Changing the culture of MMOs

You shouldn't have to be rolling deep in a guild to not have someone call you a faggot every three seconds, or a female player should be able to not be constantly sexually harassed by a bunch of socially awkward sociopaths.

So basically people want to play multi player community games with communities that don't exist?

MMO's are full of fucktards, if you don't like playing with fucktards why would you want to play an MMO? Regulating work place behaivor and a gaming enviroments are two different things despite what game producers think.

I get it, game producers want people to think their communities are civilized in order to make more cash. However MMO's really have no means to police their own communities beyond making sure people can't cheat. If the community itself doesn't police the MMO it will remain un-policed.

Players need to take responsibility for themselves not the game producer. If a female player is constantly sexually harassed she has as much responsibility in that happening as do the people doing the harassing her. Complaining about fucktards in MMO's is equal to strippers complaining when men call them whores. Next thing you know we will have strip joints where women aren't allowed to take off their cloths because that creates a hostile enviroment for the strippers.
