Thank you for reading it man, It was to point out that "earned" has both meanings and no one is wrong. The common trend is for someone to say " I earned mine and you just bought yours scrub!" ......Then the guy who bought it is thinking " Well you "earned it by what? Having 3 characters go in and get the first chest in Crotas raid or you went 1-15 in the crucible?" People just throw around the word earned. They have different perceptions of how it is earned. I Put Deej in there because I have already seen people say .." Yeah, cheese Crota and earn that shader" I tried to point out why earning through nightfalls and raids etc ( way before the dark below) is the reason some are so opposed to someone just buying it from Xur. But then again, those people that bought it from Xur did the same exact stuff as the ones that already had it. They just were not the lucky ones. They earned it as well. A deserving way of earning it. And yes i know it is confusing, but do you follow lol?

Yeah i do follow, and now i fully understand. I agree with you completely. Awesome post man, i hope everyone reads it because its all true.
