This thread is not for discussing the way things should be, just the way you will play the game.

There are no cheap tactics, only good ones.
Don't be afraid to take a chance, your skill will help the dice roll in your favor.
Be polite. Be efficient. Have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
i'm male irl but i'll try both ways anyway. Probably will use different genders and different specs on each to play the game more, even if its possible to respec.
I don't feel there is anything inherently wrong with someone playing cross-gender, but it's not for me. I had a female priest in WoW (I'm male) for awhile that never got beyond 25 because I never really got into it -- the immersion was completely ruined; I was constantly pulled out and reminded I was playing again.
Plus checking out "my" cleavage one time really weirded me out.
I'm a male and role a Male class as much as I can. I've tried making a Female toon in the past and didn't really like it, it seemed to draw too much attention (this was WoW though, where supercharged testosterone males run wild).
:necro:Really? Hmm. My female characters never drew a lot of attention on the server I played on.
It's pretty obvious that most people male or female will inevatbly try both of them.
The real question is which one are you going to try out first O.o
(I voted Female IRL and in the game)
Having two older brothers who liked Diablo, D2, and LoD, I usually ended up picking the characters they didn't, and they happened to be the girls. I think I'm just used to it by now. Plus, I haven't played WoW or other similar games too much, so I'm not really used to having much of a choice. Perhaps I'll make a male or two, but I'll probably start off with a female.

It really depends on the class i pick, i usually go for a female char if the class is magic orientated
and i pick a male one when its all about chopping things to bits.

I love checking out my own cleavage, it's the best... then again, I also had a male in WOW that had some killer hotpants.
I do not mean an unnatural calmness.

That's what happens when you get emotes.

Roflmao, there's always going to be emotes. Check out USEast battle.net and join either the sex or sex2 channel, its a chat channel of torture
