Not that all y'all gentlemen out there need the help, we're sure, but just in case: if you're a nerd and looking to meet a nice lady, then... er... do exactly what you're doing anyways?
MMOGs, or Massive Multiplayer Online Video Games, are a buzzing hive of Geekdom and have actually attracted a sizable female population. The problem for girls online is that guys playing games like WoW, Eve Online, and Second Life act like complete asshats around them. Whether they’re asking girls “Are you REALLY a girl?” over and over, kneeling to propose at their first meeting, or just reverting back to fourth-grade antics like boob jokes and ass grabbing, most dudes do not play it cool around pixelated chicks.
It's true, basic courtesy is really important in situations like these. Like, when you start to masturbate to a girl's avatar, send them a nice note to let them know. A little respect goes a long way online, fellas.
