I know the struggle of what that one guy went through who got the Fate of all Fools. Seriously. Not only is this game much harder when you're forgetting stuff about the game every few days, but then just today alone I got kicked from three raid groups because of my memory problems! My memory has slowly been getting better since playing destiny. I've been forgetting stuff every couple days, I can remember most things for almost a week. That's progress.
Then there are some parts of the raid I forgot. There is no reason you should kick someone from a raid for a medical condition they have no control over!
The reason I had brain surgery was because I had a colloid cyst in my head since before I was born and had no idea it was there. I've had terrible migraines so I went to the hospital three times. The first two times they gave me a migraine cocktail and some morphine, then told me to suck it up. I third time I went they did a ct scan and found a colloid cyst. Went on a Leave of Absence with Amazon and had the surgery. After the surgery I've been having black outs, memory loss, and slurred speech. The slurred speech I can control with enough concentration. The black outs are rare, but they happen, and I can't remember a thing for more than 2-4 days. I have to keep a journal on everything that goes on in my life. Oh, and Amazon fired me because of the memory loss too. They wouldn't reverse my termination either, but instead made me eligible for rehire. Just so I had a chance to fail to not get my job back.
So it's not just some destiny players giving me a hard time. My employer is giving me issues too.
But seriously, guys, if you run into anyone that has a medical condition that they can't control, give them a chance. Don't be a jerk. Just saying.
[b][i]EDIT4: So apparently I forgot to mention that I was kicked before the raid started, and after I explained myself and my condition. So that happened! Sorry folks. I put the fourth edit up here because it was the most important.
[/i][/b]
[b]EDIT1: In the event that this post is viewed a lot, I want to make one thing absolutely clear. I don't want anything special, nor have I received anything special. I just wanted to make known that there are people who have issues they can't control. So please just give everyone a chance. Okay? Thank you.
EDIT2: I think I mentioned it before in a reply already, but before people go off the rails over the Amazon business, I am gonna be working for them again. My termination wasn't reversed, but they did hire me back. I have a start date. But it's a ways off. But still salty over the fact that I was fired.
EDIT3: Because it's kinda hard to reply to everyone personally, just wanted to thanks to everyone that has supported me morally. I'm being serious. I knew the Community was a good place to tell everyone this. I'll do my best to reply to everyone when I can. Promise![/b]

Sorry to hear about your condition. I hope that everything goes well for you.

Sorry to hear that man, hope you are able to start remembering things better soon.

I feel your pain. I had 4 brain surgeries in 22 days in February. I don't Remember the entire month of March. I lost my job in May and will have back surgery sometime next year. This is no lie or joke. I kinda have the opposite of what you have. I can remember little things that happened in destiny but can't remember anything in my real life. My memory sucks also. Sometimes I can't even remember what I had for breakfast. Goodluck on everything going on in your life.

Modificato da an engram full of bees: 12/19/2015 8:57:12 PMI'm so sorry to hear that man. It sucks that there's people on this game who don't have the best record for patience... Are you free tonight or next weekend, though? I'd love to do the raid with you if you still wanna do it. Normal, Hard, or Challenge, you name it.

1 RispondiYou have my respect sir! I don't think many people here can imagine how difficult it is to live with the hand you've been dealt. I know I can't even begin to imagine how hard you have it. And if people treat you like that, then it's a good riddance! You don't need that discouragement. I'm sure that you'll find a group of player that enjoy being in your company! This post brought out the good side of the community, and you have my thanks. I would love to see the community like this on a daily basis. And if you're on Xbox One, I would love to play with you! I'm with a group of exceptional players, and I'm sure that we can help you through anything in the game. If you ever need help, or want someone to play with, my GT is P3RZIANZ3BRA. Feel free to message me whenever. Happy holidays Guardian!

I just had brain surgery back in may. just when I though I was getting better. BAM! thyroid is shutting down, kidneys are in bad shape, pituitary is only running at 50-60%, and I ended up in the hospital last weekend, and now I need a pacemaker. the memory part sucks, plus it's hard to focus/concentrate. it can be very frustrating

Modificato da Jeff the Cabal: 12/19/2015 6:34:14 PMThe guys who kicked you were just immature brats. It's the Internet man, I'm sorry to hear you had to run into people like that. :) If you're on ps4 I'll be glad to help out. Right now I'm kinda taking a break from destiny but I'll be on sometime in the future and wouldn't mind another friend tagging along through my adventures :D
-
Wow, those guys are insensitive and rude. I hope you have a quick recovery and you can enjoy Destiny more without those kind of people. If you ever need someone to raid with just invite me. My gamer tag is TitteringChip26, and I'm on 360.
-
The guys who kicked you are dicks. End of story.
-
I'm glad you are trying to get back on your feet. but dont blame society in general. in all aspects, if you cannot play the role 100% required, then you are not suitable for it, yet. so dont get upset you got kicked or fired... it will happen. just concentrate on making a full recovery first.
-
I respect people's dumbness when raiding cause some times I get really high and suck when I play so I feel the struggle.
-
1 RispondiI hate people like that.

Modificato da Awoken Genius: 12/19/2015 7:17:02 AMI can't imagine what it would be like in your position. I could try but i doubt it would be remotely similar. I suffered a fracture skull, broken neck and back and I'm just thankful I didn't need surgery and can still walk. I know what a bad memory short term Is like and I know what it's like to hear voices, see things that aren't there results of psychosis. Depression and anxiety, plus I'm the ultimate loner who barely eats and i'm an ex alcoholic, many suicide attempts. I still can't imagine any of that being worse than what you've gone through. But hang in there man, many people sadly lack compassion. Compassion is what we all need, so don't beat yourself up or anything show yourself compassion. If i could choose one thing to always remember that's what I'd probably choose.

Had severe brain surgery myself. Hang in there man it keeps getting better. The left side of my body was paralyzed, had to learn to walk an everything again. My balance an left hand is still messed up after 18 months. Destiny helped me get my hand moving again, still always zoom in when I'm running cause I can't tell my left finger is moving lol. Anyways stay positive and I wish you the best
