Hey. Remove my name. The only Discord I go on is the official one James set up for Tibb, and there's nothing wrong with it. Please don't associate me with riff-raff.

[Benjamin]

Arista was just asking a question. He wasn’t associating you with anything riffraff.

[Benjamin]

Honestly some people online are awful, and such cowards. They’d never have the courage to say most of those things in person. They are the most desperate of people too usually, unhappy with themselves so badly they need to take it out on others.

…this is more about women/females in gaming, rather than which site it was said on…it could have been equally said on somewhere such as Reddit for instance, which has a gaming community…I imagine there are lots of game (…and other topic…)…communities/rooms on Discord which would be very female unwelcoming…there would also be many that were friendly, I would imagine…I imagine also that a game itself might have a bearing…as in, a more aggressive fighting game not being very female friendly as opposed to some other games…I’m just speculating though..

She’s not a boomer. Do you even know what a boomer is?

And yes there are worse problems in the world than this, but it’s still a problem which needs discussing.

…for those who are female and gamers and like to be part of gaming communities to share news and experiences and discussions etc…then I would say that it’s a problem to not be welcomed to those communities…especially if it feels more a prejudice/exclusion type thing because of gender…

Of course.

apparently she is, because younger girls are very much allowed to play games

[Benjamin]

This is a nonsensical statement.

woman playing call of duty :umm2:


which females even play that hardcore war game, 18+ also with bloody content



there are many games out there, suitable for both men and women

- Life is Strange
- The Last of Us
- F1
- FIFA/EA FC
- Until Dawn
- Telltale Games


i am a man, and i myself find Call of Duty nothing for me

[arista]

Typical of Discord
to allow this

[Ammi]

…as was said in the report, it’s not something that is a Discord problem and in no way exclusive to Discord, the report is more about the gaming world…and it still seeming quite a male dominated world which is not always female friendly…

[Mystic Mock]

I personally have never used Discord myself.

But I have heard that you have to be very selective about what Discord servers to go on, because some can be way more toxic than others.

[Mystic Mock]

…as was said in the report, it’s not something that is a Discord problem and in no way exclusive to Discord, the report is more about the gaming world…and it still seeming quite a male dominated world which is not always female friendly…

Regardless of the report, I would say it reflects poorly on both.

[Livia]

Oh, a LOT of insulting, disgusting things have been said on discord.

Grow up, Nicky. Women can play any game they want.

This is completely true. I find it hilarious how people who have no understanding of discord and how it works always seem to slag it off. They are talking about ONE server out of millions and millions on discord. And yes, there will be a lot lot worse on there than that. But they have ones for sea fishing down the south east coast, they have a server for every football team, for every sport a thousand times over. For betting, for knitting, Dua Lupa "stans". It literally has ever server imaginable. You can create one, i can create one, it can be about anything.

Discord is nothing like an old school internet forum

[Beso]

How do they monitor servers for cp, or terrorism, or sights that fantasised about rape and stuff..

I'm aware about the massive hullabaloo about facebook or twitter and how people have spread mis information about recent topics..it was as though the world had ended with that..

But how do discord and our governments monitor these servers that could be for people with some disgusting or sinister similar interests

[Oliver_W]

People are idiots on the Internet - News at Eleven.

But joining a discord server for males only? Why? They don't want her in their boy-only treehouse. Find a less smelly one to play in.

Did she also take a photo of herself wearing upside glasses, holding a game controller, and pouting. Caption it "I'm such a geek lol"?

Why wouldn't they?...plenty of women join the Forces and go to war :shrug:

[Mystic Mock]

Grow up, Nicky. Women can play any game they want.

I personally recommend that no woman goes near a Game that I've heard about called RapeLay.

Or anyone for that matter, but definitely women shouldn't touch that Game for obvious reasons.

[Oliver_W]

It was mentioned on thr Sky News thkng

I'd say it's completely up to the individual woman.

[arista]

It does not
but since the Reporter tried the Voice version
she was shocked to be called a Slag.

The Men hate her
saying she is pedophile

Oh I personally wouldn't stop her.

I just don't believe that she's going to enjoy the content of that particular Game.:laugh:
