By the term "g-a-y" you're referring to homosexuality, right?
I personally haven't seen any "g-a-y" SG's on Defiant or Union. The other two EU servers are a French and German server so I've never played on them.
I'd personally recommend you found your own SG and pick up invites ; because I have been playing for 42 months and not seen any "g-a-y" SG's.
Used to be some GLB sgs but you have to be carefull with what your supergroup is called since some people might take offense to it [hence why the word is on the filter list].

Oh come on now, really?
Is there anyway of making yourself stand out more than creating a SG stating your sexual preference?
By which I mean: Do expect for homophobes to flame you because of your SG's name.
Hidden, you've definately got a positive attitude...
unfortunately i have to partly agree with hidden although most of the people i know are completely open about other peoples sexuality, it is probably not best to openly advertise it
you will end up attracting bigots who just want to find someone to insult,
of course this is just some friendly advice 
well anyway i hope you find an a friendly SG and some good friends online and above all enjoy 
I also 'partly' agree with Hidden, but I just felt that he could have been more friendly whilst stating his point.
Besides, there's always gonna be idiots out there insulting people. If the problem ever occurs towards Fayth then he can easily use the global ignore feature
People don't go about advertising heterosexual pride through cities flashing their wares and so on and so I don't get it with homosexuals who do that.
I've got friends who are L, G and B in RL and they're all straight acting so that you wouldn't know unless ya ask them.
The server is cross continental, people of all ages could play at all hours and so as long as things are decent everything is fine.
Why anyone needs to make a social, sexual statement in a computer game though is beyond me. Is the game a pulling tool? Do you find that straight players run away? I've known a G person who led a successful and largish SG of mainly straight ppl and now they're happily married to a woman, go figure.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

Unfortunately there are and always will be some people who are just too immature for their own good. They might not state hatred/be vocal about it initially but one tiny messup on the players part and those people are onto the person like a vulture stating its because of their sexual pref that they cant play properly.
VERY stupid i know, but its the world we live in. BTW when i said i think some people might take offence to it, i meant G/B/L players. Remember a few years ago there was a lot of fuss over whether it should be allowed and people were being felt like they were being labelled. If you feel like you can make it work though then go ahead and good luck to you
I'ld be happy to offer my sg as a coalition so you could use the tpers in there until yours is up and running too.
@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!
I know an SG, I heard Super Union recruit several G/B/L Members, give a tell to one of their leaders. Think they are @Rent and @global handle.
Are there any half Continental, half British, single white, male, promiscuously hetrosexual SGs out there?
If not could I join the [censored] one please if you start it? Just for the chat.

What if the person wanting to start the LGBT SG is straight-acting? That's a bit of a stereotype there. Well... I took it as one.

You guys missed the Straight Pride Parade? You stand at the edge of the street watching the music go by because everyone knows straight people don't dance. Rather than hugging you occasionally shake hands with your fellow party-goers to show appropriate affection.
Until you get locked drunk then you dance like a punchdrunk stilt-walker and hug everyone in range telling them "you's my besht friend eva"
Sterotypes are fun.

What about Mardi Gras? lawl
@Rooks
"You should come inside the box... Then you'll know what I mean."
Mardi Gras isn't about straight pride. To me it'll be about time of work and an excuse to get drunk...like I need one.

Awesome Thread.

Feels like a huge assumption has been made here! Just because someone wants to join a LGB supergroup doesn't necessarily mean the group is blatently advertising themselves as LGBT in the groups name??
Being a member of the LGB community myself I can completely understand why someone would be interested in joining an LGB or an LGB friendly SG, there are some complete bigots in this game which I've been a victim of or have heard about.
If I knew of a LGB supergroup I would recommend them, but unfortunately I don't know much about the other SG groups on the server outside of my own (GGRRR, who I am "out" in and we don't tolerate any bigotry).
Although I did see a SG called 'Friends of Dorothy' which is a [censored] referrence but I haven't really seen them around recently and dont know much about them

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.. ......*deep breath*.......hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahah aha
Why did you have to put "because I have been playing for 42 months" in bold? There's nothing funny about it.
This is the reason as to why I left UV. It's MOSTLY full of idiots.
This thread is awesome.

Late response, sorry. But yes, it's the people who go around screaming 'I'm 'this' way inclined' the give the rest of us a stereotypical name, same thing with being camp. Just makes people feel like they're forced away from you, and splitting yourself from society even more. But anyhow, goodluck if you do make one.
OK personally i find this thread a little offensive
1/ the term g-a-y being censored in the first place. I'm g-a-y yet I have to have the way I describe my sexuality in game and on this board, hidden or distorted. Do straight people have the way they describe their sexuality censored or hidden no they don't. I know ppl mean well by saying they are protecting me from bigots but trying to pretend I don't exist is even more insulting than any words from a bigot.
2/ why should g-a-y ppl have to advertise their sexuality? because straight ppl flaunt their sexuality all the time in books in films in life in general and in this game. There are loads of references to straight sexuality in this game but not 1 to homosexuals but then may g-a-y ppl cant be heroes? well at least in Paragon anyway.
By the way i have a g_a-y sg and vg but its just for my alts some of the alts are g-a-y by the way lol.
Hello are there any g-a-y supergroups on the european servers?
i know the US servers have Rainbow Alpha Force etc. are there any on the eu servers? if so which server? id like to join a g-a-y supergroup!
(also the word g-a-y is censored?)
