Passive aggressive inappropriate tone from Deej and other Bungie employees

Ive been noticing an increase in the amount of disrespect from bungie employees on community forums. Just look at todays weekly update and the extremely snarky and sarcastic comments from Deej such as "omg he only has 1600 weapon parts left we need to do something" and "we hold the right to do anything with the game economy we want." Does anyone else think snarky comments like this are very unprofessional? Like Bungie you act like your some sort of hero for fixing a problem that YOU created. Here is a comment from another post that explains my thoughts perfectly, all credit goes to user Wahrnye "Just another joke of a weekly update that makes it easier to not look back on this game going forward. Announcing the weapon parts change - Fine, but that's a fix to a problem THEY created. And when addressing the fact that THEY created this problem, DeeJ wraps it up in unnecessary snark about being curators of THEIR living world. Hubris to the highest degree; it's almost as if they're saying how dare we question their choices? Let me say this next part slowly so the apologists can understand: [i][u]Etheric Light and Wormspore uses should have been in the game since September's launch, not something coming soon by December.[/u][/i] They knew Etheric Light was a thing that many people had plenty of and they also introduced Wormspore (apparently) without any regard for what to do with it outside a few weapon upgrades. IIt's going to take them almost 3 months to finally make these things meaningful? These are all issues they created by poor planning or bad oversight, not something they should be praised for fixing AFTER the fact. The rest of the entire update was about the same tired PVP bullshit as almost every other weekly update. No news on new content, no commenting on the terrible loot system - especially in regards to raid drops (I love doing the raid and getting a fourth duplicate item at 302 light... ) - or the fact that Nightfalls, Strikes, and Court of Oryx ceases being rewarding once you reach 300 light or more. I've seen this playbook before. Between this and Activision spouting off their easily manipulated "registered user" numbers (aka 'investor math'), they've pretty much already decided they're going to pander to the base players who believe Bungie can never, ever, do any wrong. Nothing will change going forward. Bungie and Activision are living in their own echo chamber - as evidenced by the fact that they spend more time conversing with the "community" on Bungie-friendly outlets like Reddit and Twitter..." EDIT: A lot of you seem to think im just looking for something to be offended by cuz im a "no balls toxic loser" Its more im just fed up with the bullshit direction this game is taking like timegating exotics that i already payed for to extend gameplay time and patching things like weapon parts for no -blam!-ing reason Perhaps the most irritating thing is the bungie fanboys and dickriders who will stop at nothing to defend everything the devs do to this game and every word that comes out of that douchebag known as Deej's mouth. Go ahead meet me with ninja justice for stating the obvious about your shit company and bottomfeeder fanboys EDIT2 It seems the common defense for Deejs tone is "oh bungie has to go through so much shit and complaining on the forums, people are meanies" You people cant seriously believe its ok for a company to retaliate in this fashion. Oh no a game developer has to see negative feedback about the game they made wahh wahh prayers for bungie" All of you are saying "can the entitled/offended generation go away", if you ask me the people defending bungie with this mindset are the "offended generation." Some of you say, "The customer is always right bullshit has to stop." Anyone who utters this is a complete moron and has either no concept of business ethics or is 15 years old and thinks they are being righteous and hip. Go ahead, start a business and whenever a customer has a problem with you or the product, tell them to -blam!- OFF. Yea thats a good business model, you will surely succeed.

      • Bungie has always been snarky, look up "Harrison's mom". This community doesn't show respect to bungie, itself, or Destiny. Don't you think you are being a little hypocritical?

          Take no notice of him, Deej is a fat C U N T who thinks too high of himself. He wears the same black shirt everytime.

          • They're unprofessional but unfortunately just about 85-90% of the people who play this game are total assholes & I'm sure Deej has read the forums enough to figure this out. Oh well...

              I personally really disliked it when Deej wrote in the weekly update: [i]'Bad Joke - [b]Deal with it'[/b][/i] <- If it's bad, why write it? Why provoke & condescend people? ([i]how about you deal with this punch to the face instead[/i] <- I'm not like that) And in my opinion Deej talking like this just brings out the worst in people. The only explanation I can think of why they think this behaviour is justified (or even wanted) are all the bad comments they have been getting since launch and the young? playerbase which causes it. As if the majority of players are of a certain age and therefore his choice of words are meeting the right target group. Also like the OP said: He talks like he is doing us a favor.. They caused this (sh!t) and now we should be very thankful they even consider adressing it? There's also still nothing about the countless times we still get duplicate exotic items from engrams. My last +15 Exotic Primary weapon engrams have ALL been doubles (and I don't even own half of them) I can hardly understand why anybody could support this - getting the same item, over & over again.. several times in a row.. Sure, keep doing the hard raid just in case you get lucky ! HF with that. It also seems as if the Crucible Daily wait times are increasing (during morning or late @ night hours?) since TTK launch, perhaps more & more people stop playing?

              • I would act that way to if the community was a whiny ass bitch before all the snarky comments. I feel their in the right. Broken game or not you treat them with respect if you want it done right not like a little bitch crying and being a jackass to them. Why? Because prepare to be treated like the jackass you are.

              • I used to think the snarky attitudes were a facade because they knew they were in the wrong, but I'm honestly starting to think they really just do think that highly of themselves.
