Very bizarre that supposed 'black' people would try to gatekeep women out of the gaming space, knowing damn well these racist cacs think the same thing about us
I’m still trying to figure out what gatekeeping even means in this context. What are these people trying to protect against? Sometimes people don’t even understand how absurd their shyt sounds.

Ahhhhhh so it’s revenge. Now we getting to the crux of the matter. Thank you
That's a weird ass conclusion. :what:

It's not revenge. People gatekeep because they don't want uninformed opinions fukking up something. A lot of it stems from deciding the direction of something. Imagine if, on this board, we gave equal weight to to the direction of this board to people who just signed up yesterday and had only two posts versus someone who has been here since the beginning and logged a few thousand posts. The people who have been here longer would feel some sort of way, understandably so.

In any case, while I doubt the true context of the data (the definitions of own and play leave too much in the air), I'm not surprised at the idea that women play games. My girl does and we both know a good number of them.

Can you see why this approach doesn't work in an industry worth billions? They can feel whatever way they want.

The fact of the matter is it doesn't align with reality and their small community isn't making the stock prices go up.

Some suggested the data is wrong or that the owner stats are skewed by moms buying consoles for boys. (This isn’t how the monthly surveys work or how data is collected, something Piscatella pointed out in follow-up tweets.)

I’ve seen multiple men post that they can’t find these “gamer girls” and thus, they don’t buy these stats. Checking their other tweets, it’s pretty clear why women might be avoiding them

Others asked where all these women were online in games like Call of Duty, pointing out that they rarely hear girls in multiplayer lobbies. To those people, I suggest you scroll through all the angry replies to Piscatella’s stats and take note of all these mad dudes making fun of women for playing The Sims or mobile games, calling them “fake gamers” and inventing elaborate conspiracy theories involving data manipulation and “woke” agents.


Dweebs in shambles :mjlol:

Until they piss off people and make a portion leave, or get hit with some other bullshyt. Even more, this is how we have people justifying the most absolute bullshyt companies pull. In any case, all I am saying is that the reason why people are concerned or gatekeep is not on some weird revenge shyt. That doesn't make sense. At worst, they doubt the "new" people know or understand anything and will consume anything thrown at them, even the worst garbage and will support lower standards.

Boys in the 90s and early 2000s played games while their sister watched and now she knows nerd/anime culture and video games and some people are shocked.
:mjlol: It’s just bruhs today still trying to gate keep. Video games as still being the boys club. Things change and slowly more women are getting into gaming. Either through watching them or playing them. The Sims, Zelda, Animal Crossing, and story choice games have a big female fanbase. Another thing that people doesn’t bring up. Is that women generally picks up. Some of the same hobbies as their man.
