Every player who waited for xur "earned" it. Patience is a hard virtue and method of acquiring something. How was the last time you had to wait in traffic? Waited in line. Waited for the release of a new game. Waiting is tortuous and hard. So hard, you couldn't even do it yourself. You couldn't wait. You grinded for it or used 3oC for it. But either way, you weren't strong enough to wait. To be patient is much harder than grinding. At least grinding you're doing something, you [i]feel[/i] like you're making an attempt to obtain your goal. Just sitting and waiting is hard to force yourself to do. To be patient, not knowing if you'll have to wait months or a year. So, please. Every player who waits for xur most definitely "earned" it.
