LGBT Linkshell and Free Company Directory

[Latest Update: June 2018:


This thread is a resource for finding an LGBT community group for those who desire it. Hopefully it will prove to be helpful to anyone looking for such groups, especially those who may not yet feel comfortable enough voicing their desire for such a group in a public forum.

I ask people to respect the purpose of this thread and leave the debate out of it, please. If you don't like the topic, feel free to add me to your ignore list and move on. If you love the topic, please don't respond to the trolls since it only serves to get the thread locked.

Please do not post to this thread unless you are adding or updating FC/LS group information. This is not the place to request to join one of these groups.

The simple fact that these groups want to remain listed here indicates that they are LGBT Friendly. You can make your own decisions on how inclusive they are and if they are a good fit for you based on their websites or talking to representatives in game.

Additions
IMPORTANT:

All entries must include links to the Lodestone pages for your FC, LS. This is so that people can verify that your group still exists and find members to talk to in the game to request invites.

All entries must also include a website. This is so that people have a way of finding out more about your group and whether they are interested in joining, and another way to communicate with your group. There are plenty of free game-guild hosting sites available - they may not be pretty but it's something.

If you want to add your linkshell or free company, or need to correct something on your listing, please let me know. Updating this list is a PAIN - in order to have your group listed please provide the information in the following format:

(Group Name) - (Server Name)
Linkshell: (Linkshell Name) - (URL to Lodestone Page for your Linkshell)
Free Company: (Free Company Name) - (URL to Lodestone page for your Free Company)
Website: (URL to your Website or lodestone posting)

If your group is only a Linkshell or an FC, just skip the one you don't have. The "Status" line will be filled in by me based on your posting and represents the last time I had any communication from your group or anyone else to confirm that your group is still active.

Status Updates
Updating this list is a pain - both trying to figure out if a group is active, as well as the actual editing of the posting. If you have a better idea of how to manage this process let me know.

I still actively maintain the list, but will no longer be reviewing each of the entries to verify that the groups still exist and are still LGBT friendly. If you have a character on a server and can confirm personally that a particular group is active please let me know.

If you are attempting to contact a group and they appear defunct, please let me know as well so I can confirm and remove their entry.

"The FC started from a Linkshell that was created for LGBT and LGBT-friendly players. So, naturally, we tolerate nothing less than respect. Since Crystal Prism's inception, we have grown to expand our Free Company identity to include a general sense of social consciousness and emotional intelligence. What does that mean, exactly? We seek members who value diversity, who respect sensible personal boundaries, who understand the impact of toxic words and phrases often thrown around in the online world, and who accept others regardless of their social/personal identities.

Divine Comedie- Odin
Status: Active - August 2018 - Confirmed by Alek_Westeral
Free Company: Divine Comedie
Website: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...Divine-Comedie

We're new on Omega, and have created a brand new FC named Divine Comedie.
We aim to create a community where everybody can play at their own level without anxiety, with helping and caring members, and possibly with a bit of role playing game if new members are interested .

We're a french speaking LGBTQIAP+/MOGAI FC (accepting allies), wishing to become as inclusive as possible. We're recruiting here !

For now we just created the FC and have no website of our own. The name is mainly a reference to Ifrit's overdrive but can still be changed, as it appears it might be slightly controversial (or ironic at least) for an inclusive free company, given the tone of the original piece XD.
