BTW, as an strategic matter of fact it is unneeded to say that if someone decides to ask upstream to add that feature, what I encourage to do, do it politely and with positive arguments, and avoid accusations of any kind: it works better. Kinda "Would it be possible tho let the player choose the gender of their character? That way, female players would identify themselves better with the character and the game might be more attractive for them" instead of "Your game is sexist, you have to make it gender neutral", which of course would put the developers on the defensive side and would do more harm than good. I just thought it would do no damage to mention it, although it's quite obvious. Greetings, Miry -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
