Gender and playing ability have no correlation. I like to look up the number of raid completions a person has before inviting them to a group. Then I like to shoot them a hypothetical question such as how many Hunters should tether at the beginning of the Oryx fight--which should be all the hunters because there's no point in taking turns.

  • okay let's be real here would you rather have a half-decent guy play or a "gamer girl" that bites on the controller who dies constantly but everyone's okay with it because they have a chance at getting e-pussy

  • It depends how I am feeling that day. Sometimes playing with subpar players makes you a better player but sometimes you just don't feel like carrying a heavy backpack. I was kicked out of a clan in year 1 by some furry and I have over 300 raid completions total. So every single one of my raids is done purely by LFG because I don't really get along with Destiny players. I've seen bad male and female players but the male players seem to be uncouth. I kicked two males from a party the other day that were bragging about smoking crack and then I heard a lighter along with a rip, then after they wiped 2 times I booted them from my party. I'm not going to sit in a party as two unrefined gentleman abuse drugs and their drug use is causing raid wipes.

  • Oh yeah man I totally understand. I was in this scenario where it was me and a few friends and we had to get people off LFG. We found this group of three who told us that they'd been trying for like an hour and they couldn't do it, but we kept them for some reason. Turns out it was originally a group of two people who met a "gamer girl" and they wouldn't leave because they were such thirsty fukbois. She said she'd done the raid multiple times but after many pointless and stupid wipes and a check of her stats we knew she was lying and we just had to boot them. Now we make sure that whoever we invite is at least competent and can do basic raid jobs. I'm all for girl gamers, I just hate it so much when guys get thirsty for a girl they don't even know or can't even see and they just ruin things.

    I know this is anecdotal but you just notice it more when women are bad because there's so few of them around. You can usually tell when they're subpar because they think they're too attractive to learn the mechanics of a fight. You tell them little tricks and they refuse to take that advice. For example, when I am on my hunter in a hard raid, I will tether that middle room 3 times on totems. I tether upon entering, I kill that wizard, kill the stuff I tethered (BLACK HOLE), my super is then usually charged again, so I tether again, then when someone says "Switch" I tether and don't kill (I have to get back to my totem) but I let the others kill my tethered mobs. When I see a "gamer girl" play I see 1 tether in the timespan that I do 3.

  • True, I played with some guy that said he used Quiver at Warpriest and he had lowest damage.

  • How do you think I felt? Then he told me to calm down, saying it was all good when he was the lowest damage and it was his fault we wiped. I just left.
