I was wearing the valley spikey hair cause I genuinely like it and had this girl follow me through my whole cabdle run while she spammed the kissing emote. I didn't mind it at first, I thought it was funny. Then at the end I placed a table down to chat and she introduced herself (that's how I know it was a girl). So I introduced myself too. She then proceeded to get mad at me for being a girl and dressing up as a guy to "catfish people". Girl, this is a game about pyromaniac friendly flying blob of lights, it's not tinder.
"Piromaniac" 😂 I love how so many people on Sky wear whatever they like without caring about gender, it's so refreshing from games where you have to choose a body type ☺
@Radioactive Light You mean in the clothes? Some haircuts look pretty androgenous, but yeah, it's annoying that so many of them are associated to genders. Sadly that can't really be helped society is just like that 😓 As for games where you have to pick, I wish there was a more vague-looking option at the very least. There are so many games where, when given the choice, I would pick a child as my character just so there wouldn't be as much gender distinction Edit: what I say at the end is because I'm nonbinary, and mostly unrelated to the whole conversation now that I think about it lol
every community has this type of kids, they are pretty rare in sky tho so we should be proud :D the sky:cotl community has to be the nicest one i ever came across. and i am very happy i take part of it.
@@santanizm truee Sky is the most wholesome community I’ve ever been in >v< I guess that’s the reason why I feel more angry when I see people like that..
Well, those types of people won't last anyways, they'll get bored and leave the game, never ever playing it again cuz they didn't got what they thought they'll get. So it's safe to say that those types of players are very rare to come across with.
One time I met a female moth. She friended me. We talked for literally 30 mins and then my friend joined. We all sat at a table to chat and then this moth goes "you are my boyfriend nico" and i was like 😀huh. She told me she thought it was a dating game and since I lit her up and accepted her friend request we were dating. Weird situation, but I think she just misunderstood what the game was about.
@@kiporaan If you do the proper research on it, maybe. She was 16 and I was 19, so she probably had more heavy influence of social media since on tiktok and douyin there is a lot of sky videos that show relationships. It's an easy misunderstanding
Every time I meet on i would say “I’m a girl” and when they ask for my other social media i would say “i like girls” it’s funny seeing them panic tho LOL
I just imagine how sad those people must be for trying to date in a family friendly, anonymous, gender neutral game about friendship. It is just too hilarious to me.
I saw some people in here (in this comment section) mention some tiktoker. I think the tiktoker posted sky videos of people being in relationships or something
Because , china and Korea people play sky with their Bf&Gf , also they post dating scene on TikTok or RU-vid or insta or any social to promote or show that this game is good also can be a dating game LOL 🤣🤣🤣
@@sijorojasjrchannel5340 My view is this: if you're going to use the platform for dating and post videos about it online, just make a disclaimer online that this game is not specifically for dating purposes.
Tbh I always help moth when they confused about this game. I will accept their candle and teach them how to play this game. But If I found moth like this, I probably will feed them to krill 💀
@@idkwhattonamemyself9326 Wasteland would be the best option. Eden is also dangerous, but flight difficulties will make it hard to guide this "nice player" to the krill-san or other dangerous places🤔
Lmao why are y’all reacting like that 💀 no that comment wasn’t for me and I never said that. I’m just correcting a mistake. Not for me but for EVERYONE, that style is called feminine. This is feminine hair, not "girl hair". Boys and nb people can wear it too. And "idk tbh"; asking me to go cry about is not only uncalled for and uselessly rude, but it is extremely immature. Are you proud of being like that? If you tried to hurt me, that didn’t work, but it’s still sad. Why are you acting triggered? Don’t tell me you’re not or you wouldn’t have answered that We can talk like adults, right people? 😁 (And genuinely, what part is so hard to understand in my comment?)
I remember once someone telling me my hair was a boys hair so I shouldn’t wear, I just said so I like it. Even asked if I was married and had any sons yet, figured it was a cultural thing 😅 Edit: I don’t talk to him anymore, he kept saying he missed me when we barely knew each other and always bragged how smart everyone says he is.
One of my friends irl turned out to be like this guy online. He asked for my number and then was super creepy and pushy it was something no one should ever go through. Thanks for teaching these dumb players a lesson it's 👌😂
I think "dumb moths" is a misnomer because not every moth behaves that way. And there are even 'veterans' who behave this way. This is personal behavior, not moth specific.
