Suggestions of threads to move to this forum
 

In anticipation of this great new forum, we've noted some existing threads that would fit in well here. Here is a place to identify and link to those other threads so that supermods can, if it seems appropriate, move them over.

My initial suggestions (and yes, some of these are threads I started :o):

Badge Trends?

Fraternity and Sorority Arms, Seals, Flags and other Insignia

GC Virtual Tour Book of Fraternity and Sorority Heritage Sites and Landmarks

Retro pictures

Show me your National Headquarters (pics/photos/video!)

What a genius idea! :)

Any thread written by nyapbp.

the thread about Ida Shaw Martin

http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...ad.php?t=93981

the thread about defunct NPC/AES sororities

http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...d.php?t=131841

Any thread written by Eric Conard.

Yes, you can take credit. :D

I realized after posting that I should have included nyapbp's threads.

Search results for threads started by nyapbp.

Even her "Happy Founders Day" threads are generally full of history.

ETA:

And search results for threads started by Erik Conard.

I think I have to state a disclaimer on Erik's threads, though. They are full of great history, but some may see them as also having more than their fair share of bias, and a number of those threads had a tendency to veer off topic and into traded barbs between Erik, Tom Earp and others.

A part of GreekChat history, I guess.

And while we're at it, search results for threads started by oldu, which also tend to be history-based.

Yes, Erik was very biased, but many historians are. I think Erik's posts, while often being very insensitive from a gender/race standpoint are themselves, legitimate firsthand accounts of someone who was apparently once fairly prominent in the TKE organization.

Absolutely. I just figured I'd acknowledge both sides of the coin for anyone who didn't remember him.

I fail at using the search function here, but I seem to remember 2 threads about why certain GLOs were founded.

At your service, sir.

Why was your org started?

Why was your org founded?


And a few others I found in the process:

GLOs founded at the same school

The Basic symbols of all GLO's


There's also this currently active thread:

NPC/AES Members that are Defunct

Here's an older one, that I only remember because I posted pics in it. :)

Antique / Unique GLO Treasures

The thread about going from local to national to local back to national....

How do I link threads?

Bg

Go to the thread you want to link.

Go to the link in your browser window and highlight it.

Hit ctrl C
(that copies it)

go to the destination, start a new post, hit ctrl V

Post reply.

Thanks! Can I make one tiny request? I see that in the navigation window to the left that this new forum is not listed.....is that in the works?

I use that navigation on my phone as its easier....

Thanks!

This thread....

Or use this button: http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums...createlink.gif

To create a hyperlink with text, highlight the text you want before clicking on the "Insert Link" button. That way you get
From Local to National to Local to National instead of just an unidentified link.

NIC Fraternities and Their Founding

And potentially: Most Meaningful Part of Creed, Mission, Symphony, Etc.

Thoughts?

Founder's Legacies

NPC Trivia

Chapter Presidents' Badges

I like! BT morphed from current events to cool history a long, long time ago. Even if I can't keep up with it lately (home with a newborn) :o

Another one to move: Antique / Unique GLO Treasures

I have a suggestion for a NEW THREAD that would fit perfectly in History Forum, and it's one that I am almost positive has never been done on Greek Chat. But I'm too annoyed to post it right now. Maybe I'll come back and start it tomorrow. Only if certain people are not allowed to post in it, however.

Oh, BTW, MysticCat for Moderator.

Less talk, more walk... Otherwise more kitty KAT pictures in your future!

Someone is pissy...

New Thread Suggestion: Introducing Your NPC GLO's Founders

Works as informational rather than discussion thread. Places information in one thread so PNMS don't need to look-up 26 individual NPC websites.
