Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
I play a Sunni king. I was the head of the Hermetic Society, then I left and indicated interest in joining the Assassins. Five years have passed with no contact. Thinking it's bugged, I withdrew the interest recently and re-enabled it again. Nothing. The event just will not fire...

(Does anybody even read these reports....?)

Probably because there are too few Shiite characters, and many of them are quite far away from your capital. As an ironman save, I cannot say for sure. The Assassins are not landed as a holy order in games started before 1090 (and cannot be landed at all unless Alamut is pillaged - I think this is probably a bug). Maybe most members are courtiers in West Africa, which is currently outside your diplomatic range.

You may try to become Shiite and convert your realm first to get enough Shiite characters, or focus on becoming Aladdin and move your capital to Damascus.
