I’ve just been wondering around AS&S forum and found this:
swordandshield.org.nz/forum/view … ?f=8&t=565
Some quotes:
Is there any problem with this? Eventually the discussion there came to “let it be and think of it as advertising because we cannot control it”. I always thought it’s cool people use those S&S and KD surcoats because they are so awesome, but I can see why club members may be not happy with it. Have larpers in possession of surcoats been asked to not use them in larps for people who are not owing them? I believe if they were this wouldn’t be a problem, so I can’t understand where the whole “can of worms” idea came from.
I just don’t wanna re-enactors think that larpers are stealing their identity or something like that, I believe if this indeed is a problem then it can be discussed.
