> Sadly, I fear the black death be upon us.

> I've not been playing in the SCA for long at all...less than a year, little more than 6 months, and while many members have been delightfully friendly and fun, it saddens my heart greatly to see the bits and pieces of both sides of my new friends and family being marred by this black scourge.
>  
> First it was dissention in the barony that resulted in an extremely uncomfortable meeting, then it is the report and further discussion of a pre-emptive cannon attack at Protectorate and the aftershock thereof.  Now it appears the plague be upon the good fellows of Skaargaard.
>  
> I see enough of this in my mundane life amidst the politicking of the little people in this little town.  I started hanging around with you good folk to try and get a break from that.  That is why it is called "PLAYING" in the SCA.
>  
> You are all decent people...and you are all very different people.  That's the wonderful thing about you all.  And a great part of what attracted me to your group.  To be honest, though, all this fighting is too much like High School and is quite dissappointing.  
>  
> I'm just the upstart, the new kid, I know I've not been around long enough to know much about anything.  But I do know this...a house divided can not stand.  From what I can see so far is that too many people are just looking for reasons to get worked up and most of us fear of saying much for we know not who will get offended this time
>  
> If one cannot learn to appreciate or at least tolerate your fellow dreamers differances, how on earth can you expect them to appreciate in return? This, of course, being said to no one person in particular.  I don't know the details of all the disagreements and billious feelings, nor do I wish to know.
>  
> So, please, for the sake of us new recruits...and in the words of the Eagles...GET OVER IT.  Else you'll be scaring us away with all your fire breathing, plotting, and playing at MacBeth. 
>  
> I care and pray for all you corseted, pirating, maurauding, jesting, brewing, baking, sewing, dancing, gaming and fighting fools.  Lets all just play nice....

> Sincerely,

> God be with you in every pass. Jesus be with you on every hill. Spirit be with you in every stream, headland, ridge and law, each sea and land, each moor and meadow, lying down and rising up, in the trough of the waves or on the crest of the billow. Each step of the journey you go, go with God.
