Cypher 1,187 / 11,383 Report Post Posted January 22, 2017 Sadly, the Board of Directors has come to the conclusion that most of GFL lacks basic knowledge of the English language. Some of you get a pass, because we know that not all of GFL's members speak English as their primary language. The majority, however, have no excuse. We, the Board, are tired of being referenced as "BoD". Not because we think we're deserving of a better title, but because you guys constantly reference a single board member as a "BoD". "Cypher is a BoD, ask him.", or "Shuruia is the BoD with the best forum posts". We can't sit by and watch as you people take a title that refers to a group of 5 people, and use it ti singularly describe each one of us. Enough is enough. We will be referred to as a Directorate henceforth, because we want to make it easier for you as GFL patrons to sound less stupid. Thank you! (This means that if you're going to talk about a single one of us, we're a Director. Not a Board of Director, or a Directorate, just a Director.)

Also quick thing is this really what the BoD is stressed about. The problems in GFL are we have the title BoD. Should we not be stressing about maybe more important things. fyi I'm honestly not sure if this a joke because of how ridiculous this is. basicly what I'm asking is.

MrBubbles1080p 55 / 2,564 Report Post Posted January 22, 2017 Edited January 22, 2017 by Mr.Bubbles being called a director is better than BoD because being called a BoD can confuse people thinking there is just 1 director instead of multiple.

Cypher 1,187 / 11,383 Report Post Posted January 22, 2017 You, Snoopy, messed up the plural and singular use of community advisor. You do get a pass because you're not a native English speaker.

This proves that you are merely masquerading as a Briton. A true Brit would welcome this decision with open arms. Probably a Frenchman. I won't take a photo—I'll tell it through words.
