Female gaming isn’t some kind of nebulous concept somewhere out there in the ether of Barbie Horse Adventures and The Sims, it’s everywhere, and this time we’re highlighting some of the coolest experiences on gamerDNA for this edition of the gamerDNA Experience Roundup.

Up first is gamerDNA member BlackkatEcholsle, a World of Warcraft player who talks about a certain class we all know and love in her post entitled Healers.

Please, if you are a healer in any group setting, whether it be pvp, dungeons, or raids please do not waste mana on attacks. You either heal or dps. Nothing makes a group happier then a healer who focuses on heals…

Coming up next is another WoW player, Dhazy, who ruminates on matters involving rocketry and one of the cool in-game item she earned from playing the World of Warcraft trading card game. Here’s an excerpt:

They spew blue fire and smoke out of the back and it has a little evil face painted on both sides of it. Crazy goblins. It makes a FSSSSH noise every time you move if you were idle. It’s noisier on the ground than it is in the air. I personally think it’s cooler than Roflcopters, but only because it’s much harder to get. Every 70 Engineer has a Roflcopter.

To be honest, I personally believe that nothing can beat a Roflcopter, especially when you have awesome images like these:

Anyway, next up we have a snippet from a story from arislyn, who talks about one of Trapper’s favorite games, Tabula Rasa.

Yes, yes. I know that many people do not like Tabula Rasa because of a lack of endgame content. Know what? I don’t care. For starters, I just began playing so I’m not worried about endgame, yet. Secondly, it has lots and lots of aliens that I can shoot. I like that.

I like aliens to shoot. In fact, shooting anything in general is pretty darn awesome. Just check out this crazy looking area, it’s probably got plenty of things to kill!

Now that I’ve got killing on the brain, there isn’t much stopping me from posting this experience from akiraluckystar, who writes about a fun experience in the chainsaw killfest that is Gears of War.

Hiding behind a wall when suddenly an enemy player runs up and hides next to me, disbelief ensued and I even turned to a friend to confirm it was an enemy and I wasn’t seeing things, I didn’t believe someone could be that stupid…

Hey now! That isn’t so nice… Oh well!

Last, but certainly not least, we have have a STELLAR experience post from Pocketwolf entitled Games & Girls. I’m going to warn you, the post is relatively long (especially with respect to modern internet attention spans) but you would be doing yourself a huge injustice if you didn’t read the entire post. Here’s a snippet:

I like to win.  I am very competitive.  This always applies, whether I’m playing a game or taking an exam.  I like to beat people – whether they’re male or female – because I was brought up to achieve highly.  I like to progress, to feel that I’m gaining new skills and learning how best to use them.  I feel rewarded when all of that results in me landing at the top of the scoreboard in a game of TF2, even if it then earns me the inevitable accusations of hacking and aimbotting.

Alright, alright! We’re done this week. Check out next week’s post when we highlight some stories from some of the gamers who happen to have a Y chromosome.
