Darkpriest Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Why? As someone said. What's the point of talking to know-it-all pseudointellectual geeks? The second point is - how hard are females invested into certain games.to talk about them? They have better.things like talking about a new cloths collection, shoes, gossiping about their friends etc...

The second point is - how hard are females invested into certain games.to talk about them? They have better.things like talking about a new cloths collection, shoes, gossiping about their friends etc... Its important in life to always try to get a different perspective on issues and for me a female perspective often adds balance Its not always right but its very relevant to having robust debate...and why do we see ourselves as " know-it-all pseudointellectual geeks" ...do you see yourself as that, I dont see myself as that ?

No I identify myself as a male but I align with many things that promote gender equality..many people have similar views to me Vals "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Blarghagh Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Best thread ever. pseudo- or pseud-pref. 1. False; deceptive; sham: pseudoscience.
Elerond Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 People that I would guess to be women actually talk about games here, but other conversations don't seem to interest said people that much. So maybe their shared interest are just those games and for other things they just go elsewhere. And said individuals also seem to disappear soon after they lose interest to particular game that brought them here in first place. Same is also true for most men that come here because of games. So I would say that we are just bad when it comes to integration of new people in our society .
Meshugger Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 No man has had sexual fantasies about how equal a woman is to him. I have. Tell me more. As for no women here....i can't believe i am hearing this from you guys. I can't, don't even, it's the current year! It's 2016 people! We are at a role-playing forum after all. Anyone can be a women if they so wish, you sexist, misogynistic bastards, the lot of you.

Hurlshort Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 At this point, I actually consider BruceVC to be an honorary female. A bat poop crazy one. No. Bruce doesn't even understand women, which is not the problem, since we all are pretty clueless. The problem is he thinks he does. You must have missed his material on strippers and overweight girls. 1
Longknife Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Does this forum even have women that post here? "The Courier was the worst of all of them. The worst by far. When he died the first time, he must have met the devil, and then killed him." Is your mom hot? It may explain why guys were following her ?
Blarghagh Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 We used to. But since half this board gets passive aggressive when the word "woman" is even mentioned these days I can see why they're not here anymore. 2
Amentep Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) "The hot chicks period was a weird one here though." iirc thread was removed ultimately because a female Obsidian developer complained? its 2016, heterosexuality is sexist after all Pretty sure the Hot Chicks thread was nuked each time because some posters couldn't resist posting naked / semi-nudes in the thread despite multiple warnings from the mods not to post nakes / semi-nudes in the thread. Edited March 28, 2016 by Amentep 1 I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
Raithe Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Well it was one of those odd threads that would bounce from "hey, hot girls" to discussions of different concepts of attraction and beauty depending on culture and location around the world. Sometimes it was joking, sometimes it got scarily serious, sometimes it got outright pervy, and a chunk of it was just running humour that was part and parcel of the "regulars" twisted psychology. I thought it was just cleaned out in part because some people pushed the limits, and Obsidian decided to tidy the boards somewhat right before a big release and they were expecting fresh people to swarm the boards (who might not understand the locals and the banter right off the bat).

Lychnidos Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) On the subject of the "hot women thread". I'm a member of a all-topic local forum, quite bigger than this one, with more than twenty times the number of active members. There is а subforum titled "Fashion and Beauty" there, and in this subforum there exist separate threads on the subject breast, ass, redheads, a general female beauty one, and who knows what else, featuring more explicit content than anything I saw in the aforementioned thread, barring full frontal. Now, per official statistics ~80% of the post in the particular subforum are made by woman(they also make a third of the whole user base), so what they do is create a thread called "Male Fashion Only" with the OP stating that the thread's purpose is "to help men keep up with current trends". But, what the OP and everyone else go on to post is pictures of male underwear models, and other scantly clothed men. And the world goes on, women seem to not notice the previously mentioned threads, barring the occasional lost fella asking where he can buy this or that men also do the same with the "Male Fashion Only" thread. This has been going on for more then ten years, the threads are of length that will make a moderator here have a stroke, male-female ratio remains the same. TL;DR Face it boys, you have little to no women here because of the purpose of this forum, not because of a ptsd induced by a particular thread. No matter what some loony hotheads claim, or nebulous statistics they come up with, the majority of women don't play games, and those few that do aren't inclined in discussing the minutia of them.

Volourn Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 "Personally I think its a little embarrassing that there no are NO active female members on this forum We dont have even 2-3 ? Its something we should be trying to understand and or change....people don't seem that concerned ?" Why do you feel like you should force women to post here? Women are grown adults. They will post where they damn well please. They don't someone who is depserate to be friend zoned trying to get them to post where they don't want to. I'm sure there are women who post here. They just don't want to admit it or they'll have SJW Nazis white knighting and tretaing them like little babies when they are grown adults who can take car eof themselves. bruce, you don't believe in equality. If you did, you would treat women like you would treat men. Like I do. I don't play PC games no matter the gender becuase I actually respect both men and women.

Amentep Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Remember when their used to be active female members on this forum? I wonder why they stopped coming around? Personally I think its a little embarrassing that there no are NO active female members on this forum We dont have even 2-3 ? Its something we should be trying to understand and or change....people don't seem that concerned ? Do we know there are none? I was under the impression there were some women posting on the POE forum that I've never seen here in WOT. (That's without getting into the whole self-identifying issue with anonymous message boards ) I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet?

All 2nd and 3rd wave 'feminists', SJWs and 'White Knights' are. Well as I have said on numerous occasions I don't really support " Internet SJ "much anymore and terms like " SJWs and 'White Knights " exist primarily on the Internet...I don't see them as that significant or meaningful when it comes to addressing real issues. These words are more divisive My SJ efforts are more based in RL issues and issues directly relevant to South Africa and the African continent "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Darkpriest Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Yet you are saying that we should accept increased rape rates? I've shown a couple of your posts to my feemale friend (although she probably has more balls than most men - motorcycling, kite surfing business woman) and she literally called that you must be some whiny p-sy and should get slapped in the face for the comment about accepting higher rape rates

This is already the reality, I'm not sure why you have an issue with the actual crime statistics?

Rosveen Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) Are you all talking about the whole forum or just Way Off-Topic? Because there are women posting in other sections.

You really cant believe that **** you are posting xD I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene"
