This is true.
And dumb now. First day of Iron Banner = mostly LVL27s and up and no one quitting and 6v6 always. Second day of Iron Banner = scrubs below LVL20 joining and quitting 4 minutes in cause the other team has a 1000 point lead. I WANT THOSE 4 MINUTES BACK YOU CRAVEN FUCKS!
Almost at Rank 2. I'll be glad to be done with this event sooner than the last.

Then there are the level 29's full on raid gear that take all of the damage while murdering everyone...
Don't forget the lag either...every single match so far there's been someone skipping around murdering everyone, or someone killing my teammates and me before dying to a headshot by one of us while we're all respawning.
Then of course you have the games where everyone disconnects except for one or two people...
I still don't see how Bungie could make PvP so unbalanced and boring to play; auto rifles, and shotguns FTW; when their work with Halo is some of the best competitive MP I have seen in a sic-fi FPS.

You and me both, brother. At least be thankful that you're not like me and end of up with that one single lvl 12 player on your team, after which when my squad is losing (because they suck so hard) they all leave, leaving me alone on the team with the lvl 12'er. 
Seriously, having you receive NO rep if your team loses is a f***ing joke, when your measure of success becomes dependent on others. At the very least, have it be a much lower amount of rep that you receive if you lose (like in the normal Crucible).
Regular pvp is slightly balanced, but not really.
Iron Banner is not balanced because it's an ego boost for everyone in full raid gear.
You forgot to mention the auto rifle spammers.
EDIT: Ok, through a lot of luck, I managed to reach Rank 2 of Iron Banner and buy the IB class item (so now I can do that one bounty which requires the class item, shader, and emblem). I was about to see how much rep you receive once you hit Rank 2, along with wearing the class item, shader, and emblem during the match, buttttttttt......
Connection error "baboon".....
I thought the last update was suppose to fix this sh*t?
EDIT EDIT: Ok, it looks like if you equip the emblem, shader, and class item, you'll receive 33 rep points from winning an IB Control match and equipping all 3 will up the rep of the bounty reward by 30%. Which helps some, considering that to reach Rank 3 you need 2400 rep points.... and with this broken FUBAR of an event, that's going to be an even bigger challenge than reaching Rank 2...
Well me and my clan finished the Vault of Glass last night, I got the Atheon's Epilogue Auto Rifle out of it, and this gun is crazy!
An auto rifle with 69 bullets per clip that deals void damage, grows increasingly accurate the longer it is fired, the bottom half of each magazine deals bonus damage, and it does increased damage to oracles in the Vault of Glass.
What's not to like?
Do wish there was an easier way to get people to help out with Strikes and shiat. Blindly adding people or sending messages is hella lame tbh. I'm not one for the whole "I'm gonna annoy the living crap out of you, total stranger!" Blegh.

She had to get it from someone. 
I'm dreading going back into the Iron Banner. I want to at least get to rank 2 and get the class item, the bond looks cool. Grinding out the bounties is going to be a pain. Headshots with a machine gun. If I stay alive long enough to shoot someone with my machine gun, I'm aiming for the large torso-shaped part of the enemy (also known as the torso), not the little head which is bobbing up and down as they crouch, strafe and double-jump all over the place while lagging.
Maybe I'll just go do some of the vanguard bounties and hope I get the exotic bounty for A Voice in the Wilderness. I've ditched several of those exotic missives but that one seems to be one of the only ones that doesn't require pvp.
EDIT: Glad I did decide to go and do a vanguard bounty, because I just got another missive pop up and it included Voice in the Wilderness. Yes, exotic machine gun here I come!
Got New Monarchy up to Rank 3, so now I have all the factions at Rank 3 now - got the legendary scout rifle "The Crusader" from my faction package at the postmaster for it, which has much better bonuses than the version sold by the NM vendor (mine has high damage on one random shot from the magazine and causes the enemy to explode on precision kills). Another legendary item that's going to my Hunter when she eventually reaches lvl 20, lol (been too busy with Iron Banner to level her up).
I honestly don't know if I'll reach Rank 3 of Iron Banner or not, but apparently, you can also win the new IB legendary weapons from the match itself - today I got the new legendary IB hand cannon "Timur's Lash" from completing a match, which has a swappable upgrade that I've never seen before called Explosive Rounds, which basically causes AoE damage to those surrounding the target.
@DuckSoup Have you done the raid yet because if you haven't I can help you out and I'm free this weekend.
Ok, little tip for those playing the Iron Banner:
If you happen to have the Pocket Infinity exotic fusion rifle and you have it mostly upgraded, at least to earn it's "Pocket Infinity" bonus... make that weapon your new best friend. (along with whatever best auto rifle you have)
No joke, having a fusion rifle that can fire in full-auto will seriously clear out a room full of jackasses trying to take your control point, lol 
Especially if you took the upgrade to give it 8 rounds instead of 3. If you see a bunch of red on your radar coming towards your position, just start charging it up and when you catch a glimpse of the enemy player/s, unleash holy fiery hell on them.
Yo. How do you do with looting random stuff, killing the same enemy rush over and over again with next to zero storytelling. It must be really amusing. Now I understand why Warhammer: Spacemarine and Borderlands 1 are such great games.

I played Borderlands 1 and 2 beyond the point that a year ago, I could tell you every build that is the most effective for each class, exactly what every flavor text effect did, and what bosses will drop what loot.
I lost the fun in that game. I tried modding, and it only killed the game faster for me.
Destiny, Destiny I see lasting longer for me. I have multiple characters, that manage each other (AKA, all Ascendant Materials go to my main), and the game will be getting a much longer support, and it's dedicated solely to this game.
All I'm really saying is(tl;dr): I have no idea why I am playing this game, but I want to continue playing this game, regardless if I find the reason I like it as much as I do.

You're just deluded by the graphics!
I didn't mention Borderlands 2 because it is one of the best games evar. Story & Plot, Characters, Gameplay, Loots, etc. /Fact
And you can't just play a game forever. They always reach a point when you'll put them down. Like I don't play Civilization III anymore.

Please let me tag along... 
I hear Destiny sucks. The only good part was the first 20 minutes of the game, and the rest of the content got cut out to be resold as DLC.
I'm thinking of getting Destiny, how's the game? Should I get it?
AMA.

It's a good time sink, but other than that...

That fusion rifle is quite annoying, it seems to have a quite long range.
Anyone want to join me in a Fireteam, my add on XBL is: Gemaphrodite.
I'm not too shabby, either

You heard wrong.

destiny is awesome
my little pony sucks though
sucks hard

It doesn't suck per se. It's as good as the people in it.
Personally though, I think that sucks.. but that's because I don't care about other people. Like MMOs, you have to like the social element. The game itself will only take you so far.
