And before some smartass goes like: "are you living in the 90s? Girls play videogames dude, I'm a girl gamer! I even play Fortnite and CoD with my roommates."

Videogames in terms of the crowds that attracts is male dominated, especially as adults. Some girls replying that they play doesn't change that fact. I've never met a single girl into games... except one. My English teacher, she was younger than me, I think barely an adult (night school for adults). But I quit that place without finishing the studies and never connected with teachers, plus we're from different countries, there's no common ground, aside that I've never an adult woman into them. Do they think they're silly and childish?

OP has been banned, should we delete or keep the thread?

keep it, the conversation was productive, if one sided, and people spent effort writing their messages.

Part of the draw of lemmy is the rich message archive we are building

Honestly, I don't think any thread should ever get removed once it hits a specific threshold of participation. There is nothing worse then spending time crafting messages to have then just poof disappear and gone when someone gets banned, or decides they are not winning the conversation and self-delete the post. Locked is better, because peoples contributions and arguments can be referenced or linked to later.

Remember the hyper paranoid moderator we had for awhile? My biggest issue with them wasn't their level of crazy, that was actually great - it gave us so much to talk about, really amped up participation... My biggest issue was that they would DELETE their threads, zapping all of those discussions and participations.

Damn, that's a memory I didn't want to remember. What a time.
