[QUOTE="Mrbunny, post: 2170273, member: 17548"] Nifelhein, i think the problem with gaming and girls is that most people (really here i mean guys) will have started playing in there teen years. Well all remember how much FUN those years will have been...lets say that telling a teenage girl you like gaming when your that age is right up there with telling her the real reason you watched bay watch. I just think it sort of carry's on, i have had girls at my table before and i guess it sort of went badly...She was a very good friend to me and one or two of the other guys we played with. We were all cool with her play with us and there was no end of help for her when she was asking anything about the game and what she could and couldn't do, hell me and my friends have been playing 3rd since it came out and we still get rules wrong every week. Were things went badly is with our laid back style we have a lot of joking and well piss taking...I guess its the teenage boy in us and that we have all been playing together for years. At some point something was said by her and she got the micky taken out of her, nothing that doesn't go on at our table every single week and i guess its what just comes with us playing together for so long. Really its all done in the best of fun and no one means anything by it but all of a sudden she started crying! I had to stop the game and take her to one side and have a chat with her about what was wrong and explain that there was nothing meant by whatever got said. This did make me think about how different our game would become with her playing. She left for a China a few weeks later so it wasn't that much of a long term problem, it did change the game why she was there for those weeks after that. The guys now would be much more careful with what they said but that almost took some of the fun out of it. [/QUOTE]
