LOL I'm very skeptical of new posters or in your case infrequent ones...I see the point though (NOW)...BUT...for those that have not seen DCI's policies etc....They MIGHT believe that to actually be written by DCI...I just wanted to nip that in the bud before it began...my first glance was it was except from DCI's policies (which I've NEVER seen)... Hello DCI...a little more TRANSPARENCY might be in order... 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigW Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 31 minutes ago, madisonsmiley said: It is a cop out if DCI says they don't have control over the corps, corps members, or their staffs. They run the "show." If you want to be in the show, play by our rules. This is a chance for the organization to step up and provide positive leadership. To paraphrase another major league: "It is a privilege to be part of Drum Corps International. Everyone who is part of DCI must refrain from 'conduct detrimental to the integrity of and public confidence' in DCI. This includes management, instructors, members, other employees of participating organizations, officials, judges and employees of DCI or any other DCI business. Conduct by anyone participating in DCI that is illegal, violent, dangerous, or irresponsible puts innocent victims at risk, damages the reputation of others in the activity, and undercuts public respect and support for DCI. We must endeavor at all times to be people of high character; we must show respect for others inside and outside our workplace; and we must strive to conduct ourselves in ways that favorably reflect on ourselves, our corps and member organizations, the communities we represent, and DCI. Dude, you got me. How about trying to be truthful instead of showing up and pulling stunts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would benefit the activity a lot. Edited April 14, 2018 by madisonsmiley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try very hard to be clear and also truthful myself. With this whole thread, it deserves and demands real clarity and truth right now, just my thoughts.
