Subject: Loading Screen Tips: Grammatical error?
   Hey, sorry to be a bother, but on the loading screen I was reading the tips and I noticed that there is a grammatical error on one tip: "The group leader can right-click their own portrait to change loot settings." Or something to that effect. The important part is "their" since the group leader is just one person, I believe it should be replaced with "his/her."

Thank you.

   'Their' is possessive, and is not specific to plural or singular reference when speaking in non-specific terms, such as something as general as a 'group leader'.
