I won't bash them to hard because I think they get that every time they spam their threads. I just hope they get good so at least they are interesting to watch. You can't hate on the girl for wearing skimpy clothing. The entire point of their channel is try to score viewers via this girl. Its a gimmick, sex sells. I think once she actually learns how to play computer games and shows a genuine interest in it outside of being forced into it, the cast could probably be great. Hmm, that didn't sound very positive did it. I can sense the banhammer coming. I should tech burrow while I got the chance. Anyways I wish you guys luck. I may not agree with your advertising tactics and exploitation of women but, I can respect your willingness to put yourself out there and try it. So kudos. Maybe you shouldn't make too many assumptions about people. How do you know that I am being exploited? Yes, sex sells, but it's just a plus because I'm female. As for computer games (and maybe video games in general), I play them. I grew up with video games. I own a Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Gamecube, Playstation, Playstation 2, and a Wii (too poor to get a ps3 right now dammit.) I've only gotten into computer games in the past few years. Aside from all that game playing, I also enjoy going shopping with friends and putting on makeup  Also, my gamer tag doesn't refer to anything sexual. It's a reference to Hello Kitty. It sounds a lot less weird introducing myself as Kitty rather than Hello Kitty  But thanks for the luck and I will continue on trying to get better at casting. - Kitty | ||

I must say, especially now with all the new "banlings" it is truly shocking that such sexist remarks such as "oh you have cleavage as your gimmick, i get it" etc is not being moderated, with the posters being penalized. I am a new poster, but I doubt that it is good for your website to have such bigots posting freely. | ||

Anyways, as a guy with a social life, let me say right now that how kitty is dressed really isn't too uncommon for how girls dress now a days, and honestly i don't even find it that revealing, at all. Sure guys are gonna look at her breasts(i know i did lol) but really now, only being able to focus on that for the WHOLE length of her videos might be a hint that you need to learn to control yourself a bit more. A normal guy would perhaps feel slightly distracted for a bit and then move on. But only focusing on that until the video is over and then bashing her for dressing appropriate(at least imo) is probably not the right thing to be doing. Of course this is the internet, and boobs will be mentioned without a doubt, but that's really not kitty's fault. So i checked the vids and i think you guys got a lot of learning to do.... But hey, you guys are new to this and that's completely normal. I really hope you guys keep this up so you can improve quickly. And while i don't judge you guys completely based on having a girl commentator, the fact that you DO have a girl commentator is really refreshing and definitely puts you on the map. Good luck to you both. | ||

I am a new poster, but I doubt that it is good for your website to have such bigots posting freely. It's really more of sexism than bigotry and to be honest I understand it. Video Gaming, and especially Progamers are primarly males. I don't like anyone trying to capitilazie on us based purely on sexual appeal. I want GOOD esports casters not gimmicky ones. Like I said before, wear a nerd t-shirt. Goto the Handsome Nerd or Jinx. There is no reason NOT to wear one because A. it supports the sport you are trying so hard to get into and B. it removes any sexual lure you may be using to draw in viewers. Our token gaming nerd sex symbol has been filled, and her name is Olivia Munn. | ||

If they weren't good they wouldn't have said they were going to cast them, obviously. | ||

Kudos for having a girl or else you wouldn't be getting this much attention, but too bad it will take her 1-2 years to build up the knowledge and experience to commentate at any useful capacity. | ||

I may not agree with your advertising tactics and exploitation of women but, I can respect your willingness to put yourself out there and try it. So kudos. Honestly, I dont understand how so many people think that is "skimpy clothing"? Is it just because this is a video game forum? Because if someone was wearing the same thing anywhere else, nobody would mention anything. Hell, typical mid-teen girls go to school wearing far worse things than that... not to mention that the same outfit would have no issues in a work place. A news woman on TV right now in Tampa is wearing almost the same thing, except with an open dress-suit on top. So why is it a problem here? No offense but some of the people here are acting like they have been sheltered and never seen a girl in years lol. And on the topic of "using sex to sell"... how is that the case? How many videos do you even see either of them in? That's just silly. | ||
