Man, now we just need more mod user girls since we have the author front covered! :D

Looking forward to what the future brings for the sites. Looks like BlindJudge is jumping in with both feet.

You two and Tamira were apparent, but... the others? o_O And I thought I was on top of checking profiles to check gender to avoid such awkward moments...

To put up with all the sexist nonsense is a proper show of strength.

Hey, not every woman plays SIMS or how things like this are called. :pinch:

But if this is the reflection of the usership I'll never ever wonder anymore why half of the mods want to make your female Dragonborn look like some half nude kindergarten welp with the breast size of Chelsea Charms and the male ones like some watered down Final Fantasy toy boys. :laugh:

But seriously... I never thought that the female percentage and my own age range would be so small. o_O Edited August 3, 2015 by EMS60

I'm guessing that the female users decided to simply not fill out the survey because Nexus is definitely chock full of awesome ladies.

Please split the armor and weapons categories into "Light or Heavy" and the weapons category into one-handed, two-handed, daggers and ranged.

As for Nexus, it is the shinning star of game sites in my opinion.

Well Roguespear you hit that spot on!
Maybe there should be a survey for how many people hate Steam?
It could start with a -5 to +5, There should be no reason it needs a + but hey each to their own :)

jim_uk wrote: That gender ratio is a shock, also the genders add up to 101%.

BlindJudge wrote: Hey Jim,

The actual female percentage is 8.593%, so has been rounded up.

Quite interesting though hey :)

jim_uk wrote: I would have thought 25%+ I won't suggest that women tend to make more noise than men making it feel like there are more of them, that would be wrong. :D

SydneyB wrote: Yes, very interesting, Judge :) I didn't thought there were so few of us around ...

And congratulations on the results :)

DuskDweller wrote: Keep in mind that's a statistics, the percentage is relative to the number of people taking the survey, there could be 50% of female Nexus users but they don't give a damn about taking surveys...
Or on the other hand there could be 0.1% of female Nexus users, but they all took the survey. so there seems to be more of them.

GePalladium wrote: Jim is right... women are in the Nexus. Few, but here and "noisy". Would be interesting to have the statistic "mod autor per sexe". Just curious. I bet the percentage for women will increase. That could explain the "noise" x) *pardon my french*
Edit: even if what DuskDweller said about statistics is completly true.

Yea i could not believe either,it was surprising for me as well,but honestly as long as the community stays at it is i am very happy about it :)As well gratz on the results :)

I thought the same about women, pretending to be male.

I must be one of the 50% females :P but it was the winning thing that made me skip it quickly.

Well if you run it offline it' s like it isn't even there, it doesn't use that many resources
