I hate the loud pissy children on mics. I prefer not to deal with them but I don't remember anything specific in what they say.
Pretty much. Two very hostile communities are Killing Floor and Heroes of Newearth.Hipsy_Gypsy said:See, I think this is partially the reason that I don't tend to like playing online. If I am, I'm usually a total mouse, heh. For the same reason.

Eh, ignoring him may have been a good move on your part, but speaking as a male who has both been in positions of authority and dealt with perverts making unwanted advances on his female friends, that raid leader did the right thing. The creep wasn't going to stop until someone got onto him for it, and if he hadn't stopped, kicking him out of the guild would have been completely justified. Most men -- even the creeps, especially the creeps -- will respect[footnote]Or rather fear, in the biblical sense[/footnote] another man who can threaten him and back it up. Pardon the term, but once dominance has been established, the creep either backs off or faces the consequences. They almost always wind up backing off, though, because they really don't want to deal with the consequences, whether that's getting their ass kicked, or just getting it kicked out of a raiding guild.Azaradel said:Hmm... Waaay back when I was still raiding as a feral tank in WoW, we got a new recruit in our guild who was rather... odd. Once he got wind that I did, in fact, not have a penis, he started flirting with me. No big deal.
Then he started getting kinda weird... When I was levelling my shaman, he travelled across the Eastern Kingdoms, to the middle of Stranglethorne, to give me a hug, proceeding to complain about how weird it was that I had a male avatar instead of a female one. Yeah, bro, that's the only weird thing about this. Sure.
So he went back to awkwardly flirting with me (in both PMs and guild chat, for some odd reason), and this continued for a while until he went a bit overboard.
In the middle of a conversation about books, I suddenly got a PM somewhere along the lines of;
"I run my hand up your leg. How does this feel?"
I can totally see how my complete disinterest in his previous advances made him jump to the conclusion that I'd totally be into cybering with him.
Smooth.
In the end, one of our raid leaders told him to back the fuck off or he'd get kicked from the guild. Apparently, I was the only person with the good sense to just ignore him whenever he went into creepy mode. Huh.
Come to think of it, I had a lot of really strange conversations while still playing WoW...
And got several accusations of "girls can't tank - back in the kitchen, *****!" hahaha...
If I played online games more often, I'd pay cash money to hear those messages.Lilani said:As a female, I tend to get very...creepy messages. Well first it starts with friend requests. Anytime I go to a server I've never been to before and use my mic, I usually get at least one request. Then the messages start to arrive. I was once told if I was ever in the area of Southern Pennsylvania to send them a message. Yeah, sure thing pal. Also, I once mentioned my boyfriend in-game, and one person who I'm friends with (mostly because they are so depressed I'm scared to un-friend him) asked if he could kill my boyfriend.
But usually it's just the typical trolling. You know, "Do you have boobs?" "How big are they?" "Tits or gtfo" "Go make me a sandwich" "Wanna see my dick?" "How often do you wash your vagina?" "Get back in the kitchen." All so adorably pathetic it almost makes the servers more fun.
ignoring him was the best move but trust me if the raid leader hadn't told him off it would have got alot creepier. my sister used to play wow with me until she met "rick497" who i shit you not told her he wanted to milk her long and hard..(she played a tauren female) i immediately got on my lvl 85 NE hunter and spent the next 8 weeks hunting him with my guild mates i believe he raged quit after that(had people from Europe in our guild so 24 hours watch on his ass)Azaradel said:Hmm...
