Ive been noticing an increase in the amount of disrespect from bungie employees on community forums.
Just look at todays weekly update and the extremely snarky and sarcastic comments from Deej such as "omg he only has 1600 weapon parts left we need to do something" and "we hold the right to do anything with the game economy we want."
Does anyone else think snarky comments like this are very unprofessional? Like Bungie you act like your some sort of hero for fixing a problem that YOU created.
Here is a comment from another post that explains my thoughts perfectly, all credit goes to user Wahrnye
"Just another joke of a weekly update that makes it easier to not look back on this game going forward.
Announcing the weapon parts change - Fine, but that's a fix to a problem THEY created. And when addressing the fact that THEY created this problem, DeeJ wraps it up in unnecessary snark about being curators of THEIR living world. Hubris to the highest degree; it's almost as if they're saying how dare we question their choices?
Let me say this next part slowly so the apologists can understand: [i][u]Etheric Light and Wormspore uses should have been in the game since September's launch, not something coming soon by December.[/u][/i] They knew Etheric Light was a thing that many people had plenty of and they also introduced Wormspore (apparently) without any regard for what to do with it outside a few weapon upgrades. IIt's going to take them almost 3 months to finally make these things meaningful? These are all issues they created by poor planning or bad oversight, not something they should be praised for fixing AFTER the fact.
The rest of the entire update was about the same tired PVP bullshit as almost every other weekly update. No news on new content, no commenting on the terrible loot system - especially in regards to raid drops (I love doing the raid and getting a fourth duplicate item at 302 light... ) - or the fact that Nightfalls, Strikes, and Court of Oryx ceases being rewarding once you reach 300 light or more.
I've seen this playbook before. Between this and Activision spouting off their easily manipulated "registered user" numbers (aka 'investor math'), they've pretty much already decided they're going to pander to the base players who believe Bungie can never, ever, do any wrong. Nothing will change going forward. Bungie and Activision are living in their own echo chamber - as evidenced by the fact that they spend more time conversing with the "community" on Bungie-friendly outlets like Reddit and Twitter..."
EDIT:
A lot of you seem to think im just looking for something to be offended by cuz im a "no balls toxic loser"
Its more im just fed up with the bullshit direction this game is taking like timegating exotics that i already payed for to extend gameplay time and patching things like weapon parts for no -blam!-ing reason
Perhaps the most irritating thing is the bungie fanboys and dickriders who will stop at nothing to defend everything the devs do to this game and every word that comes out of that douchebag known as Deej's mouth.
Go ahead meet me with ninja justice for stating the obvious about your shit company and bottomfeeder fanboys
EDIT2
It seems the common defense for Deejs tone is "oh bungie has to go through so much shit and complaining on the forums, people are meanies"
You people cant seriously believe its ok for a company to retaliate in this fashion. Oh no a game developer has to see negative feedback about the game they made wahh wahh prayers for bungie" All of you are saying "can the entitled/offended generation go away", if you ask me the people defending bungie with this mindset are the "offended generation."
Some of you say, "The customer is always right bullshit has to stop." Anyone who utters this is a complete moron and has either no concept of business ethics or is 15 years old and thinks they are being righteous and hip.
Go ahead, start a business and whenever a customer has a problem with you or the product, tell them to -blam!- OFF. Yea thats a good business model, you will surely succeed.

I would agree to some point. While I don't have a huge surplus of weapon parts like some people who played a lot of year 1 but I do alright in getting them, or at least I did. I started back up after quitting destiny a few month into the release but then the taken King was coming out and a friend said he wanted to play it with me so I dived back in. I quickly reached 295 light in the first week with my lock raising from lvl 30 or so (I didn't pre order so no bonus xp class item). Anyways I found myself doing a lot of content while waiting for my friend, completing the nightfall, starting a hunter from scratch and raising it to 40, bringing my lvl 8 Tibetan to 40. But there's an issue with a lot of things since the taken King, the reason I left year one was my own staying power and my friends didn't play as much as me so I got bored, but know there's a bunch of little problems which add up. I never was much of crucible player except for when my friends play but every time I enter I realize how unbalanced everything is guns, supers (both nerfed and op), and it doesn't feel at all like an even playing field. I don't have many year one items especially since I trashed them for parts but I see a lot of people using year ones, not because they don't want to use year 2 weapons but there's only a select few that actually are worth a damn and finding them is completely up to rng plus some of those weapons which are "lasers" are complete shit without one perk that actually makes it viable (like my only hawksaw I've gotten which sucks). Then you have classes where some supers make you feel fragile and others make you damn near invulnerable, and people saying "get Gud" to a lot people facing the hammer for instance need to calm down on the trolling, because unless you have a certain load out there is a slim chance of killing one with out team shooting and even then a few of you are going to die anyways. I've done the majority of pve content I'm 310 light when I wear my non pvp gear and my titan is 309 but I feel disenfranchised to play because I don't know what else to do until a new update, because everyone wants to do the no knight strat in hard mode which I think is is cheap and unreliable. I'm just at a standstill for now.
