suppose someone asked not to be called dude?
If someone directly asked me to stop calling them that, I would. I'm not a monster.
If you're referring to my comment and my ban, no one was called dude who asked to not be called dude. The comment was a top-level response to a non-blahaj thread, that IIRC was someone asking how others approach modern day social or professional situations, where the varying gender pronouns of a larger group may be unknown.
The intention of my comment was to encourage being sensitive and modern, but also suggesting that being getting lost in nuance is silly. Whether I communicated that sentiment clearly and sensitively is subjective.
i wasn't but i'm mildly amused they banned you for that but don't ban chasers on the non-piefed blahaj.
