[quote]admit their obvious mistakes[/quote]
Let me be the first to say that I've been begging for my VoC back, so I understand the want for elemental primaries.
The above quote is something to watch out for, however. Your word choice makes you seem like you are trying to be professional, but the obvious layer of typical childish sarcasm beneath your attempt at polished penmanship takes away from your post IMO.
You go from stating your opinion to outright taunting and implying there has been an actual mistake (to be clear, this directly undermines the multiple times you claim to be stating an opinion). As I said before, I agree with you on the coolness of your idea and the overall usefulness of elemental primaries. VoC is literally the only gun I kept from Y1. Easily amazing, that solar burn is life.
You could tone it down a bit though, perhaps? If you want acknowledgement it is best to truly mean the professionalism you are attempting to convey.
[spoiler]I'm no stranger to badmouthing aspects of this game. Hell, go in my recent history and I'm sure you'll find many instances of it lol. I'm JUST saying that if you really want this then you'll act like a grown up.. and I don't mean like Seth Rogen.[/spoiler]

It's been a while since someone has tried to call me "childish". Interesting. But I'll ask you to think on the fact that passive-aggressive sarcasm does not equal acting like a child. It's simply a tool to impress upon the reader that the author does not think highly of the subjects' past decisions. If one were to also take a look at my storied thread history, one would see that sarcasm and cynicism are equally important parts of my nature, and are used to compliment my intellect. It also helps my argument that the "obvious mistakes" I referenced are widely held opinions in this community that the decisions to A) Leave Y1 gear behind as ineligible to move forward into Y2 and B) the decision to remove Elemental Damage from Primary weapons to 'increase weapons diversity' were horribly bad decisions that greatly harmed player trust in the development teams, and proved that Bungie has no issues with outright lying to their player-base. So while we do agree on the severity of the issues at hand, healthy doses of extreme sarcasm are very useful in this type of ongoing discussion. But the use of such tools does not make them "childish" by default.
