I was told to back out of a game of trials....

So I usually play a couple of matches of trials with some other friends during the weekend and we run stacked as that's what playing trials is made for, having the bet team possible to compete. So we end up matching another person who at the time was streaming (not going to disclose the name) and they were doing a carry. As you would expect because we are stacked we had them up 3-0 almost 4-0 when I get a msg saying "back out, this guy paid for a carry" from one of the opposing players. Needless to say we 5-0ed them and bagged them the whole time as they were doing paid carries and told us to back out. If you aren't good enough to carry don't take someone's money and say you can. Don't take their money at all, just help them for gods sake. EDIT: Hey guys didn't think this was gonna blow up but I guess good? I'm back to clear some misconceptions. When I say stacked I meant that I ran with a squad of really good players that I often play with meaning good team chemistry and good gun skill. Another thing some people are saying I should have let them win, the issue is that he revived money for something he can't actually do and expects others to help him get said money for nothing in exchange. This is a game, not a escort service. If it was a friend of mine I would have backed out as I know them and trust them. EDIT EDIT: So a lot of people see me as "scummy" for running stacked. The truth is they are my friends and they're good too. I play to play not for Elo or kd (sometimes I do) but I like the aspect of the game and playing with good people. I assume tho that running stacked is frowned upon because I play with friends? Let me go bring up 2 random lfg players and constantly loose.

    I find it funny how many paid carriers get hate. Why would you do something you're good at for free? This is capitalism. You can make money off your skills and strengths. If you're good at anything literally ANYTHING these days there's a chance you get paid for it. They seized their opportunity. Don't hate. Edit: fixed punctuation.

    • I only T-bag if they did to to me first, if they're friendly I never bag. It's always fun to meet friendly people in Trials, especially if you're playing like crap. Anybody who's willing to stop the game entirely and just dance and have fun with the enemy team is a good person.

    • Should have said you'd back out, proceed to win, back out as you win. Message him "okay, we backed out"

      • According to Bungie rules, paid carries should cause ban for those who receive the payment... but as expected nothing happens, and today Trials of Osiris is full of cheaters using Cronusmax/Titan one modes for carry someone who is paying to the light house. People just know, they can cheat as much as they wish and pass unpunished. (No wonder people banned from Overwatch and other games are just roaming free in Destiny, even being top ranking and streaming) Keep this way Bungie, and Destiny 2, in the very moment it touches the PC world, will be an huge flop.

            • I'm so crap that I get bagged all the time; frankly, me playing Destiny is providing an excellent service for those who need to bump their stats. It doesn't bother me since the likelihood is that at some point the bagger will become the bagee elsewhere anyway. Now and again I get a chance to stick a head shot on the person who did it to me and can well imagine their irritation at it. I'm sure that if you are a way more serious player than I am (I suspect so) it might well stick in your craw, but try not to let it bother you. There are Cee U Next Tuesdays everywhere in life, so Destiny isn't immune.

            • What I don't get is what's so great about the lighthouse and it's gear? It can't be so good that people are willing to pay for it. I have not done a single raid, flawless, or strike, but I don't necessarily die to the people with that gear, so I dont get it.

              • While I agree you shouldn't have let them win, I don't agree with the bagging. I don't believe in showing up an opponent, especially when you mercy them. That, to me, is classless and tasteless. There is such a thing as a "sore winner," and you epitomized it.

                    What a dick, if I were you I'd let them win. For all you know the guy who paid will get ditched and waste his money. He wouldn't have really known how good he is

                      • You did the right thing by not complying with their demand. No one should ever charge for helping another guardian. I'm age 73 and there are many goals in Destiny l will never reach but l will never pay for assistance or allow someone to play my character. If l can't reach the lighthouse or finish a raid myself l don't want the rewards for doing them. I commend you for taking a stand and hope others will follow you lead. Thankfully there are many Guardians in Destiny willing to share their time and knowledge to help players like me.

                          You should have charged him to back out. I'm sorry but charging people to carry them should be an automatic ban.

                            T-bagging was real mature. I agree you shouldn't back out but t-bagging was uncalled for.
