    My point is that she didn't make it a requirement that she wanted a female. She used the word prefer meaning not required but wanted. So how can you get upset when people come if they think they got a shot?

    EDIT: One more thing I don't think you're wrong all I'm saying is don't put a sign on the window that says "We prefer cash" and get mad when people try to pay with credit. Preference doesn't indicate requirement.

    I'm pretty sure "I prefer other girls" is used because it's the nice/easy way to say "No guys". I would think it's pretty obvious for people that the person likes other girls but guys tend to answer regardless of whether or not they say "girls preferred" or "girls only". Hoping that maybe they might be the exception.

    You don't see the girls responding to guys who want other guys.

    One, I didn't make up the dictionary I'm only saying what is a fact. The word preference means leaving a door half way closed. This does not mean it is closed so don't be surprised when people try coming in. As for the second part besides the pint that there are like 4 girls in this 776 page thread girls don't need to respond to guys who want other guys they have a pool over hundreds guys have a pool of a few select few.

    edit: weird looking sentence

    If the door is half open that doesn't mean you're actually allowed or wanted in the house. Someone who isnt desperate for money won't rob you. Someone who is desperate will : p.

    Also the pool isn't a select few xD. Girls are here all the time. They are either scared off, not interested in them or quit this.

    This. I also chose a more sensitive wording due to the fact that there have been people in this thread who get their panties in a bunch (again these guys who tend to act chauvinistic by disregarding girls' preferences) when a girl prefers another girl. I've seen someone post about it once or twice, thus I also tried to go for something that wouldn't trigger these types. It's funny because I don't see any guys who state that they prefer females (which, as stated by Jumper, is basically saying please be courteous and respect preference) being called out by @Unsung, yet there's a ton of them. It just happens that a girl who has a preference is the problem, huh?

    I have no issue nor was I trying to call you out I'm sorry if I came off as hostile. All I was trying to say was that by saying preference you leave the possibility so people might try and because of it you get people messaging you. I'm not calling out other people nor am I calling you out I'm just responding to the post you made. I'm not out on a crusade to single you out or something lol.

    In a way it is true preference is not an obligation, yet if someone prefers something as a courtesy, people need to follow what that person preferences is.

    May be a good way to avoid any miscommunication is for the guys to post with a message here instead of sending a friend request, another is for the guys to mention their gender, and for the girls to be more specific. I want just this or till farther notice.
    Agreed. I don't mean to be a smarty pants I was just pointing out why some people might be confused.

    Also @Odstarva
    Any contact info? My discord is Moh#4837 we can talk about these troubling DRK changes over some DF runs :P

    Like I said there have been girls playing male characters with the same description, but those guys follow their preferences (woman in and out of game) and avoid others. They even contacted guys who play female characters thinking they were women cuz those guys left them app vague, too =P

    @magic nap, yes there are more women looking for a partner than the amount that we see. Most women just prefer to read people application and see who might look compatible. Other women tried already and all the guys they contacted were not suitable.
    Let's not forget that, from what I can tell, a girl on a male character has a 1% chance of getting an answer from someone
