Oh the irony in your post. Okay, let's use logic. Your proposition is that those that purchase weapons from Xur didn't earn it; it is only earned if it was a reward from an event. All rewards from events = earned. Strange coins rewarded from events = earned. Strange coins rewarded from events used to purchase from Xur =/= earned? I think your argument stems from the need to feel like the drops you are given are actual accomplishments and not a product of random chance. As though your inventory is something to be prideful of. I hate to burst your bubble, but that exotic you got at the end of that raid is no more a pat on your back from the game than rolling a high number on a set of dice is a reflection on your skills at jerking your wrists.
