That's Sir Tim to You
andrew_j_w writes "British born creator of the web Tim Berners-Lee has finally received his Knighthood from the Queen. It's nice to a pioneer, who certainly not a household name, get such a high honour from the establishment. Hopefully more people will now recognise the great work he did!"
I don't get accused, I just get modded. I sometimes think it's a 1337/n00b thing, since other people post the same thing and get modded up for being funny or interesting or whatever
I have been waiting for this topic for years now. About time.

(mod me down if you like, this post is pointless)
It's kind of a dream of mine, to be knighted...
First step: Britain, here I come!
You have to get a sig if you want to be modded up instead of down. That's how people know you're a genuine slashdotter and not just someone who walked in off the street. I don't make the rules, I'm just letting you know. Probably too late now you've got a karma penalty anyway. Set up a new account. Give it a sig "I used to get modded down so I got a sig", or something, and try again.
