And you think that is enough to prove that all women are attention whores, or that at the very least enough of them are as to be grounds for automatic disqualification in something so simple as an online friendship?

Sigh, how many times do I have to say it- I did not say "all", nor do I think Oblivion is implying all of them are not worth it. But the MAJORITY (51% or more when it comes to two options, majority does not mean 99% lol) of female gamers, through my personal experience and the experience of others aswell as numerous facts, are most likely attention whores. I cannot say the exact number because I haven't met every single person- instead, I'm using logic (and a couple facts) to make a generalization.

And yes, if the majority follow a pattern that a person dislikes, it is grounds for disqualification. If you dealt drugs in your life, then most companies won't accept you. That's just how it works. I could go into a further debate as to why it works how it works and that it's not as bad as people make it out to be, but I'd be re-using a good lot of my arguments that I've already laid out.

I meant that as an example of why inductive reasoning doesn't work. Of course not all Germans (On renforums or otherwise) are asshats, but that doesn't mean that the asshats aren't here, and that just proves my point that induction is shit. If I tried to make such a point, all you would have to do is point to a German Renforum member who isn't a faggot. If you tried to say all female gamers are attention whores, all I have to do is find one who isn't (For example, Crimson, who is both female and a gamer but pretty lax on the attention whoring. If anything, she's quite the opposite and keeps a pretty low profile considering her high standing in the community). Understand?

I know you meant it as an example, and I used that example to still say if you were to apply it correctly, it could stand as a fairly strong reasoning to not want to game with Germans. I wouldn't bother with having to prove you wrong (assuming you WERE wrong) if you have personal experience, the claims of others, and a couple facts to strengthen your reason. It'd only be if you were trying to get Germans banned that I'd then bother with proving you wrong. But if you simply did not want to game with them, that's a different ball park.

Also no, that's not how it works, dumbass. That's like saying the whole theory of evolution is wrong because one Christian said it was wrong. Infact, that's one of the most fucking retarded things I've ever read on here.

I don't get why you're incapable of understanding that some people just don't want to fucking play with female gamers sometimes. People have preferences, and people have things they specifically do not want. I don't like boring games, therefore I won't play them. I don't like playing in social games with people who can't speak English, therefore I won't bother playing with them (usually, anyways).

I think you've been so goddamn hypnotized by America's recent mentality of "YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT EVERYONE AND LOVE EVERYONE LOL" that you honestly believe people shouldn't have the right to have their own goddamn opinions based on their personal experiences to justify not wanting to do certain things with people.
