I met the best gaming buddy a guy could have on these forums about 5-6 years ago and we've played every game on the market since. Well time moves on like it does and now he has different priorities like living a healthy life etc etc.. but that's not what I'm looking for.
So if your this (description below) and want a serious gaming buddy, then let me know.
Outline: (Must have/be)
- Male age 17-23 (Not a gay thing, Females are just hard to get along with)
- Lots of free time, sad amounts even
- Usenet Access (Very Important)
- United States Location (Not because of foreigners or anything, just ping rates)
- Use Skype and not Ventrillo or other crappier things
- Valid Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 copy and a general love of the series.
Other: (Preferred but not required)
- Steam account
- Eastern United States Location (Same as me for better ping)
- Good gaming PC for future titles
- Not a fan of Anime
I am all of these things above, I have no real life to speak of and this is what I enjoy.
Also keep in mind that I'm used to long stretches, like playing Resident Evil 5 all the way through with only drink/rest room breaks. Not a deal breaker but I am serious about my gaming.

No they're not. I suggest you work on the way you relate to females instead of trying to find a replacement game buddy.

He's not looking for a friend, rather a "mate". But I agree with my fellow posters.
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

He didn't say it was impossible to get along with a female gamer, just that it's more difficult. 90% of them are attention whores, anyway. It just takes generally more effort to actually enjoy gaming.
anyways, Call of Duty sucks : D

Seriously? Have you ever played an online game with a girl?
15 out of the 16 people magically know their mic is working and proceed to small talk constantly. Then when the girl leaves the game so does about 12 of those guys because they have lost the one thing keeping their interest.
Pictured: Every online game with a female attendee
BTW being honest on a forum will get you flamed. Internet rule #1.

I came here first because I had such a good experience in these forums before, I still consider it my go-to forum. Most of the faces around here are alien to me though.

Lastly I wish to comment that having friends on games really shouldn't come by applying to be a friend, but more getting to know someone completely by chance, having a few good games with them and then becoming their mate. Applying for a friend feels so much like applying for a job... It's so serious, and friendships are hardly serious (especially e-friendships).
Oh. Wait. Sorry, I totally forgot how serious the internetz is. My bad everyone, MY BAD.
|
Nothing filters unwanted people like applying just that. I know what I'm looking for and I post it outright, I don't really care anything else about the person other than what is in the list.
I don't give a shit if you only speak German, just be ready to get your ass in the game.

The irony of people on Renegade Forums telling a dude to get a life and a girl shouldn't escape anyone.

Ah, you're serious, then. I actually do think this is a better method of finding a decent gaming buddy, since it really is fucking annoying to find decent, relaxed, and fun people. Some might be a little fun at first, but that facade quickly shatters the more you're with them and realize they're douchebags.
So, best of luck to ya.

And so long as you (And your fellow gamers) continue to see females like this, nothing will change. I still don't see enough of a problem for you to automatically exclude 51% of the population, and the attitude you're taking in this application is contributing to the problem you're describing. It's like someone spamming up RenForums with posts complaining about why this place sucks, when their posts would be the ones contributing to the suck.
Just something that jumped out at me, that's all.
|
It has nothing to do with me, I do nothing to treat female gamers different than anyone else (except excluding them from this like you mentioned). If one showed up in my games I wouldn't mind but the reaction of other people to her presence is inevitable, so I just prefer not to deal with that situation.

Wow: I get to split the topic because you guys can't:
A) Pass up any oppertunity to have a disagreement, of some extent, and
B) Read the rules. I'm going to lock this, and then split it, then warn people.
The debate it contains is pretty interesting, but, whilst sparked by the OP, is not the obvious purpose of the topic.
Sigh.
Edit - What's this? The useful and ontopic posts take up LESS THAN A PAGE. SERIOUSLY, RULES. READ THEM. FOLLOW THEM.
Continue...
