If it bothers you or you think it's for attention. You're probably the kind of person that group doesn't want to play with.

There are few instances where advertising LBGTQ friendly is required like at a church. There are churches where i live that are and aren't friendly.
This game isn't a church. This game isn't saying if your gay don't play it. Why this keeps coming up is baffling.

Because people do obviously seem to care lol? If no one cared there wouldn't be an issue in the first place. This thread wouldn't exist. Besides, how do you know no one cares? What gives you the authority to speak for everyone? Plenty of posts here give examples of LGBTQ+ members experiences where people did seem to care.

Look at this, one person says it doesn't matter, and you all will not let up on how it does matter and people do care. This is why no one can take you all seriously, you just don't know when to stfu and move on.

No, but as soon as I give my 2 cents about safe space (And not against LGBTQ+ people mind you) I'm being told that I'm straight so I haven't suffered like them and that my opinion doesn't count. So yea, I will take a wild guess and say they ain't that much straight friendly if they assume I am as soon as I disagree slightly with them.

Hey we all wish it didn't matter, I think everyone here could agree on that. But the fact is it does matter to some people, and pretending it doesn't, doesn't make the issue go away.

Glad you prove my point even more by being even more passive-aggressive

The thing Is being homophobic is viewed as a bad thing and I'm pretty sure that even in a non LGBTQ+ friendly GC, anyone who show any kinds of direspectfull behavior will get reported and probably removed from said GC. So Why do we need safe spaces in an era where bullies ain't the norm and ain't tolerated?

Bullies aren't the norm and aren't tolerated? Have you paid attention to politics at all recently in the past 6 years?
