What should commoners and nobles be called?
I was thinking of going with Nodes and Controllers, but that doesn''t stick. Drones isn''t quite right, because commoners had rights. Nothing I can think of quite fits. *sigh*
Any ideas appreciated...

Advice on a name?
I need a bit of naming advice.
I''ve got a world populated by "commoners" and "nobles," but I hate those labels and am looking for better ones.
The nobles used to control everything in a technocracy. Their genes were their passcode to operate the technology that controlled civilization. Everything was broken down by bloodline, and generations of people did the same work according to their genetic code.
Commoners didn''t control anything, but their connected brains formed the backbone of the processing power that ran the technology.
Now everything''s been mixed up, a big crash has thrown everything into chaos, and commoners and nobles live side by side with only some knowing how (through machine language prayers ) to operate the technology.

How about the Purebloods and the Tainted?
Actually, if you have characters that see things from different viewpoints you might want to consider a vernacular from both sides of the tracks.
So the elitists will have a positive view of themselves and a negative view of the downtrodden, while the lesser people will look at themselves as the survivors and the elite are corrupt and decadent.

Perhaps you dont need two names. An attribute for the nobles could suffice. So, a man can either be -attribute- or not :
in
connected
upgraded

That is a beautifu and elegant game concept, and I love it.
For the nobles: mentors, guardians, instructors
For the peasants: (I thought nodes was pretty good) segments, labourers, artisans, synaptics
