[quote]They do though. This forum is filled with people, if you check their profiles, they don't even play destiny, or haven't in months/years. Not all of them, but most[/quote] I broke up with a woman that I dated for almost a year....and remained good friends with her for over 10 years after that. Just because I decided that I couldn't LIVE with parts of her personality as significant other...doesn't mean that I stopped caring about her or what happened to her. When my sister in-law gave birth to my nephew, three years ago want to know---out of all my friends----who was the only person who went out and bought gifts for him? [i]Her. [/i] That moment showed who she really is. It was all the OTHER things she did that protect that part of herself from being hurt, that I couldn't deal with. So I backed away to a safe distance (for me) from them. But that core of her personality that she tried to hide....was more than worth keeping her as a friend. Destiny is a lot like my friend. It does a shit-ton of irritating things that frustrate you, push you away....and make caring about it a painful experience at times. So it forces people---at times---to back away from the craziness in order to protect themselves. But they don't stop caring about the game, and what happens to it. They also are reluctant to give up the hope that it can turn things around.
