Thank you for summing up my point so nicely, Psychosis.
There are no women posting in the thread and complaining because most women don't come here. And they don't come here because of shit like that. The point is, this stupid bitch is the reason that females are so popular here. BECAUSE THERE ARE SO FEW. Because the environment created by these drooling idiots and these bubbleheaded walking titfucks is hostile towards them. Because every damn video game box has a chick with a big gun and bigger hooters. We get fucking TIRED of it.
Label me a psychofeminist all you want, I don't particularly care. Ask Vlasic and El Mariachi and Old Skul how long I've been around here, and how long I've been annoyed by this stupid, sexist shit. Ask Cheater and Logroller and Bounty and Ceiling Fan and Shag** how horribly uptight and overly moralistic I am. I'm just goddamn tired of fighting to get the men of this community to respect me and other women of the community as players, not amateur pinups, and then have some new chick walk into and undermine it as one of her first actions.

** Shag, I'm still sorry about killing your Goldschlager at NoVaLAN, and I'll have another for you if you come to this year's.
Um kay. Goldschlager makes you non goody-two-shoes? No.
(You needed to mention that why?)
You ever seen Duke Nukem? He is such a highly accurate representation of the male population of this world! Stop trying to use the Lara Croft argument, Duke is just as bad, and
I'm fucking sick of it! I think I'm going to start a movement that only 14 year old 125 lb computer nerds should be pictured on computer game boxes, because they realistically portray the males that play the game... enough.
The majority of women don't come here because the majority of women aren't into FPS games. Smaller percentage of women playing Tribes = smaller percentage of women in the forum.
All this fighting you are doing isn't gaining you a whole lot of respect, its making people think you may have some issues here.
Quoting that you know Cheater, Log Roller, etc... that's nice, good for you. I worked backstage at Woodstock 99, and met everyone. Validity to this discussion? Zero.
Stop trying to be a spokesperson. If you get other women to back you up a bit, perhaps then you may gain a little favor in this. As it stands now, its just you, bitching about how one girl ruined all your hard work. No, she didn't. People are judged one at a time, not in massive quantities. If someone judges female tribers on the actions of one, then they are an idiot.
