Elitism a problem in destiny...

Recently i was called an elitist when doing a raid with an lfg team. When forming the team we had 5 318+ guardians and one of them suggested his lowly 309 friend to fill the last spot. Myself and another teammate showed our displeasure in having a low light character join us as we know for a fact that people who are 318+ are skilled and people below 310 are not. Against our better judgement we let this player in. After 5 attempts on warpriest with the same 309 dying we finally passed it any moved on to golgoroth. There this player died alot. And then when i asked why are you dying all the time to him and that maybe you should raise your level to 315+ before doing a hard raid he snapped back at me you are an elitist. I dont know why he called me an elitist. Maybe it was because i was staying alive and he was dying alot. Then he said that those requirements arent needed to beat hard mode and that is elitism because i have a higher light than him. I am not an elitist but i do believe that one player is better than another based entirely on his gear. Its not my fault that he isnt skilled enoughto get to 315+.

  • Light lvl to an extent shows skill and experience. I'm not sure why people get INSANELY offended when people mention that. Typically someone with high a light lvl has ran the raid multiple times, understands the mechanics, and typically doesn't suck ass. Unless they got extremely lucky and received the drops they needed with minimal run throughs. I will take a 315+ over anyone that's 300-310 any day. Unless I actually on now that person, they're probably not joining. Now before everyone starts throwing shit at me, I've had a fair share of people that were 310+ that were horrible. The past two Golg challenges I've done so far this week have collectively lasted around 3 to 4 hours. Just on that one CP. The challenge isn't even hard, some people are just horrible. Regardless of their lvl. But when it comes down to it, a higher light lvl is more welcome IMO. Unless I'm going through, helping friends or randoms after finishing my stuff, I will choose the highest lvls. People can get offended all they want and scream out elitism, but some people do not want to spend hours on one activity.
