One must make very hard and difficult decisions when running an organization like a LARP. Especially if that larp is a venture crew renting girl scout camps.
Decisions have to be made for the benefit of the organization, such as keeping plot PG 14, maintaining a good code of conduct and upholding the scouting rules and regulations.
Sometimes you have to make hard decisions and not disclose the reasoning behind those decisions because to do so would harm innocent parties. I came into such a decision after 10 years of running a larp. And because of the sensitive nature behind the situation, I cannot fully disclose the whys of my decision.
Therefore it looks like the larp and my manegement team and the evil soul sucking demons of unfundom, because we cannot disclose the full reasons of our decision.
This is putting a damper on what should have been a joyous event for us: our tenth anniversary event.
In the entire history of my chapter, the only 2 times I have banned someone was for gross negligenct conduct of a criminal nature. You would think people would realize if I asked someone not to come, it was for a damn good reason, and not something petty or stupid like a grudge. But it wasnt a ban, because they did not get charged with a criminal activity. It was a request, so world peace could ensue.
No there is no world peace, just the after effects of a holocaust of Larp war 3. Where friendships have been rendered and souls have been shattered, and the bitter remains will be whats left of my FB friends after I commence with the great purge.
One day the truth will come out. But it wont be because of me or my staff. But when that truth comes out and people realize the gravity of the situation and the unenviable situation I was placed in. They will realize the amount of pain I had to go through to make this decision, and the pain their lack of faith and ridicule cost me personally.
But I do stand by my decision. And I do regret having to make it.
