Well...I *Thought* I was the only member since I invented it but apparently a clan registered it on GameBattles...IHC is my clan ( I Hate Clans ) lol...

lol, that's a good name for a clan! the first clan i was ever in was called vodka, and we were #2 right behind the clan i defected to, No Mercy. Vodka was more laid back and about just enjoying a game, while No Mercy was much more competitive and in it to win. Vodka recruited people we could all stand talking to for hours on end, while No Mercy accepted only the best. They recruited me for months before I finally defected.

yeah, i get hit on all the time. especially when i play call of duty 4.[since none of my friends play it or have it.] halo 3 not tall that much because i only play it when my friends are on and we do team play so you can only hear your team.

I am a pretty hardcore girl gamer. I used to get a lot of issues with the menfolks hitting on me, but since I joined my current guild a couple of years ago there's nothing beyond general flirtiness going on. This may have to do with the fact that most of the best players in the guild are female, and many of us hold leadership positions. Our membership ratio is about 60% female to 40% male.

OT: Missdirected, just loooove your avatar. 

In my case on 360...It seems the girls I run into randomly are in competition with other girls...Like I was playing with a clan for awhile who had a girl on their squad...I was a better player and the boys in the clan liked me more...She threw a fit and quit the clan even though I wasn't planning on joining theirs or anything...

I run into that a fair amount...There's only been a couple girls I've played with that are very nice and accepting...

You'd think we'd all stick together since we're so few and far between and considering all the crap we get....

Is this just me ?

misssBimbo addictT!

I mean, my 12-year-old sister plays with me, and she's gotten hit on by ppl over 30.
Why are gaming girls targets to such pigs?

Um, like EEEWWW!

I think I would just like totally DIE if someone that old were to try to hit on me - I mean in a serious "come on" kind of way - not just playful teasing or innocent flirting...

MB is kind of like an RP game...

Most of the guys on my friends list on my 360 are great people...I'm a friend w*o*e though...It's tough meeting people who are decent so when I do come across some that are I add 'em regardless...I'm not too fond of playing with new people unless they're friends of friends because of all the crap I get...Especially because I am a good player...

I play world of warcraft and even better-- i play horde. Aka-- i am outnumbered easily 30 guys per one girl if you're lucky XD A lot of guys play female characters so when people find out you're actually a girl its more so comical. Until they get perverted. Then i have my report button ready^^

but yeah the getting hit on is annoying. not as annoying as the "we should meet in real life". OR other chicks hitting on you just so they can amuse the guys. That one is just bizarre because it is very one sided XD

I get hit on all the time I play. After they find out I'm a girl that is. First they treat me like an idiot if I'm not super-good at some game. But after they find out that I'm really girl the attitude towards me is very different. It no longer matters how many mistakes I do or how stupid questions I ask, most will happily help. But I'm smart enough to benfit from it..

Oooh i've got myself addicted to my brother's starwars battlefront online multiplayer.
Never had that issue, but no one seems to use the chat box on there except me lol.

Why wouldn't they?
