So, after offering up my guild as the unofficial Susan's guild for LOTRO in the other thread, it got me to thinking: Is there a Steam group out there for us Trans folks? If not, would people be interested in one?
I would join a TG Group on Steam
Because I'm not as hip as I'd like to be, I must ask: Is "Steam" the art of Goldberg-esque modeling?
Because that stuff is pretty neat!
No, Steam is actually a computer app, that you can buy PC games through. It also has an internalized community consisting of groups, and a friends system

Ohhhh... Okay - Thanks! :)
So it looks like we've got some passing interest in this, at least. What should I name it?
go for it
and whoever can please do add me to steam
281 bee
i suggest go for
tsg wich can stand for transexual/transgender/tsgaming whatever
How about THGA (Trans* Hardcore Gamer Alliance)?
My only concern with naming it something like that is that it could have the possibility of outing somebody on steam who isn't ready to be outed. I'd prefer something more obfuscated. I admit that I haven't had much time to really think about it this past week. I'm sure I can come up with something clever if I put my mind to it, and if I do I'll make sure to let people know.
tavishthomas whenever you set it up.
biohazed666 once you get it going or if anyone wants to add me
OMG how about Disciples of Susan for a group name?
Soosanoos. Nobody would know but us.
Okay. Don't kill me on this one but the only thing that popped into my head was 'Lazy Susans'
Because, well, we're on Susan's board and, let's face it folks, when we're playing around on Steam we're being lazy. :D
I'm keeping this group invite-only, so if you wish to join, please either post here or send me a PM with your steam name so I can send you one. If we get enough people together I might start scheduling events and such.
GamerKelly is me..

omicron1 here. I'm currently going by the tag "Dumuzi" (If anyone understands this, I'll give you a hug. Virtual, of course. :D)
Alright im in, redacting as well :D
Yes. I don't want the group to be open because I want to keep the group a safe place for us. If your interested, and don't want to publicly announce your steam name, just drop me a PM and I'll send you an invitation.
I might be a complete forum novice, but I'd love to join the Steam group! My Steam name is [REDACTED]
(Please don't quote this, as I'm going to remove the name soon. You know, in case I want to be all stealthy later ::ninja::)
Edit: Invite received, removed my name.
Not on Steam but if I do join it I will join the group. Lazy Susan's is better than Black Eyed Susan's, boy my dad had a field day with that the year my mum got one of each as birthday presents. No worries my mum and her mum(R.I.P) gave him a thumping for it XD(lightly of course)
This sounds like a great idea :). Could you please invite me "Grimur95" <3<3
http://steamcommunity.com/id/grimur95 (http://steamcommunity.com/id/grimur95)
http://steamcommunity.com/id/pankaeks (http://steamcommunity.com/id/pankaeks)
"Cpt. Pankaek" or "caiomaster", I'm not sure which works. :D
Woo! We're up to 10 members, now. Sooner or later I'll start digging around what kind of games we all have and see if we can start up some scheduled multiplayer things.
No worries. I've got a bunch of people who don't know on my friend least and I'm administering the silly thing. I've kept it rather generic so if people stumble across it they won't know what it's for. I figure that we know, and that's good enough.
No worries. I already sent you an invite. :D

No worries. I already sent you an invite. :D
And i already accepted it. ;D
And i was originally named after a song from the succeeding album.
Anyone up for readding me. I kind of freaked out.
Sorry about that. I'll add you tonight when I get home from work.

Anyone likes, feel free to add me, jamielikesyou. Though I'm not really hardcore and I'm pretty much terrible at all games lol.
Hi Hi, I've been on steam quite a bit lately so I figured I'd go ahead and join the steam group I just realized we have here lol
My account name is pinktf2, profile name is PinkFluff

I would like to be added.

Got off my lazy butt and added you all. Welcome! :D
Do people here know about the other Transgender Steam group? It's really popular and somewhat active. The groups called "Transgender TG" - http://www.->-bleeped-<-.com/r/transgendersteam/
Moderation:
Hi people nothing wrong with having a steam group but It won't be part of the site and shouldn't claim to be

I keep the information on the group to a bare minimum. The idea is to have a safe place where we could talk about things, organize events and that kind of thing without accidentally outing anybody, so there isn't any mention of the site on the group itself, and the only people who know about it is us.
If that's still going to be an issue, just let me know and I'll take it down.
Please invite me when you get the chance Shodan. I thought I sent you a PM a couple weeks ago on it but maybe it didn't go through.
My profile:

I'll throw my account into the mix whenever you get the chance. No rush as I won't really be online much for another month.

