BayRatHa, just being an ass for a stab of humor? I wouldn't read too much into it.

I might eventually have to leave so I don't spoil things for everyone else
@Raineh DazeI was thinking of Reeve (correction, not Reefe) which was lower than the Shire-Reeve (Sheriff) being replaced by Magistrate, oops.

Ooh, let me know if I have any anachronisms! I'm not going to change them, but I like learning more about history.
I went ahead and read your profile again hunting for some since you asked so nicely. The only one I noticed offhand is that sheriff is used with sort of a more modern/wild west context. The medieval shire-reefe was similar (and, I am not extraordinarily well read on this topic, so I could be mistaken) but more of a position appointed to a local by the crown. If I remember correctly, Magistrate eventually replaced the word Sheriff in the middle ages and is a more accurate description of the office. So, closer to a judge/administrator than an officer?
@Monochromatic Rainbow You're staying. The decision isn't yours.
@Snagglepuss89
Must've missed you, sorry >.>
And you know of cuir bouilli! I embrace you!
We're more or less the resident "Gives too much of a shit about the details" duo for historical accuracy. Although I've more or less just been going with the flow and trying not to nitpick the small stuff. Or the large stuff.
It's fantasy, so eh. Anachronisms abound along with mixing arms and armour from entirely different cultures.
Edit: With points to @Zebanamana as well.
@Monochromatic Rainbow *Cough*Cuir Bouilli and Maille here.*Cough*
Heavily interested, I don't quite have any questions yet that I didn't see answered in the glossary section. In all likelihood I'll have a character up tonight.
@Snagglepuss89: ... Weeeelp the way I read that initially is a good reason not to read posts immediately after waking up um. ^^;
Tsk! This is why RPs on the forum usually devolve into shipping competitions and romance sims. Right there.
