the worst comparison I have ever read.

A better comparison would be something along the lines of matching a wide reciever up against a linebacker in football.
