Thank you Dain. Hasn't happened to me recently, but its that kind of behavior that got me to leave chat and stay away years ago. Sure, most of the guys here are respectable, but the few even if one or two could cause one to feel so uncomfortable that she, or even he (if it were the other way around) would avoid being in a place altogether. After I had made a complaint about it then, I still went back for a little bit, tried to brush it off, afterall it was only words, perhaps I was over reacting, try to cope with the jerk that made the offending remarks, or if he did again, at least ignore him, but soon after I decided it best to just still with the forums, that I still wasn't comfortable on there afterall, so I just never went back on. No one should have to feel this way ever.

Paaaaper! Have you ever seen paper? Look at it, smell it!
I think this should be added to the Nintendo Age faq and that it should be grounds for immediate removal from Nintendo Age. We only have a handful of women that are on Nintendo Age to begin with and I would hate for it to remain that way as female gamers are just as big into gaming as male gamers. I would also like to add that I've seen some racist remarks in chat as well. There should be a zero tolerance policy for bigotry, sexual harassment, and overly lude or sivious behavior.
I want to keep Nintendo Age fun and enjoyable like everyone else and it saddens and disgusts me at some of the things I hear and see on Nintendo Age that, by the way, isn't remotely game related. I've said it before that I consider Nintendo Age to be a part of my family and when a member of Nintendo Age is singled out and put down, that's nothing more than an immature bully tactic. Immaturity extends to all ages and doesn't end at adulthood. I think that if there were a few bans for very inappropriate behavior it would be a wakeup to the community. At the very least I do believe there should be a suspension of members when they do something wrong and if it happens again then there should be a ban. This will at least give members a second chance to correct their behavior and allow them the opportunity to still be with NA.
The avatar photo of the_wizard_666 is how I feel right now.

I became aware of the situation in chat last night, and the things that the female user in question has been having said to her are way way way over line. I felt really bad for her. No user's should ever be treated the way she was, male or female. I get what you are saying about perspective, but what has happened to her is just wrong from any perspective.
