I suppose I can understand they're trying to say... "don't be an asshole" but come on lol

The guys and girls for that matter - that are assholes, don't give a damn about their ridiculous video. In fact, they just made it worse because they're making a big deal out of it.

Seriously - assholes respond to being treated like assholes. Not some whiny plea from a youtube video.

And as a side note... I am kinda interested in the size of your sword

Who goes around talking about their pork swords on their headsets anyway, I can understand it on PlayStation Home but on a game?

Strange people.

Exactly. Even their video description is stupid. "And when someone breaks that code, CALL THEM OUT. Don't just let it ride."? No! Don't feed the trolls you idiots. That's just going to make it worse for everyone. The people making kitchen jokes or whatever are going to make more kitchen jokes now that they know it's bothering you. Then you're going to get the "white knights" who think sticking up for a GUUUURL GAMUR is going to get them laid (spoilers: there's a 99.9% chance that it isn't). And of course, you have the GUUUURL GAMURZ being GUUUURL GAMURZ in the first place. All of them are going to be bickering and fighting, nobody is going to be respectful of one another. And worst of all, all the regular people who just want to play the damn game hate ALL of them and just wish they'd all shut the fuck up and play!

So no. No calling them out. Call a vote to kick if the option exists in the game. Mute them. Remember their ID for later to report them to the respective online service provider if they were particularly nasty about it. And then kick their ass in the game. But don't feed the fucking trolls!

P.S.

You know, upon seeing this thread, I remember this one Youtube video...

Anyways, to the point, I don't care if you're a guy/girl, black/white, a 10 year old, or a 75 year old, whatever religion you belong to, we are all gamers in my book and that's final. However, continue to whine that you are a girl gamer, and that you should have special treatment, you'll find your way into my special block list.

Thoughts?
Well I gotta say everyone is a hater, whenever someone expresses themselves, they are judged. People shoud just shut up if they're gonna talk shit. Instead of being supported they're being hated. I'm sorry and I believe female gamers have a point.

I don't have a problem with female gamers. In fact, I don't have a problem with any gamer as long as they don't act like a tool.

They don't really have much of a point when they go out of their way to draw attention to the fact that their girls (sexy ones, at that) by calling their site "Sexy Nerd Girl" and then complain when people give them that kind of attention. Isn't that the kind of attention you wanted by picking that name? Instead of being some people who enjoy video games who also happen to be girls, they're advertising their gender and looking for attention. If they want to be taken seriously for their game playing skills, focus on that instead of "HEY LOOK I HAVE TITS AND A VAG PAY ATTENTION TO MEEEE!!"

There are always dickheads, yeah, but if they just had a normal site name and a normal channel name and made videos focusing on games instead of their genders, there would be a lot less comments about going back to the kitchen or whatever on that video.

EDIT: You know who they remind me of? Cartman. They think they're awesome and "kewl" and expect everyone else to think that about them too. Then they get the attention they so desperately crave, but it's not what they wanted because everyone doesn't actually think they're awesome and "kewl" at all, so they have to run home and play with Clydefrog to convince themselves that they're so awesome and "kewl" and everyone else is jealous.

http://www.southparkstudios.com/clip...rics-tea-party <-- That's GUUUUURL GAMURZ. And most of the people watching such a disgraceful display are Kyle, thinking "Wow, this is sad, let's go make fun of them." And hence, comments about sammiches and kitchens.

I understand what they're saying but making a video is not going to solve it. Just Ignore/mute/report/block the douche.

I got no problem with girl gamers, I think they actually making it worse on themselves doing these kinda things. I also understand the hassle they get from male gamers as I speak and game with the girls on my friend list but they handle it and shrug it off. I'm pretty sure male gamers get much abuse and other stuff just like the girls, but in different ways/manner.
