I think people still do not get one thing. I pointed to the roleplay and from all the people in this thread, only SMI- and Tabris are the only ones which actually not only read the character's bio, but also read the entire explanation regarding the character in which I explained how character came to existence.
I said it many times. Without avail, but I will say it again. This is not matter of removing ears, a mere few words, edition of several paragraphs. This is a pretty serious intervention into characters with tonnes of roleplay done, invalidating long hours spent on thinking our things and even more hours spent on roleplaying. Changes so fundamental it would require creation of characters from very basis, completely anew - because retconned characters will not be the same characters initially created.
This is waste of time not only of the player which created the characters, but also waste of time of other players involved into creation, brainstorming and actual roleplaying. Igiss once said that "it's a game and nothing is gained, or lost, save the experience. "
What we gained is bitter taste of disappointment. What we lost is time and effort put into characters.
