VERY DISAPPOINTING in Gender issues...

[Viridila]

Update: TheWise has responded to this forum. Thank you!

Nexon, please fix some of your text information. It's not just guys who play this, gals also play this game!

Got a few Ladies on our team, Luv em... Probably have to spend Crowns, to get your Recognition Status...

 

[Brand Marrow]

you tell 'em Viridila !

In the English language, "his" can sometimes mean either gender. There isn't a gender neutral pronoun. It's not sexist, just the limitation of language.

 

[fussy]

I usually go by the rule.....What's his is mine

 

[Brand Marrow]

hmmm, that explains alot @fussy.... for instance, where's my cane got to?

 

[ReekyBullet]

Actually the word "their" would work in place of "his" arguably better. Tbh though it seems a pretty silly thing to get worked up over if this isn't satire.

 

[Motaz Tarek]

Probably they gonna fix it since they can fix text issues and visual bugs only

 

[Denquin]

Oh dear. A minor misspelling. o3o

 

[Carrigana]

Actually, His is always Male. Where One's as in when picking One's battle unit, or say For Example: When One selects this team versus that team, is a far better and completely gender neutral noun.

 

[Carrigana]

I Agree & Also as I pointed out in a comment above....

While His is Male,
and Hers is Female,
One's choice is not limited to either,
as One can select to use "One" as a noun, which is completely Gender Neutral!

Thanks!...

They could also just use ''her'' and forget about male pronouns entirely. The fact is that men are an anachronistic gender, now that human beings have pretty much bypassed natural selection, what the point of sexual recombination? Sure its enjoyable, but is it worth all of the testosterone induced nonsense that the male gender brings to the table?

 

[Carrigana]

Since I must type at least 10 characters in my reply, here they are, as I ponder why One would take the conversation thread in such a direction, particularly with One being of the male gender; regardless, in my simply opinion, yes.

 

[Veldan]

It would be more appropriate to add both genders yes, like "his or her", or change the text entirely. It could even be made user specific. If you are connected with facebook or google play, the game knows whether you're male or female anyway.

 

[TheWise]

We agree! This will be fixed in the next release!

 

[Manifesto]

No offense to the women players but is this really something worth worrying about? I don't think us men would complain if the high heel was on the other foot!
Maybe Nexon should only change the gender for women players, and we could have a ''what gender are you'' option in settings?

 

[Danix den Andre]

I find the general encouragement of killing and stealing more bothering actually...

 

[Theserver]

As a woman I know that my gender makes up about half of all mankind. I am not threatened by the use of the general terms that refer to both genders or in other cases, males only. I understand by context which is meant. I am more concerned that whatever changes you make are grammatically correct (which leaves 'their' out as it is plural) and not cludgy (as in placing 'his or her' everywhere usually turns out to be.) Using the word "one's" may be an acceptable alternative, but I would be perfectly fine with the generic usage of the word 'his.'

 

[Glacier]

When I was in school, the rule was: when talking about a person with an unknown gender, he/his is proper english. However I do agree on this one, "their" would be a better fit in this instance.

Then again, Nexon keeps adding more data and this game will crash even more or the electronics manufacturers will need to create faster internets because what Nexon is using now doesn't seem to be top grade equipment.
