That seem to be the problem. no official forum, so anyone seem as legit as another.

And about that. For sca and larp relation, just type "SCA LARP" on google.
no "vs", no "better", just that.

The first result, from "utrama-imperium" don't really need commentary.

On the second, a video of a SCA guy, who explain that for him light fighting is the most realistic form of battlefield fighting there is, and then taunt Larping with their mage with beanbag of doom.

Disregarding any not D&D fat friendly larp, while considering SCA the "most realistic" thus disregarding any reenacting done without football helmet and with steel sword. or sport like bohurt
This rustle my jimmies.

The commentary seem to have the same idea.
"When someone asks me "do you LARP?" I say "God no!" for one reason, I do not wish to associate my attempt at historical re-enactment fighting with face painted LARPing crazies..."
Well, youtube commentary. But you see that's the popular idea. It's not "SCA is different", it's "Larp is for fattass".

But yes, the people who do both seem to have more moderate opinion on it, like the third result.

But the others are just more than enought to create the "What an elitist douchebag" impression.

The not-battle thing isn't as discuted and don't seem to have this reputation. In fact very few others organisation try to recreate all aspect of life.

So yes, of course a whole organisation can't be made of asshole, and can have very wide rechearch and works, but... you know what make more noise.

On the research matter, are they not more on the "not fighting" part ?
