Apathy IS contagious - 2008/07/28 05:15
Apathy. Or should I make it all CAPS? APATHY!!!
Yup, seems to be a common thing in part of the IM Kingdom now. Especially in the NH. That is, if there is an NH. Is there one? As of right now, I really don’t know. No one at the park today but Faust and me from 1 till 2. Numbers have been down, enough so we were last classified as a Barony. Are we (we?) still a barony or even a shire? Sure there is a sting about recruiting and once again. Just talk. Or is someone actually going make posters set up and carry out demos and make other contacts? But why bother to bring them in. It doesn’t help when you show up at the park to find yourself 3 newbs one regular and 1 visitor and that’s all. Why? Cause people were elsewhere without telling us few they would be late and not doing anything but talking when they did get there.. Sad thing is, haven’t seen the newbs or the visitor since. Know what else is sad? It’s when you announce that crown quals and tourney are due and not only does no one show any interest in declaring but almost half of those there turn their backs to the announcer. And I mean that literally. Well folks. It’s not like things in Amtgard run themselves. A few people actually have to care enough to keep it going by at least showing up and some of them taking the reins. Those that where doing so here when you started are mostly gone, so who is it up to now? YOU!!! And only you. As for me, today was the straw. Apathy is contagious. I caught it. I still plan on coming out, but as far as any positions go, I resign. My current plan is to come to the park next week and officially announce my resignation from my position of acting regent. I could say lots more, but, what’s the point?
To all of those of you who made it fun and kept if fun over the years, YOU have my utmost and heartfelt respect and thanks. It was especially enjoyable watching my boys grow up into the men that they are in the atmosphere that was the IM. For that I also thank you.
Twas fun,
