IN PROFESSIONAL competitions and vast online communities, groups of female gamers are demanding respect from game makers and challenging the assumption that video games are the domain of geeky boys.

Don't you hoes get respect in here already?

damn bitchez

Any girl going QGL?

Restecp for the womenz of gaming, I have known a few of the ladies who kick ass in FPS games and know not to underestimate the sneaky buggers :D.
Since they much of the time think differently to guys they can be unpredictable opponants if they have the skillz.

P.S, Love the Avatar Le Cock :D

I wonder what happened to Nova after we all went swimming that wonderful & fantastic day down at Yeronga..

Girl gamers? Pics or lying!!

There are several things they can START to do for respect in the community in general:

1. Stop using certain combinations of words in their nicknames:

a) kitty
b) angel
c) chick
d) girl/gurl
e) doll

example: angelkitty*

2. Don't call your clan PMS

3. Stop asking boys for items in Diablo2 and/or WoW

4. STOP TALKING SO f***ING MUCH IN THE MICROPHONE IN CS.

4. STOP TALKING SO f***ING MUCH IN THE MICROPHONE IN CS.

I think thats 12 year old boys?

based on my extensive internets experience, girls will never get respect because the vast majority of guys are immature dickwads

example: angelkitty*

or chickgurl!
lolol

BELONG!!!#$!$!%@%@^ That's a very sexist way to talk about deez bitchez!

all girls on the internet are ugly anyway.

i agree ctd, unless they can proove otherwise

i thought women in general were still looking for respect?

if women want our respect, they have to be hawter and be prepared to supply us with pix of themselves nooding up with their best friend (who is also hawt)

or kat

game makers who traditionally have focused on creating games for men.

SIMS FFS.

how is this news?

no one else gets respect online, what makes them think they're going to be any different?

STFU dice

see

They only respect le cock.

or kat

It is the first three letters of my name and I had 17 cats at one stage. If anyone should be called Kat it is me :P

stez is right

stez knows what he's talking about

How in the hell do you make a game oriented to guys? I mean come on it's an FPS you either love it or you hate it whether you're a guy or a girl. Or an RTS or RPG. What do they want all the characters to wear a f***ing dress and go around trying to cook the ultimate dinner? Seriously how would you make something like say CS or quake more "girly"? Pink tu-tu wearing monsters dancing around?

Want respect girls? stop acting like complete idiots and milking the equality bit.

This is hilarious lmbo

good post though man seriously

I think katgurl would be more appropriate.

sounds like we should be listening to the stez.

see the way for a girl to get respect in online games is to just be normal. don't bring attention to her gender and if she is good she will get the respect she deserves.

the reason girls don't get any respect is that there are too many out there putting there gender out in the public domain to try and leverage it for a benifit of some description.

use trinity as a rolemodel, she got respect and everyone thought she was a guy. :)

There shouldnt be a need for a woman to hide her gender to gain respect as a gamer but yeah trying to flaunt it to gain perks is what usually just makes them into cam whores.

The good girl gamers I know just use their own names or a shortened version of it and never draw attention to themselves by spamming on a server "Hey guyz, can you show a gurl around n stuff?".

WHORES!

Yeh that trinity chick who played for SAS she was good but a f***ing ugly bitch.

laf fpot

kat is hot, id show her around ironforge *unfunf*

haha slugman, i was talking about trinity from the Matrix.

She belongs on a cam whore site..

There is one chick (goes by the nick of NurseSan) who plays BF2 on the Node servers who is a damned decent player
~ incidentally, she is also an admin for BF2 as well now.

I also know another chick who's a "dancer" who regularly kick's arse in BF2 as well !
