Girl Tax?
I know the title may be inflammatory to some, so I'll start by saying I love the destiny community and usually have no issues.
Anytime I raid with a team that's over 50% strangers I always wind up getting kicked. Regardless of my K/d, light, dps or general wipe-causing--blam!-ups I'm always the one kicked.
Am I being paranoid? Or am I being penalized for bing a girl?
-
People are wonderful aren't they? /sarcasm It may be that they mistake you for a child. I reccomend trying to raid with friends more than randoms, or raiding as the fireteam leader.
-
My sister has the same issue. Personally, I just try to make friends with as many people as I can.

Modificato da amandajc808: 4/29/2016 1:05:58 PMCant say it's been an issue on Destiny generally for me, the odd idiot here amd there, but on Division matchmaking, I have lost count of the amount of times I have been booted off fireteams before the mission/dark zone has even started (nobody using mics). It's not down to armour or dz ranking as there are only a small portion of players similar or above, so go figure, maybe some guys would rather just play with guys..
-
Are the non-strangers your friends? Because if my friend got kicked I'd be the -blam!- outta that too. But as other people pointed out, barring some horrible personality flaw no one's ever told you about, they either think you're a squeaker or, to put it as nicely as possible, have little to no experience with females.

1 RispondiMaybe they think you're a kid? I personally have no problems with lady guardians (excpet for the fact that I can't speak to girls lol)

If you have a higher pitched voice you can be mistaken for a younger person

1 RispondiIt's because people are racist.

6 RisposteI'm a girl and I don't get kicked all. People think I'm a 10 year old squeaker because my voice is so high which gets in my nerves... Being called he everyday when I talk to random is fing irritating, I know my voice is kind of distorted because of the mic but I know I still sound like a girl.. For some reason there's no such thing as girls on destiny... But uh yeah I just lead my team from now on because I really hate playing with assholes, scrubs, etc. If you want to add me so we can raid or something my GT is Leostratos c:

Paranoid... They may think you're a squeaker though.

if you're on Ps4 hit me up and join the kushtacular clan!!:D

You're paranoid

Modificato da Shadowdragon: 4/29/2016 11:43:04 AMYou can make your own fireteam. Tired of getting booted? Become the leader so that doesn't happen. I really hate people who boot others just cause they're doing something the leader is against. As long as it works, no shit needs to be given.
-
To be fair your stats aren't the best (not saying mine are amazing btw), so that could be a part of it. Best solution? When you want to raid, make sure you're fireteam leader, because chances are you won't kick yourself.
-
That's very unusual, so something is clearly wrong. But without observing you in action or, better yet, a large data set showing the rates of girls getting kicked vs guys getting kicked, we can't really draw any conclusions about whether sexism is responsible.
-
I think you probably were discriminated, imo. I've been playing for 9 months and wasn't kicked out of anything unless it was a situation in the lobby where 7 people showed up for a six man raid. You were probably in a team with an jackass for a leader. I would post on LFG, make you're own team, and as leader - you're in charge of booting😆
-
I don't really know for sure if that's why or not. Do you have a lot of completions? People might judge you for that, or if your gear isn't up to their specs. It sounds mean but that's what people will do, they check your stats and everything to make sure your good. I would just switch up what LFG thing you use, possibly even use these forums. Just explain your predicament and people will most likely be willing to help you out. People can be massive jerks in this game so it wouldn't be surprising if they are secluding you because you are a girl.
-
Never had a problem myself, now in cod on the other hand...

2 RisposteProbably because your female and for some reason among some of the male population of gamers it's deemed wrong [spoiler]guys are dicks women are dicks everyone is a dick[/spoiler]
-
You're not being kicked for being female and putting that idea out there is as ignorant as the white knights that are in here justifying your excuse. Gender aside maybe you're just not that good, and I really don't mean that to be disrespectful just making an observation from the facts at hand.

Haha that's so weird that you get kicked for that I play with my friend adrianne quite a bit myself so... I find woman are way more chill at this than men too like they arnt hollering instructions at people or trying to force them to play the way they do but yeah I personally don't discriminate
