I'm not saying that one should have to deal with harassment.  However, giving us better tools so we wouldn't have to deal with harassment is better than losing people.

Esme pointed out that they could change in game and accounts ID's.  With the first bit, the perma-squelch option I mentioned, they could change in game ID's till the server decided to crap and it would do them no good.  They would still be squelched to Esme because the squelch goes off of their account ID.  The reason I brought up her changing her in game ID is due to the second bit she mentioned, them changing account ID's.  Perma-squelch wouldn't stop them from using the same in game ID if the account name tied to it is different, and if someone else hasn't taken it.

Her quitting that squad, changing country and changing her game ID is a fair bit better than quitting.  But it is just one of a few options available to her.

From what Esme mentioned, there were TWO involved in the incident.  Why is it that only ONE has been ejected?  Or was the second person not part of the squad?

Just for the record, 71sqn does not tolerate this kind of behaviour.

A player has been permanently ejected from the squad as a result of this incident.

That is all I have to say about this.

 :salute

 :salute to you and your squad.  
Most of the guys in your squad that I have fought with/against have been great!

"Her quitting that squad, changing country and changing her game ID is a fair bit better than quitting.  But it is just one of a few options available to her."

I really don't think that this should even have to be an option.  I considered this in January because of something that happened to me in game.  Then I came to my senses!  Why should I have to quit being AKPepprr because some guys don't like me and can't deal with me being there?  For me to disappear into the crowd with a different name...I would have to pretend to be a guy by changing my voice or not talk, quit talking to all the people in game I have made friends with and quit my squad, also quit flying my pink spit.  All the reasons I love playing the game. I would have to give up everything that makes me AKPepprr.  Why should I let them do that to me?  I would rather get a group together and make sure he couldn't up from a base for a long, long while.

I also want to say that most of the guys that I have met in the game have been really nice and quite respectful.  
 :salute to all of you!  :aok

I really don't get guys who have problems playing with women or treat MMOs as singles bars.  It just seems like a bizarre and alien way to think.

Of all the people that play this game, I can not understand why someone would ever get upset with you.  I think you are one of the nicest players in the game, and is always willing to fight.  The sad thing now is, we are usually flying the same county, so I don't get some of those fun fights we have had in the past.

 :salute

There was some confusion on this matter and as it turns out the second person involved was getting into an argument with the first person because he was so appaled by the behaviour. Esme was just leaving the channel by this point and just assumed that anther person with a raised voice on channel must be on at her also. Infact it was just the opposite.

Thanks guys, but I'm not trying to make this about me or the problems I have had in the past.  I have dealt, in most part, with some of the things.  I can handle the razzing and teasing which is in good fun, but being mean is another thing, and like I said, I've only had a few occasions that this has happened.  

My point was that she should not have to become a totally different person and pretend to be one of the guys, just to enjoy herself playing the game.  I do agree that we have to take everything that is said with a grain of salt and laugh it off, but some things that are said aren't that easy to look past.  I believe that you have to have balls of steel to be playing this game as a woman and give credit to everyone of them that does it.  I don't want her to have to change that OR quit.  

Oh...and thanks for saying that I am nice..  :angel:
