Well, it's nice that we have at least a few girls playing. If they make suggestions, maybe this game won't end up being a testosterone fueled killfest.

Not that it isn't already.

On topic, many people seem to think that women would be somehow easy to spot in the internet, from their writing style or something like that, but that isn't true at all.

Really? I thought they all put little hearts for the i-dots and exclamation mark points, so they must be easy to spot.

....They just refuse to stay down unless butchered, in which case their skins will haunt you until you subdue and tan them. Never has legendary butcher and legendary tanner seemed so valueable as in this release.

In my experience, female gamers are more bloodthirsty then the males.

I got to say, if I was a girl on the internet, I would NOT let people know it.

<.< >.> 48:1 ..... Im feeling a little lonely now... I've rp'd in games as guys before and managed to fool others. Then again I've rp'd  girlie girls and still been called a guy so... :P
When I was first introduced to the internet I used to get verry upset when someone called my a guy, anymore its meh...whatever, they'll figure it out eventualy.
When I played a WoW trial with a female character, I had trouble convincing people I was a guy. People believe what they want to believe. ;)

I used to know a female FPS player [CoD 4], she was quite peaceful to be honest.  ;D

Like, 5 girls play this game. That's it.
You are startlingly correct.
