I have ~10k hours in counterstrike across multi game versions and accounts. I noticed a similar thing over my years. The players doing well in a match were often neutral towards gamer girls, but the guy having a shit match would be the fastest sack of shit every time. Especially if one of the top fraggers pointed out they were being beaten by a girl.
Obviously there are always exceptions to any rules but in my anecdotal experience the guys who were confident in their abilities didn't care about women but losers would attack them just for speaking.
Especially if one of the top fraggers pointed out they were being beaten by a girl.
Not really a gold star by the top player’s name for this, either. The comment alone leaves plenty of room to be interpreted as “girls should be easy to beat/poor gamers because they’re girls.”

Why did you post this? Seems like a waste of time.

I have noticed that all of these misogynists are incredibly insecure alpha-pretending males. Can't imagine how tiring this constant fear must be.

And the worst part of it is that probably half of those hours happened within a few years in the middle there. I played like 6 hours a night every night with my friends. Good times but yeah....
Same feelings here, I used to average around 1k hours per year in my "active" years.
All of the issues with CS2 kinda put the end to that, played the beta, then stopped for a year, and now I play few games every few days

They wouldn't say "you're getting beaten by a girl" as much as they would respond to the guys losing their minds who happened to be below them on the scoreboard by saying things like "Why are you yelling at her she's playing better than you are shut up". Kinda way.

My heavy CS days were early in csgo days. Back when the skin gambling scene and the pro scene were popping early on. My buddies and I would watch the pro games and then get all hyped to improve and we would jump into ranked only to get fucking pub stomped. Good times. Eventually we did start getting good. I only ever got to whatever rank was below global and only two of my buddies ever got to global.
However my top fps bragging moment was actually in valorant when it was a closed beta still I absolutely shat all over pro csgo player at the time named JDM in a lobby. Top fragged and completely dominated him the entire match.
That was when I peaked in my fps gaming lol. It's all been downhill since. I'm still better than most people at fps games in general, but I am not as sharp and snappy as I was when I was a younger man with way more free time to practice and improve every night.

Well then the obvious conclusion is that respecting women makes you better at video games.
I don't think that's right, I'm terrible at games but I still respect women (enough to avoid making them interact with me whenever possible)

G*mers aren't known for being smart.

You cant pirate pussy, and we all know how gamers feel about subscription models.

I never understood this mentality, myself.
Gamers: "I never get laid...
"Also Gamers: "Women are just kitchen accessories."
I understand it, but I don't think it applies.
Gamers tend to think of things as quests. A box to check off. A completionist. Getting married and having kids is part of life's quests for many people. It's not seen as collaboration in many ways.

How does romance work in most video games? Select the correct dialogue options, memorize the correct answer to questions, give them the same gift every day?
The other main way a lot of young men “interact” with women is through porn, which is always made with a mind to what a woman would enjoy during sex…/s

Only two genders: male and political.

Counter Strike was way better when this was the vibe. I am so tired of competitive this and gun case that. I've never been interested in 5v5 scrimming in any serious way, but that's all CS2 wants me to do.
I want gun game, I want wc3, I want ZM. I want quirky custom maps (glass!) and quake sounds and !bet ct all. I want to fuck around with new friends on a server for an evening, not to sweat my balls off throwing practiced smokes on dust2.
Same thing kinda happened to TF2. I mean, Competitive is dead but the server browser and community servers are not what they used to be. I miss when it was front and center. Today most people just play casual on Valve servers.
After a quick search it seems like the CS2 in-game server browser has gone to complete shit. I hope Valve fixes it. It's part of the Source Legacy.

this literally has nothing to do with the game itself. it's about behavior towards other people, which is intently political.
also video games are art which makes them political as well.
the fact that you kneejerked into this reaction feels super insecure and reactionary.

More like I'm just sick of people hijacking my favorite art form to express political/social issues or sexual fetishes, both of which are becoming too common. It's exactly why I've grown more and more in favor of retro gaming, back neither of those expressions were anything but a fringe group of miserable individuals and weirdos that most gamers ignored. Not going to argue further, I've spoken my piece.

because you think of "I never get laid" as a normal human need to connect with another person, which is what it is but they're too deep in misogyny to realize it. instead to them getting laid is a quest to complete and it involves a quest item known as a woman, not a character. so I never get laid has less of an undertone of "why can't I connect with a woman" and more of "when will we get our government mandated sex slaves"
