wow, totally misjudged this article by the title. Excellent post OP, couldn't agree more. I take new raiders through as many times as i can per week on XBOX ONE http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/73856953/0/0. I always explain an area before it comes up, ask for feedback from new players, questions, concerns, thoughts etc. Yes, it's helpful if you and your friends help pull lower level players along with you. But, it's actually beneficial to teach those new raiders why and what they're doing, not just "follow [blank] and don't die or we'll kick you." I'm seeing and hearing way too much of that. And please people, understand that we have lives too. Just because we love to lend a hand and help others, doesn't mean we don't leave the house or have lives. I'm appalled with the amount of hate mail i get from party invites or game invites i dont accept... while im already in a party and doing a raid 0.o please exercise common sense. In the raid, out of the raid, and out of destiny. Respect. Edit: what system are you on OP? id love to raid sometime with another like mind ^.^
