> But the point I was trying to make, was if the list is concerned
about recruiting/retaining new blood, and where everyone has wandered
off to, is it really worth having a 'warning' on the sign-up page that
has apparently outlived it's usefulness? A one-line "This list is not
exclusive to members of [insert organisations here], please do not
assume that everyone is thinking about the same time period and place,
to prevent any confusion" is probably nicer than an entire paragraph
singling out one group. :)
Or even, "This list is not exclusive to members of any specific
organization . . . " It's true, SCA members are not the only ones who
post on a more general list and assume everyone else is a member of
their particular organization.
But I think the first thing to do, re recruits, is just to let them know
h-costume exists and point them to the sign-up page.