One time I befriended another vet on Sky, and we had fun exploring and stuff together. Good times. Eventually they introduced me to another player who they said was their gf. Cool. Cuz they asked, I had told them I'm a woman, and we were all adults. We hung out in Sky a couple weeks before they asked for my insta. I thought ok, I don't post anything there anyway. Soon after they asked me IN GAME if I wanted to travel to have a threesome with them. F***. NO. I immediately blocked them on both Sky and Insta and I didn't accept any new friend requests after that. Sky stopped being fun when it seemed like the majority of players were suddenly either just in it to grind/collect cosmetics, or were straight up pervs. Most of the other vets I knew stopped playing. TGC started focusing just on paid purchases and stressful events. I haven't played in a while, which is sad cuz I miss how innocent and beautiful Sky once was to me.
@@pogpogpurinn Personally I like to keep gender neutrality. But, I like to lean a bit towards the masculine side. The only thing is, as a person who likes long hair styles, I guess I'm asking for the confusion, right? Haha
Yeah I mean why not. Its not like they know who you are. So you have nothing to lose talking to them. The only problem I find is that people that I talk to are either too young for me to feel comfortable or are east Asian so there's a cultural barrier
I get nervous talking to new players because like the reply above said, most players I’ve met come from some part of Asia and their English is a little rusty. I don’t have a translator on my keyboard so it’s just a virtual social anxiety for me. That won’t stop me from helping moths tho- 😭
Im a new player and get so nervous talking to people. I tried once and didnt know what to say, so we just ended up saying hi to each other then they left
@@Teriiiyakiii Most of the time I just met japanese or chinese people so it's difficult for me to get friends that I can actually talk to :( The only English speaking friend I have is my sister xp
This happened awhile ago with me, this moth randomly friended me and said I love you and when I told him I wasn't a girl he refused to think that I was a boy and every night I would get on sky he would try to get me to a chat table or a bench. :/
@@0hcyris I have a non-binary transmasc friend that is aro-ace and a boy harassed them for many days. They told him that they weren’t interested in love or s*x in any way and just wanted friends. The guy pretended to be ok with it then started to ask for their social media to "exchange face pics" (🤡) and he said he would wait for them to be ready to be in a relationship. I met the guy, and he fucking asked my friend (the one he was harassing) to tell me he thought I was "hot" 😃 I didn’t say anything to the guy and he litteraly knew nothing about me, wasn’t even sure of my gender
@@kiporaan there are creeps everywhere :( I've seen people like that more than I can count, and I always just ditch em the first red flag I see lol I don't even bother explaining about sexuality to folks like that because I go to sky to relax, not play tinder 😂
I once helped a struggling moth through wasteland then when we got to Vault we finally spoke only for them to be one of these guys! 😐 I was so annoyed I wasted my energy on a pervy moth
Goddd that would be crazy disappointing 😬 I have a general rule of not friending anyone unless they engage & emote well so for something like that to happen sounds soooo upsetting 😓
And this is why I never talk to most people I have friended, simple gestures are enough ^^. Have a friend who helped me get through that tedious forest quest just cause I draged them there. Then we exchanged gifts, bow and waved. Cutest interactions I've had in game
I hate the most is a moth did not follow you , instead they go head on , especially at Wasteland! that make you lost 3 or more WL! me got lost 12 WL to save them! 😡😡😡
I met this really nice person on this game once. Even though they spoke a different language they'd use Google translate just to talk to me. But when they asked me my gender and I told them, they just ghosted me.
