What happened to the old "X is a [male/female] in [place]"?
Without ranks anymore (Lord/Lady, Duke/Dutchess, Prince/Princess, King/Queen), it can be difficult to determine the gender of a user and assumptions are made, especially by/of new users. Can there be an icon option somewhere so we don't need to guess?

Don't want Kasic to be called a girl again now do we =p haha

But this shouldn't be too much of a problem for the awesome team Ferret and the Ferrettes! Even just a simple gender symbol under the name should be sufficient (for now..)

I really hope we're not seriously considering that name. -_-

Also, I think someone is forgetting rule 37. There are no girls on the internet. They're only people from real life visiting... or spies.

In all serious though, it doesn't make a difference. A girl serf is no different from a boy serf. I don't think many of the titles are actually gender unlocks.  At estimate I would guess around 4 have genders.

Actually, that's FAR from the first time someone has thought I was a girl. I guess either my name seems like a girl's name or the manner in which I speak seems feminine...Either way, I can't think of a place I've used this username and not had someone assume I was a girl.

I propose, "Ferret the Ferrous" or the coverse, "Ferrous Ferret." I think it fits the theme or Armor Games :P

It doesn't really, but it's kind of a mainstay to have in a bio or profile.

Yeah, that's a good idea pang. (Of course, pang is never satisfied. He wants something EPIC to denote what gender someone is.)

OH Kasic! You're so adorable!! Kiss me now!! *MUAH!!* oh... You're a guy? (Now this is an awkward situation.)

I can't think of a place I've used this username and not had someone assume I was a girl.

I looked up Kasic in Google, and the first result was this guy on Wikipedia. I don't know why someone would assume you're a girl... You're too crudely developed for something like that to be believable.

There  should be genders in Armor games so that people will know if your a boy or a girl especially if your using a alias like a neutral name it can be a boy's or a girl's name

This isn't a dating site, It's called asking if you really need to know so badly.

Gender will make it back to your profile sometime in the future.  Just not any time soon. :)

Well if that's the case, shouldn't gender also include "intersex" and "other" for those who are neither male nor female? :P
