Fields of Battle……
Fighting against anti social and racist behaviours in public was always going to be an ongoing battle. The “theaters of battle” have been until the emergence of electronic gaming were restricted to mainly fileds and courts, accessible to the general public’s view. However with change and progress there will always be growing pains, and most agree that when it comes to electronic gaming that diversity and sexism rule the day in some major populated games.
Even in my fantasy world engagements I find myself being attacked and just accepted it before as just a price to pay an entrance fee so to speak, but it does get old every time now dialogue and expressions turn to anti social, racist, sexual preference, LGBTQ rants by immature thumb jockeys….
I have to pretend to be a man to get along in online gaming circles and I use different avatars to make things go smoother.
General Barca Foundation’s marching orders have been adapted to now encompass electronic gaming as a front to wage “battle” using campaigns and partnering with ruling organizations and studio makers to make playing enjoyable for all well adjusted players.
The numbers of organizations who are waging battle in the arena with us are a legion of defenders bringing feedback to game developers, event organizers, hosting platforms, and whomever will listen to their experiences and why changes need to be made.
