Another modern code of chivalry

Without chivalry, it's all just dress-up.

Agreed; seeing as we all adhere to our own code of chivalry, it certainly applies to the likes of us I'd think. Its dressup for the playtrons, part of life for us.
Sir Patrick:
--- Quote ---Too true. But it's really COOL dress-up. Dress-up for guys.

Totally agree with you there, Sir Edward. It was the kits that got me interested in this in the first place. I was merely pointing out the kit does not necessarily make the knight ;)
Sir Brian:

Very true on both accounts! Yet the old adage of “The clothes makes the man” comes to mind, for which I’ve always construed as the garnish sometimes compelling enough to bring out what is the innermost truth. ;)
Sir Edward:
Yep, I'm in full agreement! In fact, it's my wish that everyone who gets into kitting up as a knight should take it seriously enough to be honorable men. It would be very disappointing to hear of a kid going to the renfaire, hoping to meet a knight, only to be shrugged off by some inconsiderate jerk in fine armor. I'd want that fellow to remove his armor so I could give him a proper thrashing. :)

NO! Let him leave the armor on! After all Sir Edward that would be a waste of the perfect opportunity to try out a nice war hammer, mace or that particularly nasty Morningstar you have! ;)
