That said, huh, how do we handle this... "they (it's a group account)" ??
I'm not sure. I'm 64 and have always (long before all this craziness), used 'they' when sex was unknown and not readily obvious. I say, just use whatever word(s) one wants. Plenty of more important things to get one's panties in a bunch over, besides erroneous pronouns!
I've had to overlook plenty of grammatical/spelling/word errors in some of the crap (and good stuff), I've seen typed on this board. Makes steam come out my ears! As long as I can understand what the person was saying and the error wasn't too egregious, I very rarely point it out.

Well then, I guess I was ahead of my time! 😄
