So tell me, is there any statement now that could be made that isn’t, in your view, just “I don’t intend to follow the rules” instead of “Dragons aren’t real, and we shouldn’t be pretending otherwise”?
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.”

yes!
“i don’t personally agree with the position the admins take on this divisive user, however i will respect the rules as layed out by Ada in this post.”
or if you want to be less formal:
“this user still concerns me, but i recognize that this is not my community and so i will abide by the rules while visiting here.”
or further still:
“bit concerned/confused by all this but noted. 👍“

Sorry if this comes across as nitpicky, but
Shouldn’t this be ”faer pronouns"?
Bold of you to assume fantasy based pronouns would follow a similar spelling pattern!
yup thanks for the correction! iirc i was editing from the drag ~> fae example because i got bored haha and that was a slip in the editing process
