Thanks for stating the obvious and missing the point of what I said. Which is that I really doubt everyone at the ceromony actually cares. They have an obligation to be there.

You misread what Googi said.
"The important thing with kingdom leaders is that their authority had to come from respect"
What Googi is saying is that Respect -> Leadership... it's not Leadership -> Respect.

I didn't misread him. I'm saying that respecting the king is not vital, except when in the presence of the king. Many people in real kingdoms do not care about nor respect the king.

I didn't sense hostility from him. He was stating a valid question.
And why cant five or so kings determine the experience of roleplaying with a hand of a Kingdom's Admin?

He came off as sounding hostile because of the way he worded his question. Maybe it doesn't seem that way to you because you're being nearly as hostile as him.

The question is, why are five or so kings even needed?
