Women of Norrath, what's your experience?

[Faerie]

Bitches ain't shit but hoes and tricks.

There do seem to be fewer women on red than on blue and what I recall from live. Maybe it's just because there are less people in general. The few RL female friends I have that play MMOs are also complete bluebies, even in games like WoW where a player isn't really penalized for poor pvp performance.

Could also because red is toxic to a hilarious degree. I ain't even mad--that's what hardcore pvp is about. Burning a motherfucker's house down after he takes your camp.

Funny thread. I especially love the posts saying women cause the drama, whine too much, suck at the game, or can't take criticism. Or we're all supposedly whoring ourselves out for loot. What a bunch of bullshit. Guys who roll female toons and try to pass themself off as girls are the most guilty of doing that, thank you very much.

And as for the whining drama-queen types it's usually the guys who act like the biggest bitches around here.

Yeah, I said it.

This is my biggest complaint with female gamers. I don't mind playing with girls but nobody is going to buy this. Lot of lonely guys in Norrath, women manipulate for what they want. Seen it too many times.

I wasn't taking offense either; you're just wrong is all [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I don't see that as anything but a perk.

I don't feel like I have ever received preferential treatment for being female playing MMOs. On the other hand I don't feel like I've ever been treated badly because of it either. I don't go out of my way to tell people I am a girl but if someone asks me I don't have a reason to lie about it.

The most mind-boggling thing that happens to me is that occasionally someone doesn't believe I am actually female IRL. At that point I don't really care if anyone believes me, because I don't have anything to prove to anyone on P99. The only people who really matter to me have heard me talk in TS, and know whether or not I am.

There is that one guy every once in awhile that is creepy and pervy (especially after hearing me talk in TS) but those experiences are pretty far and few between.
