Dear male adolescent Giantbomb.com members.

I notice that a significant number of you think that it is a good idea to go on video game message boards and open up sad, pathetic threads about what you perceive is the mythical, magical creature of "girl". Clearly, you think, this is the place to do that. 


 

Seriously. You're embarrassing yourselves. Look, there are many awesome internet places that were made to help and support you in this strange world, like relationship health.  There are nice guys and gals eager to listen to your stories and views and help you out. 
 
Please. It's physically painful.

Most women love having things put into their assholes when they're asleep, even silly fun things like a live cricket. The way to a woman's heart is through her slumbering asshole.

T If they aren't malicious and harmful, then it's nothing...
They are malicious and harmful, and sexism is against the terms of service. Maybe you haven't been following the threads that much lately, check out "why does Giantbomb have no female reviewers", "What are women thinking?", the titty threads on Alpha Protocol and Red Dead Redemption, "do women watch porn",  "how do you prefer woman", or the one mocking a girl for writing a poem. There's a flood of this crap lately, and until it gets moderated, it's valid complaint. The point of my quote about it being a website focused primarily on video games is that it's obviously going to be terrible for relationship advice anyway, and all these threads do is incite garbage posting exploiting the moral grey area of gender relations from a largely male demographic. I haven't gone out of my way to post in every one of those threads what I thought, but they should not exist.
If GB has any female readership after today, I think it's an issue that needs to be addressed quickly.

Then no one talk about anything other than video games. 
 
Stop all the movie threads, general quote threads, shut down the off-topic section, get rid of every thread that mentions anything other than video games.  By all means, this is a website...about video games. 
 
T_T  This may be a website about video games, but this is a forum about more than just video games.
 
Is it okay that people act immature about shit?  No, but am I one to judge?  No.  If they aren't malicious and harmful, then it's nothing...and it should be treated as such.  If it's something that should be locked, then it'll be locked.  Otherwise, if people don't want any part of it, they can stay out of the fuck threads. 
 
It's a simple and logical flowchart to follow on that one.

@jakob187:  I see what you're saying, and I can respect that. However, for every thread where genuine help is offered there's going to be another offering one offensive generalisation after another. As an analogy, if they were topics about ethnicity or sexual preference I imagine there would be locking and moderation involved pretty damn quickly because those issues have been effectively brought to people's attention. Most people can see clearly that it's morally wrong to be offensive in regards to those topics. However, gender issues are much more difficult because we tend to live in societies that accept a certain background level of discrimination, so we just tune it out. But should we? That such posting hasn't been eradicated perhaps indicates a double-standard when we think about gender identity.
 
There are better sites for relationship advice, but I suppose such threads are ok. Threads expressly about women in general (like what are they thinking or whether they watch pron) or titillation are not cool. And let us all remember these important words: this is a website...about video games.

maybe not 100% on topic, but the spirit is the same I suppose, and It's always fun to spread the good XKCD word.

This post only serves to make it worse. I'm calling on all adolescent GB users to, uh, do something.
 
It's funny how you refer to them as if all of them are doing this. I highly doubt that.

@owl_of_minerva: Threads like this are what you would be talking about, I assume.  I can understand where you are coming from with that.  At the same time, does the fact that a vast majority of the internet can be immature as fuck on a regular basis mean that people can't ask honestly relationship advice?  I again point out that we are a COMMUNITY, and in turn, it means that we are inexplicably bound to one another in this virtual space.  If I were to post up a thread about "man, this girl fucked me over, blah blah blah"...yeah, I expect that a vast majority of people would be fuckwads and write dumb shit.  However, I also know that some people would offer genuine advice. 
 
Just because the internet is fucking retarded most of the time, that doesn't mean that we can't have some form of serious discussion amongst a few users.

I've noticed that Meowayne likes to make pointless topics to boast how cool he is. He likes to go on the Off-Topic board and demand that the community stop posting threads about girls because he doesn't like to see these topics. Clearly he thinks that people will actually do what he says because he's the coolest guy in his mom's basement. Seriously. You're embarrassing yourself. Look, there are many awesome internet places that show you how to become a man, like this wiki on How To Be A Man. There are tons of sites that will help you figure out how to become more of a man. Please. Go to these types of sites and learn, stop bitching and allow the Off-Topic board to be well.... Off-Topic.

It's just 13 year olds talking about stupid stuff that every does at that age. Let them talk about what they want if they want to. I'm not proud or interested that these dumb threads seem to always be around but I haven't read them, opened them or responded to them so it doesn't affect me in any way whatsoever. You don't have to be affected either. Let kids do what they wanna do.

I think it's shitty that we constantly talk about how we are a community, a group of like-minded folks...and yet people bitch about things like this, which is essentially saying "well, yeah, we're a gaming community, so talk about gaming and nothing else, and definitely don't talk about your personal life". 
 
Frankly, people can talk about relationships and girls all they fucking want, so long as they aren't being malicious about the shit or threatening someone's life, blah blah blah. 
 
Threads like this piss me off solely because you can prevent reading this shit BY NOT FUCKING CLICKING ON IT!!!  Don't bitch about specific threads existing when you don't have to go into them in the first place. 
 
The only reason I came into this thread was because I wanted to see the hilarity that would ensue from your statements, followed by throwing in my own two cents on how stupid this idea of yours really is.

It's still respectful, but nobody seems to talk about video games on here anymore. Apart from the odd overwritten blog piece.

Which is exactly why the threads are so great. They're like really good jokes about nerd stereotypes, only they're not jokes. They're the forum thread equivalents of so-bad-it's-hilarious B-movies.
