Lol.. yeah I know what you mean.
I had reason to delete my main character. I know how I am. If I didn't delete my main character with all my great loot attached to it (IB, Fatebringer, Abyss Defiant, etc...) I know I would eventually return and play the game.
I'm not ashamed to admit that I have been missing playing Destiny since deleting. I own that.
But eventually... I would return to feeling the way I've been feeling the last month or two. The same feeling that I quoted from the post above. I don't want to waste time on a game because I'm obsessed with loot and leveling. I want to play a game because I enjoy it. Not because I'm fixated on planning out all my time trying to maximize my chances of getting loot via raids, NF, etc...
I don't ever want to be "that guy" again. And this game turns me in to that guy. So I knew deleting all my weapons, loot, armor, mats, etc... would detour me from picking up the sticks on this game again. I did it to ensure I was discouraged from ever coming back to Destiny and falling into the same funk.

Yeah, I used to clear all the bounties every day with each of my three alts. Now, the prospect of running patrols, killing x type of majors, or killing a random enemy halfway through a story mission just bums me out. I've got weapons that could use xp, but playing the same missions we've been playing since week 1 and doing the same bounties we've had since week 1.... It's not worth it for me.

I completely understand. Also, I used to wake up a couple hours before work on Tuesday and knock out the weekly and NF every reset morning. Then I'd go to work and plan via PSN meeting up with the raid team to raid that night. It almost became like a second job. I don't know about you, but when a game becomes like a second job and not fun... well... that is when it is probably time to step away.

Yeah, our clan founder, a clanmate, and I (an admin) would run the nightfalls back to back to back at refresh every Tuesday. We were the guys who pushed our clan to improve and run raids. We carried the crap out of our friends until they could carry others. It was fun, but it reached a point where I got tired of standing in hallways or hiding behind a rock or in a room, and shooting at mobs. Digital whack-a-mole.

+1 ^^ My other big pet peeve (and when I started to realize I had crossed over to the dark side) was when this happened: I am with my favorite people to play this game with running my favorite raid which is VoG on hard mode. I'd already completed it for the week so I didn't need anything loot-wise from the raid. I am in the templar fight thinking to myself, "I am wasting time here! I should be in CE normal/HM trying to get my last shards to get to 32!". I mean, I was not even enjoying playing the most fun part of this game with my favorite people. WTF?!?! That was my "moment of clarity".
