Hopefully, with California being such a go-to location for tourists, we are able to either, inspire visiting tourists from void nations to start up their own battalions once they arrive back home, or flushout any possible existing colonial marine cosplayers who simply are not aware of this forum. Believe it or not, I actually run into quite a number of people who've never heard of us as cosplayers, or our forum. I educate them, and they leave very enthusiastic about joining. While attending the Ontario ComicCon on Saturday, I met a couple 501st members who were very excited to learn about us. Their only concern was whether they would be confronting any of the negativity they often run into within the 501st. I assurred them that our community is a LOT more friendly, supportive, and helpful with each other. I left them VERY interested in joining, and with the link to the forum to do so.
