Maybe, but it serves no relevance to the point the person's making, you seem to have trouble with seeing that.

Actually I didn't write that you didn't want us to post. Comment was on how important and relevant any of our posts would be as we aren't the Right Type for this issue. Related to the other thread where a poster seemed to be serious about fitness being a requirement to talk about relative fitness. And As for women in game design changing things, who knows. If those girls played COD, GTA, ME, etc, they'll probably grow up into women that will be interested in those kinds of games, but I suppose we may end up with innovative games (hopefully actually innovative, I'm still not sold on the glory Dear Esther possesses). I suppose a female Carmack would do wonders, someone that is brilliant at the technical aspects.

I suspect otherwise. As for women not wanting to talk about it, well that just means they've been brainwashed by the patriarchy.

Nah, we can, but apparently it's not all that important.

There's a surprise. Who's been chased off and by whom ? Probably too much to expect more detail on that charge from you, but that'd be rather impressive to see someone 'chased' off a forum. And dramatic flouncing off like some PE people did way back, doesn't count.

Not really projecting much, seemed pretty clear what with you posting a backhanded comment in the thread and it really is the kind of thing you'd post based on past history. It'd benefit the discussion probably to have more women, but unless you're planning to go out and press gang some in here, we're stuck with what we have.

Time to cut the cord on this one

Thread on the Escapist is pretty good for it, too.

Do notice a diminishing of the technical innovations as opposed to story ones (or whatever the hell they call the aspect that engages players emotionally, supposedly) in some of these articles. Shame, as the engineering aspect of games is a pretty cool thing.

Sure, you're lamenting men only talking about it now but you can't see that in your post ? Seemed pretty clear what your snarky joke was getting at.

Sounds like some of them are literally so, just thought them figurative ones. They are also pretty bad trolls too, reading their Twitter postings

Funny though, always hear of women gamers wanting the title and now Some One has decided that title is now not for them and just to describe misogynistic racists. I've read that garbage and the other stuff last week, rather convenient there were so many at the same time. This one is amusing - http://pattheflip.tumblr.com/post/96390223113/why-im-not-a-gamer This bit especially So apparently I don't own the word, but some other people do.

Seeing that in a CNN headline would be pretty funny. Today is Monday. Calendar may say Tuesday but I know that it's just Monday in a fancy mask!

What's the slur they use for that , "biotruths" ? Hehe. Why is this ridiculous ? The relative fitness of, for example, myself has no bearing at all when discussing the relative fitness of a male and female athlete. Well, other than it just being an avenue for a cheap ad hominem from someone. I can't play football as well as Alex Morgan for example, but I can easily say she's not as good a footballer as Schweinsteiger.

Why not just say that then ? You lot always go on on how large the segment of gamers is that consist of non-white and non-male people. Pretty sure well off is a requirement to be a gamer, well either that or really misplaced priorities in life. SJW folk seem to have some fetish for labelling people, I suppose it makes it easy to be victimized and/or rail against people once they are in boxes of your making. ...I'm not sure what your point is? The term being used is ridiculous, expected though, but ridiculous. So just say white males, it's what you mean, no ?

Seasonal character almost to 70, wasted spare time playing that. My 68 DH does look pretty swank, though I am the last one of my clan to hit 70 in the season, bah!

So it shouldn't be discussed here at all then ?

Well what is a gamer to you ? Your side is on offense against that term. Maybe you stated it earlier. Heh and why is Quinn sacred such that her detractors can not be defended? There was a Forbes article that advised that women in gaming not be criticized ever, even if one feels it is warranted. Will loom it up once off mobile Bruce should lap that up.

Maybe sockpuppets is also a tactic in use by them, hmm. Conspiracy, nah. Certainly is a bit of groupthink about them, but that comes with that crowd anyway.

Meh, encouraging prudence and vigilance is not victim blaming.

You sound like a gamer, boy... I did like a video by Matt Lees (no idea why he is relevant, I am sure he is for something) which was theorizing that without women the games industry will stagnate and that if you just like playing games and not talking about them, you should **** off.

Not really, corporations change only with a gun to their head, either consumers do it or the state. Consumers probably don't care that much, which is a shame in a way.

She'd be less suitable for melee combat than an equally trained male though (well, at least in what is required of line infantry), I think Fighter's post had a "ceteris parabis" that was pretty obvious. So, what was the issue ?
