Don't post in this thread to say "gay gamers are like everyone else, why do they have a special thread?" It is something that has been posted numerous times, and this isn't the place for that discussion. For regular posters, don't quote the trolls. | ||

no one gives a damn if ur gay. ur being gay or not being gay has nothing to do with starcraft or the fact that you play starcraft. a thread title like that, that tries to somehow relate and mesh the two is ridiculous, irrelevant, and simply attempts to sow confusion and controversy. If you'd read the thread a bit you'd realize that a large amount of productive discussion has gone on and your exact point has been argued and refuted. If you don't like the thread then don't post. | ||

No one with more than 3 braincells would blunder into a thread, completely ignoring the OP, never mind the 86 other pages of interesting, relevant discussion and then claim /thread. It's kind of embarrassing. I did have a giggle at the "sow confusion and controversy" bit. Thanks for that. I'm sure the gays of our community would lovingly indulge you should you find a valid statement or question, but until you get done reading the first page, I'd recommend you find another thread for your ignorant outbursts. | ||

A lot of people behave stupidly. And yes of course some straight guys manage too create a problem for them self. That will never change bacuse it is human. I say, if people really cares where their friends (or even worse SC2 practice partners) put their dicks or pussy`s, let them. I dont care, why on earth should I? Why do people create irrellevant problems? Problems that they cant do anything about? Put your energi and focus, on fixing the things you can do something about. Make your life better, not worse. My god, its so stupid that I have to pinch my arm. Now, just some quick things I have to comment on: "Why ........acting gay" Lack of male (or gay) characters/models in media or in social enviorment that they identify themselfs with. A lot of "different" young boys today will see the flameboyant type on TV and assume, this is what I am. "I have never talked to a gay before .........." Yes you have, you just dident know they where gay. "Why are gays more sexual than other people........" Guys are sluts, get over it. (most guys anyways) "...gay dating site...." (Largely male)Bonding is what starcraft/ TL is about you tit. | ||

Do you think gaming is just like any other interest/hobby, or do you find it extra special when someone else games on the same level, with the same (or greater) passion as you do? Also, what would you suggest to someone looking for another like minded individual in an environment that is typically non-face to face contact? Being single sucks. :p | ||

Being single sucks. :p Gaming is a hobby but it does incorporate a wealth of knowledge, history, innovation, community, group-play and differing experiences that a lot of other hobbies don't have. And since it can be seen by members of society as a negative thing (too nerdy, otaku, etc.) makes the passion within the community greater, in my opinion. I've been wanting to date a gamer more in line with what I play as most I've dated have either not played video games at all or are casual gamers. Online dating/conversation/meeting is basically a fact of life these days. You meet many people in person after you've been talking to them online whether through b.net, mmorpgs, forums, facebook, or an online dating site. I would say to be wary and try to be grounded and realistic in talking to someone online. In my history, I used to escape or fill in with my imagination a lot with people I start talking to online. When I was younger and had low self esteem, I played Ragnarok Online (MMORPG) as a female character and created this whole alternate persona for myself and used one of my girl friend's pictures if anyone ever asked. I got sucked into that life and it was really dangerous since I wasn't even being me anymore, and I was more interested in being this girl who got way more attention romantically than I ever did growing up (though in retrospect, it was more that I hadn't come out yet and hadn't had any interactions with a guy or thought that a guy could like me). So that was an extreme example of how you never fully know someone until you see them in person, and once you do, all those notions in your head could change or just be completely wrong. You might see the way they treat you or other people terribly or it could even be something as miniscule as bad hygiene and picking his/her nose in public. That's why, in general, I always try to make an effort of meeting someone within a month of talking to them online or else it's never going to happen and I don't think it also puts a limit on your friendship or potential for a relationship until you do. | ||

Oddly all the people I play SC2 with (to paraphrase the great Day9, my Starcraft Buddies (TM)) are all bi or gay. Which makes our Skype chats interesting, I think  | ||

Being single sucks. :p For me, it's more important than other hobbies. I'm also a musician and make plenty of connections through that, but in the end, I mostly just have that connection with those people (gaming or music) unless they're someone I have other things in common with. Regardless, I do find it special if my girlfriend plays games because that gives us something to do together that I would normally do myself. I'd suggest just talking to a lot of people frequently (online or in person). Put yourself out there. To me, the scariest thing is missing opportunities, not being embarrassed. | ||

Have you experienced any (or a lot of) homophobic slurs used as smack talking in SC2 games? I've definitely come across quite a bit with my teammate saying the usual "gl hf" in the beginning to be responded to by "f--k you f----ts" or things of a similar nature. Was just curious if this is more a current generation thing or if it was also prevalent in SC1 days (I only played against AI or custom games in SC1) and if you experience this in a bunch of other games. I know it's quite prevalent in FPS. I played a 2v2 last night with a friend, where I was just so angered by the crazy smack talking that when our opponents asked us what league we were in, I said "rainbow league" and one opponent was like "great we're playing with f----ts" and I continued not to back down from then on as they asked if I was gay, and I said "very." Needless to say, I really wanted to kick their butts from that moment on and luckily we were victorious. I saved the replay as "pwning homophobes". | ||
