Note: This is my returning post on the Bungie forum after my "ban" has expired.
When it comes to gittin gud I say, “Nah.”
I’m badder than Michael Jackson & that’s fine by me. I'm first at being the worst. I’m awful with a capital A. I’m terrific at being terrible with no shame in my game. Muh skills don’t pay bills. It’s almost criminal how atrocious I am when you get down to it. I’m so dreadful that it’s got the Witness on the run & hiding in another dimension. Why would I want to be gud when it’s so much fun to be bad?
I read the forum for outside information regarding Bungie & lore; not for bragging rights over other players. I don’t single out people & treat them like they’re inferior because I don’t have a false sense of superiority nor am I a bully. I don’t worry about muh K/D either because it’s meaningless (if we’re being honest). I have no interest in world first competitions or special end game emblems. I care even less about how many flawless solos I have because these things do not equate at a comparative level to real world/life accomplishments. I don’t need someone to tell me to go outside & touch grass because I like nature & being outdoors.
I don’t complain about Destiny being too easy because I have no problems creating challenges for myself. I don’t expect Bungie to reinvent the wheel (or bend over backwards to appease me) because I’m not lazy nor do I behave like a spoiled, petulant child.
I don’t use meta builds because I enjoy certain weapons even if they’ve been nerfed into obscurity thanks to pvp whiners. I don’t use programming exploits because it’s cheap & cheating. I don’t watch streamers because I would rather play the game myself & could not care less about them or their garbage opinions.
I don’t think I deserve special rewards for doing more difficult activities with a group as opposed to solo, and vice versa. I don’t complain about the loot system either because I play this game for more reasons than that.
Things that most of you find boring & tedious I do not. I run lost sectors on the lowest setting because I like to relax & mentally unwind while doing my bounties. I visit old locations like Nessus to talk with Failsafe & do public events just because. I enjoy going to the farm to do nothing more than hang out by myself because I love the scenery.
I don’t ruin strikes for other players because I do my best to be mindful of my teammates. I don’t rush ahead of my team & try to get as many kills as possible before anyone else can fire a shot. I don’t leave people behind because they’re going too slow. I’ll turn around & go out of my way to resurrect a teammate (if I’m able); rather than make them wait 30 seconds because I couldn’t be bothered to help them. I try to have fun during pugs & not make them a sh*tty experience for other players; even if they’re a gilded Star Baker blueberry. I think griefing (of all types) is a prepubescent manbaby activity for miserable trolls that are angry at life & it shows with that type of behavior.
I don’t hate on something, or someone, because it’s vogue. I don’t dogpile on people because I don’t like mob mentality. I don’t harass other players or leave them nasty DMs. I don’t go out of my way looking for fights & from now on I’m blocking anyone that brings one my way because I'm not putting up with that sh*t.
I buy stuff from Eververse if I see something I like & still play on my PS4. I disagree with Bungie about certain things; however I’m not going to complain & insult them nonstop when I’m the one choosing to play a video game they’re producing. Just because I pay money for something does not mean that it gives me an automatic license to dehumanize the people that are providing me a service & the same goes for the rest of you. That does not excuse Bungie or their bullsh*t. It's called basic decency & not enough people have that these days, especially online.
I take things at my own pace & try to find enjoyment where I can because that’s what matters to me. My priorities are different than yours & I’m okay with that.
So cheers to all you bad players out there that could use some words of encouragement from one of your own. Don’t let crappy people or their rude behavior get you down because of how you play (they aren’t worth it). Life is difficult & challenging enough as it is. Us baddies gotta watch out for each other when we’re dealing with snobby gud guys.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to resume exterminating red bar Scorn loitering in the Dreaming City; because Queen Mara needs a bad boy knight like me to get his hands dirty & take care of tedious tasks while she observes the rest of you misusing her powers.
Gud day.
