TO PASS THE TIME-
Who's everyone's main/favorite character?
Toon Link, Mr Game & Watch, Meta Knight and Sonic, predominantly.
For me it's Captain Falcon (even though he's massively nerfed from Melee, can't ever get enough of the joy brought by his forward air XD), Wolf, Meta Knight (although he's a little TOO good), Marth, Luigi, Toon Link, and R.O.B.

Recently got back into this game, I'll play if anyone's interested.

Also, just managed to score a Captain Falcon Sacred Combo on the Ice Climbers, was pretty lucky but awesome.

Oh wow, I just found this thread.
 
Shame on all of you. "gurl gamers" is the most boring thing, and half the people who bring it up are just using it to find a focal point for insecurity with the other sex.
 
Meh. better to complain about unicorns in the garden than ranting about the VAST FEMINIST CONSPIRACY.
That's pretty much my thoughts, along with the attention you get by talking about it.

Pretty pointless topic though.

Why do we care? It's pretty foolish to believe you can make much money off of views at the moments anyway for gaming stuff, since there are so many well established people (TotalBiscuit, Nerdcubed, Zero Punctuation, Pewdiepie) who will realistically get most of your audience. Talk about not focusing on the actual problem.
You clearly have no idea how the online popularity game works.

You go trash the popular people, and your channel will be trolled to hell.  You trash "girl gamers", and you get views/subs and get away with it.  Do you know his first video rant alone has 53,209 views ($175), and a total of 98739 views ($325.83)?  You call that not making much money for some stupid rant?  You are the only fool here.
That's not what I meant. Bashing Girl Gamers will probably make you more money because, as you say, it draws attention towards you. What I meant is that the supposed rationale for bashing girl-gamers is pretty foolish as they probably wouldn't get much money anyway with big name users flying around - as it stands, they'd make more money with these girl gamers around for the reason you provided, so peoples attempts to rationalise his ranting are pretty weak when he directly profits from ranting about these "girl gamers".

I believe he's angry because because they are calling themselves gamers when they only play COD. Basically all they do is:

1. Play COD.
2. Show cleavage.
3. Profit.

They don't love gaming like they make people believe, my sister plays more games and she isn't a gamer lol. It's like that one guy who acted disabled and played WoW (IIRC), he got a tonne of money out of that con.

Another point they were debating about was the whole name calling thing, if these girls want the freedom to show themselves in that light than guys have the freedom to call them certain names. The girl in the vid believes that women should have all the freedom and men shouldn't be allowed to call them certain names that actually fit what they are doing (using their body for money).

They are obviously stealing views from true female gamers who love games, have spent their whole lives gaming and have probably put a lot of money into what they do/love. I also don't buy into the double standard thing because guys would get called the same names if they went shirtless or even pantless on webcam, but that doesn't happen as much as girls showing cleavage.

So the problem is NOT girls gaming, it is NOT girls trying to look hot for views, it IS the fact that these girls are NOT gamers and show cleavage just for views/profit.

Girls have the freedom to wear whatever they want.
Guys have the freedom to call them whatever they want.

You can't take away these freedoms no matter what your views are, but calling yourself something you're not and making money from it is a con. They obviously target the gaming community because nerds don't get as much action so they know they're going to make the most profit from it.

Also don't say gamers can only play 1 game, we all know that's a lie and dictionary.com says a gamer plays gameS not a game.
WHY DO YOU CARE
This is practically petty. Fact is, if you make videos or are a games journalist with enough quality in your videos, you would be more successful than the average "girl-gamer".
Besides, people tend to watch gaming videos based on the actual games themselves anyway; if these "girl-gamers" only play CoD or other centre mainstream titles, surely all you'd have to do is appeal to a different niche of the viewing audience.

Lastly, I don't care and realistically there aren't many reasons why you should. Stuff like this, while it may have a genuine complaint, is inevitably just going to start a rather idiotic hate train, so it would be wise not to go over the top on this one.

Discussion / Re: Questions About RA2 Building
« on: June 29, 2013, 05:24:29 PM »

1. About 50 minutes or more in DSL, don't build in stock anymore
2. Faithless from Box Of Nightmares. I don't often go for particularly complex builds so it's probably comparatively easy next to most of the bots people have made.
3. Future Breed Machine. I dunno, it was versatile and effective, regardless of its defeat in the finals of RIW3.
