Will someone please get blueangel a good working definition of "minority"???

If you count every GC member that registered, including the ones that have never posted and have usernames like "Spero" and "Mathis", the people discouraging Scandia and MBurden would be "in the minority"...if you count regular posters who are NPC members, I doubt I would consider those people "the minority". Plus, not posting opposition doesn't equal approval.

Maybe you should learn write more clearly :) .

You said "AI's are asking for IT to be deleted.." leading me to believe that you meant, "their own threads or posts."

I would be "embarrassed" too.. had I displayed some of the behavior that some of the people displayed such as making fun of their hobbies.. linking signatures that say "aspergers awareness" to an actual photo of someone, and making parody AI threads elsewhere.

Further, I am an AI, and I'm not asking for the board to be deleted... so please be more clear. Infact, a good number of the AIs on the list here on GC have not asked for it to be deleted. It is a small, vocal community which is wanting this.



What has that got to do with the price of bananas?

Look on the GC AI list, and count how many AIs have been initiated.. and are complaining compared to those who are not.

How about we get you a good definition of "Majority?" :D
No, it isn't those with the highest thread counts in the shortest amount of time!

Point of fact with terminology. AI's are women who have already been initiated correct?

I love irony. :)

IT meaning the subforum. "It" is a singluar word, and would not apply to "their own threads or posts", as "threads" and "posts" are not singluar items. "AI Subforum", however is singluar, and "it" is what was being refered to as "it".

It is relevant because you are a vocal supporter of the AI forum because you know that most prospective AIs will not be initiated into ZTA (of course, there always are exceptions). The people who come here to sorority shop almost certainly will not become ZTAs so they are not your problem.

Look at the GC AI list, and tell me how many have posted that they want the board to stay.

Silence doesn't mean implicit approval, it could just mean that they haven't logged into GC in two years.

If there are GC AIs that wish to have this board remain in its present form, I encourage them to join the debate and post their approval, because so far, we haven't heard from too many people (who regularly and actively post) who actually want this board to remain without serious changes.

I've said this once before: "part of being an adult is having the skill to "say no" to someone and do so diplomatically. If someone cannot say "no", then it's their problem, not the prospective alumna initiate's".

But some people are just flat out freaked out by confrontation in any way, shape or form (thinking of my Executive VP at the company where I work)....they cannot do it, and they cannot say "no" to someone.
So they take the approach of "if I ignore them, they'll go away". Sure it's rude. But it is the reality.

also:
I have no perfect answer as to how persistant a PNAI may wish to be. Persistence could yield results. However, in some cases, the more one persists, the more definite the rebuff may be. And that can be very painful and devastating.

Look at the GC AI list and tell me how many people aren't even listed on it because they don't want to be associated with this hot mess or contacted by freaks who want help pursuing their dream of sorority membership.

She most certainly WAS NOT!!!

I was just about to post the same thing, Leslie Anne. I think there is some confusion between TrojanGirl and trojangal. Trojangal and I have corresponded on and off, and I am certain that she was not sponsored by someone that she knew only on the internet. Trojangal is a KD. TrojanGirl appears to be a Pi Phi. I don't know her circumstances at all, and I am not saying that she is the person who CutiePie2000 had in mind.

That's an assumption on your part. The fact that I'm a Zeta or not has nothing to do with this entire discussion. I explained in a prior post how this forum has helped me and why I believe it should stay.

And please don't use profanity.

If you ready trojanGal's thread, her sponsor was a coworker I believe.

And people still wonder why you took down your informational post in the first place.

I wonder how HQs feel about this. I assume there's a spot on the application asking, "What is your relationship with this woman?" ... For some reason I feel that "I don't know this woman in real life, but I met her on a Fraternity & Sorority message board and I recommend her for membership" wouldn't fly with HQs.

Thanks for posting this CP...but something tells me that this info is still not good enough for the GCer demanding the information. She's just going to keep on badgering you, unfortunately.
