Don't worry, OP. I think >90% of the activity is with you and okay with the changes. You're just experiencing one of the main effects of what I like to call "DCP suckitude" :tongue:.

Nice... :thumbup:

It's funny how the polls given on this forum indicate otherwise.

Come on. You know DCP polls don't count for anything. Haven't you learned that by now? [/sarcasm]

One thing I've learned in these threads Steph is that the only polls allowed are those that support the pro-DCI changes. Except, there aren't any....

I am just guessing, but it sounds a lot like you're not really basing anything you just said off of fact.

No, I am just guessing. It was Mr. Hopkins who came up with these changes to become a little more like BOA, so it would be natural for a Cadet to be for it. I realised after the statement that it was a little harsh. Sorry.

Top Reason why people are adverse to change.

1. THE RISK OF CHANGE IS SEEN AS GREATER THAN THE RISK OF STANDING STILL

2. PEOPLE FEEL CONNECTED TO OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE IDENTIFIED WITH THE OLD WAY

3. PEOPLE HAVE NO ROLE MODELS FOR THE NEW ACTIVITY

4. PEOPLE FEAR THEY LACK THE COMPETENCE TO CHANGE

5. PEOPLE FEEL OVERLOADED AND OVERWHELMED

6. PEOPLE HAVE A HEALTHY SKEPTICISM AND WANT TO BE SURE NEW IDEAS ARE SOUND

7. PEOPLE FEAR HIDDEN AGENDAS AMONG WOULD-BE REFORMERS

8. PEOPLE FEEL THE PROPOSED CHANGE THREATENS THEIR NOTIONS OF THEMSELVES

9. PEOPLE ANTICIPATE A LOSS OF STATUS OR QUALITY OF LIFE

10. PEOPLE GENUINELY BELIEVE THAT THE PROPOSED CHANGE IS A BAD IDEA

a-hem..."DCP suckitude." Case in point.

I think DCP drives away the people who believe in furthering the activity in a certain direction. I don't have the time or energy to fight retirees with nothing better to do than argue about band over an online forum, and I doubt many others do, either. It's common knowledge that this is hardly fertile ground for those beliefs.

In terms of the volunteers, parents, band kids that follow, etc. etc., who make up the bulk of the people involved in this activity, I really don't think this kind of thing makes that big of a difference...if anything, to them, I bet it's much more of a step in the right direction than your average "concerned FMM".
