Irrelevant... in what context?

I can handle being uninformed I never professed to being a gaming aficionado... But irrel?... Why not go the extra mile and throw a gurl bai in there?

Well... Irrelevant to gamers, game publishers, retailers and to regulators responsible for giving age ratings to games content / allowing them to go to market. So, I guess in this context... Irrelevant to anyone who actually matters?

That's not exclusive to video games, nor is it a problem that video games have created.

There's also a lot of taunting / goading / name calling that goes on over the headsets... That's where a lot of the frustration comes from . But it's literally the exact same crap that was going on in the playground when people were playing sports and other playground games. Except actual fights started then. But no one was getting up in arms about it.

Just when I think you couldn't get any higher on that soapbox... you surpass yourself.

Anyone can have an opinion on anything

Just because your arrogance prevents you from accepting that people who are not gamers can and do have opinions on games it does not follow that they are 'irrelevant' in any debate.
AsI stated previously I could trawl this forum and find 101 topics that you have not and could not have any experience in of of and yet you participate as is your right ... Why then am I not afforded the same courtesy?

You actually appear affronted that someone over 40 and female has the audacity to comment at all on the subject.
