So called 'friends' on XBL


Recommended Posts

Ok so heres the deal

i used to play a few games with a close nit group of friends from Aus and US before the new dashboard came out, and all was going well, then the new dashboard came out and i made a cool female avatar ( as you most of you know im a male) but i just think the female ones are nicer, hence why i have one, but anyway we got on really well. Now at this point i must point out that the people i was playing with was all girls (yes i know rare) but i thought cool either way, we got talking swapped photos and even telephone numbers.

Now i havnt been on XBL for 2 days due to birthdays and jobs, but ive found out that they have all removed me and when i asked why all i got was a reply saying i was 'weird'. We had been playing various arcade games and getting on well for around 2-3 weeks then this.

I cant get my head round it at all, now they have taken to sending me voice messages and its got to the point where ive had to report them.

Talk about so called friends? bollocks to them, think i'll stick to my PC community and be done, sorry about the rant i just had to get it off my chest... talking about chest.. does anyone want my Flu bug?

haha nice pic Seth, btw are you stalking me? you seem to be in all my threads today.. lol

nah the entinre community aint like that, i thought i had found some decent girl gamers... guess not.,. ohh well moving on:)

it's probably something to do with the fact you are male, and made a female avatar

Yeah, my brother has a female avatar mainly to **** off people, he's like that.

But if I was a female, trading pics and etc. with another ''female'' then realising it was a man then i'd be freaked out.

Wait, they knew you are a guy, right?

lol crazed??? i hate this whole 'girl power' thing..i really hate it, that's why all my good mates are blokes, cept maybe 2 or 3 girls. girls are only good for 'other things'....they whinge and bitch too much. i dumped my last gf at her birthday party cause she got cut because i didn't have an angelic voice like her and stopped playing singstar! friggin mole

Women. Hahaha.

Crazy animals. Like hamsters but with the ability to talk.

The funniest thing is both your surprise at their reaction, and the big drama you've made it out to be. I had to double check your age because I didn't want to be so blunt to a 14 year old who perhaps doesn't understand the way of the world, you're 27.

Could you please be more blunt in future :rofl:

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
