Re: Vent(?): Girls in WoW
I have a female Mage character. As many of you know, I like the Lore of Warcraft, and writing stories. So I created her to be the Jaina Proudmoore of my Horde toons. And it gives me a female character to use when i write my stories. I never really get any oddness from other players, usually because I only tend to play with a RL friend I have while leveling. I've finally got her to level 40, so I'm half way there!

Re: Vent(?): Girls in WoW
My very first character in WoW was male,and i am female.When i made this char i was just fooling around on my bfs computer,with absolutely no intention of playing him(hes now full T8.5).I also had no idea of how Wow functioned socially.To me it was just a game an "rpg" ,choosing a character at that time was like "ok,i want a magic user,and something evil looking" so another undead warlock was born. Most people were surprised when they found out i was a girl in real life,some guys would actually get an attitude with me"If i knew you were a chick,i could've been hitting on you this entire time "That was roughly 3 yrs ago. Now i have a few female alts,and surprise i get the exact same attitude.We have plenty of females on our server,and some of my guilds best players are women.I have actually had a few people refuse to believe i was female,"anyone can change their voice on vent".These days I just find this all amusing,but at the same time i have a hard time accepting that some people can really be so sexist when it comes to an online game.Also when blizzard first introduced character re-customization I did change my main undead male warlock to female.It only lasted 30 days as i didnt really feel it was the same character,and a few guildies commented on it too,and am much happier these days being the same old Undead male warlock. |

Re: Vent(?): Girls in WoW
I'm a female and my first and main character I made was always female. I deff always felt like Mandalai was an "extension of myself" so I gave her hair like mine and features like mine, and she is a human. I suppose I got used to this after playing The Sims - almost all of my Sims are based on people I know in real life. People usually assume I'm a guy, but once they hear me on vent, theres almost always a comment about my voice. Even my friends who know I'm a girl and have met me in real life tend to squeal with laughter - I guess people just aren't used to hearing a female voice very often! I sometimes play in my boyfriend's guild where I am the only girl, and most if not all of them "hit" on me, but they know who my boyfriend is and it's always just out of fun - not seriously. I play the whole "I have boobs so obviously that tier piece should go to me" game a lot.

Re: Vent(?): Girls in WoW
OK. Male with male orc-lock. I usually stay quiet on vent, due to the layout of my house (wakes the family up and wife aggro is the worst). Anyway, when I finally spoke one day, had a guildie ask who I was, because he thought I was a girl. Go figure. Must type too feminine. |
