[quote]Refer a Friend is a slap in the face for Year 1 vets, hell even for TTK guardians! If you have played this for months or over a year, the chances of this being a doable quest are very low. Hey Bungie... How about THANK A VET? You could support at REAL cause like U.S. veterans. You could show APPRECIATION for your customers who already bought your game. Twice. You could do something fun and positive for your fanbase instead of EXPLOITING THEM. Crazy concept. EDIT: changed US to U.S. To alleviate confusion. EDIT: This is not a post trying to stir the pot and create controversy about military or political views. It is just a suggestion for Bungie to use their power/popularity for a noble cause instead of straight money grabs. People who want to hijack the thread just to spew anti military or anti American BS are missing the point. While it is entertaining to watch them dig their own little (a few huge) holes please leave that stuff at the door. Thanks for the positive posts.[/quote] It is amazing how many people don't appreciate people who serve like myself. Rather I signed up or not it's sad how many of you don't appreciate your freedoms and rights and realize a vet is the reason you have that. But go ahead and run your mouth on a forum disrespectful all of those that serve that's fine. Your welcome you have that right because of us. Your all a bunch of cowards none of you would say it to a vets face. Probably because you know we'd flatten you the minute you did. So hide behind your gamer tags and virtual writing any day you run across me on the street and run that mouth I'll teach you the meaning of respect cowards. I served rather us vet or other country vets deserve recognition. Bungie your bring us business campaign blows. According to what I'm reading here your ok with people disrespecting vets as well. You don't stop it all around bungie your failing to impress just about anybody with any moral or decency at all. Good on you bungie make your money screw the vets that made it possible for you to do so in your country. Disrespectful that's all it is. Don't respond as I have already left this conversation I don't care what you fakes have to say serve then you can tell me about how being a vets only matters if you were drafted. 911, enduring freedom, Iraqi freedom, and more I served didn't sign up for war but I served anyways. You what went to college your welcome. I defended this country from the Taliban I defended this country from terrorism. What'd you do learn to be arrogant and insult those that give you your freedoms. Today's society is crap you deserve to be beaten you sorry excuse for skin. To the original writer thank you for caring about the vets. To the negative comments bungie should ban every one of you for your disrespectful attitudes I earned the title vet what about you?

    This is how you think you're going to inspire people to appreciate that service? By scribbling this indecipherable rant on a game forum? I know plenty of veterans who served proudly, and quietly live their lives not asking for anything in return. It probably kills them inside to see their service and that of others disrespected by people who wouldn't have the first clue about actually serving their country, but they wouldn't say a word. I am very proud of them. I'm thankful for them. You, I'm not so sure.

Mt opinion is mine you can blow it out your ass. People shouldn't talk shit about vets it pisses me off. People want to talk shit should do it to our faces see how much courage they have. You want to judge me as if you could hold a torch to me. How would you know you met me? We old shipmates? No then why open your mouth saying anything asshats all of you.

I find serving my country as a honor and I truly believe people should respect vets regardless of country for the fact they get to live the way they do. Our society lacks morals, manors, and general respect and that is why people treat vets like they do. I don't demand respect but my opinion is everybody should respect them even if I wasn't one I'd give them respect for allowing me my freedoms and liberties. But the fact I am means I do it even more and receive respect from many vets more often then those that lack morals and values. Excuse me for wanting my society to actually have some respect and morals. Thought I was in the US where I'm entitled to my opinion. Sad you think I'd be somebody to disrespect with not being thankful for having an opinion.

  • Sounds like you think you're entitled to something more than free schooling and unlimited recognition. Oh wait not unlimited... I forgot you don't get the recognition you "deserve" from bungie or their forums... A real vet wouldn't complain about people not "paying attention" to them. All you sound like is a whiney bitchboy. And I would say that to anyone in person if they were acting like you are.

  • Oh -blam!- off then. Just because you served, does not mean you are automatically better than the rest of us. Hell, the veterans I know, would tell you to -blam!- off as well. Entitled bastard.

  • No veterans I know, act this entitled. Serving one's county is a selfless act yet you act as though you're entitled to more. No where in the enlistment contract did it say, "enlisted man will be eligible for bonus in game content for any video game developed and or published by companies based in the the United States of America." As to your statements about being drafted. We've had a volunteer army since the 1970's. What are you talking about?

  • Armed forces promote violence. Violence begets violence. War emerges Innocents die all because some dumbass decided he wanted to "be a vet" and kill anyone who didn't agree with his patriotic mentality. Thanks but no thanks; I do not support machinations of war.

  • Its almost like you are devaluing the efforts of every other profession that supports a military force. What about the farmers that grew the food? The teachers that educated you? The engineers that created your hardware? Every part of society supports another so don't go thinking that being a 'vet' gives you a special status. You chose it so be proud (or not) of what you achieved and stop acting like a whiny brat that probably makes most other vets cringe. There are so many worthy causes that one video game company cannot support them all.

  • Destabilising the middle east on behalf of the Zionist bankers is actually a disservice to your country.

  • You are talking about hurting people because they arent speaking or thinking the way you do and now you demand respect. If I see or know a vet i'll do anything for them. You are a very angry person with some unresolved issues. So, yes, get some help.

  • I don't think he was thinking of it that way... I think what he was trying to say is that he doesn't understand why he's kinda dissing everyone on a post that isn't offensive...

  • So you're saying that anyone who uses their freedom in a way tha t you don't agree with deserves to fall victim of violence by a trained professional. Thanks for that. It's not just "defending " what you like, it's even the freedom you choose not to like.
