Some people want a trading system in Destiny. Sure, it would be nice to give your friend that second Legendary Pistol you have, but what would that do to the game? Diminish how special these items are.
If you find something incredible, like the "Strength of the Pack" Cloak, you'd want to have a story to go along with it. Instead of "uh, my friend gave it to me", you can say you took out the ENTIRE Citadel on Venus BY YOURSELF.
That's what Destiny is about. Not sharing rare loot you found with everyone, but making your own path, your own [b]Legend[/b]
I for one want to earn my loot, not breeze through the game and be given all the good stuff, then get bored and quit.
So let's get #earnyourloot trending on BNet. Let's follow Destiny's original purpose, to share war stories and marvel at each other's accomplishments.
Burn Brightly, Guardians.
EDIT: Well......we're trending. HECK YES!!!!!!

Only way I see for this system not being abused is for there to be a in game rating system, that rates the gear so that there is no common junk for exotic gear. Exotic for Exotic, Legendary for Legendary, Rare for Rare, etc. Let it be done in the tower in front of a trader NPC. Not saying I want this though, but if it's going to be implemented, it needs to be heavily regulated.
