I tried the Greek Unity route..i was the main one on campus tryingt to do joint service events with other orgs except zetas...
everyone know i was the one who was a problem solver...the one who always tried to break up the arguments......
I even tried to put together an ALL GREEK STROLL...

where did they lead to....

In college, A member of another fraternity, challenged me by walking in front of me while im strolling trying to break my line.....AND WHAT HAPPENS NEXT OF COURSE,...A FIGHT...I BEAT HIS AZZ.....

Of course now, im older and things like that will never happen because im out of that environment, but even on a professional level its that same kind of anymosity and spite even in grad chapters and especially NPHC (a joke)

I had to...I could not resist. :p
 

hmmmmmmm....interesting.....

why is that interesting AKA....

my opinion of NPHC...

National LEVEL
they actually do things...worthy of attention....i know several bros who have served on the national board of NPHC and their intentions are good at heart...

Local LEVEL
a joke...our NPHC didnt do crap but delegate party weekends and collect dues, and argue about why deltas didnt support the simga party weekend or why kappas didnt show up the the zeta community event...or petty stuff like that....

I cant say that i have experienced other collegiate nphcs other than mine, so i cant speak for your respective institutions, but i went to a regional nphc conference at a HBCU...and it was simply a few meetings of "important nature" and the main part of the partying....a waste of my time, dollars etc.....

I MAY SOUND PESSIMISTIC, BUT ITS THE TRUTH...TRUTH HURTS DOESNT IT

Theo, my brotha, you sound a little bitter toward the whole idea of greek unity. Why is that? I mean you know like I do that if you see a change needed then get in there and try to make a difference. Look at this chat room for instance. I'm an Alpha, You are a Sigma but you and I are conversing about an issue that important to you. No matter how you put it, that's greek unity.

Dexter...

sort of...

i mean, were holding a conversation, because were both intellingent, cordial and respectful....i have friends who are alphas, and ques and we have conversations about this all the time,

but that is not true for the other idiots out there, that get on internet, under the the disguise of internet anonymity and talk shyt...check out some of the forums on here and other websites, and youll see the unity, yeah right.....

Dexter
and sometimes its the little things, that irk me and others....People just dont THINK sometimes.......

For instance, someone wrote in another thread, "the Alphas were really good, and i must say it was the first time I was impressed by an Alpha step team...the Sigma team was ok...the white boy part didnt make me smile (but that is a whole other story"

HOW in the heck, you gon' get on a SIGMA forum, which is ABOUT SIGMA, PROMOTING SIGMA and RESPECTIN SIGMA, and have the nerve to say the Alpha team was good, and the sigma team was ok. If you think it is true, that okay, but its not the right place, keep it to yourself or go to the Alpha forum, and jock them. I mean HONESTLY, how did this statement add to this convo....
IT DIDNT, we could have done without it, it had no purpose at all, NONE at all

This is not a big deal, its actually kind of petty, but it shows you the little shyt that can stir controversey, and could possibly lead to arguments.....what if i replied, "What the hell you talkin about the sigma team was good, and the alpha team sucked, youre an idiot and dont know anything about stepping", Now im in the wrong, huh

Relax...
 

Theo,
Chill out bro...it's not that serious. So what somebody thought that the Alpha step team was better...maybe they were. WHO CARES? Personally I have pride in my frat and pride in being a black man as well. I have close friends and business partners who are kappa's and alpha's. That's REAL unity :D. But when we're in a "greek" setting (i.e. greek chat room, stepshow, or just sittin' around bullshittin' about greek issues), I'll call my Alpha buddy a "Faggot-Ass Monkey" or I'll tell my Kappa buddy he's really in a "Historically WHITE Frat...Phi Nu Pi" (he hates that :D ). In addition, they'll call me a "Phi Beta Skater". But when we're not clowning each other we're working together.

To the outside world it just looks like an Alpha, a Kappa, and a Sigma who all HATE each other...but that's not the case. OUR DIFFERENCES ARE THE FUN PART! When it's time for business, we conduct business. (And it acutally HELPS that we're all greek cause if someone doesn't meet a deadline I can say "Damn, you Kappas sure are fuck ups!" And they can say the same to me which makes us work harder cause you've gotta "represent"). The key is to be mature enough to relax and take shots while you also give'em. My Alpha buddy knows he's not a faggot, my Kappa buddy knows he's not in a white frat, and I DAMN SURE know I didn't skate.

Now, as far as "unity" steps and stupid shit like that, I'm not surprised that it didn't work. I only want to step with Sigmas. And Ques only want to step with Ques, etc. BUT, in real life a Sigma and a Que will have NO problem making money together.

Bottomline...suck it up man! Greek unity exists to the extent that you want it to.

.........where's my bitter cup...I'm thristy

Schizo

My problem with that comment about the alpha team etc, its actually really not a problem, is not with the comment....my point is, there is a time and a place for everything, and if we are going to stand by this greek unity jargon, a comment like that, as simple as it may sound, is to ideal for this forum...LIKE i said, little things like that could start issues with a lot of people, maybe not you or may not me...but we need to use common sense...when posting (if were going to promote greek unity)

I have greek friends too,...thats besides the point, my friends know what to say, when to say it and what not to say, out of respect for me and my org.....i went through too much shyt to sit here and let ANYONE disrepsect my lettes, internet, forum or not

Youre right, a unity stroll doesnt work,"stupid shyt" like that would never work, unfortunately, that was my soph year at school, soon after i had pledged, and i was trying to promote the greek unity on our campus and thought damn, we may not do joint programs together but maybe we can do something as simple as a dance/stroll together as an intro to the stepshow, a way to introduce the greek organ to the crowd, and show all the haters and GDI and prospectives that we actually have some form of unity, the stroll was not to be a regualar thing, just a one time performance for a one time stepshow with all 8 orgs, BUT i soon and quickly learned the truth, and after a few years, im no longer naive about greek unity....

this is simply my opinon about the matter, i am in no way or form angry, stressd out or worried about this topic, im just simply stating opinions

I FEEL YOU
 

but all I'm saying is that Greek Unity can takes lots of different forms...productive money-making forms are the best :D .

I just think there's a lot more greek unity than you're realizing frat...

...and again, our differences are the fun part (because we're not really all that different).

HOLLA

HOLLA BACK! :D

WTH is a "skater"?

Bruh,

I still think that you are reaching with this. Let me explain. There are always going to be those who feel independent pride for their organization, that's why they pledged that org. No one likes to hear that their organization is not the best at everything. But when it comes down to it, do you think that the world sees you and I as two entities or one group of black guys? I have love for you and your frat. But not as much love as I have for my frat and my bros. Just like you have love for your friends, but not as much love as you have for your family. either way it's all good. My father is a Que, My mother a Delta and my sister a SGRho, my wife's father a Kappa, and her aunt a Zeta. My Family reunions are basically one big PAN HELL meeting. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE is talking shyt to each other but we are still family and will have each others backs no matter what. There is greek unity on many different levels bruh. Don't be so distraught that you get caught up in the whole greek bashing thing.

If you have to ask, then you might fall into that category.:confused:

Still :confused:

New Soror?
 

sooooooo "ryanzmom" is a Soror? When did this happen?

:confused:

;)

:D
