Good luck on getting that started, but not interested.

Just a point to add....this game is generally played by 12-20 yr old hetrosexual males, so you may be barking up the wrong tree (no pun intended). There are a lot of girls/women too, and plenty of people older than 20+, me included.

Generally suggests the majority, and plenty means more than a few. I would say that 60-70% (approx) of the populus are teenage boys/men. And that 90%+ of the populus are boys/men in general. I'd like to think that there are a lot of "old timers" out there and many "girls/women" too. These are not "hard" facts though, just my impression from people I've teamed with.

No offence, Claws, because the gaming community as a whole I suppose is predominantly male... but assuming that they're all straight is... well, massively inaccurate.

Although I think it's a little redundant having an LGBT SG (just my opinion, so don't all scream at me), if it's something that people want to do, then go for it. To be perfectly honest, you would never see a purely [censored] superteam in any comic series, since all comics portray the equality of both hetrosexual and homosexual characters. For example - X-Men had Colussus and Beast, who were, in one dimension or another, [censored]. However, the more famous [censored] characters are Northstar, from Alpha Flight, and also Phyla Vell, the latest Captain Marvel, and now the newest Quasar, a heroine, and lesbian, in the new Annihilation: Conquest series. Also, don't overlook both Hulkling and Wiccan from the Young Avengers, who portrayed [censored] teens / superheroes. And one of the Runaways too.

My point? That just like real life, [censored] people work alongside straight people without needing a ghetto for themselves. Granted, LGBT support groups are useful in reality, but in game, why would such a group be necessary?

As a happily out, and certainly proud [censored] man, that has been playing CoH for almost two years of game time (registered first in Feb '05), I must say that I've never had any problems with people in game, and I've certainly found a large percentage of players are in fact [censored].

When I was just a low level, I met one of my closest in-game friends in the Hollows. From the moment we teamed up, we bonded, and have always been a part of the same SG (although he now has quite a few toons, to my one blaster!). He helped me form my original SG, with my then long-term boyfriend, who I lived with at the time, who had also hopped on the CoH bandwagon. The SG certainly wasn't '[censored]' - it was just that the three of us were. The next two recruits, friends of ours in game, joined up - one straight, one [censored]. Teamed missions were fun, and the straight player had no problem with being 'outnumbered' - a fact I am still proud of him for, and happy that he has brought a new toon back to the new rendition of our SG.

Since I graduated from Uni back in July, and re-made SG (now 'The New Guardians') when I found that I had time again, I found that once again, [censored] players were present. Myself, two of my ex's from my Uni (who get along great), one of my closest friends from home, and a fantastic player that I met whilst patrolling, and worked out was [censored] simply based on the level of coordination of his outfit! Add that to those that have returned to the SG over the last few months - and I'd say you had about a 50/50 split of [censored] and straight players, all getting long, all playing without gripe or grudge, and generally accepting each other.

So - a need for an LGBT SG? I don't believe so - but good luck if you do, and yeah, I'll be there to support you.

However - a predominantly straight, male game? Heck no.

- - - -

Oh, and for the record... censoring 'g a y', but not lesbian or homosexual... now THAT'S offensive.

If i read the OP correctly it mentions, heores not players. The post you warned Eiceman was about homosexual players not characters. Also there's The Pride in the Union which is a nice SG, i had several toons in it (actually always one but keep changing it, because playing a homosexual character in a homosexual SG doesn't polish my creativity) and have a very good friend in it.

So in short, good luck with your SG. I hope you can find people to join your merry band.

By the length of your response Winter Flare, I may have struck a nerve. I didn't mean to cause either you or any other homosexual person any offence, I would like to think that I am very open minded, and not prejudiced in anyway. If I did offend you in anyway, then I wholeheartily apologise for this.

I made an assumption regarding the player database, which has no fact attached to it, just my impression. I am more than happy to share Paragon City with people of any race, sex.ual persuasion, creed or mentality. The community benefits from all minorities, which in turn adds to the game playing experience in a very rich manner.

It's cool, Claws, you didn't hit a nerve - you simply gave me a chance to vent a bit, which was nice.

As for the whole homosexual player / character confusion - I think you'll find that the best SGs have a mix of both - in the same way teams work well with a good balance, so do groups of players!

Besides - who else are you going to come to about costume coordination? *Decides to set up a desk in ICON*
