Board Thread:Consensus Track/@comment-14027812-20140107062142

A while ago, DarthOrc removed "the player" from the game page. I did not agree with his changes, but he is right, according to the guidelines. So, instead of having a private discussion about the matter with him, i hought it would be better to make a consensus track.

To begin with, Online does not have a particular denomination for the player character, unlike previous games. Since third person indirect is difficult to manipulate in some instances, and second person is strictly forbidden, the chosen substitute for "you" and "the player" is "the character". This style, however, can be confusing when speaking not just about the player, but about game NPCs. So i suggest the use of terms such as "the player" or "the player character" is allowed on articles regarding Online. What do you think?