Dude I play this with my wife and there's so many times we meet a new friend, it's a girl and they totally ignore my wife (like don't even friend her) and then follow me around, unlock hug and want to chat a bunch. She gets mad after awhile and I politely say goodbye then we leave.. were adults btw lol it happens on both ends girls are just much more subtle and smooth Edit: just to add we also have girls and guys we're both friends with and like hanging out with. Most people are cool on sky, like 90% I would say
i have a friend older than me on sky, once i unlocked the chat with a moth, she ignored my friend and told me " i love you" she held my hand and tried to take me away from her, i have never seen a moth fly so fast, until she tried to take me to the desert, when we approached the portal i told her i didn't even know her and let her go, she went to the lake and played sad and left the game lol
I don't play Sky anymore but when I did I always thought of it as a place to get away from all the negativity because everyone in the game was nice or just neutral, this makes me sad and uncomfortable I'm glad I never met anyone like this while playing the game
Imma be honest as a woman who plays this game it’s hilarious to meet people like these, I always prank on em in the funniest ways around my friends 💪🏻😂
I started getting a bit of anxiety over this a while ago. I'm a female and identify as a woman, but I started to notice that I made my avatar look like a guy (the wounded shoulder outfit and BOTW Link hair) and I didn't wanna risk people getting mad at me, so I tried to make myself look more like a girl by wearing a bow on my neck and switching to the tiptoeing tea woman's dress 😑 Screw this, I'mma wear whatever the heck I want from now on 😭
I always wear the plauge doctor mask or any bird mask. I have met some players that ask if I'm a boy or girl, I reply with "No im a bird" then I just fly away
This reminds me of that time I met a ex freind who would join me on my candle runs everytime and it was fine but they always wanted me to meet their friends but her friends didn't like me even tho I never met them and I was thinking in my head "ok :') I guess I'll leave" and when I was alone and doing obs my ex friend told me they had something to tell me and I was freaking out I dunno why, and then the next day she said "I like you" and my heart Dropped into my booty cuz I'm gay and don't want to date anyone, so I told her I was gay then she got mad at me and I didn't know what to do but block her but then her friend got mad at me and demanded me to unblock her and I did but then I blocked both of them again and I cried Honestly idk but I just wanted to share my experience and I hope that never happens again cuz now I'm scared to make new friend's :',) Edit: it fuking happened again, I didn't block them but it was awkward and now I don't want to see them again
They are pretty much toxic people,you said you didnt like her and she and her friends should respect that you don’t have To be sad over it you didn’t do anything wrong at all. I hope you’ll meet better people in the game and have fun :D
One time, on the first day of playing Sky actually, this one person came up to me and started spamming the kiss emote. I thought it was funny, and they led me to the bench at the little pond in front of the Elder's Castle in the Prairie. They told me I was cute, and I pretty much instantly just went "okay it's one of *these* people.... ugh. Lemme annoy them a bit." And so I started talking about where I'm from and asking questions about their day and then talking about my dog. Never told them my gender, literally just went "it's -21 celsius in Finland, prolly not that cold in Japan is it?" Since they told me they were Japanese... they seemed to be disappoinred when I told them that I was from Finland. Eventually they left, sqying that they were going to the sea.
it's so funny yet so scary what could've happened- the fact that he was only searching for girls and asked for facebook, that's just screams creepy old man ngl 😐 also who tf asks "are u a girl" mf saying "I get no bitches absolutely 0 play"
I once talked with a Japanese player at prairie. I'm female and was wearing Seashell Collector's hair(you know the round one, aka so-called 'ikemen hair' or smth). She told me that it's her first time to talk with a 'boy' like me bcs every time she meets someone it's always been girls. Yep, she just thought that I'm a boy just bcs I was wearing ikemen hair. And as soon as I told her I'm a girl, she just disappeared with her bench props. Damn, it's the SKY COTL. You shouldn't just assume someone else's sex/gender by their outfits. Honestly? I personally don't like ppl talking ikemen/ikejou for that matter. Short hair is short hair, pants are pants, skirts are skirts... They're not boy fashion or girl fashion. I'm so tired of this heterocentric binary division.
@@Mentaclink I never met them but I actually want to troll them so I want to try, what should I wear to make them talk to me? I got some feminine looking stuff but rarely wear them because I made a masculine looking combo that I love to wear.
