After all, I change my mind. If you start you better identify the player to theit position, like Dark elf runner. BigMac is totally right here

Thanks to Laviak and Pau.

Linegirls is offensive.

When individually or collectively refering to women as girls we unconciously (i hope) re-inforce centuries of stereotyping that portrayed women as lesser than real adults, less capable of adult decisions and actions.

Now that aside the central issue. Piffle. Lineman is a job description, not a racial or sexual description. it could be argued that a more generic term is needed (as in fireman to firefighter) that is more inclusive to elves/orcs/women et al. but Linebeing sounds so lame it's untrue.

Creature of the Line?
Line-entity?
Roadbump?
Target practice?
Victim?
Offering upon the holy altar of Nuffle?
Linefighter?

I am an untapped spring of creativity.

@PurpleChest: I'd have to agree, I guess... but if anyone says Lineperson I'm going to snap...
