I am making a formal objection to the user on this forum with the title of SirMuttley.
It is actually against the law to call yourself a Sir without having gained a Knighthood.
A Knight title can only be granted by the Crown, and it is always for services to the British Empire.
Therefore it is offensive and immoral to the British Empire to call yourself a Sir if you indeed have not been Knighted by the Queen of England.
This IS a serious complaint and i certainly hope the Administration of Meamo.org will look into this matter.
