    Harassment ‘of’ 10-17 year olds ‘by’ the game? My brother in Christ, 10-17 year olds ARE the harassment. As a 40+ gamer, I’m confident that we can drop harassment levels by 90 percent if those kids weren’t on it. Little sweaty shitheads are why I stopped playing multiplayer games.

      Unfortunately, that is not the case. In my humble experience, the most disgusting (and/because inexcusable) shit comes from grown up guys who were 10-17 years old 15-20 years ago (and they never changed). Online gaming is a hostile environment for girls and women, and it’s by far not only due to 10-17-year-olds.
