nerdy gamers are sexist in nature?

What do you think? The guys who get together in basements to "frag" each other are the ones who think of women as inferior?

It never really occured to me until I read the current notice on this forum: http://forums.gamebattles.com/index.php

GameBattles Users,

I am sorry to inform you that the GB forums are closed until further notice.

Tonight a female was appointed to the position of Head Admin for SOCOM II and I am shocked by the intolerance many people have on this site. This is not corporate america where values will be comprised. GameBattles.com is a small business run by myself and many volunteers for one purpose, to enjoy gaming online. I do NOT and will NOT allow intolerance of any kind to be posted freely on GameBattles.com. Whether or not some of you think that women are here to serve you or "wash the dishes" as you disgustingly put it is irrelevant and dehumanizing. GameBattles and its forums were never created to encourage or be the petri dish for any such discussion.

Gaming will continue online as normal, but the forums will be down until we can establish more concrete guidelines and structure to ensure the future of the GameBattles community.

Regards,
Chip
