Retired Developer Piecemeal Posted March 29, 2021 Retired Developer Posted March 29, 2021 In Praetoria, Piecemeal could have an alter-ego I've just been dying to pitch, but until then, she's just a nobody following Daniel Watson around, trying to survive the wastelands. Edit: IF Daniel Watson exists either, that is. "Science. Science, my friend, requires radical gambles and adventures in malpractice sometimes. Take solace in the fact that I tested the majority of these things on the dead, the re-dead, and the nearly departed before I went to live trials. Honestly, most of my "specimens" were several iterations past being considered a human being with their original fingerprints, teeth, or IDs. So it was rather a lot like experimenting on moaning clay putty." Got time to spare? Want to see Homecoming thrive? Consider volunteering as a Game Master! For science and community!

Clave Dark 5 Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 I don't see what this has to do with directly asking someone what's in their pants, which is something I've been told a lot of trans people actually do have to put up; not who they are, but directly that.

I'd say that's 100% context dependent. Walking up to someone on the street and asking? Yeah, rude. Talking to someone whose laundry is nearby and suddenly moving on its own?

TemporalVileTerror Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Some elements transcend others on an individual's personal identity. Tis (super)human nature. . . . which is another reason I'd really, really, REALLY like to see the decoupling of pronouns/Badge Titles from character model in-game. Any chance of championing that with the programming Devs, @Piecemeal?
HelBlaiz Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Pronoun picking would be a neat option. Probably deserves its own thread, if it doesn't have one already.
