[Namron] Bowing out

[Epperson, Sheryl]

Seth,
Just because you can't attend events for awhile doesn't mean you have to
quit the SCA totally.

Give Northkeep a try again, they really are nice people, and you may just
have sent your request last year at a bad time, and everyone figured someone
else replied privately.

Try going to populace meetings, arts & sciences, and fighter practice and
get to know the people.  Even if you can't go to events, you can still keep
up with goings on.
When you are able to get to something, just let people know, and we can
usually get loaner gear until you can get your own.

Don't desert us, just take a break to get life back on track.

Annabelle

Not personally, and not recently, but everytime I have tried to get involved
with northkeep, I never even get a hello.  Over a year ago, I tried to find
out, via emailing the northkeep list, when and where populace is held at,
stating that I had just moved from namron to tulsa and didn't even get a
single hello or an answer to my question.  So I gave up trying, when a
newcomer can't even receive a hello and info on populace for a barony.

And it matters not anyway, we have nothing in the way of garb or camping
equipment, and can't even afford to pay the SCA membership dues.  I am
losing friends but I can't afford to drive the 140 miles to namron to say
hi, much less drive 200+ miles to lake murray to participate in events.

Sorry to have ruffled some feathers,

Greg

> Seth,
> I am sorry to hear this.  However I have to disagree and ask a few
questions.  We here at Northkeep try very hard to be welcoming to new
people.  I make a personal effort to go out of my way to try to make sure I
say hello to those I don't recognize.  I would ask when you came to one of
our events and were put off?  I would also ask by who?  I have made it quite
clear that to be rude to new people is an offense I will not tolerate.  Have
I spoken with you in a fashion that would make you think that I didn't want
you to be here?  If so let me know when and I will appoligize very publicly.
Ask those who know me, that is not my behavior.  We have had a large influx
of new people here in Northkeep and if we managed to overlook you by
accident I appologize for that also.  We have many new faces and sometimes
we can miss a person in the crowd.
> I understand the issue with lack of funds.  Been there done that and
didn't like it.  However I would ask that you give Northkeep another chance.
I will make a personal promise that if you say hello to me I will do my best
to make you feel welcome.  It is nothing that I don't try to do for
everyone.
