4 to go?
« on: 2010-10-20, 14:01:59 »
I have looked around at the posting stats for forum members and it looks like, after this post, I am just three messages away from forum based knighthood.  Should I go by Sir Adam or Sir Ancelyn? :-p

I vote for Sir Ancelyn.  Sounds more period to me.  I didn't know we were suppossed to wait until 50 posts to start using honorifics in our screen names.  I've been the Red Knight since I was a page! ;)

Hehe, we don't have any rules or customs on the forum, just a set of of forum titles. I set the entry to "knight" at 50 posts so people wouldn't be stuck as squires for years. :)
