same for every game-related online service. My buddy's gamertag used to Armychick and didn't matter the game, he'd always get private chat invites and friend requests almost immediately. People are just horribly desperate for any kind of contact with a woman it seems. Even if there's a fairly big chance that she's a dude.

No, the fact that a female character gets mobbed isn't all that surprising, however, it's very easy to see when one avatar is surrounded by a bunch of people. The fact it's a far more 'real-world' style of representation would have made me think that it was less likely to be so obviously mobbed, because wouldn't you be embarrassed to be in the middle of a gang of people all huddling around some female character. Evidently people aren't, and perhaps I shouldn't be surprised, but I was a little.

Yeah, I know what you mean. But it's still anonymous. You may have a name and an "identity" but rarely do either correlate to the person they actually represent. So, really, why should it be any different? Just because you can hear someone's voice, it doesn't mean they won't shout a flurry of slurs and shit at you. And hell, that's closer to a real person than an avatar and text bubble, right?
