Just hit the mute button like it’s not hard. I’ve pressed the mute button a few times it’s really not a big deal. You hit mute then hit report. After a few people do that they get banned.
Would be nice to play online games that are not de-facto filtering out everyone who isn’t willing to tolerate being periodically subjected to verbal abuse, especially when it’s extreme forms of verbal abuse.
True snowflake stuff. You don’t live in a perfect fking utopia. Occasionally someone will make fun of you lmfao.
This doesn’t really address what I’m talking about. I can personally handle people saying mean things to me (though can’t say anyone in an online game ever threatened to rape me), but what I have a problem with is people I might like to interact with being driven out and the space becoming increasingly concentrated with people I don’t like very much.
I haven’t realized if people are being driven out of the game over someone trolling them. The monthly active players seems to stay consistent over this past few months. I don’t believe people you like to interact with are being driven out of the game.
Well I haven’t played in years, but I strongly suspect that exceptionally low ratio of female voices I referred to was not just because the game itself does not appeal to women.
The game has never had a female player base anyway. Not a single female esport player? Is it really impossible just don’t like the game? Only 10% of female are gamers anyway. And I don’t think that’s because theyve been victim to trolling. They probably just don’t like gaming anyways.
It is a commonly known issue that women avoid going on comms in games. For the simple fact that an incredible high percent of the time, doing so means being dog piled by the rest of the server. Sure plenty still do it anyway, but sometimes shockingly enough, some people want to play games to relax.
Anecdotally it feels like they’re more present in games than ever but if only a small percent participate in the hobby and that small percent constantly deals with this type of behaviour, do you think that’s going to encourage more to join?
People taking out their shitty days or personalities on others in gaming has been an issue overdue for addressing for a minute now.
I don’t know what you’re talking about. The dude said girls dont play dota 2 and claimed it’s because they get trolled or harassed or whatever. I said no, they just don’t like that game since there is not a single female esport player in that game. Val which you claim is so toxic has female esport players. You don’t even address anything I say you just make unsubstantiated claims even contradicting claims. You say female gamers won’t want to continue playing games if they encounter someone being mean to them but then you say it seems there are more girls than ever playing. So which one is it?
We already have ways to address someone being toxic to you. It’s called the mute and report button. What more do you want? An ai listening to every word you say banning you for even the slightest banter? People will become afraid to even say anything for fear of accidently slighting one of you snowflakes.
