spoon-business: Gender fixes |
__Sorry, no ERA this time.__ [[In response to a very valid comment of the Style Police regarding gender of non-player game entities. As far as the sexism charge goes, all I have to say is: if you want gender-based exemptions for the boys and the drones, make 'em up yourself. ;) ]] {{ Revise the first two paragraphs of 295/1 to read as follows: {{ Players and other game entities have an attribute named Gender. For a player, the Gender attribute is not necessarily the same as the player's biological gender. The Gender attribute may be one of the following: M, F, Drone, or Undeclared. By default, all players and other game entities are Undeclared. A player may select or change eir gender by declaring it in a post to a public forum. The gender of game entities may be specified or altered by proposals. }} Append to paragraph 2 of 356/0: {{ Their gender is Female. }} }} -Congenital Optimist -- karinlee@xxxxxx / seishonagon.org "Life is short, but tacky just goes on forever." -Caitlin R.
