Treat Castle Guards Right

Treat Castle Guards Right is the community for any and every cracktastic thing that does not fit anywhere else, especially if that thing has anything to do with guards, dungeons, jailers, random castle employees, and the sheriff. Oh yes, THE SHERIFF. After all, the guards are only in Nottingham to do his evil bidding. This is the place where you can let loose your tongue-in-cheek debauchery, embrace your not-so-very-good side, release your inner sheriff, and revel in the medieval playhouse that is Nottingham Castle.

Please remember that even though this is a place where hanging, flogging, burning at the stake, and all other forms of torture are condoned, we are not very good at public humiliation. (For example, note the pathetic public shearing of Lady Marian. Wasn't very effective, was it?) So, please keep all derogatory remarks mirthful in nature. We are here to laugh WITH each other, not AT each other.

Also, any instances of cyber-bullying will be permanently squashed by the offending person being immediately removed from the community. Don't try to argue your case with the Castle Guard Guild. There are no appeals.

Because bribery is not only permitted, but condoned, each person joining treatguardsrite will be given their own special guard name (to make up for the fact that so many guards went largely uncredited in the show). These will be given in the spirit of John Belushi in "Animal House" (i.e., without much thought, in a mildly deprecating manner, but with true love and acceptance and while I'm slightly drunk).

WELCOME, all those who love the downtrodden, to treatguardsrite!

Special thanks to wastingyourgum for the little guard guys who accompany our LJ user names as of March 2010. She will be receiving a bonus for performing this service, above and beyond the call of duty, for the Castle Guard Guild. The check is in the mail...
