GamerchiX was founded in 2006 by myself, Christa Phillips and Chloe Brown. This group is for female gamers who want to find others who share their hobby.

Online gaming can be extremely intimidating - Those in the group can find others to game with who won't treat them differently during multiplayer matches. It's also a great place for girls who are curious about gaming to check it out in a less heated environment.

There are now over 9000 members in the group.
