No, it was just a terrible analogy and you just like to complain about things. And nobody gets handed anything if everyone has the same chance of something getting handed to them. You can't divide up the player pool on the concept of this side "earned their gear" and this side "had their gear handed to them" if everyone has the same chance of getting things for doing the same activity. And I'm not doing this for my "ego" (super ego is the correct term), I'm doing this so you might have a credible argument in your future complaints.
