It's just a little hypocritical, is all. On top of that I don't see what one's sexual orientation has to do with being a gamer or a geek. There are plenty of gamer and geek conventions that don't put a focus on LGBT, which drives me to conclude that these people want a convention where they can shove it into everyone's face. That, or its secondary purpose is to function as a dating convention, which makes it even more disturbing, but not at all unlikely.
Hanging out with each other is fine, I just don't understand why these people insist on hanging out with a big sign that says 'I am gay, please love me!' around their necks.

I'm sorry but I find this incredibly ignorant. You will find groups and conventions dedicated to a variety of people all over the world, it's a stupid thing to say that they are created to 'shove it in people's faces'. I am really struggling to understand why you're finding it such a problem that this thing has been created, considering the amount of non-LGBT focused gaming conventions that there are. Gaymer con has been created as an additional event that a niche group of people can attend if they choose to, it does not mean they want to seperate themselves from society.
Also I don't understand the dating convention comment. Just because it's a LGBT-focused event, why should it be intended as a dating device?
I don't usually don't stand up for this kind of thing, but at the end of the day it's a freaking event and people will attend it if they want to, what is the big deal?
