In reply to: feeling discouraged 's message, "What do you think of the Tattletreble account on IG? Do you think anything substantive will ever change in ID as far as the rampant cheating?" on 17:08:39 04/20/24 Sat

Only a few clean schools left.

Parents can choose either not to compete or they compete knowing that the organization has not made any significant changes since this scandal originally broke.

CLRG claims to be hamstrung by Irish courts and such, but there are many sports organizations outside of Irish Dance that would simply deny membership or strongly sanction/deny the ability to compete to those that they have reason to believe are cheating-end of story. These cultures aren't, as a whole, ok with cheating- no one would argue the point and anyone who might try would look foolish doing so.

Some organizations outside of ID even have moral clauses- if you are a bad seed they can cut you at will, end of story.

CLRG as a whole seems to be consistently ok with cheating on a large scale.

I'm sure there are small pockets of people working for change, but given the volume of people that are in power that want things to stay the same - and are benefitting from all of this- it is Not likely to change.

They tried to apply those new, very strict/harsh (whatever you want to call them) rules retroactively to those implicated in the scandal... They fought back in court, apparently not concerned about looking foolish, as you say, and they won. The rules could not be applied retroactively. So the unfortunate truth is, the scandal happened under the inadequate rules of the past. There's not much which can be done now. They have legal standing. But we can make changes for the future. The result of MMG's proceedings will be interesting, because those alleged infractions happened after the rule change date. New rules apply in that case.

still don't understand it.
others can retain hope that there will be real change. too many profiting, too many second chances.

Doherty Petri and Brady confirmed by screenshots- and suspected other big players in the region.

The region may be small, but cheating is huge.

But certainly we can suspend disbelief and think that only the Doherty branch of Doherty Petri is known for fixing results.
