Re: [s-d] [s-b] Proposal: Eliminate inappropriate plural pronouns



Amend Rule 5E18 (Joining and Leaving) by replacing this text:

      Any Player can change their name

with this text:

      Any Player can change his name

In cases like this, "his" may still refer to a previously defined entity (in this case "any human external force") and we need the phrasing "his own name".
