Rename the Fencer back to Slasher.

Why is the Slasher named Fencer now? Slashermakes better sense due to it's color, the fact that it can "slahed"="schlagen"=Slasher=Schläger.
Take the enemy under continuous fire / pressure build up
It actually makes less sense to name it Fencer, considering all it's both aesthetic and practical properties.

Under a Slasher you can at least imagine something, but what should be a Fencer?
Besides, the name "Fencer" sounds pretty, well how should I say it; Gay!

Fencer:

- Shoots a lot of stabby missiles; similar to a swordfighter doing a lot of stabby movements with his sword, also known as fencing
- Shoots the same type of missile as Picket, which is a name for a type of fence
- Likes to form lines and fence enemies into killzones

Slasher:

- <weird german word soup>
- "Fitting color"
- "Not gay"

quote: What I would like to see is an upgrade on Fencer that a player can toggle for a small amount (eg 50 metal) which allows Fencer to fire while moving. Then it can be called Slasher!

You're proposing a perfectly accurate zero-overkill long-range skirmisher for 200 metal.

quote: Anarchid: Slasher: (...) - "Not gay"

so even anarchid agrees, fencer sounds gay

With all the old farts around still using the old names and generally being the more vocal players on a team, I consciously have to make the effort to use the new ones, even though the name change had happened before I even started playing (I think I do genuinely prefer roach to snitch though). It's an interesting experiment on cultural evolution (or lack thereof) though.

More semantic quibbling please! I like reading it.

Xivender could you do me a favor and clean up after the down vote storm spaz out you did to me, since I removed the one down vote I did to your OP?
