Thats discrimination isn't it? :rolleyes: When I play an MMO game I usually mix it up depending on how the character looks in whatever game I'm playing. Like I don't really like looking at dwarf women in WoW. :rofl: The guys don't look as scary. :p This new ban is pretty stupid. I myself don't play this game but, good luck to those guys who do. :p
Doesn't rpg stand for role playing game? To play a different role? kinda losing sight of the idea of mmorpg, isnt it :P
Its disturbing when men play as girls. If you wanna be a girl that much, just get a gender change you freak.
Quite possibly the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. You get a great character idea in your head and you want to use it on the game but then BAM! You aren't allowed to because you're a guy and the character is female. What makes it worse is the rule only applies for males playing as females and not the other way around as well. How is that fair? Its not. I also fail to see how a man playing as a woman is disturbing. There are plenty of games guys play that aren't MMORPG's which feature the main playable character as a female. Some examples would be Tomb Raider, Perfect Dark, and Parasite Eve. You play that role of women in those games so why is it any different than here. There is no difference; thats why. Hopefully for the people who play this game as opposite gender characters won't have to put up with such a piece of crap rule for very long.
Personally, I find this whole concept hilarious.
holy shit im in trouble i use a cassandra off soul calibar. christy off tekken and ****in samus of metroid but those girls kick ass.
i wanna hold up goatse to the camera whenever they try and verify me. I'd be like, yeah thats a true girl ass right there.
but mmorpg was funny when u played as a girl lol :p
Seems like these people merely want to have pics of their female players. This won't last long, or bode well for the company. Considering most female gamers aren't too quick to plaster the net with their pics (why risk being hit on prepubescent male players?) I highly doubt any woman would follow through with this.
Not only is it stupid, but whats protects these women from the company's "Women character Enforcers"? Are they going to have women employee check out these webcams? Because if not, thats also asking for loads of trouble.
I have to agree with you on that one. It is a pretty stupid rule and will only hurt the company in the end. But I suppose I can see where the company is coming from. MMOs are alot more social than most every game that puts a player into a female role. Since socialization is a huge aspect of an MMO, having players that "play their sex" is important, in maintaining the continuity of socialization.Quote:

While I can understand why they made the rule, I sure as hell don't agree with it. People should be given the choice to play whoever they wish, especially so, if they are paying 15 bucks a month for it. I don't find it disturbing that a male plays as a female. In the same line of thought, it should be equally disturbing that a male human being should want to play as a male elf; but I have never seen anyone complain about that, so why should they complain about playing as the opposite sex?
