"It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough."

Greetings!
« on: 2012-05-02, 12:15:36 »
Hello all, I registered a while back (thanks for the activation!), but haven't really had a lot of time until now to introduce myself. In the SCA, I am known as Bernardo Confalonieri, a lot of friends call me Berr or Bernarr, but my real name is Chris. I actually came across this forum looking for some gear and ended up spending a lot of hours over a few days browsing through the various posts. I ended up ordering my new "show shield" from Oakheart due to a post here about their shields. It's being shipped out today, too!

Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting more involved!

Well Met Bernarr!

Between the SCA, Ren Fests and WMA there's always some interesting topic being tossed about. :)

Welcome to the site; if you got a Oakheart Armory shield, chances are it was my posts (or Leganoth, he just got one from them)- I extolled them early on for their affordability.  In fact, I just got a new one from them as well, I need to take pics and post.  Welcome to the site, you'll find we're a congenial bunch- mature too.  Mostly.  ;)
