I don't want this to become a religious thread.



That might be the case but what we want and get are sometimes two very different things.

Seriously though, this is paramount to discrimination and it is as bad as asking to group up with people based on race, sex and sexual orientation, yes you might be looking for like minded people but is ME3 multiplayer really the place for that? Just think about it for a moment, i'm sure there are plenty of forums and websites where you can partake in such things.


That thread already exists.

People who question that thread are shot down immediately.

OP has every right to have this group thread.

Serious question, if you truly believe in a God, then why are you playing a game that goes in to everything practised by your religion?

Let the guy look for who he wants to play with. It's what this forum is about, finding teammates. No need to attack him or his beliefs just because you don't agree with them. If you don't have the same beliefs, just ignore him and his topic. He's obviously not being derogatory towards anyone else, so just chill the hell out.

Unbelievable. The OP (borne2beagator) is asking for like minded people to play with and what does he get? A bunch of trolls and spammers who have no respect for the OP and his thread. Personally if it was my thread, I would have reported half of you just for that.

Maybe some of you should read the Rules of Conduct.

“5. No Spam. Spamming can be defined as posting multiple times about the same thing, starting multiple topics about the same thing, posting off-topic posts in other people’s discussion threads or topics, or providing links that have nothing to do with the forum, topic or subject at hand, or taking existing discussions off of intended topic. Spam will be deleted without warning. Posting single images or animated .gifs instead of discussion is considered spam and is not wanted here. What constitutes Spam is up to the discretion of staff and moderators.”

Hey, born2beagator don’t let some of these people discourage you from finding the people you are looking to play the game with. I’m not really a Christian so I’m not what you are looking for. If I used a mic in most games you would probably have to mute it since I would make a sailor blush at the swearing and cussing I could spew at times and I was in the Navy so that says a lot. It’s a habit I’m slowly getting under control.

Good luck and I hope this thread works for you and you find a few people to run with.

While I don't mind people looking for like-minded individuals to game with, a religion-based group puts a bad taste in my mouth, the same as if I saw one for only white people or something like that.

OP, you were correct, your thread was a bad idea. This is a gaming discussion board, not christianmingle.com.

Besides, what would you talk about? "Jesus is cool, amirite?" "Dude you're so right!"

Jesus won't save you from mission failure screens. Good players will, and you're disenchanting many of them with your (unintentionally) bigoted thread. And a lot of non-Christians are good people, we're just unwilling to live our lives based on a guess of what might happen after we die.


However, a thread asking for gays is compeletely okay?
If I have to leave my religion out of the forums, then the gays should have to leave their beliefs out too.

There was absolutly nothing wrong with me wanting to find others who share my religion to play with.

And what I told you in the other thread lol:

Offender_Mullet wrote...
Usually it's the young & ignorant people (pretty much the same thing lol) who attack attack attack if you don't agree with them on here and any other forum. There's a lot of that in these forums. Or they're just trolls searching for attention because they didn't get any from their parents as a youth. Or, they're grossly insecure and need to flex their 'internet muscles' to feel better about themselves. Don't even bother wasting your time trying to figure it out.

Gavinjeffes and many others in your thread fall into what I said. IGNORE them. That's it. If people want to be useless then let them.

haven't read most of the thread, honestly don't care much. but... just one thing. people aren't born with a religion, they are born in to it or willingly choose it ar some point of their life. sexual orientation on the other hand is neither a matter of choice nor socialization. and that's all i have to say to this.

PS: just sharing the best quote on religion and video games i heard in forever: "i'm a video game atheist. i do not believe in god mode." :D

also, Shepard is Jesus. but that's another thread on another day.

Oh boy,  Not going to open that can of worms here.  I could go into an hour long rant on the subject, but all I will say is you are wrong.

Now please take that to the gay thread, belongs there more than here.  Please don't turn this into moral/religious debate

If you don't like it, ignore it.

Like I said.  I am not making this thread to start a religious debate.  The only thing this thread is for is to find some players who share my beliefs.  there have been numerous threads for other beliefs, so there is nothing wrong with this one

You had to get a last word in didn't you.  Again, I could go into a long debate with you on the subject, but that would just derail this even more.  If believeing homosexuality is not genetic makes me closed minded to you, so be it.

Again, this thread is NOT the place for debate.;)

OP, I'll agree with you there. You have just as much right to not be trolled/pulled off topic in your Christian thread as the GLBTTIQQA community does in its threads. Despite the fact that there have been several queer threads closed due to a troll explosion and the current one has had to endure dozens of pages worth of blatant homophobia, while your thread has only been subjected to some light ribbing and people talking about the Chinese vocabulary for dragons.
