SC - questions/kinda long, sorry

I am in Tir Ysigther. We are a large Barony in Atenveldt, but not as large as 
Aten itself, which is in Phoenix (we are Tucson), but in the last three/four 
years we have had a lot of people not play more than once or twice a year at 
a war event, due to problems with politics kingdom wide, feasts gone awry, 
and various other problems that have spoiled the enjoyment. One, was the 
treatment of newbies. I have since seen that change, and the barony attitude 
in general is coming around again. It has been a slow process. I don't mean 
that the current Baron/Baroness, or the previous ones were to blame for this 
attitude. It actually goes back much farther, and those individuals have 
since retired from the game. Some of the instances that I speak of go back to 
1993; so it was my speaking of my own experiences and those I witnessed first 
hand back then; a lot has corrected since then. I was out of play myself this 
last year due to health reasons, and upon returning the difference from how 
it had been to how it is progressing now was very noticable to me. It is, of 
course, changing to the good.
