*loses a trials match* "Hey can we go to orbit, I need 10 minutes to light one"

To all the people who think stoners are idiots, and hate the people with "xxKushManxx" or something like that as their name, know this: [spoiler]Amateur stoners are idiots, and they think its super cool that they smoke. Amateur stoners that cant talk normally or think straight annoy experienced stoners, like myself. I smoke weed on a daily basis, but the thing is; you cant tell im even high most of the time. Know this as well; names with 420, kush, weed, smoke, or anything that advertises that you're a stoner annoys me too. A proper stoner will lead a sober person through a raid, a proper stoner will be worried about [u]your[/u] ability to focus, and lastly, a proper stoner can have straight A's in school. Ive seen it, not in my case though lol I was never one to do all my work in school. Oh and just know when you go outside and see people working hard at their job, they arent always sober. You just dont know, so stop acting like you do.[/spoiler]

As long as you can talk about something else other than being stoned, or how much weed you have. Someone who uses weed, no problem. But, some idiot who thinks that their pot use is the only thing in their existence worthy of conversation? Booted.

I'm a plumber. I work my ass off to provide for my kids. 40+ hrs a week. Away from home for 12 hours, so, I don't get to see my kids that much, besides the fact that I don't play Destiny nearly as much as most of you do. I pay rent, bills, etc just like almost every other average human being. I also just bought a truck, and that requires payments of $400 a month plus insurance. "Why is he saying all this?" is something you might be asking yourself, and, here's why: because you shouldn't judge someone based on their habits. I'm an avid weed smoker, I voted for amendment 64 in 2012 (legalize weed in Colorado), and I do smoke everyday. EVERYONE, and I mean everyone, has some sort of vice. Whether you drink alcohol, smoke weed/cigarettes, eat sweets, drink coffee, shoot meth, or whatever, you all have something that you rely on to keep your cool, or get drunk or high, or whatever. Even worshiping God could be considered a vice. Now, I am not religious at all (listen to metal, smoke weed, do other things that will banish me to Hell), but, there is one thing out of the bible I think we should all take with us wherever we go: "Judge not, lest ye be judged yourself." Why does it matter if someone is smoking weed? Are they physically causing you harm? Did they emotionally scar you in some way? No? Then leave them be! A raid/trials run is a little different, obviously. If there is someone too incompetent to be playing, then, -blam!- yeah, kick their ass to orbit. But, someone who is just sitting back, enjoying their game while smoking some weed deserves NO shit from any of you. Thank you for reading if anyone does. Edit: I never expected to get so many responses and likes! Holy shit! Thank you to everyone for voicing your opinion, whether or not you agree with me. I can see this issue is a very important one to many of you. In general, there is a lot of you just like me. You guys just keep being awesome. And, as for the ones who are assuming the worst and being judgmental: why do you feel the need? I can understand if you don't like something, then you should be able to say something. But, there's no need for personal attacks and judgmental statements. That's when shit gets out of hand.

I don't mind as long as they are sober enough to listen and pay attention.

Hell yeah. No room for drug addicts tho. Only people who smoke weed or drink. Maybe some lean lol

If your high then no not in my fire team

When I was younger, I smoked weed. I understand why people do it. I don't do it anymore, for various personal reasons, but I'm not judging people that do. I also understand that there is that sweet spot in how high you get that improves your focus, and can help your gaming skills. I also happen to know that that spot is hard to get to and maintain for something like trials or a raid. Too many times have I been told by someone that they are godly at raiding, shredding a guitar, or any other skill, only to have them promptly jump off a platform a dozen times in a row or commit a hate crime against my ears because they don't understand that weed, by its very nature, alters your perception. That is the very reason people use it. Too much, and suddenly you think you are playing Mario Kart instead of Destiny. And I don't trust the guy named xxx_bongkiller420_xxx talking about how high he is constantly, with a bong bubbling in the background, actually knows what game he is playing. Edit: Proof below. Edit: Cleaning up the forums one mute at a time.

Before/after a raid? Sure do whatever you want. During a raid? No, you're on my time and I don't want to stop every 5 minutes for a smoke break or hear that shit.

I'm not gonna have a damn stoner going "woahhhh, man we gotta like... Kill him dude." And I don't want to hear them laughing every 5 seconds with their "euhhuhuhuhuh" type laugh
