DCI checks a corps books once to let them in, and then to move to World Class, then again only if a serious issue pops up. There needs to be periodic audits IMHO, there needs to be a 'Corps Management' section added to the official DCI rules (aka the 'Blue Book') that lays out (1) specifically what passes muster & what does not; &, a specific set of consequences for not passing muster, up to, and including, disqualification. Just like DCI did to spell out the exact age requirements & penalties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The methods employed to acquire this information include searching publicly available databases and social media websites, hacking, and social engineering. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More to the point, it's releasing such information with the malicous intent to embarras or cause harm to a person's reputation. There's a very gray line over how ethical this practice is , as the information released technically is publicly available and/or obtainable with minimal effort. That's basically the view that the alum in question who published this, along with a couple of their supporters, are taking: "Dude's info and history are publicly listed online and anyone, including anyone connected with Pioneer who bothered to do a background check, so it's fair game". They're taking a particular view, which Im not sure I agree with, that they're doing the corps a favor by dragging up old skeletons about criminal charges that appear to have been dismissed or expunged, and over on Reddit, they're being particularly vindictive about it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you and definitely don't condone the practice. But aren't some of us at DCP being a little bit judgmental here? Did DCP not "out" Scott Atchison awhile back in the same regard? ...dredging up his old court case that was "expunged"...I am not making excuses for him and don't even know the guy...I'm glad that guy is gone...just don't think we should be judging the behavior of other posters...

As per #1 If you parse the words carefully, it mentions changes by the interim board. That seems to point at a shorter period of time while all of this shakes out. Still, not sure that is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changes by interim board to improve problems caused by people who ran things for years. Yet the changes need to be approved by the people who ran things for years. Personally I can’t see anything will be approved if it cuts down the power of the previous (still current?) board. Changes that might improve things yes, but nothing to decrease power. Just have the idea RB still thinks he can bull his way thru this like before. Edited October 24, 2018 by JimF-LowBari 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
