Dear "Earners", I would like to start this off by saying that technically everyone in the game has "earned" stuff. Here are some points that we all need to take into consideration: 1. RNG is what "earned" you a weapon or piece of armor. Yes you did the strike or raid to get it but anyone can do these except maybe the skill required for hard raid and nightfall strikes. 2. People are not all hardcore gamers. Some of us can afford to have RNG do all the work in getting good items while others only play a few hours a week and need Xur. 3. We all have bought stuff from Xur, stop acting like you're story is rags to riches without any help. 4. Just because someone now had the same gun or armor as you doesn't mean it isn't special. 5. Stop trying to have an "elite group" (this is for you too level 30s). There is no such thing. There are people who are good and people who are bad at any game, what gear you have, at least in this game, doesn't decide that. Tl;dr People need to stop putting themselves on a pedestal and realize this is a game and that everyone should just have fun :) Edit: gear*
