Kight Bannerett?

Post by **Formendacil** » Thu Mar 10, 2005 5:42 am

Okay, I hate to toot my own horn, and draw attention to the number of posts I have, but I noticed that I passed the 2300 mark today, and apparently that promotes me from Knight to the next rank.

Which apparently is a "Kight Bannerett".

Is this a typo? Because when I went to look this up to find out what the heck I had been promoted to, it came up blank, but with the suggestion that it was supposed to be a Knight Bannerette.

Now, I don't PARTICULARLY care about being a Kight Bannerett. I am, after all, the only known Kight Bannerett in existence. I was just wondering if this was something that ought to be fixed.

EDITED TWICE FOR SPELLING

I think Baronet is the correct title.

The reason I'm pretty sure they got the spelling right for word to is this:

If you want to go find the old and locked "CC Titles" thread, you can see my post there, but the relevant extract:

Baronet: Or Knight Banneret - Baronet technically is an English title after the medieval period. A Banneret is a step up over a common knight. Neither this or a Knight Bachelor have heriditary lands attached to the title.

I was kinda waiting on your post count to see if they had gone with Baronet or Knight Banneret or perhaps something different.

(looking at my new infliction....ummm....title...) Warrior Vagrant? Ooooo, time for a new avatar (Ronin at last!).

Hey! It's been fixed.

I'm no longer a misspelled kite's bannerette (which I would assume is the tail of the kite)

Thanks admins!

Hey, since one of your definitions reads: "knight of the square flag", I think a "kite banneret" is when that knight attaches a string to the square flag on a windy day.
