ALSO, sorry for typing things I don't mean. I guess I should choose my words carefully so y'all can understand what I'm really trying to say. Hmm?

That would be helpful. This is the internet so we usually can't tell when you're joking or being sarcastic.

To the OP, some of what you're feeling may be more common than you realize, no matter what kind of group you're in. I thinks it's easier to look up to people when you're the new one joining an established group with a reputation that you like.

It's a lot harder to maintain your enthusiasm for it when the people in the group are looking to you for the leadership.

The only way to reposition your group is to either work with the guys in it to seem more like the group you want (and they probably want to be cooler and more attractive to girls too) or to actively recruit the specific people on your campus who fit the group who are more like the original founders.

It's going to be hard work, but if you really want the brotherhood you have to keep going, I think that's what you're looking at.

^ ok stand up for what you say on the forums ... none of this bs excuse that oh i was a cheerleader for 6 years that's the way i am .... that's pathetic.... for example i know plenty of cheerleaders, myself included, that aren't all peppy and spirity 24/7 .. we also don't use the excuse oh we're cheerleaders we have a right to be dumb. it's people like you saying the stuff you do that give cheerleaders a bad name

You can be positive and encouraging without sacrificing honesty and straightforwardness.

I guess my honesty and straightforwardness is different than everyone else's.

^ honesty and straightfowardness are just that honest and straightfoward... you're either really blunt and just put it out there or you sugar coat it so you don't hurt people's feelings... it's one or the other.. which are you?

greekone and WDC needs to stop hating. We had tons of Asian international students pledge one semester. They rocked. They taught us how to say bad words in their languages and fixed us all kind of exotic dishes with tasty veggies, cool spices, and unusal amimal meats.

WDC you said some things that made several people on these forums upset. Get over it and move on to a new thread. You will never see these people in real life and arguing like this is enough to make people stick forks in their eyes.

PS
Would it be remiss of me to mention how far off the "On Topic" tracks this train has gone?

And to the OP - if you want to change your image get yourself in charge of Rush and be more selective. You may have smaller numbers at first but it might pay off.
