Cheesing is very popular among the Destiny community. In fact, it's popular in every game but the term "cheesing" has gained it's infamy in our community. I've cheesed before, but I never supported it and it never ceases to amaze me that the people that do so don't get reprimanded or better yet, suspended or better yet for severe offences or frequent offenders: BANNED! My criticisms of cheesing began during the era of "disconnecting Crota." This was something I thought people should be banned for due to the prominence of literally pulling out your Ethernet cord to glitch a boss, but alas, the devs were too soft. Now before you tell me that I'm insane, let me enlighten you with some events in which this happened in another game. In WOW: Wrath of the Lich King, the world's first team to beat the raid glitched the boss by intentionally avoiding one of the mechanics. The team was subsequently stripped of their gear and raid completion. That kind of consequence for not playing legit I believe should be used in Destiny. Although many of these have been patched, let's say hypothetically that they weren't. Let's look at possible punishments. :
1. Mild case (Cheesing Templar, Atheon or bridge, heavy glitch): A warning followed by a week long ban for frequent offenders
2. Moderate case (Lag switching Crota): 3 week long ban followed by lifetime ban for frequent offenders.
3. Severe cases (Hunter glitch, Heavy glitch in PvP) are usually dealt with.
So I think I've made my point. I'm certainly open to listening to different opinions or suggestions. If you agree, let's bump it for Bungie! Good hunting Guardians!

Did someone cheese crota and it messed up your gameplay while you were doing the nightfall? because that would be the only way cheesing would be punishable. If someone else's gameplay doesn't affect YOUR gameplay than its stupid to even bring it up. Cheesing won't be punishable. Bungie devs have clearly stated multiple times that people cheesing something is how they fix the game and make it better. Feel free to look it up because I don't have the link and I'm not gonna look for it either jus to please you...I know I'm right. So therefore, cheesing things in game actually helps bungie rectify shortcomings in their game and gives them an opportunity to fix it. Cbeesing won't be punishable ever. Cheating on the other hand is, because that affects someone else's gameplay. Stop crying about how other people play the game THEY PURCHASED,not you, not me...THEM!!!
