[quote]It seems no matter what I post about , whether Crota, matchmaking or a sarcastic reply to a comment, that there is always some angry, violent jerk that calls me names and/or threatens me on forums. [/quote] Common. Even though I used to "flaunt" my "male" presence around the forums on trivial topics, I'd get a few hostiles who were convinced I was a female to aggravate my comments to no end. This is things like replying to a thread titled "What are you doing while stuck at work without Destiny?". Comments would get pretty MA and report-worthy, and endless replies if I let it (I would usually stop and ignore). I don't know why some people are like that, but to my surprise it is usually older males, not the youth.
EDIT: I must add too, this has only been a frequent occurrence/issue on bungie.net. No other gaming forum do I have this problem. Not really sure why that is. Not even LoL has displayed this level of aggressiveness and blatant gender-oriented personal attacks that have zero bearing on gameplay.
Finally, this should really be #Community or #Offtopic :/ srry...[b]and as far as "bitch"--that is a very mild term (slang) that can be used in a genderless manner. and even I use it often. [/b]That and hooker, 'cause brain-infused with True Blood.
