As for becoming a Thane we have two options. I will leave it up to a vote. 1)Only residents of Whiterun will become thanes, as being a resident is a requirement in the game, and they get Housecarls. 2)Everyone will become a thane but being a resident is necessary, though only residents of the hold get housecarls.

Another thing we need to discuss about is Housecarls. Only people with houses can have a housecarl. So only if option 1 is picked will it make sense to have the thanes have housecarls. For instance if I become Thane of all the Holds but only have a house in WHiterun will all my Housecarls live there? See the problem?

I vote for option 1) (Option 1 seems the most reasonable option. But what will happen if more than one becomes Thane in a hold? Will there be more than one Housecarl that we just have to come up with, or will there be something else? Although it would be funny if there was more than one Lydia in Whiterun lol) (There won't be more than one Lydia. One Thane will get Lydia and any other Thanes will get a new NPC as their Housecarl. Housecarls, like any other follower, will become a secondary character.)
