So I've brought this up before and I'll do it now because of the voting that happened today, Bungie should put out a pride shader to celebrate this historic day in history!
Edit: Mr Magpie suggested a cloak/bond/ mark. I think that's an even better idea!
Edit: Thanks for all the positive response guys! Sorry to all the negative people posting, I don't have enough to time to school all of you with some truth :(
Edit: thank you to everyone being respectful! To everyone who agrees thanks for saying so.

Update: Bungie tweeted out #lovewins so they've taken a stance, the right one. Bungie is on the right side of history, will you guardians?

48 RepliesEdited by Cappy: 6/27/2015 9:47:01 AMFirst off, congratulations on the new change. I'm happy for all positively affected. However, as many others have said, I'd be against a "Pride" shader due to my belief that it should not be emphasized moreso than other social groups. If we are to treat homosexuality as an equality trait, then homosexuals must be treated the same as others. If a "Pride" shader was introduced, then an imbalance and further controversy would follow. Why don't different races get a shader? Why don't feminists get their own shader? Why don't heterosexuals get their own shader?

Please im dying to know what could you possibly school us on the topic of homosexuality and in doing so make me feel like you shed any type of light on this topic.

2 RepliesI'd argue many of the shaders already celebrate gay pride.

3 RepliesA rainbow shader in itself is not a bad idea, but to introduce it for the sake of taking a social/political stance will most definitely cause upset. I see video games as fun places where everyone can come together, regardless of their orientation, race, or religion, and get away from these real-life issues for at least a little while.

2 RepliesPeople use fantasy to escape real life. I would rather not worry if the warlock dude running behind me in crucible is staring at my digital butt hole while rocking a gay pride bond. Keep it out of the game. What you do in your personal life is your business. Hence the term "PERSONAL".

I want it cause rainbows are cool.

9 RepliesOk. You are gay.. So what? Can I have a shader? I'm straight why don't I get one?
-
5 RepliesWhat "voting" are you even talking about? There was no voting. It was a ruling by the Supreme Court, not a vote. In fact, when the American people vote on gay marriage rights within their own states, it is usually a failed measure.

A shader for hômosexual people?

Edited by Knight Velstadt: 6/28/2015 1:49:10 PMFor What Purpose Why do homosexuals suddenly need to be represented in Destiny? Is there a purpose other than to feel special? I thought that all they wanted was to be equal, but by giving special treatment you aren't equal anymore, you're favored. In that case I want a shader or emblem or mark that specifically states that I am 100% straight. It will also express my political views and my stance on the education system.

Edited by AgentSmithThe1: 6/28/2015 5:22:36 AMSure, just give me a Jesus shader, 'murica shader, or a shader that makes my guardian clear

You're the reason gays get all the hate in the world you're not special because you're gay. But on a side note. [spoiler]miss me with that gay shit[/spoiler] I was gonna say a gay joke butt -blam!- it.

3 RepliesIt's not historic. It's just another day in politics. You want a shader for it, go buy some crayons. And before anybody says anything, I don't care who you marry. But, this issue is no more important than others. My son's autistic, can we have a shader? How about cancer, heart disease, legalized marijuana, subtle changes in the transportation code allowing single vehicles in the car pool lane, two for one specials, etc. I'm glad you're happy. But you are NOT special.
