Ok so first of all thank you for telling me about this. I’ve changed it cause I feel like I should, though I do want to mention I meant no malice gang is just part of my vocabulary when I talk about people in a group.
I do want to mention, and I’m sorry if this comes off as rude, that maybe you shouldn’t use the word problematic. It’s often used as a buzzword by people who want to cause problems rather than educate. Example is I like villain characters cause they’re characters and I like to study how they operate for my own stories. But often on other websites (and even this one) people will call that problematic when it’s doesn’t actually affect real people.
Sorry for the rant I just felt like that was important to tell people. But genuinely thank you so much for telling me about this and I really appreciate you going out of your way to tell me about this. And you were incredibly polite about it which I appreciate so much.
