SHAAAUGHT!!!

That is awesome. Shows how one person can make a difference. EA is pretty active on their message boards with gamers. Right now the big debate is a cooldown period that would prevent you from joining another EASHL club for 12 hours. It originally started as 24 hours, but with a lot of feedback they changed it to 12 hours with one freebie change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, the sexist jokes would be way funnier if they were remotely clever or original. I think it's a great idea as well. It'd be nice to include the women's national teams at some point in the future. I know I'd play with them. Take that as you will... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattPie Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Eh, the sexist jokes would be way funnier if they were remotely clever or original. The reply along the lines of, "This is a good thing for you guys. More women playing video games increases the chances you'll get laid someday." was pretty good.
