I know I'm going to probably be doxxed and IP banned by saying this, but why do people even use pronouns? It's clearly just a simple construct designed to shorten sentences and conversations, but as soon as it started getting out of hand, why didn't we just do away with pronouns altogether?

I would like only my username in place of any pronouns referring to me because clearly pronouns are too much of a problem for some people (who can't wrap their head around a female male or a non-binary person.), thanks.

No, you're only going to be mocked for thinking you are the first person to bring this up.

I mean, they're a problem for you, given that you can't even abide by the simple guidelines of the thread.

Like, you understand how both ass-deep in the forum this thread is and how it also only applies to the people in this subforum of a subforum of a subforum of a forum...

And yet you wander all the way in here just to be a clever asshole?

Also, I apologize for my laziness in not changing Him to your username.

Also, maybe look up Deva for a better example.

Just say "any".

I'll add that I get notifications for this topic still despite not being active for years. I'll let jestingrabbit take over, if he's still around. Have fun.

Hey Weeks -

Thanks for doing this for so long. I'm sure that it made many lives just that little bit easier, and may have had even larger impacts on a few.

(also, thanks to JestingRabbit or whoever takes over editing the 1st post)

Male, prefer male pronouns to female ones, neutral ones are ok.

Male pronouns but neutral are acceptable as long as I can tell you're referring to me.

Could mine be changed to "any"? Doesn't look like this actually gets updated any more though.

I've been here a lot recently, so:
they/them/theirs = he/him/his > others
If you want to use something else out of dadaist spite (or for any other reason), I won't mind.

FWIW, I didn't even realise there was a front-page summary until Weeks actually commented saying that it would no longer be updated! I just trawl backwards/search the thread for the people I'm looking for.

Didn't realise there were two of these until today. They should both be up to date now. PM me if you need action.
