Being told you can't play a female character because women can't be adventurers? Having people try to roleplay gangrapes to show you your proper place? It wasn't just women being disdainful of gamers that kept women out of the gaming community in significant numbers.
The other side to this, is I know plenty of women who roleplay those gangrapes.

All these complaints, they're not limited to one's sex. It's just how people are. I promise you, if it was a room full of women making the game, they wouldn't be saying "Let's make the guys run the gauntlet in looks." or "Let's make the guys look completely ugly, over weight and hairy, geeky and skinny."

Heh, the only different between the sexual nature of males vs. females is... the females lie about it.

Holeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ****!

You get disapproving looks at meeting at my company for just dropping an F-Bomb in a meeting in ANY context ("this is f'n good coffee!") I am stupefied at the moronic things some people will say, let alone say in a corporate environment. Insane.


Stay Gold, Paragon. Stay Gold.

This is more the fault of corporate "in-breeding" than overall bigotry. Most get in the door because of family, friends, etc, resulting in everyone being like-minded. It's even worse in Hollywood. You should see some of the scripts that are actually being offered for sale, that have wording just as bad.

It's also due to people just trying to be edgy.

It starts out "Make them look hot!"

It got the point across. But then the next person has to come in, and step up the game, get the masses motivated!

It's the power of language.

"This is seriously messed up!" doesn't get people feeling as bad about something, as saying "This is seriously ****ed up!"

Is that always the case? No. But most of the time? Yes.

It doesn't make me want to apologize for being a man.

It does make me want to beat (gently though) some sense into the person with a wooden paddle. I mean the guy acts like a 7th grader, he should be spanked like a 7th grader (in the 80s, when spanking was actually allowed). 5 public swats with the paddle and a months suspension without pay.

Of course, he could be one of "those" people that would actually enjoy the swats...


There I was between a rock and a hard place. Then I thought, "What am I doing on this side of the rock?"

Reminds me of the time, a popular soap star, who played a rapist, got tons of fanmail saying "**** me!" and he was lefting saying "WTF?!"

Basically, people will say the stupidest things.

Forbin started the thread here. I know who started the thread there. Yet you're here still trying to convince yourself I started the thread. Nice troll attempt.

Hey Storm, Please pass on to your friend that I'm sorry he got modded for something I posted over here.

I think sending him back to the 80s is far more punishment than the spanking.


Thought for the day:

That would be not particularly helpful.

However, if you could find a representative of the stupid a$$hat society, it might be helpful to get an apology from him (or her).

Those people never apologize for anything. It kinda goes with being a stupid a$$hat.

And number 2, look at the Andryah's posting history. She is rude to people time and time again without any posts of her going away. She's a known troll over there.
Perfect Pain and Golden Girl were never banned. Every forum has the insufferable fanperson who doesn't get banned for the reason that they play cheerleader for the game.

Or run him over with a lawnmower.
