The word The makes this sound like aynglish, sure, it works for The Serco Dominiion, but what about The Valent Robotics?

I agree. I would rephrase it to read: "Orion Heavy Manufacturing has placed a bounty of 245000c on his head"

My suggestion... remove the articles altogether and just make "The" part of "The Itani somethingorother" "The Serco Dominion" and "The Union of Independant Territories"

Nah I aggree "the" should be removed from valent, orion, etc. It does work great with "The Serco Dominion" though.

Don't forget using appropriate pronouns. MysticRogue always gets the "unisex" treatment.

Take "The" out for corporations, leave it in for nations.

... and yes, fix the damn pronouns...

The news tab is becoming a freaking looney tunes cartoon >.<

"Heheheheh... Pronoun Trouble..."

seeing as there is no little box that you can tag to indicate the char being male or female it would be impossible to make such a genderdifference.

So if they wanna add something like that then they will first need to add some sort of extra choice during charactercreation and some further choice for already created chars.

You mean like this one?

But really, no, they dont, i mean, there are generic words,

*tracked him to* could be changed to *tracked them to* - *he celebrated* could be changed to *they celebrated*, ect ect

But that's wrong, since those words imply plurality.

better than gurls crying at night for being called a him :P

Yoda: or the other way around :P

LMAO "aynglish"

I'd just like to stick my two cents in here, but why would the Itani, being pacifists, put bountys on specific Serco pilots? Doesn't that go against their pacifist leanings?

The Order of Eo might not put bounties out, but the Order of Akan most definitely would, and the Order of Akan has been rising in power in the Itani nation for more than the last 200 years, since the death of Oernon & before. And much of the thinking in the Order of Eo has changed as well, and many in the Order of Eo might consider placing bounties as a necessary evil.

But that's wrong, since those words imply plurality.

"The Serco Dominion placed a 50 bajillion credit bounty on Tyrdium's head"? Entirely gender neutral.

I actually enjoyed congratulating Mystic on her accomplishment, with the appropriate slams at the weaknesses of the reporter...

Now... it would be *really* funny to see:

In the news:
"Bounty hunter yodaofborg celebrated her 100th successful bounty today. She has made 3216814572 hunting down scum and villainy."

... please? hehe...

I agrees with teh leapfrog.

So you are calling me a gurl? well, I might be, hows about that!

Ok, maybe im not, but, it still looks dumb to call females *him* and to preface every faction and sub faction with *the*.

maybe VO's language is stupid like French and you need articles for everything?

hehe...

nope, not calling you a girly-girl at all... just saying... I'd enjoy seeing it in the news, that's all... :)~
