Well, starting from the beginning of my time...
1 from Starcraft who is still playing. Shes now into WoW.
I knew about 5-6 that played Tribes (the FPS game) years ago. Some still play now from my understanding.
Met a couple while playing Anarchy Online....
Currently, aside from the one in WoW? Probley two outside of the forums and the game itself who I idlely chat to on and off. Both I've met ON the forums however...
Not sure if that sounds like the best answer, but it was a general question.

Never hurts to be respectful either. I love to kid around with women...even flirt(There is a correct way of doing that as well), but I never get vulger. I have noticed when we have women in our groups that we have never known before they stay focused and are willing to Lead or Follow. Depending on the quest/mission and what is required at that time. Swampgirl? So you are from Louisiana? I'll bet you have a wonderful speaking voice. Something about southern women when they speak they melt my soul. <---Harmless Flirt

A few years ago at the Game Developers Conference I watched a championship Quake player tool everyone SHE played. You got a free T-Shirt if you could beat her. A buddy of mine (big time FPS player) died 5 or 6 times.
The only guy that I saw get a t-shirt only received it because the girl quake player accidently fell in the lava and that counted as a kill.

I honestly can only think of one gamer chick that I new from highschool, maybe 2 besides my sister. I can't even talk to any.of my friends about games or rpg's because they would just get this look on their face- 
Although, if you do start talking about it because you did something neat, they just kinda sit there and say "okk..." Can be frustrating at times when you can't share a thing interest.
Exactly my thoughts on it.

I know what you mean, Rayawni. It's like my husband and I have two sets of friends: gamers and non-gamers. We are fortunate that we do have some gaming friends, but the others get that glazed-over look if you start talking about games too much.
Keesa, I was born and raised in South Louisiana. That's where "Swampgirl" comes from. I moved to NE Dallas about 7 years ago.
*heart all aflutter*
I've never been popular....

Oh and EnDinG, after that time out just remember to be on your best behavior with Rayawni
Rayawni
I don't think I was ever popular...well with girls at my school anyways. I always did a lot of things with guys and play sports and just goof off. All the girls would wory about was hair, boys...and who was sleeping with who...it's sad but true...
EnDinG
I'm always on my best behavior. =)
Most of the time...
Well, yea. I think...
Those type of girls who play games and still have a social life are always great to have around. =) Double the fun so to speak because you can relate on different subjects for general conversation. Makes for wonderful chats and inside jokes sometimes. And least we forget, those wonderful moonlite walks along the ocean or pier on some nice romantic night... Both of you laughing because someone brought up that a man with a fire weapon died because he was covered in snow. (Always found that amusing myself.)
Ok, maybe I'm never on good behavior. LoL, the cleanist post I've ever made.

My ex-wife was a gamer. And I met my new girlfriend playing counter-strike.
Hmm, I would say 40% of poeple I play GW/Counter-Strike/Battlefield/EQ with are woman. Mostly in my age group (25-35). And I know more woman players in GW than men. Woman tend to "group" better. Men just run in every direction trying to be uber.

I know when my b/f and i have been out to dinner he'll bring something random up from GW. Like, if you had Charm Animal, maybe you could get that dog...or something else really funny of that nature.
I'm always a nice, sweet little girl.

Most of the people on my friends list are females, well I believe they are females. They seem to work better in groups and are more patience. I am a girl myself and I like to work in groups. Most of the males I have notice like to stray from the group or lead the pack and have very little patience. I haven't been gaming very long or much. I started gaming when I was 20, now I just turned 21 My ex-boyfriend got me into gaming with The Sims. I can't stand shooter games (I get dizzy), strategy games (not interested), sport games (boring), simulation games (only The Sims), and online games (only played Guild Wars). My roommate got me hooked on GW

The key to having a truly financially successful game is finding one that the women gamers out there will play & actually BUY for themselves along with guys. It's nice to see more and more girls getting into games and more and more developers realizing they need to market to them as well. It's making good games even better.

I AM UBER DAMNIT!!! AND I MUST PROVE THIS BY AGGROING EVERYTHING!

Men don't just run inevery direction. I understand the need for teamwork.
1. follow the leader.
2. call targets (rangers prefered)
3. attack only calls
4. obey instructions
5. Rangers draw troops.
6. Don't go off alone.
I lay down the rule and when the group obeys them we win.
Men work well in teams, especially when somekind of command structure is in place.

I have to say that I like just about any type of game out there. The only sports games I will play are racing and hockey games. I love strat games, I love RPG's, I love first person like doom, duke nukem, half life, TFC, and I love GW. Sims I also love. Sadly, my Sims2 time has now been dedicated to GW.
maybe an eetsy bitsy one...

I have a female partner who is as into gaming as I am, but -- get this--her favorite is POKEMON. Yes, she has almost caught them all. A brilliant engineer, voted female engineer of the year, and she loves Pokemon. Go figure.

The only way for this thread to become even more pathetic is if people start advertising themselves for online partners.
