It was not mean. The concept of earning your own loot has been the basis of Destiny for a long time. Trading weapons and gear is just as bad as pay to win.

Anyway,I can't hear you over my awesomeness. Try my voice mail. "And that's why I'm the boss. Now if you'll excuse me,I've got business to attend to. *flicks cigarette at you* Piss off."
-
Wow you turned a conversation into a cry baby session. Do you want me to change your diaper? Didn't you update your post about haters? You must have a mirror somewhere.
-
Thanks for taking everything so maturely. Now allow me to report you and hide your posts.
-
So far you are the only one to tell me to "piss off". You do read your own replies before you send them. I have not been disrespectful like you have. Please contact the Ninjas as they read all the posts and evaluate the contents and character. So far mine is intact.

Actually,I never said anything like that. You were listening to a voice recording from The Penguin.

PTW is bad. Trading isn't. At least not in all games. You can't just say trading is bad in every single game out there.
-
How can you separate PTW and trading? Both provide a player with an unfair advantage over the vast majority. In a purely PVE only game, it would provide a great advantage to team play. But as soon as you take away a person's enjoyment of the game because you gained better weapons and gear through a friend. You can put that franchise at risk from player's leaving due to frustration and a lack of interest.

Dude,everyone else would also have the ability to trade. Wherever you look,everybody always and always has a friend who has better gear who could give it away to their friends. Stop your complaining.

[quote]Dude,everyone else would also have the ability to trade. Wherever you look,everybody always and always has a friend who has better gear who could give it away to their friends. Stop your complaining.[/quote] Not sure if your a guy who assumes everyone plays with friends or just a guy who doesn't know better. Believe it or not there ARE people that play a game and have no friends also playing it. There are even people who don't have friends on their accounts because they don't know who the people are in real life. This is the same concept of people who don't live on Facebook/MySpace/twitter/insertsocialnetworksitehere so while some people have people to give then weapons *which isn't really trading...* there exists a definite subgroup that does NOT. Also people streaming games with their follower fan base would get a lot of gear given to them in exchange for just being "that guy who gave twitchstreamer123 his exotic weapon"
-
Only reason a person would not have friends,is if they just got their console or like being lone wolves. Those are the only reasons.

Edited by Andrenden: 8/25/2014 7:43:43 PMAgain you are assuming, not everyone adds anything that moves to their friends list and would only play with real life friends, and once again not all friends play games either, as an example I was friends with the typical athletic types *jocks* but I was the only one among them who played any sort of games, it turns out they enjoyed going outside! Who knew! But seriously you can't just cut and dry say that everyone has someone to give them stuff, just because you might doesn't mean they do and the fact you do and they don't is what creates a unfair advantage, you could be like the example of the twitch streamer that gets exotics given to them by their followers. No trades *though your never really proposed trade so much as "let's have the ability to outright give items to people"* is the most fair about it. Once again because those with or without friends don't matter because its come down to the individual.

Dude,if you add only RL friends,you're wasting your FL space and not meeting anybody new. What's the point?
-
Just because there is space doesn't mean you have to use it... That's like saying I have to spend my whole paycheck just because I have it. But either way no trading is the most fair way to handle things for reasons I've already stated.

I see the point in that.... When playing a PvP, it can be really frustrating to fight people with unfair advantages. But I do mainly rely on my playing to get me where I go in games. The only fix there would be outlaw traded inventory during PvP; but that's a little much. So no trading is ok with me. Trading doesn't make a game here people!
