Apologies for the delay but here they are. As per usual, if your pronouns aren't in the list, please comment them here and I'll see that they get added.

UPDATE: “Undecided” and “None/Use Name” have now been added.

          Yeah, I would've loved to have kept it as a cute trans joke built into the website but a lot of people seem tilted about it and think it's making a joke of the pronoun flairs so I just had them removed. Maybe when everyone calms the fuck down we can open a dialogue about it, haha.

            I think its removal helps the rest of the pronouns be treated as sincere. Putting a joke in there doesn't help the cause, IMO.

            If/when we get custom user flair in addition to pronouns, that seems like the best place for a catgirl joke.

              they added doe/deer but removed cat/boy which wildly inconsistent. if you open the door to otherkin not fair really to offer preferential treatment for the ones with their own pronouns but exclude those without their own pronouns, like catboys, from expressing their identity. no pronouns? sorry, your identity is not valid on chapo.chat. 😤

            Whats the point of pronoun flairs if youre so rigid in what people identify as? This wouldnt be a problem if you just let people put their own flairs on it

              the idea seems to be stopping people from setting their pronouns as like [attack/helicopter] or otherwise using it as an excuse to be transphobic

                So is the long promised flair text impossible to implement if poeple will used it to be transphobic?

                  flair text will be separate from pronouns and have less rigidity.

                  no, flair text serves a different purpose than pronouns. Going through an approval step to make sure that requests are in good faith for pronouns makes sure it it isn't just trans folks putting their actual pronouns in the "pronouns" column (instead of like... "posadist/posadas" like i saw posted elsewhere here as a joke).

                        Are you afraid youll lose power if the people are allowed to participate in how the site is governed?

                          No I'm afraid it'll be a major inconvenience for everyone involved - users, mods, and developers. We've already seen wreckers come in with garbage pronoun flair they somehow weaseled in and it's a very invalidating experience for the community and forces mods to be on constant shit pronoun flair watch duty. I don't even think a person's pronoun flairs are removed upon being banned either so if it was horribly offensive it'd stay there until we have developer efforts to write something to remove them. It's overall just not a good system and requires a lot more effort than "hey, here are my pronouns, see they're added."

                          I'm not requesting a certificate of transness for them to be added. Just tell me what you want added and we can all save ourselves the headache of seeing "attack/helicopter" in the comments. I experience enough transphobia and I'm sure everyone else here does too. I really don't want to see casual transphobia or jokes at the expense of trans people here too.

                            Like an exploit or something to allow whatever they want in the flair field? Has that been patched?

              Custom text encourages use for memes rather than pronouns, so only trans people will use it for pronouns, and now we have the same problem as every fucking website
