Friends, I'm afraid my thread has gone off the rails and I'd like to bring it back on track. Individual members (esp staff) being homophobic is surely a cause for concern but I don't want it to be what this thread is about and would prefer that kind of discussion goes elsewhere.
Here are my proposals to make everyone happy:
1. Change "country" to "flag" and add whatever flags we think would be fun to have and remove any we think wouldn't be fun to have. Pride flags are a given here.
2. Keep the field "country" and add flags of any possible country, at least on request. This would include the Gay and Lesbian Kingdom of the Coral Sea Islands, which officially uses a pride flag as their flag. Hopefully update the country list to use the officially recognized country names as well.
3. Keep the field "country" and come up with a strict document defining what MFGG considers a country or not and keep the country list up to date, removing and adding what's necessary. Since non-country flags have been done for events or placeholders before, we should still allow pride flags but for pride month only in this case.
4. Replace "country" field with a custom icon field. Flags can be a default gallery that we can add to as we see fit.
5. Do nothing and be wrong for everyone!
""We choose to go to the [Suggestions board] not because it's easy, but because it's hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win."
