Hello and welcome to OCMB Blownforgood! I love your nic, sounds like you know some things scientologists should be told.
People in the RPF are considered to be possible SPs, and are not considered to be Sea Org until they graduate. When one gets offloaded they get what is called a "probationary SP declare" which gives the steps A to E PLUS a lengthy amends project and the "opportunity" to route back in to the Sea Org through the RPF after they complete all the steps and pay their freeloader debt. What a deal!
I have heard and seen that Execs like Ken Hoden and those you mention were pulled off the RPF for Court appearances or Events, and then thrown right back in the gulags as soon as the event was over.
If only we could get the information to these people that there are lots of ex-Sea Org out here willing to help them! Mick Wenlock has a private Message Board with hundreds of Ex- Sea Org posting thousands of posts per month. To Join XSO and network to old Sea Org friends:

(I highly recommend ex-Sea Org joining.)
Many XSO have contacted Chuck at :

412-260-1170 (I'll be happy to network anyone to anyone)
(media call me from time to time, and I will
network anyone to media so people with firsthand
experiences can anonymously or publicly help
expose things that obviously should be changed
inside the movement.)
There are alot more of us out here than there are still in the Sea Org, the last thing DM or OSA wants is all of us getting together.
You are so right about DM changing the tech and issuing new releases, new "improved" e-meters etc all the time, just to make more money.
Kristi Wachter has a great site about this here:

I would love to hear your stories...I think this place (OCMB) is pretty safe, no one has ever been outed here, and I have been telling OSA secrets for almost a year without much harrasment.
Hope to hear more from you!
