girl assasins and girls in battle.

were they nice to u or did they think they were superior. i know with my clan i try to be as fair as possible.

please tell me wat u think?
No disrespect but I hate female socom players. Now, I know a few female socom players that are absolutely wonderful, but the majority are not. It isn't a measure of talent or skill yet attitude. Most female gamers make the stereotypical attitude female gamers have come alive. Names like including Sexy, Horny, Hot, Girl, Chick, Lady, or other names that give away players as girls right away are terrible. Just pick a regular gamertag and chill. If you want to be seen as regular player don't enter a room with a name like Sexy*Chick or Horny4you. I have seen a girl with a name so vulgar it would be wrong to mention on this site. (But being me and all I will say it anyway: "Wet.Vagina")

These names usually indicate the player wants to be seen as a P.O.A. to everyone in the room. The attention, although they make it out to be insulted and such, gives them a rush. This is why I hate female gamers. They complain about being harrassed yet the way they act and the name alone usually leads to this behavior. Think about real life. Girls dress in 4 inch long skirts and a tube top showing their stomaches yet get pissed when guys hit on them and start grab-assing.

There is no reason that this kind of behavior needs to be done by all female gamers. This behavior is not performed by ALL female gamers but a majority to make it a stereotype.

I am sure PMS is a great clan with great people, but even looking at some of the names on your roster it is evident that this stereotype lives on. I am sorry and mean no disrespect as previously stated. This is just my opinion on the situation. So sorry if I hurt anyone in the typing of this post.
so we put a female referrance in our name so that it will be known to we are girls. lord know that i wont call my self "Rafterman or cpt. smith or something like that" we like it to be known that we are females playing a game that is thought of as a MALE GAME. and as for offensive names sure there are girls who name themselves sexy or horny but there are MANY males with similar nanes like that. ive seen more offensive names by male player than female. its everyonce in a while that i see a girl with a sexy name or a horny name. trust me i should now. pms hasabout 3 rosters of females and here are some of the names on my roster:

storm

her again

army princess

problemo

murder ma

kara'melicious

if any of these names offend u by all means post.

I know a couple of girls ingame that can actually take out about 50% of the community in a fair fight. The only thing I hate is the ingame sexual harrassment they deal with.

You my friend, do not play alot of SOCOM II do you? There are hundreds of ladies that play this game and are good.

On topic, I like the fact that female games to indeed play this game.

Although, as c0mmand3r said. I have indeed seen girls with names as these. You tell us guys you want to be treated fairly? I have seen this many times by atleast 50 ladies. Taunt="HAHAHA, you just got killed by a girl". Now the guys that have played with ladies on SOCOM, how many times have you seen this taunt?

honestly, between all fo the girl gamers iv eplayed with its pretty random. ive seen children playing with their dads, wives playing with husbands, girlfriends playing with boyfriends, etc. the girl that plays for herself is kinda random, shes either a normal girl that happens to enjoy a videogame or a complete geek liek half of you are, who just sits there all day and plays socom. the girls ive played with personally either just played with their boyfriends or just wanted to see what the hype was about.
