AFKing in STRIKES
Unlocked my quest for the New Monarchy Exotic class item on my Warlock yesterday. Ran my 10 strikes in Heroic and I noticed something. Almost every strike had someone AFK and grab rewards at the end. Some guys were trying to be clever and would scoot forward, shoot, then hide once we engaged the enemy. Heroic strikes aren't ball-busting, but running them with only 2 as opposed to a full team can be painful.
The worst strike I had by far had a guardian named (had to remove name but will post vid tomorrow). If you see him in strikes, just leave. If you see him in crucible, own him. This piece of siht did nothing but tuck himself into corners and shoot only when we were looking. He was completely absent and hiding in a nook in the wall at the boss. Then when the boss died, guess what dropped?
The Imago Loop. For THAT GUY.
I had as many assists as he had kills.(29, I had 139 kills at the end) And he gets the one gun I still haven't managed to get. Bungie, you need to do something to stop people from cruising through strike playlists and reaping the rewards because this is stupid. And it's like this a for almost every strike I join.
So sound off fellow guardians! Share your strike playlist horror stories below!

Same goes for Iron Banner, the rewards were so -blam!-ing hideous that players would hit rank 5 and then AFK match after match in hopes of a good drop in post game rewards... It doesn't matter how often or how many times you report them (or laggers), Bungie doesn't do shit about it because if they did their active player base would drop off significantly! So congrats Bungie, your player base is full of PVE/PVP AFK'ers, Red barring scrubs who purposely flood their network to give them a lag advantage, people who purposely drop/choke their MTU settings, people who brazenly lag switch and boast about it. During my time playing online using PSN before Destiny I may have collectively reported or blocked 40 people over 2-3 years, over the past year playing Destiny I've probably reported/block/submitted grief reports on over 200+ users and counting...
