Hey numbnuts, ESO isn't your personal dating site!
It doesn't really bother me. I find it more hilarious that guys have to be so pathetic. Any other people experience this?
No. Cause I only play male characters that dress for function. Men aren't changing their triggers. And a subset of men will ALWAYS react to their triggers. Especially if they have the option of remaining anonymous. It's like racism. But with sexual attraction.
Feel free to disagree. I'm just bringin' the real.
I agree about men having sexual triggers and acting based on them. I don't feel it's like racism though. I believe they are buried way deeper in the dna than that. They go back to actual species survival instincts that can't just be bred or taught of us in a couple decades of gender reassignment education or whatever we're supposed to be learning to be the FOTM acceptable pc person1 -

✭I highly doubt this is true. While people have awkwardly hit on my wife (and me while playing a female character), it doesn’t happen that often. This seems more like you just wanted to share your character and felt you needed an excuse. Not sure why.
This could be a trap to get people to admit genders for stalking purposes.

In response to this and your original thread-starter....
Your character looks like you tried to make it an approximation to your real life self. That character is not outright ugly to people as well.
Combine those 2 initial impressions and you will get attention.
BUT, the more likely reason why you get those messages if that you tend to be around where the type of people that send them like to hang out. Something tells me it is a capital city of the first large city a newbie loads into.
Everyone who has ever played any MMO has had weird encounters with other players. That is what ignore is for and/or they often change appearance to avoid it.
Deal with it using ignore or something or change your appearance if you can't.2 -

✭I have a gal pal in the game who used to have guys fawn over her. One was so obsessed he talked about getting married and having kids and what not. She wasn't interedted in him that way but he just kept pushing and pushing, saying what a great boyfriend he'd be. Finally she told him how it was and suddenly he started acting like a complete ass towards her. Just because she shot down his advances.3 -

really makes you think
She looks very very young - that could be the reason. I also have a really young looking character now (a Breton) but mine has more of a creepy little girl vibe. You'll rescue her from wolves and little red riding hood will knock you dead when you're not looking.
Got 22 characters total... never got propositioned in ESO. The most comments I get are "wow that's a very dark Khajiit".PC-EU0 -
acsquared✭✭✭I keep myself offline at all times, except for like the occasional 30 seconds where I need my status to update. This is for a few reasons.
1) I run guilds and don't like constant whispers
2) I got hit on quite a few times in awkward ways, especially by the RP people. No, I don't want to be your slave, no I don't want you to be my furry companion, I already have a mount, and, to be honest, I'm just here to game.I run The Auction House, The Silk Road, Insert Guild Name Here and RawlMart. Because why not.1 -