I had a friend who had multiple female friends. One time him and I were playing together and then one of his female friend tp to him. Bruh let me tell ya, she instantly started honking, angry emote, and stomping at me. Idc how I dress myself one day I’m a girl the other I’m a guy and on that day I was dressed as a girl. It was funny actually, idk how girls can get jealous over someone they’ve never met before
Meanwhile, I've been playing for 1 and a half year and never met a creep....actually I've been more afraid of people thinking I'm the creep. I don't talk with others that much though but sometimes the question of age comes up. Usually when I have played with them a.long time, guiding them and used emotes alot. And I just, well....I'm an adult but don't worry, I'm not creep or anything.....which in it's on own sounds creepy too 😅😂
Surprised this moved so slow actually lol. Met a moth in the Hidden Forest social space recently who friended me (also a moth, but slightly less moth-y than this moth), along with a few veterans. Flew around the social space for a bit with us all holding hands, tried to climb up the back of the Prairie temple, and generally just looked lost. One of the veterans lit a candle at the chat bench and talked a bit with the moth, but got up after a minute or two, so I decided to sit down and try and figure out where the moth was trying to take us all. Went through the introductions - he was talking in broken English, but still understandable for the most part. He said his name and that he was a boy, and me, being nonbinary and not sure at the time how many Sky players were accepting of LGBTQ+ people, didn’t say a gender either way (though I was wearing the Pouty Porter’s hair, which others in the past have assumed equals boy). He then said good morning, I think, but he phrased it in a weird way that confused me. It could have been a translation error, but either way, I stopped typing for a moment to try and figure out what he meant. And after the 10-ish seconds that I paused, suddenly out of nowhere, he typed “I love you 😘”, emoji and all. Now, I would have been willing to excuse this as something being mangled in translation, if not for the kissing emoji. I mean, we’d been talking to each other for less than five minutes, and here he was proclaiming his love for me. So obviously this made me very uncomfortable, and in a moment of panic, I just stood up and walked over to the two poor veterans (who have been standing on the side the whole time, doing the dismayed expression more and more the longer we talked), trying to let them know with expressions that I had no clue what this moth’s plan was, while also trying to figure out a way to leave without seeming rude. And that’s when this moth stood up, walked over, and started holding out his hand to me repeatedly. I ignored him, but he was incredibly persistent, following me every step I took around the social space. Eventually I clicked the “no” expression several times, and even then, this moth wouldn’t stop offering his hand. Lying down, pretending to be afk, and the “no” expression again multiple times all failed, he kept offering his hand to me, and eventually I just.. closed the app. Didn’t even go home, just closed it and took a break from the game. He’s since been the main star in a constellation I have that I use to keep friends I may potentially block (which gets a lot of use, actually. Either Sky has too many weird people playing, or I just suck at picking friends… hmm). The only reason I never actually blocked him was because I haven’t seen him online since.
Oh gosh I had this one person who I friended who kept teleporting to me and honking and would attach themself to me (now that I know you can do that I am so much more careful with who I friend) They proceeded to write love confessions and whatnot in chat, it was so uncomfortable. First and only person I blocked. I feel it's important to say: this is why you do not give out any personal information to strangers online. Because you can get into a whole world of trouble if you're not careful. I mean, this case was mostly just annoying, but I had a run-in on instagram once where I am sure the other person would have showed up at my house if they'd known where I live. So be careful everyone!
I helped someone regain their light in the game, and we sat down on a bench. They thanked me for saving them, and then said "I love you" I immediately left
I wanna find one of these adorably silly kids just to tease them and crush their hope of thinking Sky is a dating game. Not in a mean way but in a funny cute way by making light humour
So I was chilling one day going around and I made this friend let’s call him Jeff Bezos (no reason) Well me and Jeff Bezos talked for a bit, and we started to log in to hang out every day, we had fun, I taught him some things about the game and everything was nice and calm and normal. One day I log in and as usual we start talking. Eventually Jeff Bezos tells me he wants to take me somewhere. He takes me to the top of a mountain and says something like “do you want to be something more than friends”. Thinking I have the option to say no, I tell him I already have a girlfriend and i am not looking forwards to dating any man anyways, since I am a lesbian. Jeff Bezos asks me if i have ever been with a man. I tell him I haven’t because I feel no attraction towards men. And Jeff Bezos asks and asks desperately like he’s going to make me break up with my girlfriend and change sexuality that way (no) and it starts to get really annoying. I leave the game and never speak to him again, even though he follows me everywhere. Thank you for listening to my bible
Funny, I have yet to meet someone who treats it like a dating app. I know I sure don't treat it like one. As a side note: When I ask about gender I ask because I tend to say things like, "whats up girly " and I would die of embarrassment if I found out I was talking to boy or someone who identifies as one.
I used to play sky a lot and I had a wonderful friend group until they realized I was a minor. I felt so disgusted by things they had said, I love the game but dislike the players a lot of the time. I feel blessed sometimes when i meet people who aren’t toxic.
Literally played this game with a friend of mine a month ago and I was completely brain dead and had no clue what to do. So she was basically showing me the ropes and just gettin a feel for the game. After my friend left, I tried to meet some friends. *Biggest mistake I made on this game* Everyone just kept on asking me if I was a girl. I’m like, “Bruh. Take a shower.” And they either get pissed or they just abruptly leave. It’s Funne. But it got weird after a couple thousand times… *Don’t think imma get on anytime soon…*
Damn that sucks, I dont really mind whenever I meet a moth I just do everything for them and if they wanna chat we chat, i never get into anything personal cuz it's literally a flying game. And if you're up to play (I'm on switch) I'll fetch you a link to friend me!
