Things that bother me about the man/lady thing on the internet:

Guise what give gorls extra stuff in MMORPGs (Note that gorls what accept stuff on MMORPGs don't bother me.  If I were a gorl I'd do it, in fact I've considered pretending to be a gorl to get stuff)

Gorls what think playing Call of Duty badly makes them hawt gamer chicks and extremely desirable

Guise what think above are extremely desirable

Guise what ask girls for nude pics as a "joke"

Guise/Gorls what reference xkcd when above happens.

Guise/Gorls what care what's in other people's pants when all they interact with is letters on a screen.  Nothing is going to come of it.  It doesn't matter.  If you call someone he/she/them/it/whatever and they correct you, honor their request.  Other than that, it is not important.

I met one devoted gamer girl in my times, though she was way far on the feminist side, so she almost came off as a mockery of herself. From the more 'average' women I know that play games, they tend to be a lot more casual, significantly less destructive in the genres they play, and usually combine games with movies and Netflix, so unless they're part of a clan, they move around a lot.

On Skype, I've noticed games are more of a side hobby, and not a main one to most of them.

I'm sure I've met plenty of girls that like videogames, the same way I'm sure I've met plenty of guys that play videogames.  Unless there's a reason it comes up, it doesn't come up.

I met one girl in college who actively started conversations about games, specifically World of Warcraft.  She apparently played it all the time, with her husband.  She loved WoW.  Really loved WoW.  For a public-speaking course, we had to do persuasive speeches, where you sell the benefits of some concept or activity.  She did a speech selling the benefits of roleplaying, in a (very Brooklyn-ish) "Troll" accent from beginning to end.

That one wins the internet.

I was playing against someone with a tag something like "hawtgamer_girl348P8"
 who used a light machine gun with juggernaut and martyrdom.

They'd just run in a room, pump the atmosphere full of lead, and kill everyone without even aiming.
If you could last long enough to take down the juggernaut-aided health,
 chances are that the martyrdom would blow up just close enough to finish off your bullet filled self.

This person did pretty well overall, but you never once felt your death was justified or fair when killed by her/him.

Unskilled maybe, but it sounds like a perfectly legit tactic to me.  Mainly because it fits my style perfectly.

Yeah, I agree, she beat you guys.  I'd be raging just as hard, but she still beat you.  And yeah, that's pretty much what I do in Call of Duty.  I run around with an SMG and every time I see someone I spray at them from the hip.  Works pretty well.

When I said play badly, I meant play poorly.  As in, .2 kdr.  I didn't mean kick ass by means you don't appreciate.

Generally, noobcannoning isn't regarded very highly.  Although admittedly there is something to be said if you managed to come across the efficacy of that combination yourself.  Not so much if someone told you about it.


Oh, and that's nothing.  I once managed to hold down a 1-9 KDR in a Battlefield 2 match.  Didn't score me any chicks though.

I still want to know why "Goblin" doesn't have two options.  Last I checked, Goblins don't reproduce by mitosis.

Like I said, last I checked.  I guess I need some peer-reviews of my findings for them to count.

I believe that goblin gender is unnecessary. Intimate relationships usually involve sacrificing something to their dark gods and a new goblin is spawned from the depths of the nether-nether.

For that matter, I'm wondering why there's two options for dwarfs. Dwarven females? How could you tell?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

On a different note, know what pisses me off? When someone acts like a prick to a female gamer, and then someone else says "dude, don't be such an asshole" and is branded a white knight and is suddenly a loser. Not, "dude, can't you see this wonderful women is trying to have a good time?" or "dude, how dare you, women are creatures to be admired!" or something similar but just calling the guy out for being a prick and bam, he's a white knight and a dork and dude she doesn't need your defense you creepy fuck. This has never happened to me personally, but since I will call someone out if they're acting like a dick to anyone it's only a matter of time. Wheeee, looking forward to that.
