    But there were removals even for people who noted that they would use requested neopronouns.

    Then find those and call those out. I don’t see any in my short investigation but I believe you and they probably deserve forgiveness unless other rules were broken. The ones I have seen, including the ones in OP, show intent to misgender (or otherwise use invalidating language), so that’s what I am speaking to.

    Neither of those assert that dragons aren’t real.

    Intentional. Mythic creatures and their existence, as stated previously, are irrelevant. Fairies also are not real, yet I have known GNC people that use fae/faer pronouns much longer than you or I have been on this platform.

    But if you insist here’s another:

    “this user still concerns me, but of course i will use faer pronouns just as i use all neopronouns that refer to mythical creatures that don’t exist. thank you for being transparent with your rules and i hope there can be continued dialogue around fae’s position as a toxic member of this community, outside of faer preferred pronouns.”

      Sorry if this comes across as nitpicky, but

      i will use fae’s pronouns

      Shouldn’t this be ”faer pronouns"?

        Bold of you to assume fantasy based pronouns would follow a similar spelling pattern!
