Today while gaming online on halo with my girlfriend we got matched with two people who were "jerks", they started t-bagging my g/f and ganging up on her even though they were all on the same team....tbh my g/f has got used to this kinda thing online but then things got worse....

After the match they sent me and my g/f very bad meassages... some really nasty stuff... she was so upset by what they said shes now desided not to game online anymore.... I'm a huge gamer and so is she but because of evil nasty people like who we bumped into today its ruined it for my g/f because she now thinks everyone is a jerk....i think this is such a shame as its people like that, that stop girls from gaming.....

People who go online and then ask girls "do you like sex" or i wont to....(you can imagin the rest...) these kinda people need to be banned of something....

Do you guys have any storys like this or any thoughts on this subject because i'd love to hear them

Not playing a game you enjoy becasue of people who abuse another player isn't the solution. People (not only girls) go through this everyday on Xbox live and the only thing you can really do is file a complaint and give them bad rep.

Sorry about your girlfriend, hopefully she gets back into it all again.

Just don't tell them that she's a girl / don't use gamechat. Then they probably won't be as nasty.

Both my wife and my friend (girl) have had alot of stuff said to them. My wife laughs it off because she knows they are just kids. My friend has alot of great comebacks that usually shuts them up.It helps that they are both very good at Halo. I guess it is todays equivalent to the prank phone call. Being anonymous has made young kids into some real jerks. All you can do is give feedback. I just wish there was a way that good ppl had more weight in banning/reporting ppl. because it seems to take alot to get banned. I am gratefull for games that let you quickly mute ppl too.

This is why I usually go to a party chat when I play online or I just don't turn my mic on. You gotta find the right games to play.

Halo is a great game but most people who play it are under-aged noobs.

Sorry for your girlfriend :)

To be honest man, Halo is by far the worst for douche bags online. And to be fair, she IS a girl, and is more likely to receive a lot of this sort of thing. The thing she needs to realize is that they are either 12 years old, or will never get laid by an attractive woman in their lives. They are losers, plain and simple. They just use words, and thats as far as they can, and would ever, go. So tell her not to fret. People will always be jerks, its just the world.

Thing is my g/f had a "bad" childhood....if you know what i mean and some of the things they said really hit a spot with my g/f....it really upset her, thing is we didnt talk to anyone else in the match they just singled her out because she has a girls name as her gamer tag...

Plus normaly shes good at shaking it off but the things these guys were saying was awful...

Party chat, Don't tell them she is a "she", Delete the messages form random people don't read them I mean if they were being d***** in the game why read a message from them.

This is typical for Halo. When you hear these kinds of stories, they're almost always from Halo.

Tell your girlfriend that she should set-up blog or something to find girlgamers like herself to game with. She shouldn't let A-holes like the ruin her gaming experience...as a matter of fact you should start-up a blog on this site explaining what happened. But make sure it's real chicks who respond!!! lol

Some guys are so mean and such goofs its ridicolous online. Most just dont know how to interact with females imo and they just act out to "look cool". Some of my favorite friends to game with are girls, i dont see why some dudes are so rude and mean.

Just let her know that not all gamers are that way, you just see alot of them online in games like cod4 adn halo3 imo. That just represents a small portion of gamers though. You and her should get some mature people on yoru friends list to play with, then you know they wont curse you and your girlfriend.

Even more of a reason she just needs to not let it bother her. I mean you can't hide from things like that forever, it just gets worse. I think that things like that happening to women is the worst thing that could happen to them, but letting other peoples unrealistic and idle threats and taunts bother her isn't going to help her out. She just needs to be strong.

Everyone is nasty to everyone on xbl or psn, male or female, just suck it up and tell her to either fire back with something biting and intelligent (usually works), or just block them.

Personally, I think she's got the right idea. You can't clean up the internet, you can just avoid it or find places that are not disgusting ratholes. Unfortunately most online games are ratholes.

You guys have an option of not using the mic. Most people have their mic but put it on mute & when someone is talking crap most people just remove their headsets. I find it weird that some people really get into talking with some online people who they don't even know. If we were talking about the game were playing & how to play better as a team then that's the only time I would use the mic & headset. Women get teabaged too in real life it's just up to her how she deals with it. Running away is the cowardly solution. If a small thing about a game online bothers her so much then how would she react in real life against jerks run away too. They will just continue being jerks unless she stands up for herself.

You should report them. Also, Halo multiplayer attracts plenty of young and poor trash.

Sorry to hear about your bad experience. This is the main reason why I don't use a headset mic when I play online games. Not just for Halo, but any game on Xbox Live in general. I understand your gf might be senistive, but she should still not take it personal and relise that it's just a bunch of stupid kids with no lives. Xbox Live is notirously known for this.

You should do what I do and just use a mic when you play with friends, and you won't have any problems..

PS - Sorry for my bad grammer

Theres no doubt that this happens alot. I've recieved my fair share of harressment. It's best to ignore the idiots. Don't let them ruin a game (or gaming) for you. Tell her do what I do. Keep in mind, alot of these guys have never/will never, have contact with a real female. With that in mind, don't take it personal. They're just a couple of losers with nothing better to do. Toughen up!

Im not gonna baby her but dude the world isn't a nice place, get use to that. I'm guessing they were some dumb kids, she needs to get over 2 kids and game again. Dont let other people ruin it for you or her for that matter. She could man up a little and trash talk them back with some classic" is this how you expect to pick up girls? no wonder your online with another guy" See what happens :D

just send them rep for what theyve done, and block communications. its that simple. dont let the virus that they are shapeyour world into thier evil. it saddens me to see people treat the jewels of this world with such disrespect. I enjoy talking to girls over xbl and its just stupid that people get other people to change the course of thier lives (not just in video games, but every aspect) by mistreating them. luckly there is that solution of blocking communications and just dont let them win by becoming a quitter over it. its really nothing when you play regularly with a cool group of people anyways. good friends overshadow the morons any day.

welcome to the experience that all who are ethnic minorities and women struggle with damn near daily online. Independent of any particular game. Independent of any particular genre. Independent of any particular gaming platform (PC/PS3/360/whatever). Just as anonymity seems to make internet cowardice run high, it also makes online gaming cowardice run high. Best plan: leave them bad feedback or call MS directly. if you on PC, report them to server admins and have them banned. learn from their example and be a better man. and yes, sexists/racists/perverts/immature people suck. in real life, online, and in gaming. always be a better man.

I play Halo alot, but I really hate most of the community for doing that.

Honestly, man, if you enjoy Halo and want her to get in on it just get a lot of nice dudes to play customs.


Customs is Halo.

Both my wife and my friend (girl) have had alot of stuff said to them. My wife laughs it off because she knows they are just kids. My friend has alot of great comebacks that usually shuts them up.It helps that they are both very good at Halo. I guess it is todays equivalent to the prank phone call. Being anonymous has made young kids into some real jerks. All you can do is give feedback. I just wish there was a way that good ppl had more weight in banning/reporting ppl. because it seems to take alot to get banned. I am gratefull for games that let you quickly mute ppl too.

I got my wife playing GOW2 with me and she was beginning to like it, until the matches would end or people would lay in with the OMG, it's a gurl playing Gears--are you hottttt????? I wanna F$)* you, lol. These people are at the bottom of the todem pole, haha. Too bad she will never be playing Gears with me again. All thanks to 15 year old little boys with a 4 inch hard on. Excuse my language and all, but seriously, how do these kids expect to make a living in the real world one day????????????????????
