Joshua,
First of all, please let me say that I agree with Her Grace, Willow, and
Caterena whole-heartedly about their comments on patience and how we deal with
questions asked in less than an eloquent manner. I do, however, have a few
observations in this case:
1. For the most part, the people that have answered your current topic have
been nice about it and have been helpful in answering your question. They
have given suggestions and have even pointed out where on the iternet you can
get a clear, concise answer. The one reply that *could* have been taken
wrong even had some helpful advice in it.
2. Remember, people are only human. Most people are as nice to you as you
are to them. You post questions to the list, and then find some reason to
argue with people over points that have nothing to do with the original
requests. Whether people answer your posts directly or not, they read them and
remember how you acted on other posts. Take this post for example. In your last
reply, you said, "Prity much any of the "keyboard warriors" need to leave me
alone from hear on out other wise I will need to report the to the correct
SCA officials." Right there you are threatening the same people you are
asking help from. I try to be a calm man and not let much get under my skin. My
first instinct is to not help you. People do not respond well to threats.
They never have, and never will. Again, it's being human. We want to help
you, but these kinds of turns in your posts are not the way to get the help
that YOU are asking for.
A while back, you included your MySpace page on one of your posts to one of
our lists. I looked it up. If you are really living in Washington, like
your page says, you might want to go to _www.sca.org_ (http://www.sca.org) and
look under the appropriate kingdom to see what group is located nearest to
your area. If you live in Ansteorra, which is most of Texas and Oklahoma, then
let us know and we can point you in the right direction on who you can contact
to answer your questions about who to contact for fighting topics.
Just my 2 cents,
HL John Lightfoot
