Title: All New members and Others need to read....Trooper Do's and Don'ts
Post by: Quick2 on November 09, 2007, 01:30:12 PM
 I would suggest that any new member of CCG or to the 501st needs to read up on the 501st .. The history... The Garrison history.... Manners... This is our hobby and we enjoy doing this for a Great cause or causes.    Forum Manners... I am sure excitement comes in as it is new....Look at the rules of the Garrison... What is expected of you as a member... If there is an Event  sign up in Roster so we know who is going to be there..

I have heard horror Stories of  in 501st.. small as they are.. of Troopers giving the group disrespect.by their actions.. Nobody likes a "Know It All"........ Alot of our props are Fan made and  some items may be a little off of the Movie .. DON'T Put down others work.... Be Encouraging.. Be Helpful.. Some folks don't have the money to get 100 % movie props..  Take pride in the Garrison and 501st and what we represent. 

If you have anything you anything you want to share ..Please add to this thread.....

Peace, Allan

Well said Allan.  I myself many years ago had the pleasure of first hand accounts of a not so pleasant 501st member who was rude and not very professional at all (no one in this Garrison, and it was maybe the 1st or 2nd year the 501st had been around).  because of this, i was VERY turned off from the 501st, but through the kind, helpful and friendly people of this Garrison, my views have changed and i strive to be the most helpful and friendly person i can be (unless I'm in the Fett costume - then i'm all character baby  :lol: )  seriously, this group is wonderful and we ALL offer a variety of info, are not afraid to share it and i feel that makes us one of the best Garrisons out there.  keep it up!

Not everyone can read this - only official 501st members can. Way to alienate our CCG hopefuls, Allan. :P

(Just kidding, dude! :lol: )

Some of us are not yet members, but would still be interested in reading some of the stuff in there.  Mostly for personal reference.

Does drooling over others' armor count? Cause I do that way too much already XD. Seriously though one reason I was attracted to this group is the deportment I have seen and the willingness to help others... not to mention helping fund raisers in a totally awesome way!

Amen to that!  I love Star Wars, I love costuming, and I love helping others.  In the 501st, I can do all three!

I mean, the worst I may say is "aren't you a little short for a Storm Trooper?" or "Oh, my God, how much did it cost to get a wookie perm?"  The latter I have seen from someone out of costume too...
