If you lag switch,
you're getting reported for cheating and connection. Every one of my friends report, and i encourage all to do the same. Cheaters with enough negative reports get banned from matchmaking. Bungie still needs to do something on their end to fix this problem further, though. I could handle all the thorns if they weren't lagging

Probably 99% of the time it's a bad connection. You are reporting people their connection not mixing well with to yours. The lag switch is not as common as people think, it's essentially the big urban legend of Destiny that people use as a n excuse cause they lost. I'm sure lag switching happens now and then, but this forum would have it seem that Destiny actually has a great connection it's just all lag switchers.
