Is it 2007 again

I think it's more that people haven't changed, and certain archetypes will always be around

Why do people think comments like this make them sound cool?

That's fair.

As far as I'm concerned, dudebros and women who want to be The Girl can go off and make their own guilds. I'd rather play with team players who I actually enjoy talking to.

in b4 "you just have internalized misogyny and hate femininity and think you're not like the other girls"

(Anonymous) 2018-07-28 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
well, yeah, I'm sure the "Special Girl" is like that. Maybe Anon also thinks like that, but the Special Girls think they are special and they aren't like the other girls.

this is reality lol. internalized misogyny is very very common.

I mean, the moment I did read this secret, I was like "omg ... you are not like the other girls, huh? Internalized misogyny, huh?" (because that's fucking common), but I also know that "Special Girls" (trademark) are fucking reality. One of my best friends acts like this. So yeah... My first reaction was also some kind of internalized misogyny, huh. (love you for that OP! I like to challenge my own views)

So, I really like this secret, it makes me think about internalized misogyny and dudebros.

tl;dr: this secret is unproblematic lol. You want to play the fucking game, and not fucking mind games where you need to tell other people they are valid and useful, just because they think they are special.

Legit, I have only met 1 girl like this in my gaming lifetime...

(Anonymous) 2018-07-27 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Serious question, are you new to online gaming? I have been playing for decades and both the male and female version of this kind of person exists in every single game I have played.

Guild Princesses suck ass. So do the male version* because they don't contribute anything and just think they are entitled to loot/help/whatever for existing. They use whatever means they have to get or steal what they want then go slink to the next guild or group to fuck over.

*The name for the male version tends to vary by game. My favorite has always been Broke Dick in reference that they can't do anything on their own.

(Anonymous) 2018-07-27 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah this type of person doesn't have a set gender. Though I agree with OP that it's easier to get everyone else in the guild to boot or demand more effort from the male version than the female version. I don't LIKE either version but in terms of ease of dealing with, more people will back you if you point out the guy is doing nothing and will give the girls more slack. IDK if that's due to sexism on everyone's parts or what.

Boot them all, I say :|

It's basically the game-version of those chicks who play dumb to make guys do shit for them, like changing their tires for free or other stuff with their cars, getting out of traffic tickets etc.
Honestly, they suck, but they wouldn't exist if it weren't for dumb idiots actually doing those things for them.

Agreed, though the most fun I had raiding was part of an all-female guild. The type of Mailbox Dancer you're describing never stayed more than a day or two.

(Anonymous) 2018-07-28 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
Never heard Mailbox Dancer before! What does it refer to?

I imagine these types exist but I have never come across any in-game ever. At least in WoW, but I'm also EU so I wonder if maybe those types aren't as common over here?

All the guild drama I've ever seen has been from guys.

This totally rubs me the wrong way. Why are all 'That Girl' girls useless and all dudebros know what they're doing? I have seen many varieties of both over the years, with That Girl being fucking useful and the dudebro being a complete dick and fucking everyone up.

While your gripe is mostly legitimate, I would advise you against dwelling on it overly much. Just from your various comments in this thread justifying your stance, I can kinda already see you slipping away from legitimacy and into borderline misogyny, which I’m sure isn’t what you want or intended. It sucks that people suck like that but you just gotta let them do their sucky selves, because expending mental energy on their suckiness just leads us down bad roads.

It's not the fact that they're useless that annoys me. I can carry useless people through dungeons, for the most part. It's the chicks that flirt and use extremely innuendo-laden language and sexual references all the time that annoy me. Like, they don't seem to know how to interact with dudes without it and it makes me extremely uncomfortable. Saying this makes me feel like a prude, but there it is.
