As for those.. well, I fail to think of a word for that bunch in the guild.. :cursing:
Kinda feel sorry for that poor shammy that's stuck between you and the guild inch: I'd be very worried to get on the wrong side of either of you!
*sigh*

I have heard from multiple sources that my entire weekend fiasco was thanks to one misconception by the guild leader:
I am a girl. And girls cannot perform in video games at the same level as men.

F*#!ing unbelievable.
That is unbelievable. I would /gquit right now. It doesn't seem like this guild (especially the leader) has any respect for the time and effort you but into gearing up your shaman (which was an amazing feat btw, wish I could do that!). This even more so adds to why my toons don't join guilds and I rarely reveal that I'm a female gamer. I just wish it was easier to hide on Vent =P Good thing I'm five-boxing now b/c if I want to avoid the idiots like this I can just run myself through an instance but if you're a raider, it's kinda hard.

In my opinion, find a guild that respects the fact that you're a badass female gamer who pulls her weight (and probably more!). There is no difference when it comes to button mashing and those that think there is are just sad, narrow minded people who should leave their bedroom and greet the sun.

Either way, welcome back and I hope all this drama-filled BS goes away for you and you find a solution that works.
Bah, I hate to think that jerks like that would prevent you from revealing that you are a female gamer. I'm only 26, but in the past 5-6 years of gaming in online communities, I have seen a HUGE jump in the number of females playing and contributing to the gaming community. I for one am glad that this is happening, because frankly, I think it to some degree curtails some of the immature idiots out there. Not to say that there aren't female gamers out there that aren't immature, but on a whole females are more mature at an earlier age (I'm not afraid to say it gentlemen).

Don't hide yourself on the internet. Be vocal, and do what you can to add to the online community the best way you can.