Oh that barely happens to me xd its mostly bc of noobs watching those douyin sky marrige videos and fail to realize those ppl do it just for fun or know eachother irl...... if you ever think of playing again i'd love to friend you
I’m sorry toxic players ruined it for you, most people are actually chill, but I get not wanting to play. It makes me sad seeing the community be infested with these ‘sky=tinder’ players. I hope you can at least try to play again, because it is a really beautiful game :).
every time i meet a moth in game and have more than a two second convo with them i panic and end up just wordlessly taking them through the entire game, lights and spirits and all bc im too awkward to actually say anything lmaoo
Gosh i swear there are some "players" literally hunting for a partner and im like.....bruh? Also my skykid wears the hide n seek haircut and yes im a girl in rl, but there was some "expert" who called me bro even if i told them im not a guy 🤣🤣
Calm down, some people call others bro naturally, there are also some women who get angry getting called ma'am or sis, try to understand them. You never know when you can get grilled for mistakenly calling someone something else.
One time this random girl I'm sky tried to make me date her and when I told her no and that I don't even like girls she put on short hair and said "is this better now" these people am I right
I used to play sky a lot and i will be back again soon ( i hope so). I remember all the toxic people there lmao and its funny to look back at it again. One of them was this kid that love to troll people around and made bunch of lies to me and my friends. I havent played since a year ago i think, so im curious how sky's been doing 🍻✨
Meh, we had a good season (Little Prince) followed by a rather mediocre one (Flight) with nice cosmetics. Next season has the potential to be spooky & dangerous as heck- 😅😅😅
I've encountered a good amount of people that light me and sit at the chair and ask me if I'm a girl cause my character looks like one. I'm like "uhh....no?" and they flip out asking me why I look like one and I'm like "I think my character looks cute, what's wrong with that?"
I guided a moth boy from beginning to all the way in Eden and in the end he asked for social media info. After I said no, moth blocked me 😂. At least I got candles out of it and I needed to do Eden anyway that day
ugh I had this happen to me as a moth not even a week into playing and it was a little funny, but mostly creepy. ended up blocking them. not a great experience lol
I mess around with a bunch of different length hairstyles as a girl, luckily haven't met anyone like this yet, but I have encountered people that were very quick to ask about communicating on things like discord when I've known them for a few minutes. If I speak to a friend a lot, I'm happy to share socials to keep in contact with them, but when you've met someone once it's hard to say if you'd be friends in any way other than in game.
I once met a player that was very nice, helped me with the krills and all that, so we became friends and after like 20 minutes he asked me if I was a girl and how old I was. I said I was 18 (which was true) and he started talking about how we couldn't date then because he was just 15 (like... why would I even want that?). So I said I was only into girls anyway and when he read that he was absolutely weird and since then he just ignores me and I am awfully happy about that 😂
ohmygod this was so funny. people like this are so weird lol (ive never met anyone like this despite playing this game for a year but thats because im too shy to talk to people most of the time)
Now that I played for long now, I don’t usually add moffs or accept them 🙂 I just accept requests from my friends friends 🙂. But yeh moth days “oh nice outfit 🤩” *pulls out white candle* 🤣 and those who help me to fix the tree house and in Eden.
Just a gentle reminder that gender is a social construct, which means its something human beings have socially and culturally created, not something that can be defined by our biology. If the gender you've been assigned at birth always, only, and completely matches who you feel you are, thats called being cisgender (the word cis means same) not biological gender. :)
Sat with a moth at Home and the first thing they said was "oi". I was confused so i just said "hello". The moth said "♥️?" (I thought they were asking for a heart trade haha), then proceeded to ask "👩❤️👨? 👩❤️💋👨?"... I ran away
Damn lately I met with a moth at home space and I wanted to talk with them because I thought maybe they need my help. So I lit them and put a table, we both sat and "Are you a girl or a boy?" They asked even before ask my name. So I was suspicious naturally- I said "lmao you didn't even ask my name? Also you were talking about how late it is there, what does it with that topic?" Then they started to talk nasty you know the rest- I was gonna report them but I couldn't find the button, I guess we need to be friends for that or I was just dumb at that moment and couldnt see it 🤦🏻♀️ Anyways if someone asks your gender first, be careful because they might be a perv 🤡🤡🤡 You never know
The report button will be invisible if a player is not your friend, but its still there like on a normal friendship tree. You can click on that invisible button to report them normally. It should be on the right side--the second one iirc.
Stuff like this hurts my soul Especially when the people who try to use this as tinder spam the kissy emote to be flirty and whatever Because I use the kissy emote just to be nice, and now I have people using the “no” motion because they think I’m being weird :(
