So this has been driving me crazy for a while but I haven't gotten around to making a post about it until now. Is frankieraye a male or a female?

Before you say something along the lines of "Frankie is a boy name, stupid!" keep in mind that "Frankie" can be a nickname for "Francine" or "Francesca" (both girls names.) Also, "Raye (with the "e") is more common for a female middle name.

Of course his/her gender is probably listed somewhere obvious but I haven't seen it. Also, I apologize if I offend you Frankie, that wasn't my intention. b:laugh

    He's male. He showed up in a "Dev Diary" a while back... I forget how long, though.

    Definately a dude, writing style gives it away, even if there was no pictures, or Mods telling ya, RoFL.......b:victory

    But this leads one to wonder, did he suffer the same ****! That many of us Male Veno users did? With all the CLUELESS Cat Callers, who didn't seem to understand, that the Veno class can only be a female chari???

    If you are "in the know" the videos posted show a few different GM's, however, Fuzzy is at a loss as to why it even matters.

    Who the GM's and CM's are in RL makes no difference at all to anyone here and as such Fuzzy sees no reason for speculation on the issue.

    Yep that's me--

    This whole gender confusion began because, when I first started at PWE to help localize the game, I was assigned a female blademaster for testing purposes. A few months later, the game went live, and the blademaster became a GM, and since players always knew my character as female, I continued the tradition with the female forum avatar.

    The name FrankieRaye comes from the Marvel character known as Nova, herald to Galactus.

    I'll never understand why players of an MMO bother with IRL genders. Are you playing the game to hook up or something...?

    Frankie will be a girl to me when his Avvy displays a female character and he will be a boy to me when his Avvy displays a male character, just like any other player/character here.

    I'll be honest, that's a little rude. He even admitted that it was him in that video... and you would still call him a female because of his forum avatar?b:surrender
