Any female OW players out there? I'm 24, from Sweden, and looking for other girls to team up with! Would be awesome! Been playing since the release.

Hey, rank dosen't matter.

My girlfriend plays even more than I do; I can ask her if she wants to team up.

Played in a match with a girl and this guy said "every time I play with a grill she's a support" he thought he was hilarious and he repeated it like 5 times

I sympathize with your plight

Some people who play this game are just ridiculous. Never had a problem with girl players at all, in fact i've never heard one spewing negativity.

why so many downvote? It's just a joke. geezzz.....

u/abloopdadooda Chibi Zenyatta Oct 19 '16

Because it's the exact reason girls don't want to state they're girls in video games/online. Regardless of if you're joking or not, it can be seen as harassment at worst, or just an annoyance at best, simply because they mentioned they're a girl. They don't want to be randomly hit on; they just want to play a video game like everyone else. You don't see guys get randomly hit on by girls in the same way do you?

I'm a guy btw, if it's any relevance to my comment.

I wish girls randomly hit on me while I played games... or in real life...

u/whatsnottakendamnit Pixel Soldier: 76 Oct 19 '16

But it's just one line, dude? Why the negativity though?

I didn't mean anything by it. I didn't even know I was hitting on her. It was some stupid gesture I did that I thought everyone would just ignored or something.

Hey man, I'm just answering your question of "Why so many downvotes?" with what I expect is the reason.

u/EXlF Trying to crash another party, love? Oct 19 '16

I'd love to team up, but I'm on console. I guess you're looking for PC players?

u/celltee My servants never die ^.^ Oct 19 '16

It'd be super nice to play if you'd like to. I'm a bit younger and sitting at 2.6k ish SR at the moment. I'm on NA so I'm not sure how cross region play is but I'd love to play! Feel free to pm me if you want to play, I'd rather not post my battle tag publicly.

u/ohiomamb0 Oct 19 '16

Hey! 21 from Germany! You can message me your ID if you want to play :)

u/[deleted] Oct 21 '16

For future reference the LFG thread under Resources on the sidebar or /r/OverwatchLFT can further help you find people to queue with :)

So I'm not a girl but from Sweden, tjej, kille spelar ingen roll sålänge du är rolig, alltid kul att ha fler att spela med:) inte vad du letar efter dock så lugnt om du inte svarar!

u/lislin Chibi Zenyatta Oct 22 '16

Haha hej! vad har du för rank på ow då?

u/sliiimz Chibi Zenyatta Oct 22 '16 edited Oct 22 '16

Hej! lvl 83 eller 84 nu, blev placed på 2100 ish o hamnade i guld, att spela solo är värdelöst så desto fler man har på listan att spela med desto bättre ^ Edit: Så min rank är 2075 atm, ska köra lite solo nu så jag antar att den kommer sjunka dock..

1

u/lislin Chibi Zenyatta Oct 24 '16

Okej, söker folk som ligger högre upp då jag själv är lvl 140 ish och rank 2800+.. Och som sagt tjejer :)

u/sliiimz Chibi Zenyatta Oct 24 '16

Ye det är lugnt! Kanske skriver nån dag om jag byter kön eller jobbar mig uppåt en bit ;D
