This right here is an ignorant comment from one of those immature children. Just because you feel one way about it doesn't mean that people take things differently. Why don't you STFU and carry on, instead of trolling the forums looking for a way to derail a legitimate issue. Yes, yes, we all know about muting people, but that doesn't change the fact that what these individuals did was wrong. Words might not hurt you, you might have a thick skin, that's great. Not everyone has a level of self confidence that the internet has given you. |

Yet...when they get anything negative said about them, they're the first to cry for something to be done.
There are ways to lessen these idiot's actions, but they never go away. Why? because there are other idiotic people that defend and encourage them.
I have yet to see (or even hear about) a guy harassed in-game by a woman because he is a guy...but I have seen plenty of women (and have been myself) harassed by "men" only because they are female.
I am all for people getting kicked from a game for using racial, sexual, or any other form remark that insults someone who can't help themselves for who or what they are. The whole sexual harassment thing has been ignored way too long in the gaming industry. I know quite a few women who play games that could wipe the floor with dudes in FPS. They have garnered respect from some, but on more than one occasion you get some douchebag who thinks its his job to say whatever he can to try and hurt them. All because he can't beat them in the game.... This also goes for the racial slurs that I see people put up as their character name. Honestly, it is getting to the point where I think CCP should not allow those names to even be typed in....revert it back to kitten.... |
