It's rare but it does happen, and yes in video games. I was in an LGBTQ friendly guild recently and we lost a player or two who were offended that the guild was of that "persuasion" I guess you could say. Nothing happened in the guild that wouldn't occur in any guild, they were just offended due to their own morals that it was a stated guild stance.

It's the state of the age we live in I guess.

You mean the age of "I'm offended" from everybody including LGBTQZ as well.

Because 10'ish years ago and during live even going back to 99' nobody gave a shit in guild because it was about the game. Now it's about what nich group I'm a part of even if it doesn't involve what I'm doing-talking about now

Edit- and to answer your question, do yourself a favor and pick a good race, non-xp penalty class for your first character.

He's trying to avoid a guild that has members that say things like "those fags" or "that's gay". I guess it is indeed a reflection of the current times where a simple request like that brings out people who want to share their own opinions how they feel about it.

I can respect that. At the same time I can respect the other commenter being slightly annoyed by it...a lot of people play the game to get a break from real life and just don't want to hear about someone's sexual persuasion as like a default statement from that person.

Most guilds on P99 don't tolerate certain vulgarities like "fag" so anyone concerned with not wanting to hear that should be okay without having to specifically state that the guild is required to do that before they join. If seeing someone say a word like that in game is a huge issue for someone, then they are going to have a rough time in general in online games though since you'll see it in general chat eventually (not saying it's fine, but just saying it's an unfortunate reality).
