***KINGDOM ANNOUNCEMENT***
Official Kingdom Monarch statement regarding Sir Darva Oakstake and the Kingdom of Crystal Groves
In regards to the Sir Darva/ Kingdom of Crystal Groves situation as Monarch of Goldenvale, I have decided to not also uphold the suspension of Sir Darva within Goldenvale, which others have asked me to do so. There are two main reasons for doing so which I will explain below.
...First and foremost, Sir Darva has done nothing wrong within Goldenvale to warrant suspension and he is in good standing with our Kingdom. I understand that some are afraid Sir Darva will which his credits over to Goldenvale via The Bitter Coast in an attempt to avoid suspension however I have spoken with him and he has assured me that he will not do so. I have to give him a chance to honor his word. If things should change I have no problem reevaluating his standing within the kingdom.
Second and just an important, as Monarch I don’t feel any player of Amtgard should be suspended from a foreign kingdom based on how close they live towards it or friends/family they have there. I feel that if I do follow the advice to also suspend Darva from Goldenvale it will set a precedent that others may feel they have the follow in the future. While I understand that some are worried of suspended players using nearby parks from other kingdoms as forms of sanctuaries in which to still play Amtgard. I don’t think that is something I want myself or Goldenvale setting the standard for. If Amtgard as a whole feels actions like this should be taken, I would prefer support from the entire Circle on Monarchs to agree this is how Amtgard suspensions should be treated in the future.
If anyone has any questions please feel free to reach out to me here or email me at akrithgv@gmail.com. Thank you.
