Realm Status

[Vixx]

Do we know what our status is with Belegarth or when we will know if or when we get Speaking Realm status? Just curious...

[Liam]

Belegarth is being very unimpressive with speed, but Josh Mattson being the webmaster, Im not surprised. We are not officially joined to either sport, but quite honestly, that matters very little. With time we will get worked in.

[Liam]

It will be awhile before we get speaking rights with anyone...

It took about 6 weeks for DBGA to return a copy of the chapter contract for Bloodpool. Once you get that contract back you get two representatives on the RWC and voting rights. That is the one that matter more honestly. There are always seeming to be muppets in dag wanting to change rules for stupid cry baby reasons. The hate on min clubs, round swords, wanting to make green strikes over powered or like a year or two back when people proposing get some bonus for metal armor.

but we are still considering ourselves a bel realm ?

[vehlmex]

??

[Galea]

Yes. Everyone is just slow up in the headquarters I think. We don't loose anything by not getting official status. When we do we'll just get our name added to the map. Thats really about it.

[Vixx]

I was just doing some reading on the Bel site and was wondering what our status was, I know it really doesn't effect us to be "officially recognized" lol

Howdy guys -

I happened upon this thread and wanted to let you know what's up with your status. Belegarth doesn't quite have 'official' realms. We allow anyone to use our rules and call themselves Belegarth if they choose.

As for your realm being listed on the map, I apologize for the delay. I'm still in the middle of working on a completely new system for keeping track of realms and it's taking much longer than anticipated. Because it's a pretty significant amount of work to update the old map, I'm holding off until the new map is live. Don't feel slighted here; this is just my work taking longer than I'd hoped.

Also, in case there's any confusion here, Belegarth's War Council runs a bit differently than Dagorhir. While Dagorhir has a yearly meeting at Ragnarok every year, Belegarth chose to go with quarterly voting on our online forum to allow for the inclusion of realms that weren't able to send representatives to one event. Speaking or voting rights are not necessary to be a Belegarth realm; in fact, the War Council tends to like to see realms prove they're stable for a year or so before voting in speaking rights.

Do I know you?

[Liam]

Hey Derian, yea you know me, but not well. I'm William Hannan, I started with Nan Belegorn before it was even named. Plus I believe I graduated from CF a year or two before you. We've spoken, though 7 or 8 years ago. My comment was a joke due to the fact that I didnt know til recently that you were the webmaster on the national boards. Way to come up in the sport!

[derian]

Word, I remember you.

Good luck with your realm; I'll try to get the new system (and your listing) online as soon as possible!

[Galea]

Cool.

I guess being raised on Dag I find it odd to hold the meetings online and not at some big event. I do see the reasoning behind it, it just never occurred to me that it might be done differently.

[drazzilb]

everyone please be pateint with the councill . we will figure out what is going on as soon as possible with the status of the realm

[stubbie]

No, I wanna know and I wanna know RIGHT NOW Dammit.

[drazzilb]