I should probably have been a little more subtle with my name here.
Invite me also. This looks like fun :D I'm Mr Veedo
Think I got everybody an invite to the group, now. We've got a lot of people, so I'm thinking about organizing some events. I'll post on the community forum to see what we all got. :D
Yay! :D
Thank you Shodan!! I'm a member now. :)
Hii is this still going? :) also is it an anonymous group?
Yeah, this is still going. It isn't an overly active group, but it's nice. :)
It's pretty anonymous. I can't find any web returns identifying it as a trans group. A few of the members are part of other groups that specify that they're trans groups, but that hardly says anything.
oo please add me to it! My steam name is also eggy_nog hehe
Add me add me! :D "Nikolai553"
I'd love to join. http://steamcommunity.com/id/killercrabcake/
hii sorry BUMP :)
If someone on the group could possibly add me that'd be greeeaaaat!
I must have been missed in the last batch of invites. Here is a link to my profile again. https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198040984123/profile (https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198040984123/profile)

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been keeping up on this. Let me know if anybody whose a member wants to be a moderator so they can do some invites and see if we can't start coordinating for some online stuff.
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about! I would love to mod, but I don know how to do it for steam stuff. Plus, I'm still pretty new here, so I don't know if I would be able to do it by myself...@_@ plus I don't have aa many games as most. But still, I do have moderator experience on other forums ... Haha
I'll join if its still going - lunarwings

It really isn't active, for the most part, and that's my fault. I got distracted by getting fired from work and then trying to find a job and then moving across the country....
If you can get things running I'll be more than happy to give you mod status.

I cant guarantee ill be more active than you, but hey, two are better than one, right? I'm hoping I can do it from my phone since I post using TapaTalk, but, we'll see. Is there a steam app for windows phone?
Anymore room for Mods? Im available almost 24/7 as i'm a COMPLETE homebody!
if its still happening invite me please
midnightwinter666
I'm on alot if my back is up to sitting at the PC
I accepted the invite, and I'm already asking ppl to join me on Terraria tomorrow. I do work, so I wont be on until the pm, pst time. (like 430)
I was wondering about the Steam group name, having Susan's name in it is a bit curious. I'd like to propose a name change - I've been playing with using Susan as an acronym:
SUpportive
Steam
ANgels
Just an idea. <3
I don't mind changing the name. I've been wanting to for a while, but I could never come up with anything halfway decent. :D
I also tweaked the settings so you should be able to make any changes you need.

Ok, I'm at work still writing a performance report. I hate being supervisor sometimes. As soon as I get back ill check out the mod options to become more familiar with the duties and such. Also, in my previous post, I hope it didn't come off top demanding/ rude, I had to press send before I could finish because I had unwanted eyes coming by... The reason for the request was because I was afraid that having the name Lazy Susans would still be easy for (the smarter folk) to see through. But I like the idea of keeping the name Susan in the name in a secret way, like we are being sneaky... Mwahahahahah

Naw. It's okay. We want to keep this as separate from Susan's as possible, since they requested that we try to keep it from being publicly affiliated with the forums. I just haven't had the time or energy to really think about renaming it (since it's been mostly inactive anyway.)

I would love to have fellow trans gamers to play with, but as I am not fully "out" (just SOME close family & my stepdad pretty much doesn't care & my mom doesn't fully understand but is loving)publicly it is tricky for me to find a venue to interact and share in a gaming environment. The loneliness and dysphoria get me a lot of times, the dreams where I have to struggle in a near impossible quest to gain womanhood and then watch it crumble away before I wake up are more frequent. I often wake up crying, even moreso after I lost my cousin this year. I would love to join but I am scared, if there is a way to do it a bit more covertly I would love to. Would feel less alone!

That was kind of the idea of the group. Something that was invite-only and didn't advertise itself as a trans-group so it would provide a safe place for us to be ourselves. If you want to join, just PM me or KageNiko your screen name and we can add you.

Thank you so very much for the warm response! A lot of the gaming space today is a bit toxic, especially for women and LGBTQ folks. I frequent MMOs where I can choose my gender and not have to voice chat since using steam chat flags me right away as "you sound like a dude" or "why are you trying to imitate a chick?". I will send you a PM with my steam name soon. Thanks again for this opportunity, I hope to make lots of new friends. :)

I was a little hesitant at first too, I have people in my life that I dont want to talk to about "me", they already know but that conversation is unpleasant with them. Pm us here, or send a frend request to me on steam, (would be easier)

I ~almost~ was able to send that invite... The invite button wont work on my phone so, I'll have to send it tomorrow. I can bypass the invite button by adding as a friend, and then it lets me select friends to invite with an alternative method. Anywhoo, gnight!
