Dragon's Laire - General Atmosphere.

[arontius]

.....Echoing Giovanni's LJ entry of earlier this morning, I was also rather glad to see Angharad's post to the Dragon's Laire e-list. I had been mulling over something similar to say, but her post was short and to-the-point. Several people jumped right on it, which is a good thing.

.....There seems to have been a general current of unease lately which was really showing on the D.L. e-list. I'm not entirely sure of the cause, and it may have nothing whatsoever with Dragon's Laire or the SCA at all. But maybe people will take a second or two, at least for a while, to think about their e-mails (and re-read them) before they are posted.

.....I know that Her Excellency was getting frustrated with what was happening. I may show up at the December Business Meeting and find that my A** has been fired as Seneschal because Angharad has shown she can do a much better job at bringing the Barony together than I can. :-)

.....I certainly do not want the D.L. list to turn into some version of the Step(pe)s. Maybe it'll take a little more diligence to ensure that real negativity is nipped in the proverbial bud before it grows. No one likes being told what to do though, and monitoring the list that closely smacks of control.

.....Will have to give thought to that.

.....Whine alert - Still wishing that I had ready access to my personal e-mail at work, and the ability to access LJ more often.

That's kind of what I thought. I only saw one message that I was very uncomfortable with, and Angharad handled it nicely. I wasn't sure how my messages were being taken, so I apoligized just in case...plus continued my discussions privately.

I'm really impressed with how polite our list is. I think Master A worries too much...
