Personal Pronouns have been added to profiles

Hi all,
Cooldown is an inclusive board for the LGBTQ+ community, which I myself am a member of (Straight Demisexual / Grey Ace).
I didn't have time to post this last month during Pride month, but personal pronouns have been added to profiles. This is an effort to be more inclusive to trans, intersex, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming members of our board. Using a person's name is a good way to avoid accidentally offending them with assumptions on how they identify; however, the addition of personal pronouns on profiles will help you refer to a person correctly in the third person and encourage these members to share how they identify. See the example below (what happens when you click on a profile picture):
Abuse of this field will result in an immediate ban if I see it.
Best Regards,
Spirited
