Who friggin cares that a girl play's videogames?

[Kyorisu]

I know I'm right.

I hope someone notices this and relates it somehow to religious posts. Here I made the claim I 100% knew I was correct in what I wrote earlier. This has somewhat been proven untrue. Lesson here? Never claim you know your right, it'll slap you in the face at some point.

All this information only goes to support my above statement... women aren't such a rarity in gaming circles that I feel the need to make a big deal whenever I see one.

Yep I agree.

It won't be too far down the road until those numbers are closer to 50/50

And I think that's where it will inevitably stay for the history of gaming.

Well most products should target the sexes equally. You'll still get products aimed purely at one group but those are merely outliers.

In the end the statistics don't matter; 44% of gamers may be female, but 0% will sleep with you.

[Absinthe]

And something that creeps me out... Most guys play as girl characters in most games...

And to this I ask why do you friggin' care?

 

[swiss]

when on occasion i play xbox live at uni, we often get a girl to speak on voicechat (even though she wont be playing) - just for the reaction it gets from the other players.
pretty sad, but its funny as hell for the weird reactions you get from the xbox livers

To be fair, the number of female gamers is so high that any amount a single person could possibly sleep with in their lifetime would probably round down to 0%.

That's one freaky statistic right there .

 

[Trevelyan]

Simple. PC gamers are mature, console gamers are stupid wimpy whiny babies who have never been closer than 60 yards to pussey.

ha ha!

For me it's a rhetorical question. If you can frag with the best of them...:dozey:

And whether you be man or woman, don't hassle or bully people in online games! The Mods will/should get ya!

Hah, you may think that but I've got my girlfriend into playing audiosurf omgomg!

I don't really get the "OMG A GIRL" thing anymore. I used to. Don't get me wrong, sometimes someone will say "is that a girl??!!11oneone" and I say "yes." and they pretty much leave it at that.

Then we all start making rape jokes and much hilarity ensues.

I don't actually know a lot of girls who play games, my friends don't really know that I'm a huge nerd.

OMG OUTED.

 

[Remus]

Xbox live... . Quite frankly I don't get the appeal of voice chat in a multiplayer game. I get annoyed enough seeing stupid messages pop up on the top of the hud. Why the hell would you want to hear the voices of the retards your playing with...

That's cos half the time you start making the rape jokes.

 

[Mr-Fusion]

Whenever a girl is playing online i give her the chance to see me on webcam, naked and oiled up.

Damn, you got me there.

Also I don't think you guys are awful for OMGAGIRLness.

OMG A BOY!

This forum is proof that guys don't just let the whole "it's a girl" idea alone. Toaster + phobie = all the boys getting hard ons just to talk to them. It's like they are climbing over each other just to get a word to 'em. That was when they first appeared, it was really embarrassing.

Then do I have to remind anybody of the Princess Jen incident :O

 

[Trevelyan]

as someone who is relatively new to this forum, dare/should i say yes...

 

[-Kashmir-]

I have never heard a girl actually speaking on Xbox Live. I think most of them are too afraid (or non-existant).

On the topic of young guys though, I swear to god I was playing Call of Duty 4 yesterday with a FOUR YEAR OLD. His voice and the way he spoke was enough to prove it. People made fun until he started kicking ass...

Hmm..


Maybe the guy got his 4-year old little brother/cousin/whatever to talk into the microphone. NO parent is that careless to let a 4-year old child play a Mature video game.

 

[Vegeta897]

Toaster + phobie = all the boys getting hard ons just to talk to them. It's like they are climbing over each other just to get a word to 'em. That still happens to this day, it is really embarrassing.

Fixed. Never before have new members even come close to becoming as popular as Phobie or Toaster as fast as they have. And it's not just the male side's cause, they know how to whore it up, so to speak.

No offense to anyone!

Also Absinthe wins.

Just replace "audience" with "girl" and "Total dickwad" with "Desperate horny old goat".

I considered the possibility, especially considering his skill... which is pretty sad, tbh.

Princess Jen incident was horrible. I'm probably the only one who didn't talk to her.

Holy shit. That is terrible. Hahahaha. Isn't Rak still around?

Btw, I for one care if the girls are hogging my internets. I just want to hear men's voices whilst in game. I live in the '50s by the way.

Also, Raz, we are meeting up and that is final.

I don't care about girls playing video games, but girls not being able to use a damn apostrophe correctly annoys me.

Also, I've seen Toaster talk about the fact that she's a girl much more than the guys on this forum have. Every second post she seems to make either points out the fact that she's a girl or how she finds nerds/skinny pale guys attractive. She's half way to becoming one of those girls who post naked picks of themselves on 4chan and ask would anonymous do her. Then she started preaching about how the feminist movement was so necessary when I went on a non-serious rant about feminists.

Edit: I just looked over toaster's posts and they're not as bad as I thought, but they are incredibly girly. I mean they are just like what you'd expect a stereotypical pink-loving girly girl to post. I find it hard to believe that a girl who's on a a HL2 fan forum could be that damn girly without trying to be extra girly.

 

[99.vikram]

Could someone link to the so called Princess Jen incident? It sounds intriguing. :E

 

[NeptuneUK]

The online gamers typical attitudes towards others will depend entirely on the game being played, different games have different target audiences and/or have certian cult status within particular age groups.



Edit: I'll go back to saying stupid things now, sometimes I remind myself of Crabman from My Name is Earl.

 

[Sam]

Hey, Crabman.

Hey, Earl.

We should instate a cry of "vagina ahoy" whenever there's a girl on a game, to alert everyone else.

I think you'll find that most male's posts on these forums make weird references to them being male, being exactly what you'd exepct a stereotypical red/blu-loving manly man to post, most of the time.

Hell the drug threads and the sex threads alone pretty much confirm that.
