    Red face I am PROUD of who I am.

    I'm not exactly sure who if any members (aside from a very select few) that are "open" about their orientation. I've come to the conclusion some people are still ignorant about the subject, and may or may not bash on us. I've seen some of this happen in game. I haven't seen it on forums as much. So anyways, this thread is a "coming out" thread if you will. And I'm more than happy to be open about it seeing how I've had few forumers ask me in game lol yes I'm gay, and no the question doesn't bother me . BUT at times it does bother me that people say "that's so gay." Just a reminder that gay people like myself do exist and are or could be actively involved in forums and in game. Watch your words is all I'm asking not just for myself but for those who might find it hard to be gay in a gamers community where most are straight. We are all equals, and would like to be treated as such. Remember keep it P.L.U.R. Peace Love Unity Respect (and Responsibility). If any other member(s) are willing to post that they are secure and open about it feel free to post, I'd like to get to know more than just the 2 or 3 I already do know lol

    btw I understand some people don't agree with our preference, so if that's your case don't bother posting anything hateful...

    Don't worry about it I know I'll always be your friend no matter what. Some people will be judgemental but you have to push past it. Myself being a Christian am not supposed to support it, but I don't hate it either.

    If anyone ever "bullies" you in-game, it is bannable. So make sure you report it.

    I think anyone has the slip of the tounge sometimes, so you can't always prevent it. But if someone is purposely doing it to bother you, thats wrong.

    Hmmmmm should be like the military....don't ask don't tell... This has nothing to do with the game IMO and you should probably keep your personal life to yourself....just my 2 cents

    I'm straight, with both straight and gay friends. Some like girls, some like guys. I have female friends that find me attractive, but it's a friend thing between us in the end of the day. I have male friends that find me attractive, and I don't treat them any different. Gay guys are funny as hell, they're always full of life, they're more understanding through emotional issues than my straight male friends, but I can have as good of times with them as my straight male friends.

    Come on now, it's 2012. Get with the timessssssssss. I believe in God and have a Christian family, but I also believe in love and all of its forms.

    I know what you mean but it is more of an awareness thread. And even the military got rid of the "Don't ask, don't tell" rule. I'm just simply saying there are rude comments made in-game if you haven't seen any you must be afk, yes like moth said at times it can't be avoided, even I say it, but it's to show awareness of the issue. Come on we're not living in the age of cavemen and dinosaurs...

    Hey, I totally respect that and wow, that took some courage to write, I'd be proud too if I was u xD but the thing when people say "oh that's gay" I believe there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, it's like a completely different context, like years ago when the term 'gay' meant happy, words change to have different meanings, and using the word in a different context shouldn't really be seen as wrong.
    But dude, be proud haha, u must feel so BIG right now. I mean if ur gay, then ur gay, I see no reason why it should be hidden. And no matter what, ur still a great friend xD
    Nothing related to any players or drug references because they already got me into trouble

    lol...I mean it's ok sure but it was an example compared to some crazy stuff I've seen lol as in a hateful sort of way...and come on honestly it was much harder coming out to my family and friends O.O but to fellow gamers if it changes your (IN GENERAL) point of view of who I am then let it, but I act no different either way haha.
