KeithHall Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I am leaving DCP! I see this becoming like politics and Facebook. This site is an opportunity for all to talk about our activity. Instead it has become US vs. Them, New Corps vs. Dino's and frankly I hate it! I like the concept of DCP but sadly we have many members who feel that they are more intelligent than the rest of us. I have been and will always be a fan of drum corps no matter what changes are made. The debates that occur on here are like the division of Republicans and Democrats and I hate it as it has become somewht like the Civil War...to much division. We don't stand together anymore! Now it's divide an conquer! It sux! I walked away from Drum corps because I love my wife and 2 other marriages went down the drain because of corps. I didn't kiss anyone ### to get into "clique" of drum corps and let other ego's take center stage. So later on today I will leave DCP just because I value friendships and choose not to take anymore sides. I can be reached at susannkeith@comcast.net if you choose to stay in contact with me. Many of you that I have met on here are amazing people. MaybeI have overstayed my welcome. Maybe I'll see you all later! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand and have tried to stay away (and maybe above) some of the snarky antics that go on here sometimes. But I have always enjoyed your company, insight and sense of humor on these pages. Thank you, Keith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Thunder Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 We've have some good discussions here on the historical forum, that you have started, Keith. I respect your decision, but we will miss your input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dckid80 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I left the BD Forums in '04 for many of the same reasons Keith. As a result, this place never was going to have the same meaning for me. Thanks for all of your insight and best of luck!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that you leaving DCP is probably a good idea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildWilly55 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Keith I am not a common user of this forum but am sad to see you leave also. As in the above comment it is not hard to see why some people get discouraged with the general comments posted in response. I have read a lot of your comments and stories with much anticipation. I have always had one motto I tried to live up to in life "Treat people how you want to be treated" I really hope you reconsider as you are a huge contributor to the well being of this forum. Thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
