If this is an online game or gaming it is well know that gamers can sometimes have their own sterotypes when it comes to who plays and who succeeds. There have been numerous articles about the rampant abuse, trolling and threats used by male gamers against other women and girls in the gaming world. Very often they will be victims of horrible trolling and violent threats of assault and threats of sexual violence.

my first question was: you mean to tell me in medieval times their were no women at all?. give over and I had a real rant about it.

I hear you though. ugg. we need more recognition in general!
