I'm hoping this is the proper place to discuss this. I don't see a formal place for conventions... or weither or not they're even allowed on these boards.

In either case, here in Texas we have A-kon. I think... one of the biggest anime conventions, at least in Texas. In recent years (since 9/11 preciesly) prop security has gotten ridiculus and worse as years go by.

This year, the mass of the cosplayers have gotten fed up, and we WILL protest this security issue at Akon.

If you're going to A-kon, I ask that you join us. If you have similar issues with convention seciruty in your areas, this may be a good way to get some changes made.[/COLOR][/FONT]
