Inspired by a discussion I had elsewhere and the article "Women in Games swaps male and female voices to highlight harassment in gaming", how about we start a voice modulation challenge where you have to play at least one online game with a voice modulator to sound like a girl?

I'm curious what the experiences would be like.

Yeah, i could be wrong about the level of awareness, i am a datapoint of one.

The performance part is interesting, but almost irrelevant imo. If the results had been that abusing your teammates improves their performance, it would still be wrong to do it.

I worry the people causing this problem are more likely to take the "abuse == tilt" information and use it to justify their behaviour :(.

A valid concern 😅
