You probably won't read this. While I agree that the Internet spawns some horrific attitudes, you have to be a Damn fool to get offended by it. It is so easy to ignore it, knowing that these people who say those things would never say that in real life. The fact that I have to say this saddens me. It seems that some people will always take things said over the Internet too personally.

Unfortunately, he's not the only one who's suffering in the world. Shedding a tear for every single sob story will dry you out very quickly; people eventually become emotionally numb to these kinda things. There's too much pain in the world to waste all your bandages on one man. At the end of the day, people die every day. By giving all your attention to one person who is still alive, you're as much a part of the problem as those who show their disdain for him. Food for thought. All the people defending him are probably far less morally righteous in reality. The internet can skew our perception of one another quite easily, so quite frankly I'm taking everything said with a grain of salt... but who am I to say anything? I'm just another patron in the internet cafe, so to speak.

Caring about one particular individual who has cancer does not make you morally superior to people who do not care - instead, it's a demonstration of your intellectual inferiority. The world is full of suffering. Everyone suffers through sickness, old age, and eventually death. You have decided to care about this one individual out of billions who are suffering solely because he is suffering in the limelight and you want positive attention for jumping on the bandwagon. You want to make a show out of how much you care about him, and how that makes you better than everyone who doesn't. If you're such a great person, go help some people who are suffering outside of the public view, and don't tell anyone about it. So just shut up already. Gaming is an escape from suffering for many of us. We don't need to feel guilty about wanting to enjoy our escape instead of lathering attention onto some unfortunate individual and the army of white knight idiots holding him captive for their masturbatory pleasure. You have no way of knowing what any of us contribute to anything when we're not here listening to your narcissistic rants.

The people who are complaining make me embarrassed to be a human being. I say to keep things fair, Bungie puts up the money for anyone who wants to have the same surgeries this man has had and then they can have the gun too. And that will be the only way to get it. See how important getting that gun is then. It is disgusting how people show compassion for other people, karma will catch up. What if it was one of your loved ones, would you still be complaining? These children who are making these comments, who put virtual materiel possessions, not even something they can touch, before compassion, understanding & love deserve to...have something painful happen to them or their loved ones so they can understand how it feels and then have people on the internet ridicule them instead of compassion and love. It's disgusting and if there is Karma I hope it shows up. PS karma, I have a list of people you have missed...don't miss these people though

I sick of you guys making post trying to look like a white knight. I could care less. I won't be playing this game long enough to care. I just think Bungie did as lazy a job with this PR act as they did when making Destiny. How hard would it have been to raise some money for this guy? I mean a f ucking digital gun? Thats it? A f ucking gun. Wow you went all out for the guy. Hey you congrats on surgery that could have killed you, btw log in and download this gun. We care. Nice PR act Bungie. You needed this at the moment when your game is being viewed a bit negatively. For christ sake also. Can we please recognize the wife. You know the one who made the post about her husband and actually was the one that got him the gun. No you don't see anybody praising her. They just say good job Bungie even though you made how much off the game and can't spare him some change. I mean how hard would it be to slap your Bungie logo on a post asking gamers for $1 to $5 donations. That shit would add up and gamers would eat that shit up. Touche Bungie's PR. You look good in the public eye and it cost you nothing.

SLOW CLAP AND APPLAUSE TO THIS GUY! I was also shocked to see how high the levels of asshole people can reach these days, really happy to see there are a few people not only with common sense but a heart big up to you my good sir!

It's a shame people are getting so worked up over this. Did you notice how Bungie has made no mention to this whatsoever? There's two things you can draw from that actually. Either the original poster on reddit made a huge elaborate lie (which is very unlikely), or Bungie, once again, quietly gave back to a person in the community. Destiny has already been used on more than one occasion for charity, and Bungie has fully supported these events. And yet, we're going to look at Bungie as this evil corporation? Why? Because somebody got a new toy and you didn't? I shutter to think that the same people posting on these forums actually walk around in the real world and work real jobs (well, that's alot of assumption being made on the job issue, but I digress). It's funny how these same people would most likely be embarrassed to be confronted about this stuff face-to-face. And what about all of these other people saying, "where's my gun?"....just...really? It's not like Bungie made this a huge public deal and said "This is the only man in our community that is experiencing hardship, so we're going to single him out and give him a new gun". This was a small, quiet, gesture simply out of the sake of kindness to a member of the community. If the reddit poster hadn't said anything, you and I wouldn't even know about it! Are we really going to go so low as to complain and call the few folks at Bungie that did this out for it? For goodness sake people, this is pathetic. And to all of the people complaining that this is more content shipped on the disc that we can't access (keeping in mind that I do feel that's a problem with Destiny) have you seen the images that were leaked? It's a re-skinned strangers rifle...thats about it...This gun is more than likely not even out of the idea stage, no where near ready for our use. Guys, this is sad. One small quiet act of kindness and we want to come to blows with Bungie for it? I'll be the first to admit my life has been blessed and fairly comfortable, and I don't know and CANNOT understand the kind of struggles I'm sure many of the people in our community face. I'll also admit that there's alot to be upset about with Destiny in it's current state. This is not an issue that impacts even a fraction of the community though; I won't argue against those that suffer similar illnesses, but for most of us, this is not something we even have the right to complain about. If anyone can look at an act of charity like this and find a way to say any variety of grotesque or selfish things about it....frankly, they're pathetic.

Because people are assholes online, none of these people who says those kind of things here would dare to say them in real life. Why? Talk all big On the internet but actual cowards in real life.
