Gender-correct grammar

Hi,


This little detail caught my eye: "X changed his rsvp to NO for the activity Z", when the person in question was female. It would probably not be easy to have this sentence (and possibly other instances) look up the poster's gender and use the correct pronoun?


Not trying to nitpick or anything, I simply thought it looked a bit funny.

You're 100% correct and this will be fixed.

While we're on this topic, I'm pretty sure I had unchecked the "Notify me when someone replies to my thread". However I still got a notification e-mail. Bug, or was it my imagination?

I don't know.


Does the red text below my reply say 'Subscribe to Thread' or 'Unsubscribe from Thread" ?

"Subscribe" is what I see now. And I haven't received a notify e-mail from your later message. I guess I'm just hallucinating, sorry.
