    I have no idea how to start this so I'll just wing it, try to keep it short and hope I'm an idiot for thinking people would hate me due to this.

    Most of you know me as Alisae and from my, short, time as mod. What was not publicly known is that I am transgender (Male to Female).

    The reason I've kept it hidden publicly is because I saw how for example @Alice Lumenia and @Staples were treated by some people (mostly players). Especially during the times that Alice trained me on the West and East servers; I won't quote the comments for obvious reasons but you probably know what I'm referring to.

    I was afraid that since I was not a moderator of the same caliber (I was a pretty shit one lol, just had a lot of hours), I would have a hard time getting people to respect me instead of getting stuck up on the fact that my voice and appearance do not fully match my perceived gender.

    I know it was bad of me to keep this hidden and even though I never really went out of my way to get people to refer to me as a girl, apart from the username, I still feel I should have said it straight away.

    Probably should include that this doesn't change the way I "should" be addressed. If you're more comfortable with calling me a him, go ahead. I won't like hearing it but I'd rather have others are comfortable since I don't want to force others to say things they do not agree with.

    I hope this changes nothing between us though I understand if it does.

    I think I remember seeing you a few times in the past, but I never really got to know you. It's nice to meet someone else sort of like me. (Idk how to end this so I just will)

    It's not what you have between your legs, it's how you act. Alice was an asshole and was therefore treated like one

    You're cool, and I respect that you let others call you "him" without getting triggered. As such, I'll use feminine pronouns for you.

    Glad to have you around

    I have no problems with a transgender (no one should, we're still people.) Though some people will treat someone like an asshole because you know...they're an asshole (just like Python mentioned.) Glad to see you come back and hopefully see you on the same server again.

    Welcome, i think that i can say confidently that i'm not a hater of anyone no matter who you are. That being said people who use their "unique" qualities as a crutch to me seems unnecessary, but in this case you seem extremely proud which that's more power to you. I hope to see you around!

    Hey, Alisae. I've not known you for a long time (only got some interactions with you when you came back from a long hiatus) but you seem pretty nice. The world is a scary place, and some people will treat you negatively. By having the courage of sharing to this to us, you have my utmost respect.

    Welcome back, and I hope you enjoy your stay here.

    Well that is one hell of an introduction right there.

    Who you are shouldn't affect the way people think of you so its great to see that you are open about it. The fact that you came out with that shows how bold you are and how accepting you are of it. Don't let that change.

    Also sorry for the permanent mark on you. I mean the supporter looks good. If you've got any questions just hmu here or on steam, ill always try to answer.

    Well, pretty much as everyone else said above.

    Welcome back to sgm and I have a feeling I have saw you a few times in the past. You just be yourself and avoid the negative criticism players have to say about you. From your returning introduction, it seems that no problems should happen as long as it's pretty mellow and nothing impetuous is presented.

    Although I don't have much memory about you, it's always pleasant to have people around that actually care about the community instead of bringing a toxic atmosphere to SGM. Enjoy your stay once more (until you leave on a hiatus or suddenly disappear, hue hue hue).

    Welcome back. Honestly, I don't really care what you perceive as and what not so you don't have to worry about me. Some people might give shit about it, but I wouldn't worry too much about them. Just be whoever you are, and nothing can change that.
