Sorry...cut and snipped w/o warning...yes, the first part was from someone else and I responded.
someone said
"In my opinion, No One who has been playing less than 2 years should be allowed to hold an office at all. Someone should also have just attended at least three events before being put in charge of something at an event. Maybe this way we could keep the newbies we attract."
and I responded
This may be true for some, but I've known losts of new people who really didn't feel a part of things until they were given a job and some responsibility.
I think the key is providing them with the support and encouragement they need to succeed.

Ok, you lost me. How does preventing them from serving (one of our primary distinguishing traits) help retain new people?
Or are you quoting someone else, and the formatting got messed up?
