I don't support the changes, but it isn't going to change anything for me. I still won't discriminate, and I'll still be able to beat the content. I've never been elitist. I play for fun. The only thing this patch is going to do for me is make the game less fun. That's why I don't like it.
If you want to blame this on the exclusionist attitudes of others, go ahead...but it's been proven already that people would be ghorn elitists with or without the patch. All this patch does is bring out the closet elitists and give them that push to get over their trepidations.
Edit: and fyi, if you're this angry over a weapon nerf that you're willing to exclude players just to spite Bungie, there's something really wrong with you. Grow up, and stop taking a video game so seriously.
