Don't bring any gender equality or segregation talk in here, it has no place here. If you don't agree with this policy make a thread in Website Feedback. Thanks. |

We have made a wiki page to acknowledge all the things the female only group is doing to be a part of the community. We are also trying to still support each other and the growth of E-Sports. So thank you to everyone who has supported our group to this point & if you would like to check out the wiki page, you can do so right here: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/GoSc
It is not done, it is still a work in progress but it is coming out very well.

1st member spotlight: TESLA!
* Name: Lori "Tesla" Slaughter
* Preferred race: Zerg
* League: Not ranked
http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/User:ICCup.Tesla
* How did you get involved in BW/SC2:
I got involved into Broodwar because of a guy I liked. Eventually I became an ICCup Admin. from there I was an admin for ICCup for about 2 years at which point I got into SC2 beta where I started doing commentary and hosting tournaments.
* By which team/player/caster? are you most inspired:
Team is hard to say, I would probably have to say Team Dignitas. As for a player I would say someone like Moman or Ret. I know both of them and they are wonderful people. As for Caster I would have to say the Plott Brothers. They are just amazing, funny and very smart.
* What would you ultimately like to see the future hold in regards to female players?
I would like to see more female only leagues. Ones that are as big as the male ones, but for females only. I would also like to see the community become a bit more friendly towards females as a whole and of course this will help the growth of E-Sports.
* What do you do in your time when you are not playing or watching esports?
Wait there is a time when you don't play or watch esports? Jk! I actually work for a lawyer part time. When I am not playing or watching esports I am looking for something to do to help the community more. Such as run events/tournaments, do commentary or maybe make some guides for people who are new to that particular game.
* If you're in team, what team are you in and what is your role with them?
Team Dignitas and I am a blog writer for them
* How old are you & how long have you been playing BW/SC2?
22 & 3 years.
* If you could do 1 thing in regards to BW/SC2, what would you do and why?
Take a picture with Jaedong cause his muta micro is amazing!!!

It seems a bit silly to make a big deal out of a player being a girl. I thought the point of posting about Starcraft was to be about Starcraft. I mean obviously people have side interests, but really what difference does it make in relation to SC? Like they deserve extra attention just because they're chicks? If not, what difference does it make? If so, why is them being a girl significant to their SC career/skill?

The point of the GoSc Group is very simple -
The Girls of Starcraft group was created as a way to help encourage more females to play the game and the constant growth of females in the starcraft community. For the longest time Starcraft has been male dominated. One of the goals of GoSc is to help give recognition to the female players who have not been given such in the past. Another goal is to help encourage a more friendly and competitive environment for the female gamers in Starcraft. The members of GoSc firmly believe that the group is a great way to help support one another and is a great motivator for each other in terms of trying to become more active in the community.
This is exactly what I put on our wiki page. Apparently you didn't check it out. ^_^

I honestly don't care at all whether you're a girl, a guy, zealot, zergling, ultralisk, or any other type of life form. I want to see good starcraft, regardless of who it's from. I think for us to truly progress as a gaming community you need to see that ANYONE can play starcraft and be good at it with practice. On the same hand, just because you're a girl, you should NOT get ANY special treatment in games, we should be a community without segregation.
This shock and awe that girls play starcraft at a high level is really old, and this whole proclamation of being a girl and playing starcraft is equally old.
I feel (and I hope I'm not alone here) that there are girls in the starcraft community that have gotten recognition from the community WITHOUT the need for a pedestal like this e.g., Milkies. If you're a bright, talented star you'll shine no matter how many people are around you. You're making their headline attraction in the starcraft community be the fact that they're female, and that makes this whole thing no more childish then the people that go nuts every time they find out that you're a girl and you play video games.

Go rant in Gay starcraft players' thread.

Why do girls want girl only leagues?
Sorry but its something I never really understood. I always assumed it was blokes setting up girl only leagues. Doesnt it feel like your deliberatley putting distance between sexes? Its not like its a power lifting competition or whos got the largest cock 
It was watching poker where i first really started going wtf? but sc2 seems a whole diffrent game because you are essentially behind a screen.
Sorry if this seems a bit invasive, but i am really curious :D
|
^ What? Isn't that off-topic?
This isn't about girl leagues. You should, however make a thread about that, because some people are always eager to express their opinions about it in wrong threads and get warned. You can save them, by doing so, so go go
