Gender Inequality In Everquest
daimou writes "According to a study done at California State University, women avatars sell for 10% less than men. Also look how rich Everquest would be if it were a real country. The New Scientist is carrying the full report." Update: 06/26 14:15 GMT by S : This New Scientist article adds commentary/summary on the original paper the author, Edward Castronova, sent us info about a couple of days ago.
Lower skilled female ... notably mirrors differences in ... the real-world, says Castronova.
Well that's the whole argument these Liberals are trying to make. Even though women are usually less skilled, they should get paid the same thing for the same job, even if they are really bad at it.
All the whiners never thought to consider that women may just be less suited for certain jobs, and therefore not as good at them. I sure as hell wouldn't hire a man to do my interior decorating (unless he was gay). It cuts both ways.
I've had enough abrasive sigs. Kittens are cute and fuzzy.
games.slashdot.org... the trashbin!

Hmmm lets see you have a Male player..
who plays a Female Character..
MP+FC= FAG
at least that is the mentality of alot of players I have met in Everquest,Dark Age, Shadowbane.
Of course there is alot of exceptions to this..

Role playing as a broad makes you gay. Guys that hit on broads in online games are pathetic losers who can't get poon but you are a faggot that likes to get hit on by guys. So, seriously, I am trying to insult you for being such a faggot but you're the one that has to live with yourself. Consider becoming a full-time homo because it's crystal clear that you have leanings. You might enjoy it better.
Oh, and clearly, you are a taker - not a giver. You probably have a small penis.
Now, to deal with your drivel - I didn't heavily insult you. I called you a faggot. That may be a slight insult as it is a derogatory name for gay people but I honestly believe that you are a homosexual. Even if you are having relationships with women, inside you are a homo.
As for your question, I don't know why you think I like men or why you assume that I am male. I see that you like to role play as a woman and get hit on by men - that leads me to conclude that you may be gay. It's quite a natural conclusion. Do you tell your dad that you like to pretend to be a woman sometimes? Tell me, if a man dresses up as a woman, do you think he may have some issues regarding wanting to have sex with men? You see, I offer a reason for calling you gay. You call me gay because you're too fucking stupid to think of anything clever to reply with. Nice fucking job, you fag.
