More important than your gender/sexuality/personality, is REGION. You may just find something like that in your region server, maybe on Reddit or something
OR find a French/European Dota subreddit or Discord server and then find the queer guild. You all will have clean comms and conversation topics with smooth latency and a manageable
5 LGBTs from each corner of the world or 5 different languages will have the worst experience ever haha
Keep in mind that Guilds can only have 55 players at most. A DOTABUFF sized guild wouldn't be functional or manageable. But a guild of french queers from the same discord is way more realistic and fun
my 2 cents anyway
In a community where if you lose games, ppl will try to think of worst insults, you want to try something like this, is almost commendably brave/stupid.
^I think that's the reason he's searching for it! to have all members of a team like each other makes them more coordinated and they tend to also be less toxic at each other.
it's a nice idea actually I admire it
@Z.Zincir - I would love that! I'm queer myself - Archon 1 (2.3K mmr) and also main support but can play other positions (except carry :P). I'm in US East/US West but if need be, I can try playing in your region (I'm assuming it's Europe). New to dotabuff discussion boards; what's your steam handle?
^well just my experience, but teaming up with ppl in dota basis anything other than their skills and game mindset(troll/tryhard/experimenter/etc), is a purely frustrating experience.
But well, if this works, then good for them.
@Z.Zincir @Death By Snu Snu, can we please play together!? I'm still new though and have a lot to learn. But I'm picking things up pretty quickly. I'm on NA east, but west is ok too.
Every time I make a post asking to play with other queer players non-queer people come in droves trying to tell me why I shouldn't be doing that and that sexuality has nothing to do with skill, the game, why non-queer people aren't good enough for me, and all the other off-base and unrelated stuff they project onto my simple request to find other players with a similar background as me. Like, just let me exist.
No need to do this, because eveyrone who plays dota2 is a sodomite by default.
@MessyBetsy
You made a post on public forums accessible to everyone AND most players don't care about the background of players, Ergo the post doesn't make sense so ppl tell you what makes sense to them.
Players check skills - cause you don't wanna play in games too high or too below your skill cap.
Players check mindset - cause you don't wanna troll around with tryhards and vice versa.
Players check regions - cause you don't wanna play with high ping.
All the above make sense, so no one cares when ppl post about teammates with above criterias.
Checking for gender orientation makes no sense. The point hexy made makes sense to a very small extent - but then again I've played with ppl from same city as mine and "more coordinated and less toxic" wasn't the result of that. It was kinda the opposite, since we all knew each other pretty well, when games went bad, insults were even more personal.
The beautiful thing about dota is, nothing else matters, if game goes good you get commended and play more, if game goes bad, your sexuality, family, nationality will be used to flame you.
My point being, on public forums, you can't expect ppl to not comment on something that doesn't make sense to them.

I was wondering something simple:
What if we made a little post here for queer people who want to play with queer people to form teams or guilds?
I don't have one, but I'm looking for one!
I'm French, non-binary, and I really want to join a queer guild, either French or English-speaking. Could you add me if you're interested? I mainly play Pos 4-5 and I'm at 2k MMR. I'd like to join a team precisely to stop running into disastrous teams solo.
Feel free to suggest your queer guilds or, if you're looking for a team, your profiles here!
