Shared on Sun, 09/28/2008 - 10:30The idiots come out. So, admist the fact that homegirl Coulow has now prestiged...AGAIN, yay level 2 on COD4 (and btw, am now a 6. Yee fucking haw), the idiots came out to play. I got friend requests from assholes, AND some douchebag called me a fucking lesbian. Not only in the game itself, BUT in a voice message too. Yes, complaint sent. The bastard also sent a voice message asking to be in our clan. What the fuck.
You know, it's tough enough being a player. I believe that there is a female gamer stereotype. I try to not raise my voice, I try not to make "girly" comments, I try everything my DAMNDEST to not stick out like a woman player, and I STILL get harassed about it.
Imagine this, your wife, girlfriend, daughter is playing a game and is being harrassed. Imagine that. Your little girl is, well, not doing too bad (I succeeded him in kills) and your little girl gets called a fucking dyke, go kill yourself, eat shit and die.
Would that not bother you?
Tough skin is needed in gaming. For all of us. We all talk shit. And I did tell my boyfriend duching about the event. He had just come home. He was upset. Duh. I decided to not play again over the weekend unless he was in the game with me.
I needed SOMEONE to atleast back me up and not laugh at the comments. It's not just comments. I get the full harrassment most of the time. VM, FR, Spamming.
So. Another day of gaming on silent.
Coulow. Out.
