I love that woman's reply!!! That's what this silly hobby should be about.
A lot of this goes on with the MWG as well. Sad. I'm guilty of quitting organized costuming fandom myself because I'm sick of all the behind-the-scenes silliness that has been going on for far too long (well that and the fact that I never have time to devote to events the way I'd like *whine*).
I thought it was supposed to be about having fun, celebrating our shared fanpersoness, and most importantly doing good works and making kids (and adults) smile. Far too much lately it's turned into junior high level elitism and bickering. >:-< Maybe the people behind all the negative stuff that goes on in the different clubs were picked on all through school and this is their chance for some payback or something.
