Yeah I honestly don’t know either what someone’s hoodie being removed has to do with this conversation. Very different subject.

Came back from hybernation just to say you people seem suspiciously upset about a very optional and minimal addition.
I’m surprised how a topic titled “OPTION to Add Pronouns to the Bio Section” devolved into the counter argumenters resorting to trans-sexual slurs and claiming neo nazi support.
As Rain has proved, this doesn’t even have an exclusive relation to “transgenderism politics” (idk how to phrase this better, sorry) - It can also help commenters not mistakingly call you a he when you’re a she, which I reckon will be the most common situation given the sex demographics.
TLDR: Can we bring back the 2018 community, some of the current active posters need to go touch this more often
EDIT: Alternatively, play F-Zero GX, same effect

Yeah this is one of the most pointless arguments i’ve seen here lmao, like it’s not even a big deal why are you all bringing transgenderism politics here
edit: also close this thread when, it’s clearly shown to not be productive after a 9 hour lock and people still keep attacking each other over a small suggestion like this

I mean you can put the pronoun beside your name

Yeah, it is kinda concerning that people are so vocally against such a suggestion. Why?? It’s not hurting anybody.

Just would like to point out my post agreeing with the idea got no likes from anybody and it seems it’s just a circlejerk of a see-saw argument. You guys are just liking each other’s posts mindlessly lol

I liked it originally, but didn’t see the bit that said it would make no difference. To me it would make a world of difference, so I unliked it. I do thank you for agreeing to add it though.

It would obviously be nice if moderators took action on obvious transphobia, but the only suggestion I actually made was for a slot for pronouns. If somebody wanted to abuse that system to make the same attack helicopter joke for the 9,000,000th time, then be my guest. I would recommend they take at least one class on comedy first though.

Personally it’s not necessary but if people wanted/don’t mind it and it’s optional, sure why not. I can’t fathom people who feel violated by its existence.
I was wondering if such a thing would be possible to implement but I just remembered about custom titles.
(Originally ‘Leader’ status but just demonstrating)
If I go along the initial ideas, it will simply be shown after the user title if it exists.
If people abusing it would be a problem then it can easily be solved by a drop-down menu with pre-made options (e.g. Blank, He/Him, She/Her, They/Them).

This seems like a really effective solution that satisfies all parties! I support this.

so now that we have an agreement on what could be done, how about we all sit down and play some F-Zero GX?

man y’know what I came here to find some help for modding stuff but this thread is a ride. it’s fine to not want this or that but man, some of y’all will take any opportunity to turn your face and rear-end into a continuous ouroboros-loop.
it’s not that deep, a’ight? it’d be helpful, it’d save people some stress, and it’d be optional. if you have anything against that, i’d need a lot more than rightist conspiratorial nonsense to consider you worth listening to.
nobody’s asking for more than a utility to make their lives a little easier.
pull it together folks those gamecube controllers are getting cold

I think a 2.2.5 server would help

To bring an extremely overdue conclusion to this thread, the pronoun option appears to have been quietly added to the bio- as of such, I am posting this here to bring awareness to this change. If you click on my profile, you can see a simple example of this in action: it appears as a small line of text above my badges.

As per above, it was added overnight during a forum update (update post pending while something else takes a bit to get verified). Closing post
