Oh, little boys want a date?
A real man waits for the perfect woman.

OT: Feel bad for you, and yes, I am male ._.
I don't understand the juveniles.
Of course, I chat with my friend in a Public chat and never see such things.
But yes, I see why you'd be upset, you have valid reasons.
Some people never learn in this world, do they?

GL,

Hey, thanks for the support everyone. The harassment has taken a drastic drop so far, but it's only been a little bit. (I started taking measures before this topic). Hopefully I can go back to just being myself.

Crenels comment about guys being a girl reminds me of How I Met Your Mother episode where they all go to a gay bar and Ted and Marshall learn how it feels to be hit on.

Personally, I'd rather have a online bromance anyways as that means you have a good friend you can enjoy the game with not just someone you want to talk to while you creep.

Why on earth is the word gay being censored here :D ? I'm kinda curious what else is being censored here, think I'm gonna try Carlins 7 Words now just for the sake of curiosity : **** Piss **** **** Cocksucker *******ucker Tits

Crenels comment about guys being a girl reminds me of How I Met Your Mother episode where they all go to a Censored bar and Ted and Marshall learn how it feels to be hit on.
To me it was more like the Big Bang episode where Howard humped the troll.

To say something on topic though: I think it is pretty sad if you hit on complete strangers in games like these, don't be to harsh with these guys, their lives are probably going to be pretty though ^^

Edit: Oh typed h a r d o n these guys, guess I should have seen that coming :D

I know exactly what you mean. Just seems to be very common occurrence on games with a userbase consisting of mostly male players. I had to resort to changing my character to male on another popular mmo. Astounding how much more respect you get. :D

I hope things get better for you.

The GM team will always listen to complaints of sexual harassment, so dont hesitate to drop a public (community watch) or private (PM's) line (with screen shot evidence please) , and we'll take care of it when we get the chance. No one likes dealing with hormonal just hitting puberty teenage males.

Theres no reason to have to put up with them. First act is to /ignore as soon as you feel uncomfortable, and then if it keeps going come to me or any of the other GM's. Not only do we care about game safety(botters etc), we care about player safety as well.

Under the premise of this forum, the word "gay" would probably only be used inappropriately as an insult. It is really sad though.

Unfortunately, being different in a video game is always cause for negative attention (amplified by anonymity, as someone else said earlier). Three cheers to the ignore button, and if I see anyone hitting on someone unwarranted, I'll help to tell them off. You girls deserve to play in peace just as much as anyone.

And three cheers to "The Creep" as well, love that song. :p

I hate to get on my soapbox here, but it's not just anonymity/pubescent hormonalness that's inducing this tidal wave of pervy guys. The huge amount of p o r n (had to space it to avoid the overly-vigilant censor) that's now so freely available, especially on the internet, is objectifying women like never before. If any guys reading this feel bad for Zeb, instead of trying to protect or defend her (see seems to have that very much covered, anyways), you may want to stop fueling an industry that trots women out like cattle to be devoured. You'd be doing far more good.

the fact that this post is even neccesary is quite sad honestly, i get that we have a younger community, but still its sad, you see girls everyday, why freak out when you find one who happens to like gaming? Anyways, this is part of the reason i am not a fan of IRL pic threads, just gives guys the excuse to hit on whatever girl gets the courage to post pics.

But yeah don't hesitate to report it if it happens again, seems like rest of the staff are 100% behind you on this.

That is scarily accurate, in a parady-ish way.

if you really get guys talking like that, those guys make the rest of us look absolutely horrible lol, which judging by this thread, basically gives all guys in this game a bad rep, which is quite unfortunate cause ive met some guys that aren't complete pigs here.

That was written by and large out of personal experience, using one of the multiple pervert archetypes I've encountered online.

That one is the "I can't spell very well, but I promise that I have a really big *****" archetype. Just wait until you encounter the "hyper bro" types or the "I'm going to be super creepy/'intellectual'/insistent and pretend that you like it even though you clearly don't" types.

Edit:
Or the "I'm not breaking rules, I'm innocent, look at how big my ego crotch stuffing talents are if you don't believe me" type.

Sad thing is, I've seen these archetypes in high school, where everybody seems to have less maturity rather than more sadly.

I know what it feels like...
Those people just have absolutely no life and are seeking refuge online.
It really sucks to know that there are some people in this community that behave that way.
Hope you feel better soon Zebby. :)
And to those people who've never seen girls before, go outside. It's good for you.
P.s. Gifford said, "90-95% of guys are pathetic or pigs or both." :p
