Lark reads every post in every thread... but we don't act differently when either she or Susan are around.

Thats cause I think a majority of us could get real women if we wanted to. Most people who are like "OMG! FEMALE! MUST BE NICE" are generally nerds who are so socially inept that they think that wooing women online by being uber nice is teh way to go.

Also - I never knew Susan was a female? I just proposed we called her Susan just cause?

It's not that he's female, so much that he's the bitch of DAC. Kind of like how one person among a group of sailors, or inmates, is usually given a female nickname, and forced to pee sitting down.

indeed, my guide to women:
1. insult her.
2. when she opens her mouth to retort, stick your dick in it.
3. say you'll cut her if she bites.
4. Finish up, say bye, and she'll anwer you with a *dribble*.

To be honest, a lot of women online want this sort of treatment anyway. Ever been to Missy's lair? Good. Don't.
I can think of three females who are part of DAC's community off-hand (there are probably more that I haven't thought of) who act and are treated pretty normally, and as yet none of them has started posting about how they're getting married to their perfect husband SORRY TO ALL MY FANS, or talk about their dildo collection in exchange for being made a mod on the interplay boards.
My experience with females online is generally bad, in that most of them are attnetion starved whores looking to build up a collection of geeks to flirt with, but there are exceptions (like DAC...

I'm not a female

Spazmo nicknamed me Susan for some unknown reason on #fallout and it kinda drifted along with me here.

Did people honestly think Susan was female? Anyone?

I did. For like for four seconds. Back when I was a noob.

Unknown? You didn't notice the correlation between you being a jerkface nubatron and you getting a HI-LARIOUS nickname?

Eventually there will be a Fallout website and forums. Eventually. Personally, I think the conversation about it until then is better served at Fallout-centric forums, in particular here and NMA. But that's just my own opinion. You're simply not going to get a completely objective view of Fallout 3 on elderscrolls.com, just as you wouldn't expect to have an objective discussion of The Elder Scrolls here.

I have an advantage here because i knew those boards from way before this Fallout at Bethesda talk. I even registered over a year ago, but i forgot the password and nick... I kept an eye on it, from time to time, since December, when i was first aware of the interest by Bethesda in aquiring the license. Since i still have a couple of weeks with a lot of leisure time i`ll keep going there, although one needs to have nerves of steel to spend time over there, the same aplies to TeS fans in the Fallout fansites. The idea that everything i`m posting will be deleted in a month after the topics get closed isn`t exactly motivating though, in time i`ll stick for the discussions at NMA and here.

Oh and i used to go alot to the channel you`re talking about it`s here
irc://chatspike.net/fallout3
you can sometimes find the devs here
irc://chatspike.net/morrowind
but it`s a TeS hardcore fans place.

My lawyers shall be in touch with you shortly. Further, 'the one's who aren't reasonable human beings aren't worth knowing' rule is fairly applicable to all people. Funny that.

I haven't yet mustered the courage/lack of self preservation necessary to subject my mind to what I fear would be the massed, contagious stupidity of the Elderscrolls forums, yet.
