What??? I never insult anyone, well except Girlfriday, and that is a two way street. I am not the kind of people she is talking about!

I never played CS but I play Rainbow 6 and Quake 2. I host my own server and stated explicitly any sort of profanity will result in instant boot. That works very well. Sometimes I pick a woman character to play just for fun and get nasty comments...of course they get kicked out of my server.

<< Next time tell them that you are a transexual male hermaphrodite cross-dresser, and that you think they are cute >>

Sounds about like what I'd say, if I were you.


I get called a whore/bitch all the time to...mind you...my friends call me that all the time...not just in games...mind you, I *am* Kurt's whore...so I guess he has a right ;) Don't let it get on your nerves. They are ignorant little 12 year olds that think they run the world.

Or maybe they are hitting on you...(if you don't know where that came from see OuterSquares &quot;hot/cold girls suck&quot; thread for the public jerk theory)

Anyhow...don't let it bug you they are stupid little kids that have no life beyond their computers...so I wouldn't concern myself with what they say.

I think what bugs me is the rampant use of the words &quot;whore, bitch, raped, etc.&quot; during the game. I enjoy playing the game as much as anyone else, but those kind of words just turn me off, regardless of what the intention was. I know I've been guilty of using &quot;rape&quot;, but since that last thread where people found it offensive I've definitely stopped using it.

I enjoy playing with GF, myputer, and now Lily27 on Neo's. It always adds more excitement to the game and makes for fun conversation. Half the time I'm laughing so much that my aim is way off. Actually, my aim is pretty off in general hehe.

Just because you play during the day doesn't mean you're playing against men. You're playing against a bunch of 18-21 year old college kids with no lives. Men are at work most likely during these times.

I call people bitch or bastard in a good natured way on my regular servers, I think some people around here are just too sensitive.

Personlly, I don't feel intimidated or threatened at all. Actually, I feel rather turned on by girls who can play Counter-Strike well. ;) I dunno, i guess it's one of those weird fetishes poeple have....right? :)

Anyway, I'll be sure to stop in Neo's server sometime and I'll be on the look out for ya'. ;)

I am Q3 player but that goes with the territory. You have to realize you are playing a game where you kill to win. People hate to lose. You see it as a game, some people take it seriously. So that is why you get the insults when you get the best of them. What you do is start talking a little smack of your own. When you get the best of those that insult you, let them know about it. :) I purposely seek out and try to destroy those that go off like what you are saying. And most of the time I be bringing the pain. :)

To quote some annoying song I haven't heard for awhile, that I have no idea who sang it or the name of the song...

&quot;I a woman, I'm a mother, I'm a bitch, I'm a...&quot;


Hehehehe, sorry. :D

BTW...play the game...Hell, go ALONG with their jokes. They will get bored and leave you alone.

LOL, that time when I asked if you'd be offended if I called you a bi***....I really was just kidding. I find it kinda sexy that you can beat us men in CS, hell, if you were younger and not a lesbian (j/k ;)) I'd ask you to be my bit...errr, I mean, girl.

As one of the many male gamers here, I for one would like to whoop on a woman from time to time. I'm sure I've come across them already and have beaten them down already as I'm 100% positive I've had my ass handed to me already by a woman. I like playing against many people, so it doesn't bother me if you are female and kicking my butt. Skill is skill, my girl can beat me at tennis because she has skill -- I may be bigger, 80 pounds heavier, lift some weights, but her skill is 10X greather than mine.

I played at this LAN party, which was hosted by a couple at their apartment (16 people in a 1 bedroom apartment!). Our hostess was pretty darn good, but I got the best of her in a few maps (namely q2ctf and some q3test maps). She wasn't happy, but she did get me in the other maps.

If you seriously don't want to be bothered while playing, then just don't respond -- I ignore all the whiners about my playing all the time. I have changed my name to Amy once in a while to see what happens and there is flood of questions asking my gender and remarks made about it. I smile, ignore their words and proceed to open the can of whoop-ass! Take it all in stride and find some servers with admins that kick loud and unruly players.

I've got a question : Which server is this Neo's that people keep talking about? I've played CS, but one thing that does annoy me is the vast number of morons playing. If there are servers that are not like that, hook me up. ;)

I don't get upset by being called a b****. Heck I am one and proud of it. When it is done in a good natured way, I can dish it out as good as the next one. I am talking about the foaming at the mouth guys who just flip out when you kill them.

And Pretender, that is very sweet of you to say, I think...... ;)

I am [AT]Girl or Colleen on Neo's.

Men must be ignorant to counteract the ignorance of women, and vice versa, it's a vicious cycle.

Some of the fault for this lies with the game developers.

In Unreal Tournament, for example, the Bots are programmed to say &quot;Die Bitch&quot; when they kill a female character. I think this tells the kiddies its ok to make offensive comments.

Incorrect. They, girl or boy, will call YOU, girl or boy, a bitch.(Die Bitch!).

It is just a random &quot;battle taunt&quot;.

according to most cstrikers, I am a homo.

On a nicer note, they think my mom is hot and like to perform sexual acts on her.
