So, I just started playing on XBox 360 and I'm a level 27 (got lucky with a blue engram & it turned purple). A few days ago, I tried my hand at Crucible. Well, trying to make new friends, I had the "manually opt-in when solo" option for team chat on and then everyone else on the team also joined team chat because they were in a fireteam. Probably because I'm a girl. -_-; So I'm not the best PvPer. The heavy drops, enemies were coming but they were screaming at me to wait. I couldn't wait because three of the enemies had supers. So I took it and died right afterwards. They were like, "I hope you choke on a dick and die, you c*nt." Then, I started getting kill after kill. "Stop stealing the kills! I wish I could kick you from the game & in real life." I ended up on top of the leaderboards because the rest of my team was awful. But the worst one: "I hope you get ovarian cancer and are never able to have children so they don't turn out as ugly and awful you are."
I left the team channel and started to cry because I actually can't have kids. ):
Edit: I did not create this post for attention, I am not lying about it, I reported every single one of them to Microsoft. Oh, and another thing: to those of you who were sad to hear my story, thanks for your condolences. The rest of you who are just here calling me an attention whore, you can STFU because I just wanted to share my story and did not expect to get this many responses - good and bad. I learned my lesson. No more team chat for me.
Edit: Read the entire post because I edited it to [i]prove[/i] it isn't fake.
FINAL EDIT: I don't want empathy or sympathy and I am aware that guys get trash talked to them too. I just wanted to address the situation I was in. I needed to vent. I made a mistake by not muting my mic or just leaving the team chat, like everyone has so rudely suggested and calling me names because I failed to do it. I was not thinking due to the tears in my eyes and trying to keep my composure.
NerdGirl out!

Wow, just ignore those pieces of trash. Maybe not put your mic on in the future. Also, you get more of those dicks on xbox than ps4. And don't say you're not good at crucible because you're a girl. My finance owns at it, and other shooters.

1 ReplyThat's pretty mean and uncalled for. But at the same time, you can't say you didn't expect this from an online fps... Which is Destiny... On Xbox 360.... Still, you can find people to play with who aren't pricks, I would play with you but I'm on ps4. Good luck

20 RepliesI get told to: 1) eat a dick 2) suck a dick 3) suck a N*gg* dick 4) shove a dick in my ass 5) shove a pineapple up my ass 6) go fist my ass 7) go play in the mud tub 8) putt from the rough Etc. etc. I'm a dude and I've been dealing with this since the good ol' dial up connection matches on Duke Nukem. I'm sorry to hear about your problem, that sucks. But you are playing a game with a competitive multiplayer. It's part of the online experience and EVERYONE (not just ladies) gets trashed talked hard. You are looking for attention, you want empathy and sympathy. You claimed to be the best player of that team which means you're experienced which also means you know lots of teenagers play this game and that there is a mute option if you can't stand hearing bullshit. This "I'm a woman I'm a victim" garbage does real feminists an injustice. There is a more serious issue with racism then sexism with online multiplayer.

6 RepliesEdited by Terendol: 8/16/2015 9:26:27 PMUm, sorry, having trouble understanding...If you didn't post it for attention...why did you post it? That's the [i]only[/i] reason people post stuff like this in the forum. It serves no purpose but to incite the Desticles. Report to XBL, send an email to Bungie, that should be sufficient to handle the matter. [spoiler]they won't do anything about it[/spoiler] Again I will say to women, coming from someone who has played WoW and other MMOs with my wife for ten years now - if you can't handle the anonymous jackassery of men and women, DO NOT play online video games.

1 ReplyAnd this is why we need safe spaces for gamers of marginalized groups: Because gamers are evil Monsantos. :( /not that GamerGate didn't make that abundantly clear

im not trying to start a console war but the ps community is a bit more accepting and polite. i to suck at crucible but they understand.

6 RepliesI wish you had PS4 so you could add me and play. I have a cool fireteam that like to do raids and 3 are actually women. People forgot this is just a game, but I guess they do not have a normal life. I may be a NERD, but i am not a looser who likes to disrespect other gamers.

I really am sorry. That's horrible, but maybe mute them? Like what the hell?

Lies.

What the -blam!-. Why did this need to be put here.

Assholes will be assholes.

It's inevitable to encounter players who spew a lot of vulgarity behind the screen but that is the closest they can hurt you. Take advantage of the mute and reporting functions to improve your playing experience. Keep on truckin'.
-
Ignore morons and keep playing. You are obviously a better player continue to be a better person
-
So sorry to hear this. Male or female, no one should have to put up with this, or be made to feel the way you did, in a game supposedly played for fun. Hope you find a decent group to play with, as I have.
-
That sucks. But try not to let it get to you. They're just a bunch of 12 year olds who didn't get enough attention as a younger kid. Cheers.

People just like to be rude too anyone in games nowadays just cause some are better than them most of the insults come from under age kids who think they are superior but they are not i weep for future generations cause of this crap

I used to think these were attention-seeking posts, but recently I have run into people into real life that would have no trouble saying things like these. Come to think of it, you might have played with them.

3 RepliesThe internet brings out the worst in "people". They have complete anonymity, and zero consequences. Ignore it as you would ignore the wind. It will always be there, and there is nothing you can do about it but go along your way.

I am a prick but your story made me feel there are worse then me out there thats messed up

Your name is NerdGirl, if that is not the most blatant cry for attention, I don't know what is.
