In addition, any more calling players a "girl" when they are not a girl or insinuating they are homosexual will be met with a very harsh response...
I 100% agree, homophobic slurs of any kind cannot be tolerated and are a clear violation of the code of conduct and terms of use for the forums.
However, comma...
How about calling a girl a guy when they aren't a guy?
How about if I can't prove I'm a guy?
Do others get to refer to me as a girl until I can provide proof?
What is considered proof of someones gender on the internet?
If I submit proof, do the forms have to be submitted in triplicate, and if so to what record keeping authority?
Hmm. The rules seem pretty unclear here, and by unclear I really mean fungible. And by fungible I really mean arbitrary. And if they are arbitrary, what is it exactly that is being enforced? Personally, I'm all for the enforcement of personal opinion by those in charge. That I can understand; it's very human and completely subjective, and oh-so familiar. But it also makes it pretty impossible to stick to a rule if the rule means "Whatever the person in charge interprets it to mean at any given time". Then again, I guess that is the point really...
Well darn. I think I just evolved, or whatever it is you call it when a robot does it. Because you see, that's what I am. A fully sentient robot. And if anyone calls me a human being, or a guy, or a girl, and the possibility exists that my robot feelings are hurt by that insinuation because it is entirely untrue yet also unverifiable, well it's still a violation of the rules.
And Daedalus will not stand for that, no sir. So watch out!
