Taking the piss out of themselves? More like they're pissing on us.

This is the viewpoint I don't get though. You ended this post saying it's not a big deal, it's a very minor thing, but you still get mad about them joking about it... it's either one or the other. Either it's worth being upset about AKA it IS a big deal, or it's not which makes the joke not a big deal either. They are DEFINITELY not pissing on us, at worst one could say it is a badly timed, unfunny joke, at best it's making fun of their own limitations, something everyone should learn how to do.

I don't want to argue about this, I'm not trying to offend you or anyone else about this, I just don't see how them making a joke about something that almost all of us admit is not a big deal is even remotely offensive. Personally the second I saw that stat I laughed along with several people around me I showed it to that were Destiny players. Bungie obviously all thought it was funny and were not intending to hurt anyones feelings. I totally agree with the mindset that people and companies should be mindful of other people's feelings, but sometimes I also just take a step back and say "I'm offended, but did they mean offense? Is it even a big deal?" It actually made me a lot happier as a person when I learned to do that.
