What is really annoying me about Markland is the fact tht people take this all way too seriously. I see this as a hobby of mine. If i feel like fighting, i will. If i dont feel like fighting, then i dont want to. If people on the field are acting like assholes, then it takes all the fun out of the sport and i dont want to be a part of it. One example of this is all the politics that are involved with Markland. Why the fuck does there need to be politics. I'm just looking to have some fun, and somepoeple just suck whatever fun that was in there out of it. People look at eric and think he is being a baby or lazy because he does not always want to fight. The way we both feel is that we will put on armor when the mood suits us, not when someone bitches to us that we need to go out fighting. If these were real fights, then you would have to suit up whenever it was time to die. But Markland and the SCA are just a hobby. I do it when i want to. This weekend i wasnt feeling it for fighting or camping. Some asshole had to kick my ankle while fighting and that pissed me off because he was going over board fighting. Look at it this way. Would you want to play a video game with someone if they took the game too seriously. They just suck all the fun out of it.
This isnt life, this is a game. Take your passion off the field and into your personal life. And especially dont look at the field as a place to take out your aggression. Those people are the worst.
Fucking stupid apes
