Years of radiation from my monitor has caused my genitals to wither away...but I used to be male.


Btw, for those of you who don\'t know me, I was on these boards a few months ago before other stuff came up, but I am back now...so you can all go on...not...caring. :P

The average man is living proof that women can take a joke.

well in the game there are quite some ...so i see two options ...either the girls don\'t like the forum  ...or there is quite a bunch of guys who are in favour of playing a girl (...i hope and think it\'s the first option)

Ah, what foolishness?just an FYI try the hydra plaza for this, and why would women worth knowing answer this?

Second, many guys would rather play girls in a game because it is nicer to watch the backside of a female for hours and hours then to see the backside of a male?but that is just me, I could be wrong.

Anyway chalk it up to BB silliness. As for why you can?t post polls?that?s funny, I can???

It should take you about 2.2 seconds to figure it out?

If you still don?t know why, well it has nothing to do with the number of posts, but with who you are for the team.

Same with why I have a stupid pic under my name.

NO, you are totally right. I ALWAYS play female roles in other games at home if possible (UT2003 for example - I play with behindview), I only chose a male in this game, as it is online, and people expect the player to be the same gender, as his character. Anyway - it is hard to roleplay the other gender than what you are.

I think THAT is the problem, when someone likes to watch the behind of a male (3rd person view) for hours - I definitely better like to watch a female - but I could be wrong too ;)

Male here, and I totally agree with what\'s been said above, I prefer watching the back of a female character.

I have a female character in PS now, since it\'s only a test, and I really don\'t now if I\'ll choose male or female for the real game. I guess it will depend on how many females there already or in the game, if 50% of players chose female I\'ll choose male, and if there are only a few females I\'ll choose female.

About the role playing, it is indeed harder to play the opposite sex, and I\'m not a really good role player myself, but I think it\'s also part of the fun : it\'s more interesting to play a role as different as possible from what you are IRL.

Hope it\'s the first, but I think it\'s the second  ;-) But I\'m also sure there are a few girls playing male characters.
sig removed, it was kinda big ^^

yea, i agree that as a male it\'s nicer to look at a back of a female, but in RP, i rather play a male - the characters i play are usually as i would really be if i were \"trapped\" in a world that i play them in :) - pretty close to my own persona

Well, I\'d heard that there were some issues with uploading characters so I decided to do what I do with most games: create a test character.

So I looked through the various avatars and carefully created a character with nice balanced stats... and sure enough it failed to upload properly. I thought righty ho, don\'t wanna lock up my name and have to send an email before I even get to play the game so I created another \"test\" character by the \"hit all and any buttons\" method... hit next, next next and it uploaded and connected. Oops, wrong gender. Oh well, it\'s a test character...

Walked around, talked to a few people, found crystals. Thought \"cool!\". Then I got kinda attached to my character, being that I\'d made a couple game-mates and had an inventory with stuff in it. So I thought what the hey, I\'ll keep it.

Short answer: I\'m male but I have an avatar of a different name that is female. Since it\'s still in pre-alpha and I couldn\'t select the avatar I really wanted I don\'t see any reason why it is a problem. In later versions I\'ll select a male avatar, not that it matters a great deal, after all role playing is all about pretending you are something you are not :)
