 So, tell us why you really left RK.
 If you'd like I can post a copy of my farewell forum post.
 Yes please.
 Granted:
To the members of Rote Kapelle;
Last night I dropped roles and will be leaving Stimulus/Rote Kapelle in approximately 12 hours.-á A fundamental difference in opinion has led to this and I want all of you to know that I did not arrive at this decision lightly.-á 
It's probably been very apparent to all that I've been more than a little agitated over this last week.-á I apologize for that, but I really am bothered by the events as they unfolded, vis-a-vis the ATX Tournament and our team's conduct.-á 
I consider what happened in both the RK-RvB match and the RK-PL match (account sharing -- Brent-Bacc, and Booley-Dradius) to be cheating.-á Especially so in the PL match in order to get Dradius around the 'time-in-alliance' restriction that CCP has set forth in the ATX rules.-á Not only is it against the EULA/ToS, but it was against both the letter and the spirit of the ATX rules.
Brent and Booley were warned after I found out that Bacc shared Brent's account during the RvB match not to break the rules in this manner again.-á Unfortunately they decided to ignore that warning and do it again in the PL match.-á 
To be honest, I'm not as disappointed in Brent (who wants to win at all costs,) Booley (who doesn't give a d**n about anyone but Booley,) and Dradius (who, while having been a huge help in practice, just wants to fly in the tournament,) as I am with Ripard.-á After reading the majority of his blog I had come to think of him as a principled and ethical person.-á If anyone on the tournament team should have put his foot down and stopped this it should have been him.-á Apparently I was mistaken in my impression of Ripard.
Some of you may or may not agree with my stance or reasoning on the issues.-á That's fine, we're all entitled to our own opinions.-á I just wanted all of you to understand that this isn't some false sense of epeen-pixel-honor.-á Rather it's a part of who I am in real life GǪ I don't cheat, and I won't associate with people that participate in, or condone cheating.-á It's just who I am GǪ how I was brought up.
I'm down to three clones and three ships in TXW, so don't worry about trying to bubble my carrier or freighter in.-á Everything else was dumped into Brent's hangar so I wouldn't have to haul it all back out.-á He should have plenty of ships to lose on his live-streaming, beer-fueled, solo roams.
Finally, at the posting of this thread someone in control of the forum can go ahead and revoke my access, as I won't be looking back over my shoulder to read the comments.-á I've made my decision and I'm good with it.
