my input=Compromise
This was not a rash decision by Shalk as some believe. He deliberated over it for a few days and discussed the whole situation with reciprocity (co-leader) tried to get in touch with RP2 (co-leader) and asked me my opinion on the subject. This is after the 'lil face' incident which seemed to be a catalyst for the mass exodus of many [*RiP*] members. The rules of the clan state that either 100% of the members or the leaders and 50% of the members are entitled to change the rules. Look at the following list, and do the math on how many of the players are still active and are not a part of KFC. Shalk and Reciprocity wanted the clan to go out with class and still on top. If you want to wear a tag from a clan you belong to it is not clan stealing, not in my definition of the term. But the whole thing has become a lot less than what I expected from the most elite group of players that have ever come together as a group. In my opinion...these players were [*RiP*], to start at the first rung of the ladder again with the tag takes away from what I think of as [*RiP*]. If Beastie wants a RiP clan I think it needs to be an offshoot and should be represented with a different tag for any new members.
This is my opinion....[*RiP*] is these guys/gals and there will never be another like it. Blame whoever you want on the break up but it did break up, by mass exodus and lack of participation in one form or another. Let it go out in the classy way it deserves, let the members use the tag, let the control pass to the members who want to stay together, with a new tag that shows the distinction. When companies are absorbed or change hands many times the names change with some reference to the original.
