There's a profile setting for pronouns now

Go ahead and fill it in, it can only help out your fellow forumers. Let me know if there are any bugs or weirdness.

    A bit of feedback: The pronouns are included in the About section of a user's profile, which is displayed below all of their Badgers. My issue is that posters who have a fair amount of badgers have the About section pushed down to where one has to scroll down to see that information (Tube's profile is a good example). Would it be possible to re-arrange things so that the About section is displayed first, and then the Badgers below?

    To anyone who already did their pronouns: I made a change to move this to the top of the list, so go ahead and re enter them if you like.

    My idea was stupid. Undoing. Same from above applies.

    I'm not sure of the scope of that, but it might be possible with the tools I have.

    I just went in and set mine, it was about 2/3 down the page of custom fields.

    Is there any way you can have it show next to someone's avatar or in their sig, at least on the main site? If it's not filled in give it something cool like "Mysterious" so people don't feel bad about filling it in, but still helping to normalize the practice...

    We're using a really old and floppy plugin to get this to work at all, so it's missing some features that you would otherwise expect. Notably, I can't move the position of it at all. I'd recommend throwing pronouns in your title or signature to make it more prominent.

    I have zero idea what is causing that.

    Hey this is pretty cool.
    So if someone uses that field for aggressive jackholery about how dare they be asked that question, is that reportable?
