Yeah, and Anchorman > This thread and the OP.

If you spend thousands of hours to get that title, whether you want to get it, have nothing else to do, or are stuck in a concrete room in a foreign country with food and water delivered daily, it doesn't really matter? In Greek lore, even in Roman lore (and I'm talking old scriptures, I take hardcore Latin at my school and we translate that stuff) goddesses are often, not just sometimes, refered to as gods. Plus, I think if you QQ hard enough, Anet will definitely listen to you, especially you, and only you.

My title already says "Déesse parmi les hommes". Dunno what the problem is with your title.

We're not talking about lore.

We're talking about the only true Goddess, Me.

This title should be changed, not just for Me, but for every other woman, and even man who plays a female character, because all women in some way or another are a goddess, and should be awknowledged as such.

You might dislike Me, but you won't stop all us girls from sticking together, and getting this foolish patriarichal changed to better reflect the fact that there are at the very least TWO genders in this world.

Deal with it, mortal.

To call me god would be an insult, as you'd be confusing me with an inferior being.
You do know that the words God and Goddess are completely human created, right? God is a gender neutral term, and I don't give a shit what you would do if you were a god, because hey, you aren't. If you really think calling a female god a god is wrong then you are about as smart as a 5th grader, because anyone with a basic understanding of the English language or even someone who could at least read a dictionary could tell you it's a moot point, and there's nothing grammatically or linguistically wrong with using the word God for a female God.

You're a fool.

Diciontaries are fallible. I am not.

I'm sorry you had to find out this way, but, well, there it is.

When drunk, a female character says "I'm king of the world!". How many places might there be issues with gender in the text?

/unsigned

I'd rather them fix bugs and actually work on balance for a change than worry about things like this.

One time when I was drunk I actually thought of someone as my equal.

We all do silly things when we're drunk, its quite alright.
