Infinity Ward Swings Ban-Hammer on MW3 Cheaters
Infinity Ward creative strategist, Robert Bowling, released the news via Twitter. He said that the bans are a response to "Any attempt to cheat, hack, or glitch" the game. He also confirmed that updates to eliminate some of the glitches being exploited were in the works, and encouraged members of the community to identify offenders using the post-match report function. These reports are sent directly to Infinity Ward's security team who, Bowling said, "verify reports with in-game stats, in-game video recordings, and other data to verify you were cheating." The bans are then tailored accordingly. "Every ban [is] unique to the level of douchiness of the offense," Bowling said. "The greater the douche the greater the length. PermaDouche possible."

Windows_LiveG36cBossMan I don't glitch or boost/cheat but thats a little harsh ban them for finding a glitch?? they did them a favor by finding it just patch it and move on...
Exactly, that's what I'm saying
Well that's just stupid. Sure they found it, but the person who found it, instead of reporting it discretely to IW, released it and caused a bunch of people to start cheating. The person who found it and all who abused it deserve their bans.

If no one found the glitchs, there would be no need to patch anything...
Its 100% Infinity Ward's fault for not testing the game properly. People who found the glitches are exploiting the errors by IW

Saw some the other day. Even after finding them they still went back to the same place lol. And the Outpost glitch was annoying. Glad they're patched and the boosters, cheaters banned.

Yep.. Boosters. Flooding all FFA games today for some reason. Havn't seen any until today. Its annoying. And I don't really see why they boost. I win even if the boost. Its pointless. I record them boosting and put em in my vault for shts n' giggles.
