Still we don't have a way to determine the differences between the Knight and Cavalier names as we have it.

In the old system when you were a Noble with a Warrior class, was more acceptable to be a Cavalier (knight)

Now, as soon you swear fealty to a lond, you are an entitled Knight, so for a knight to have a "Cavalier" profession, is just..... that (what you think)

For game mechanic since apparently looks different would be ok, but Medieval wise is not ok. So i propose a change on the titles, it doesn't have to be the code, it can be only the displayed name for the Title and Class.

In BM, knight is a title and cavalier is a profession/way of life, just like the hero subclass is, or the diplomat subclass is, or the trader subclass is.

Arguing about the semantics of it is rather pointless. You can just as easily have unheroic heroes and heroic non-heroes. Undiplomatic diplomats and diplomatic non-diplomats. Etc.

Class and subclass are not written in people's signatures. They are just on the character lists and character pages. I really don't see a use in renaming them.
