Play your MG toon while appearing offline on bnet?

This would explain a lot of communication issues Iâve had.
11/07/2018 05:02 PMPosted by LucindiannaI ran into a problem recently with my horde side raiding guild. When they found out about this character they accused me of being an ERPer. I was shamed in the discord and then booted from the guild.
Provided this is true, your guild that booted you are insecure schmucks and you're better off without. I'm a GM, I RP, and I enjoy WoW's lore and storytelling. I wouldn't ever dream of booting someone from my guild because of actions they take on another server. That's none of my business.
11/07/2018 05:02 PMPosted by LucindiannaNow I want to know from other guys who play as female characters how often you've run into problems when people find out that you are a guy playing a female character. Same goes with people who play on Moonguard; Especially those in skimpy mogs? How likely is this to be a problem for me in the future?
I don't run into issues. I RP on MG on both males and females, and I've never had a problem. I wouldn't put much stock in it.
I have a mix of male and female toons, but my mains have always generally been male. My first female character I created was as a result of me coming back to WoW to create and level a Deathknight. At the time, I wanted something different to hold my interest, so I created a female DK. Had a blast leveling her through the story line and up to level 85... now she is my bank alt.
The only mildly negative response I ever had was from my wife and children, who were like, "um, Dad/Hon, why do you have a female character?" I was like, "I don't know, just wanted something different." They accepted that and we all moved on.
Although my wife still gives me a hard time if I am on WoW or any game and playing a female character (I have to assure her that she is still the only one for me). LOL :)

Many of my newer alts are females, but I'm obviously male. I haven't run into that problem at all, but my main is a male so any actual non-LFR raiding I would do would be on him.
I'm a girl and while I only play female characters to resemble myself. I find it that everyone should be able to play or RP whatever you wanna be. As long as its for the game, if you actually do it to catfish people which will result in someones feelings getting hurt I find it wrong.
This probably won't be read 9 pages in, but I will publicly display my shame.
OP, I play girls on MG and I (used to) ERP all the time. Not so much now with less time to play wow. But I was super into it, and eventually my guild found out. They found out I was a hoe who charged thousands of gold and bought every single profession mount with Goldshire gold.
And you know what? They didn't kick me. They think it's awesome. I am a meme in my guild. Whenever a MG pug joins the group they are like "Lag, do you know that guy/girl? ;)"
Find a guild who accepts you.

Why on earth worry? In my guild practically all the guys have at least one female toon that they play. We even have a few women who have at least one male character so I don't see why your guild got upset.
It really should not matter, just find another guild of mature adults to join. Idiocy like you describe is really stupid.

I wanted to try a DH. Blood Elves are the manbuns of the Horde. I felt like I didn't have a choice other than to make mine female.
I could care less what someone plays or how they play. Their sub, their choices. To be quite honest, the idea of males playing females has been in the game for sooooo long now, I don't ever even see it come up as a topic anymore (except on GD). I have a couple of female alts.
The only thing I find sliiiiiiightly odd is when someone only makes female characters. Every single alt is a female BE or NE. I don't care enough for it to make a difference. I just wonder "Why?"
And sorry, I don't buy the whole "I don't want to stare at a guys !@# for hours" thing. I don't ever stare at my character's $%^ - like it never even crosses my mind. And it must be tough to play Zelda or Mario or any other thousands of games if staring at a man bothers you that much.

i think some forget this is fantasy, go do whatever you want and find a better guild. sad is all i can say if it really happened. i do anything and everything this game has to offer and have tons of fun. ain't no guild telling me what i can and can't do.
and to the person above me just cause it don't bug you doesn't mean it don't others. i'm a girl play male and female and ya i do kind of get tired of playing a female and staring at it, sure many others feel the same.

I'm not sure I believe that you aren't an ERPer
Dear ERPenthouse,
I never thought this would happen to me, but...
I've played as male and female chars, I don't think anyone really cares and i've never run into any problems.
Only few race male look normal. Beside, female appearance also not good when comparing to other MMO. World MMO is now full of eye candy character and body fitted nice armor. So there is nothing appealing as a s ex object in the man's eye when using a Warcraft female character. It is just less eyesore for using a male character.
Your mog has given me A-cup angst.

Some guys aren't aiming for sexiness though. Sometimes one prefers to look more fierce or likes certain qualities in male characters more. Take this mog I am using for example. If I used this same mog on a female character, it would look worlds worse. Maybe sexier in ways, but the point of a mog like this is to look fierce and menacing.
I assume that most female characters are played by males. It's my paradigm, my new normal.

Remember. Gnomes aren't small. They are fun sized!
No stigma at all.
My bf plays female characters all the time for the same reason I do -
if I'm going to look at the backside of a character for hundreds of hours,
I prefer it to be a female backside (i'm bi,i just prefer girls' backsides to guys')
and he's straight, same reason for the view :)
There's no stigma anywhere except for self-conscious people who care what others think, which is always a bad idea.
