    39 KB Girl Gamers Anonymous 10/28/08(Tue)19:32 No.21997726  
    Hey /v/.

    I hate girl gamers, just as much as the rest of you, but I think there is a distinction between "GURL GAMER" and "female gamer." (see pic)

    My girlfriend (yes, yes, i know what you all are going to say. you won't believe me, but that's fine) is what I like to consider a female gamer. I've never heard her come off with superiority or condescension when talking to me about vidya games, it's just like I'm discussing it with any one of my friends.

    She's also very well versed in the vidya, both pc and consoles. Her library of played games isn't just HALO TRIPLE or Cookin' mama. She's played and appreciated many PC games (Fallout, Half life, Deus ex, Baldur's gate 2, etc.) as well as many console games (many many more then I ever have, I'll tell you that,) but, I digress.

    When we play games, and she beats me say, in Brawl or in Unreal Tournament, she never gives me that "OMG YOU JUST GOT KILLED BY A GIRL" shit.

    tl;dr, Difference between Female and GURL GAMER. Your thoughts, /v/?

    Also, sorry for the shitty drawing. I'm not much of an artist.

    i agree with you and your picture

    however it's tough finding people to play with who don't say LOL KILLED BY A GIRL even if you don't act like a pussy

    Ha.

    In all honesty, She's only played Halo one, and she hated it. We don't have an Xbox 360, too.

    I think I might have impressed my hate of Halo on her, however.

    The type of person that the second person in that image is portraying doesn't exist.

    Really. It doesn't. It's not there.

    I've only run into one GURL GAMER before. She always talked about how she rocks at Halo 2, even though I didn't have much trouble beating her. At least eh was a pretty cool guy.

    I would probably kill someone to date the second person in the picture.

    Wish me luck, guys.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and believe you anon. You seem very fortunate to have someone in your life who shares the same passion as you do.

    To be honest, I don't think I've ever actually encountered a so-called "Gurl Gamer", but if I do come across a female in the vidya, they don't really seem to put themselves in front of others just because of their gender. Most just want to play a good game like everyone else it seems, and I'm thankful I haven't come across a self-righteous Gurl Gamer yet.

    Don't apologize for the drawing either. It's better than what most can do anyway. Besides, the female gamer is actually pretty cute.

    >>21998008

    You're so rad, troll.

    My girlfriend isn't a fucking super-model, but that's fine. Just keep chasing that perfect 10 that won't piss on you to put out a fire.

    Agreed. I really don't get the big fucking deal /v/ makes out of any girl gamer, whether they're the shitty amongst the equal shitty Halo community or the second character in OP's pic. We can't have any threads made by woman, or any comics based on gamer girls, or even any mention of a fucking girlfriend without the thread derailing into virgin rage of CWC-proportions.

    My girlfriend right now just got done beating Devil May Cry 3 and is now playing a little bit of I Wannna Be the Guy while exchanging jokes with me about the Castlevania series and how Dracula's the most unlucky bastard in the world.

    Yeah, that's what I was getting at. A girl who just.. genuinely enjoys games, and doesn't do it do gain attention. There is a distinction, its just.. finding it is the issue. At least, it seems to be for /v/.

    Yeah, I'm not too fond of my pony-tail either, but I'm too lazy to cut my hair. Sorry if it offends you. You can change the hair as you'd like.

    More like you're too scared to get your haircut as you haven't had it cut in so long you don't know what to do.

    I was in the same boat, until I just thought "fuck it" and went and got it cut. I pissed off the barber a bit but I got there eventually.

    Well, personally, when I play games, I tend to be kinda emotionless, especially when it's engrossing enough. Maybe that's just me, but I do have fun regardless, I was just trying to convey something.

    >>21998267

    Yeah, it's a little hard to discuss this stuff on /v/, but, there are a good number of people on here who aren't trolls, and are open to discussion.

    I'm really not trying to come off as a braggart, but if that's what they think, that's cool I suppose. Doesn't bother me any, it's all in good fun. :P

    As long as people realize that their gender, sexual orientation, sexual preferences, religious stances, political stances, ethnicities, and such, don't have any relevance whatsoever to gaming and that they don't have to bring them up unless a situation asks for it, I don't mind them.

    You're actually right for the most part. I look pretty terrible with long hair, but I look worse with short hair. I'm just trying to pick the less of two evils.
