MMO Bans Men Playing As Women

jkcity writes "In a bizarre move Aurora Technology the owners of the King of the World MMORPG has taken the unusual step of banning men who play women characters but the ban itself does not stretch to women playing men. If you want to play as a woman now in game you have to prove you are a women via web cam. This is something that people ask for in many mmorpgs I myself have seen people say people who play women in EVE online as being some kind of degenerate but how long can a policy of verification by web cam last since its so easy to get around it doesn't seem to solve much and is an insult to many."

Mod Parent up, its funny!

Of course I'd expect something like this coming from the Chinese. Simply means that most non-Chinese will not be playing this game and maybe even some Chinese will pass on it too.

Everyone knows that 99% of female players in any game are just sneaky little greedy losers who like to find some little 14 year old and charm him into giving her all kinds of free stuff. I've seen it in 3 different games I've played. But it's kinda stupid cuz the actual females playing as females do that too.

Where's the escapism? Why would they waste their time doing that in a game when they do it every day in real life?

Any straight man who enjoys playing acting a woman for X hours a day is not straight. Therefore, no straight man plays MMORPGS.
