Forums - General Discussion - Why ain't there many girls on vgchartz?

I still don't understand why some want to post their picture on an internet forum filled with guys. That's not good attention, that's creepy attention. Or at least... that's what I think.

lolita is going to be sad reading this. :(



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

I've seen people fake being a girl to become a moderator on a website.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

meh I've posted pictures of myself before. What a mistake. Creepy messages about whether I was "shaved", extremely detailed forum posts about masturbating to my picture, negative comments that were equally not appreciated. They sort of treat it like we post our pictures to be judged on whether we are masturbation worthy, not because we want them to know our face. That is a little sad.

But this is why that makes all the difference in the world whether you post a pic or not, men are extremely into visuals even if some may deny it.

lol the OMG-THERES-A-GIRL-ON-THE-INTERNET syndrome.

I sometimes wonder how many slightly nerdy (but fun) women put Male as their gender just to avoid this.

 

I wonder the same...

But you can find those by reading their posts and preferences

Yeah, on another forum I visit a girl posted a picture of herself and there ended up being a quote train that was a combination of 'You're pretty' and 'You guys are creepy'.

The scary thing was she must have only been about thirteen. So yeah, that was creepy.



I always thought VGchartz had a relatively high ratio of active female members compared to other internet sites, especially when it comes to video game sites. There are at least 3 or 4 that I can think of off the top of my head that are girls which I can tell simply by the non attention whorish quality of their posts.

I can guarantee you that if I had an avatar (which I don't) and it was of a scantily clad woman I'd get thousands of extra hits on my profile page. And that is one of the major reasons females don't hang around gaming forums much.
