[quote]Who the hell cares if someone AFKs and gets random loot? It doesn't affect you in the slightest. Goddamn can't people just play the game[/quote]

Because the difficulty goes up based on how many players there are? So them being there makes it harder for no reason, a waste of my time and efforts.

Its like bo2 zombies I hate the morons who start searching and then never ready up or who just don't move. Every time he dies I lose points. Why start searching if you know you will be gone it gets annoying after awhile. Same concept here now I have to either drag dead weight through the strike or waste time finding a team who will at least help in some way. One more thing for anyone afking for a strike without dying ill run you over with a sparrow till you die for trying to leech a bounty off me. rant maybe but can you blame me

Does it affect me? No but im not about to allow someone else get rewarded for something I did, plain and simple, I don't care that you don't give a shit, but just because you don't doesn't mean that I have to agree with you

[quote]At some point, people's -blam!-ed up, selfish ideas about what constitutes "fun" can't all be accommodated. As an extreme example, if someone said "hey bungie it's only fun for me if I play with white people, could you use the kinect to detect if the player is white and if not make sure I don't get on their team in crucible?" obvously Bungie would say "um, no, sorry that's not fun for you, but we're going to do something that LOTS of people want". So infuriating that people can't see past their own myopic point of view.[/quote] I'm glad you said something like that so I can rebuttal with this. Selfish ideas of fun also constitute people who believe they should be entitled to ride others to glory while not even having to lift up a single finger. Also it includes people who play crucible who are complete and utter trash that feel they have the right to do what they want since they payed for the game. Your extreme example is just that extreme. Your talking about racism which cannot be related to anything else. I see the point of view of others. Doesn't mean there view is right or justified. You are a contradiction yourself as you can't see the pov of people who think they shouldn't have to carry others. All you are is someone on the other side of the argument. The only thing is the people on your side have no argument as to why I should have to carry someone through anything. If you can't start throwing out reasons as to why it's my duty to carry others then we can get into a real debate

I don't like encouraging freeloading behaviour, it's really that simple. Some people have morals and ethics and it carries over to even insignificant hobbies like videogames.
