A hereditary peer by my understanding is usually a Lord, while a life peerage cannot be inherited, is not considered nobility and carries the title of Baron although this entitles the holder to a seat in The House of Lords. This is all very correct, although there are less & less hereditary peers in the House of Lords these days as it is being seen as wrong that the upper house should be made up of a body of people born into the position. All acts of parliament have to be voted on in the HoL's before being made a statute, various governments have had problems passing these acts after being rejected by the HoL's...the equalisation of the age of consent is one. This is once again a hold over from days gone by when the HoL's was the senior House, and is seen as many as archaic, and out of date. There is discussion of turning them into an elected body.

It's fine as a novelty gag gift, but unfortunately for Uther, his "lairdship" means nothing or extremely little in the areas where it should really count for something -- and titling this thread "True Nobility"[sic] would seem to display a certain propensity to deceive oneself and/or to deceive others and/or a reckless indifference about certain distinctions which are important to people who know a whole lot more about the subject than he does. If Uther wants to ennoble himself in some recognized and legally-non-bogus way, then he could actually do a lot worse than get a coat of arms from Lord Lyon, since being a Scottish armiger has sometimes been considered to be equivalent to being Continental untitled nobility. Having a Scottish coat of arms doesn't allow you to put any fancy-sounding title in front of your name, but among those in the know, it's considered a lot more substantial and impressive than mucking about with square-inch "lairdships" (something which will merely expose you to the derision of the well-informed). 5 Jan 12, 5:21 PM naughtyslave US, 2 yrs AnonMoos wrote: Whatever -- There's nothing necessarily wrong with Uther having fun playing around with his low-cost new little toy (at least I certainly hope it was low cost!!), as long as he doesn't try to make it out to be something that it actually isn't.

Am I the only one that missed the post where Lord Uther claimed he was moving into Buckingham Palace or taking over Windsor Castle? I mean, I may have been mistaken when I took it as now he can legally have the title "Lord" rather than just having his slaves call him that, but I really don't think I was. 5 Jan 12, 9:06 PM 333-528-841 CA, 3 yrs AnonMoos wrote: Whatever -- There's nothing necessarily wrong with Uther having fun playing around with his low-cost new little toy (at least I certainly hope it was low cost!!), as long as he doesn't try to make it out to be something that it actually isn't.

Oh for Gods sake, nobody is trying to make anything out or deceive anyone. IMO, you seem to think you are "In the know", "well-informed" and know a whole lot more about Many subjects. Since you are so adamant about your so called superior knowledge, would you like us all to bow down to you? Is this what your continual tirade is all about whenever the mood strikes you? You are like a dog with a bone, you just have to keep gnawing away at certain subjects, attempting to dampen any spirit of fun others may want to have. I think rather than Lord_Uther, it is you who are exposing yourself to the derision of others, well informed or not. In my humble opinion, which BTW, is not up for negotiation by you; You Sir, come across as an ass, who should find a sense of humour and learn to play nice with others in the sand box. Edited to add: Since AnonMoos profile states neither Dom nor sub and since Americans cannot apparently have the honour, please disregard the word Sir. 333-528-841 Life shouldn't be measured by the breaths you take; but by the moments that take your breath away - unknown Edited 5 Jan 12, 9:19 PM by 333-528-841 6 Jan 12, 4:01 AM SL_precious CA, 3 yrs Now now...

I've already refuted all the points you have made in this post previously. Including the legality of what I have done, and how a Coat of Arms in and of itself is meaningless. I'm not going to go over all this again because you're obviously not reading my posts properly otherwise you'd know, as I've already said that I am unable to apply for a Coat of Arms from the Court of the Lord Lyon because I do not live in Scotland, but like all your posts you just ignore what you're told and stick to your script come what may. As to the phrase "untitled nobility" well I don't know about on the continent, and couldn't care less as their practices don't effect my life here in the UK, but in the UK an untitled noble would be a commoner. If you don't have a title, then you're not nobility. A point in case is Zara & Peter Phillips, Princess Anne's children, the Queen's grandchildren, you couldn't get a more noble line. As the royal title is only eligible to passed through the Monarch's male children Anne's children were never going to be called princes or princesses, though if Princess Anne had married a Duke or an Earl then they would have inherited titles from their father's line. Anne didn't do this she married a commoner Cpt Mark Phillips. The Queen refused to give Mark Phillips a title so the children were born commoners. Zara is one of the most senior women in the royal household and she is a commoner, because she doesn't have a title! Mrs Zara Tindell, 13th in line to throne, is a commoner! (And yes she does have a coat of arms). That was my reply, I will now include what one of my friends said when I told him of this response. English history is one of my loves and this guy is one of the few people I can have a proper discussion with regarding these subjects, the difference being that not only is he a few years older than me and much more versed but his love is British history. His response was, in between fits of laughter, "he's talking out his bloody arse!!" As you can see I am not the one being ridiculed.
