Sorry, in the past there have been a few "principality" movements that did
"start at the top"... Not elsewhere...here. In my opinion, of course.

Nope, the Kingdom is as big now as it always has been...

I've also heard, "Well you do good work, but you don't do anything locally..."
Some folks will find fault with anyones efforts...as you say, it's human
nature...

Yep, sure is... Well then, limit the number of events in one month, limit the
number of "official" events a group can have per year, reduce the number of
regions...(since chapters in the same region cannot have an event the same
weekend this would reduce the likely hood of having events geographically near
each other, but in different "regions"). Why should our craftspeople travel
constantly? Sometimes the smaller groups are as you say...oft times not
however...
