Chauvinist Guy: really you're letting girls on your ship?

me: uh...

CG: and really you're going to have them engi for you?!

me: why wouldn't i?

CG: because girls can't fix things!

me: wait is that a stereotype? I hadn't heard that one before

CG: how many girls do you know who can change a tire?!

me: how many girls do you know?

You gotta love the sales crowd. Its easy to forget that GOIO is a sad exception to the way online communities generally are.

I did overhear this great bit yesterday.

Guy makes a ridiculously sexist comment (can't remember what but the c word was used), and the whole lobby, which had been loud previously, just goes quiet. Someone finally broke the silence.

"We don't do that here."

"Oh, well thats actually quite a relief."

And the jerk turned out to be not the most horrible person after all.



Sometimes just the expectation of good behavior is enough to enforce it.

[Richard LeMoon]

Absolutely. Crowd mentality at its best... and worst. I have been in lobbies that were completely full, and some jerk started making comments against either race or sex, was told it was not acceptable, continued, and the entire lobby just picked up and left. And in the spirit of such things, a parting shot from a lady as we all left a 3v3 lobby:

"I hope you enjoy playing with yourself... I am sure you are used to it."

[Tanya Phenole]

I remember, that on previous sale in beginning of March, i was bulliued quite often, and I changed my name to Nicolas Phenole. Being a young boy is less judged than being a woman. Actually, it is a bit creepy how much people liked me as a young boy >.<

wasn't until a bit later that i dared to talk to people outside cake.

Sunday Community Skirmish #4 - R4ge vs MiCa on Northern Fjords. "Mighty Pew Pew" Pyra gets away from 1v2 in a quad metamidion match.

*ducks fly through the screen, right by the fleeing pyra*
Fourth Oracle:Birds are like "Kaw, you should get the hell out of here, kaw"... oh, those are ducks, so it's like "quack, quack, get out, quack"...
