    I just bought my xb1 a few days ago and started with ESO.
    I love social games, and love running around in a good team, but had to leave 2-4 clans yesterday, because guys were screaming in clan chat, when they realized Im not a male gamer.
    This is strange.
    I have been playing in many clans in other games, and most of my friends are male, so what is going on here? :smile:
    I only found 1 good clan with mature people, but we are in different time zone, others are don't speak or acting like kids.
    Game is good.
    I would stay and play....but social part..hmmmm :)

    LOL, that is weird that people behave that way. I know many girls-gamers.

    You just have to find a clan with more mature people :)!

    good luck with that! :)

    Sounds like they're overcompensating for their own inferiority complex. Their loss, forget those halfwits, good riddance to bad rubbish.

    As for the strange screaming that will be all those strange new hormones kicking in. I hope they enjoy their acne.

    i found a lovely mature 18+ guild on PS4 great banta and ever so friendly and helpful, different time zones, girls and guys. They do exist, and forums is probably the best way to find them with no in game guild recruiting system. hope you find one for you, good luck.

We should have fought for our village and not have backed down, with our tail between our legs. Now my home village is in shambles, the houses burning, the invaders feasting.I swear every day to Shor that after Molag Bal has been defeated, I will hunt down the invaders and restore peace in Bleakrock and drink my mead with my friends at the market place".PC-EU

    I've seen some nasty crap on PC in text chat, especially in the starter zones. If I had had to listen to it on console I'd have probably not played more than a week and switched to another (offline) game. My hat's off to you for sticking it out.

    The entitled sexist male gamer culture idiots are a minority, albeit a very loud one. There are lots of mature, polite folks in gaming land and you'll find them.

    Consoles are usually bought for and played on by children and young adults (and I use that last term loosely). Therefor the chat you see/hear is going to reflect that overwhelming lack of maturity of the players.

    As someone else posted earlier, look in the guild recruitment section of these forums and search for a guild advertising as a Mature/Adult guild. I think you'll have better luck that way.

    Good luck, and good gaming!


    PS... Keep kicking the boys butts. They need it. Badly.

    Maturity is not necessarily measured by age, but one can refer to even an adult as a kid for their behavior. After all, it is maturity that makes you an adult and not your age. I myself choose to play this game on console as a preference instead of just because my PC couldn't handle it and I am about to hit 30. Also, unfortunately, "kicking their butts" in a game will not change them. These kids intentionally act so in a game because they have issues in real life that require them vent, and others are just plain stupid. It is always nice to see mature games in this day and age for this very reason and I hope someday the childish facades will disappear entirely!

    That really sucks. I've been told that console has more kids whereas pc is mostly older gamers. But it doesn't help to tell you to go to pc when you just bought an Xbox. Some are immature but still some are just plain jerks that want an exlusive boys club cause they were denied a date to the prom or something so if u use vc on pc you're still likely to get the same at some point, just maybe a little less of it. Solution to your problem isn't easy but I do hope you will find a guild that is more mature and accepting. They are out there. I can offer you a few that I know are good if your interested.

    We have a guild bank too, and if you donate some bits here and there you eventually get access to the bank and you can take what you like to level up and such.

    Have a look on this forum if you want to know a bit more :)

    Ofc there is a time and place for that.

    Seriously though, OP, the console world is very full of very young... and surprisingly old... jerks. I'm not doggin consoles, its not their fault they attract those kinds of people. But, I did literally rage quit COD. As in haven't played again and I used to play it a lot. Was just tired of the little children screaming in my ear... by that I mean adults too... lol!

    Voice chat does have Area Chat, Group Chat (if in a group), and a Guild Chat Channel plus additional channels for every 20 members the guild has, not to mention the Guild Officer Chat Channel. If that doesn't quite work you also have the console's network party chat feature.

    So can you block/turn off area chat? If so, it would seem joining a social guild or two and keeping the area chat off might help the OP get passed some of the disappointment with the less than desirable exchanges.

    I myself keep Area Chat off almost all the time, but not just for the reasons OP is concerned over but also some potential stability issues with game performance, such as crashes and the like. I only turn it on if I happen to want to listen to the locals in Rawl'kha or anyone nearby in Cyrodiil lol but it doesn't always work in Cyrodiil...

    I agree. I don't understand the whole console war thing.

    We ALL love ESO, we wouldn't be here if we didn't! I don't get why we can't just all talk about what we're here for instead of insulting a whole community of people for no reason.

    The sad thing is a lot of people don't even realise that they're doing anything wrong.

    Do you people like it when people from different religions come to your door and start preaching? Because I sure don't. And I'm sick of both PC AND Ps4 users doing the exact same thing. Anyone who plays on Xbox One, or any platform for that matter.. does so BECAUSE THEY LOVE THAT PLATFORM. What use is there of telling them to join another platform when they're happy as they are.

    (Though I do wish they would add text chat, Smartglass is a great way to do that!)

    Uh... not sure I follow on PS4's end? I could just not be noticing but I don't think I've seen anyone say anything like "get on PS4 everything else sucks" but I can say for sure I play on PS4 and in no way condone the whole "Master Race" bit at all from any side. I will say that Xbox does have a bit of a rep though if ya get my meaning lol
