You're on a site primarily dedicated to the discussion of video games. There's bound to be a good number of white knights floating about.

Indeed...without naming the groups I can think of many.

ROFLCOPTER603

Oh, please do name the groups.

Gays and transexuals. I'm not afraid to say it.

I'm not afraid to say it either I just don't want to name all the groups and all that in general because I know for some reason or another I will get modded again. (Mostly because I won't leave it at just listing them but also just because.)

There's a 1% chance that "hero" might get laid. That's enough for most men...metallica_fan42

More like .00000001%. It is over the internet after all.

Change that to 0% because there are no women on the internet.

Not if they just simply learn to be a jerk to women like what the internet says.

I think that a fair number of guys on the Internet are overly defensive of women because they've never met one.

Next time 3 users are in argument and they're all male, I'm going to assume that one of them's gay.

Yes, and it's rather creepy. You wonder what one has to gain from such behavior.

Because the lack of female contact for some of the members of OT is so low. That when there is a female she becomes a goddess among them, therefore she needs protection(they think). OT is filled with people who put the ***** on the pedestal. They have no idea that that is the opposite of what women want in a man.MgamerBD
This and I'd imagine most women especially on here just want to be treated normally. I really don't pay that much attention to who's female and who's not. I know Suzy-Q-Kazoo and Chilidragon are women, that's about it.

Wow. You are a rarity on this forum. I remember posting on another thread about what women want and I was the only one that went on to say basically what you did. That women want a masculine man that is confident, assertive, stands up to her and doesn't let her walk all over them and I had 2 guys back me up and the rest basically told me I didn't know what I was talking about and that I was being overly macho, even though I said macho was bad and that macho is different than masculine. The rest talked about it being a good thing that men were chivalrous and exposing their feelings at every turn. This is just ridiculous. And then they wonder why girls don't want to be with them, but put them in the friend zone. By the way, you don't want to be in that zone, you will almost never, ever get out. For those of you that know Smallville, it's like the Phantom Zone. If a girl says she wants to be friends or is your friend and you never get anywhere, it's because of this. You put it up on a pedestal like some form of goddess and she can use you and walk all over you. No attraction, that's what that means. Standing up for a woman just because she's a woman is pedestaling and will NEVER create attraction for you with them. Don't believe me, keep doing it.

I get girls because of my looks and charming wit:P

Come on you guys. We are on a gaming site talking about White Knight behavior. It is because of games that made most gamers White Knights today! Remember Mario Bros? Various Final Fantasy games? They had the save the princess thing going. That's all some gamers know about the females. Defend our honor!

What about WhiteKnight's behavior? I know he's older, conservative, was in the military, and is sometimes long-winded.

I haven't seen it done with girls specifically, but I can't stand suck ups of any calibre or creed, personally. I tend to see it more when the user is well known, and all of his coat and hat holding buddies follow him into any discussion no matter how nonsensical his posts are; defending his e-reputation to the death.

Palantas is a funny man.

The joke's on me. When I first glanced at your post, I thought you were talking about him. :?

I don't talk about religion here much anymore. You're probably right about the firearms, though.

Nonsense. The best captain was the Marlboro Lady.

I made one on TDH when I frst joined.

They all said I need only walk into a bar and drop my pants, at that point I either found my mate or I'll never get one.
