Poll Which nobility title would you rather have

[Lord Horatio Nelson]

Which nobility title would you guys rather have? Would it be baron, earl, Duke or lord? Or sir though sir could be used with any of those other ones

 

[Lord Horatio Nelson]

So I hope more people will vote, and even tho there won't be any more better nobilities in my mod until my game is fixed, feel free to vote.

It would be interesting to see proper formal addresses in the game, such as:

"Their lordship, the Baron of Northshire, requests an audience with you."

Note that "sir" was reserved for knights and the casual (or equal rank) nobility of that time. A Baron would not address an Earl/Duke with "sir", as this would be considered offensive/disrespectful to the higher nobility's rank and title.

Each rank had a polite way of address from lower ranks that involved not just words, but also body gestures and behaviour.

 

[Lord Horatio Nelson]

Yes, this is true. You would mainly address a nobl whose title is higher than Knight by "Lord". @Cerez

 

[Lord Horatio Nelson]

What do you prefer, English nobility, or French Fry nobility?

 

[Lord Horatio Nelson]

But you would address an female baron or female noble with any title higher than baron as "Lady".

And I have already added a whole new nobility system into the game, it even shows the title on the character menu. But the characters don't address you as a noble tho.

Knight is a military position for nobles, and "Sir" in the army, among nobles, would have been used as a way of putting every officer on the equal level -- to put aside social nobility ranks, and focus on the state of the war.

"Lord" is mainly used for barons and your average nobility. It practicallty stands for "land-owner". Nobility of the time preferred that their status is known, so if you were going to use "Lord" to address a Duke, and you were of lower rank, you had better made sure to emphasise their high status, lest you offended them -- such as:

"Would his excellency, Lord Byron, care to join us?"

 

[Lord Horatio Nelson]

Yes, but Lord in England was used the most to address barons and up. Aka; age 3+. Will you join me in a coversation? Also wasn't Pieter Boelen one of the first PA! dismembered?! LADY MARGARET!!!!????

 

[Lord Horatio Nelson]

Well, I have to go, bye!, See you tomorrow or possibly later tonight!

 

[Cerez]

Yes, but Lord in England was used the most to address barons and up.

That is correct. But with the added note that if they were of higher rank than a baron, you would need to emphasise their status with your words and behaviour in order not to offend them.

I'm not sure what you mean.

I do not engage in instant messaging (chat) online, if that's what you mean. (It's too much for me to keep up with, with my current health.)

Also wasn't Pieter Boelen one of the first PA! dismembered?!

Once again, not sure what you mean, but this is something you'd better ask Pieter about.

LADY MARGARET!!!!????

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Once again, not sure what you mean, but this is something you'd better ask Pieter about.

I can assure you, I still have all my hands and feet.
No dismemberment here.
