it sounds like you’ve just given up, fireshadow. what do you suggest, convincing every loudmouthed 15yo with misplaced anger on the internet not to troll people?
i’d like to think that once female game reviewers (and gamers, for that matter) become more of a norm, there will be no point in the trolling.
it’s not just going to stop though, the smallest indie game developers get trolled for whatever, regardless of sex… anyone writing anything for a well known site, especially opinion pieces like reviews, has to expect that a certain amount of people are going to want to get under their skin, for whatever reason. if they’re female, that’s one thing trolls are going to latch on to. i dont, however, see that being such an issue at a site like bb vs. kotaku or wherever.
