Seems a little odd doesn't it. Of all the weeks with Xür's inventory, this week is post worthy about a specific item.
Just a bit of suspicion about Xür being RNG or controlled. The context of the post kinda leans towards the latter in my opinion.
Thoughts?

2 RespuestasIt was worthy of a comment because the butthurt earners were frothing at the mouth more than usual this time (poor little things got themselves all excited by the 4chan post claiming Xur would never sell IB or jellyhorn again, Xur taking them lubelessly by surprise like that must have been extremely unpleasant) The one thing DeeJ CANNOT do, is come out and tell the earners that they're a bunch of idiots, that's a career ender for PR people. But he can be positive to the rest of the player base by coming over and contradicting them in no uncertain terms. That's what he was trying to do, reinforce for all the new players buying it (honestly most vets don't give the earner crowd a second thought, but new players could conceivably be influenced or scared away from the game by that kind of raging) that they did in fact earn it and deserve to have it and enjoy it (and by implication tell the earners that no, you are wrong, in the hopes at least some of them will look at the situation with an ounce of critical thinking and realize hey, Bungie says my way of thinking is wrong, maybe I need to re-evaluate my stance on this) Not that that would really do anything, the kind of closed minded gamer that it takes to end up in that mindset in the firstplace (for more than a few weeks anyway, coming to an understanding Bungie isn't WoW etc can take a little time and that's okay, it takes time to adjust to new ways of doing things, *if* a person is willing to adapt, sadly most are not) isn't going to do any such thing, as anyone with said critical thinking skills has already adapted and accepted that Bungie uses the term "exotic" to mean something different than a lot of other games.

Because every one and their mother wouldn't shut up about the damn thing so he can finally take that yellow sticky off his office wall.
-
Orrrrrr He turned on Destiny, found Xur and saw that he that he was selling the IceBreaker like everyone else.
-
Of course they decide what Xur has.
-
The only context or evidence towards any suspicion of it being RNG or controlled is solely in your head. The post came long after xur was already selling it and he forums were flooded with whiney children. You can still see those post being made today.
-
Make sure you only use the highest quality tinfoil for your conspiracy disrupting hat. Anything less and Bungie/illuminati will be able to send you brainwashing signals and hatch more nefarious plots against the Destiny community.

5 RespuestasThey vote every Thursday on what will be in Xur's inventory
-
3 RespuestasHe made the post to try and curb the retardedness of the earned vs Xurned posts. It didn't work.

6 RespuestasEditado por Saint Josh: 1/20/2015 4:14:52 PMIt was a reaction post due to all the crybaby melted snowflakes making 30000 douchey threads implying that the new folks don't deserve IB. DeeJ said that anyone with the coins deserves it. They earned it. Something I completely agree with. TLDR- A million special snowflakes melted into a flood of angry nerd tears. DeeJ said deal with it. That is all.
-
Nothing suspicious about it... Thousands of loosers crying about its sale and he responded by saying enjoy your item.
-
1 RespuestaHe was telling all the cry babies complaining about people not earning the weapons to suck it up. It was insane the amount of posts that came out crying that day. Insane.
-
His post was more aimed at the people who said "if you bought icebreaker from Xur, you didn't earn it". The amount of threads like that over the weekend was insane.
-
Honestly, I think it was in reference to all the pieces of shit out there who tried to make people feel bad for buying saying the need to "earn" it. When they only have it cause RNG blessed them. I think DeeJ was trying to say, hey if you got the coins buy it, that's why it's there.
-
Who cares? It's either random or not. Complaining won't change anything.
-
Thing is, I couldn't give a shit if xurs inventory was chose by hamsters. This whole thing is like the dumbest conspiracy theory ever.
-
Thought the same thing, even discussed it with my brother lol
-
1 RespuestaFor those of us that have been around as long will remember he posted something similar the last time xur sold icebreaker and the forums crybabies did the same exact thing.
-
If not RNG then they probably felt they had to respond to the post about IB and Ghorn no longer in xurs inventory, by selling the lesser of 2 evils since not everyone would believe them if they said the post was a lie
-
1 RespuestaThere is a team for choosing xurs inventory
-
The google.
-
3 RespuestasHe did it because there was a "gaming news" site that said that icebreaker and Ghorn was taken out of xurs inventory so I'm guessing that he just did that to say that the news article was a lie
-
I don't think his post is indication of one or the other. Both before and after this weekend, there were tons of posts regarding Ice Breaker and "earning" it. The forum's been littered with such posts about it for days now. I think it's highly likely that's what prompted him to post that message.
-
1 Respuesta... He had to stop the 1000 threads that were being made because people were crying. He basically stepped in and stopped the crying. Until you came in and stirred the pot.
-
2 RespuestasHas Bungie ever claimed Xür's inventory is RNG? I can't recall them ever saying it was.
-
He posted it to tell all the whiney bitches out there that strange coins are earned too.
-
i think bungie and deej was sick of all the posts bitching about it so deej had to come out and tell everybody to shut up everybody deseavered to have that gun weather you got it in a random drop or saved up the coins, kinda sad for real
