I was initiated into AGD in early 2000 and I was bored at work one day...I did a search on Fraternities and Sororities and GreekChat was the first thing to pop up on Google!

Ali, I was into collegeclub.com at that time too. Anything to pass the time at work!

Our DCP emailed our division informing us of the site. I logged on shortly after and here I am!

When my sisters were receiving emails about becoming the next SL victims, some annonymous person signed our guestbook on our website and referenced all the hulabaloo going on when the first season was going on. I checked it out and stayed.

(and no... we aren't doing SL... :D)

sherbertlemons 03-10-2003 12:23 AM

I found out about it via livejournal.com's sorority girl community. I've been addicted ever since!

Dionysus 03-10-2003 12:38 AM

I had a question about initiating in two different sororities that I wanted answered. I wanted to chat to some greeks about it...so I typed in "greek chat"...and what did I get? :p

Old school GC members were shady about answering my question and I got shady back...then I got banned. :(

Kevin 03-10-2003 12:47 AM

Just kind of ran into it one day when bored. Liked what I saw and posted once or twice:D

Betarulz! 03-10-2003 01:08 AM

I found it in late july of the summer of 2001 after I signed to Beta during summer rush.

I know that at the time I was looking for anything related to Greek Life and I think I used a search engine to find it. Either that or got a link from another website.

sugar and spice 03-10-2003 01:14 AM

I can't remember -- I think it was via livejournal.com's sorority community although I can't be sure. It was at a point where I had been considering going through rush for quite a while and was looking for resources about it.

josh8o 03-10-2003 01:20 AM

i found it as some link from another greek site when i was having greek issues...i pledged a different house and wanted to drop so i could join phi psi. the people here were cool as hell, and i got addicted...

Or 3000 or so times ;)

texas*princess 03-10-2003 01:43 AM

I randomly found GC through Google.. I don't recall what I was looking up though (presumably something greek related :p ) and got addicted :)

FAB*SpiceySpice 03-10-2003 02:31 AM

My ex roomie who turned out to be psycho and weird who deactivated actually showed me Greekchat, I don't think she ever posted but I did a few times and before I knew it I was addicted. :D

MSKKG 03-10-2003 10:45 AM

Thanks to PKTKKG for telling me about GC!

Peaches-n-Cream 03-10-2003 01:27 PM

I search for sorority and found greekchat in between all the dirty porno sites. :rolleyes: I checked out this website for about a year before I registered in September 2001.

carnation 03-10-2003 01:33 PM

I found it along about the time that ASLFRose pledged AOII; I was looking for some way I could communicate with other moms whose daughters had pledged GLOs besides the ones they were legacies to.

ZTAMiami 03-10-2003 02:36 PM

Dionysus:
Do you realize your sig says:
Where is my midol from? LOL
If you mean where is my mido, it is:
Adonde esta mi midol!

I think I found GC through a random search many years ago when it was greeksource. I was just a ZTAbaby then:)

The1calledTKE 03-10-2003 02:38 PM

alphagam1019 showed it to me

MoxieGrrl 03-10-2003 04:59 PM

I *love* Greek Pages.com, so I checked out their links, and found GC!

LeslieAGD 03-10-2003 05:40 PM

One of my chapter sisters told me about GC.

starang21 03-10-2003 08:26 PM

my dean told me about it to get a hold of bruhs.

wreckingcrew 03-11-2003 12:47 AM

I was doin a search for lyrics to some of the Songs of Sigma Nu. Somehow i happened upon a discussion on the Sigma Nu board of GC. Using the site navigation tools i worked my way out to the main boards and was hooked. :p I tried to register under my normal screenname(which is my IM name, and my screenname on Texags.com), AgSnake361 but for some reason it never worked.

So i had to wait a day and register under this screenname.

Before I was initiated, I was trying to find out as much info as possible about greek life so I found GreekSource through a Yahoo search. I didn't post but read the threads. Then, GreekSource was sold. The company/person who now owns it, I think that would be John Hammel :) , changed it to what it is today, which is now Greek Chat.http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmili...y/luxhello.gif

Thanks to AngelPhiSig...

Spring 2000 ROCKS!

PS~ Here's to almost 3 years!

SoCalGirl 03-11-2003 11:59 PM

It all started one sunny San Diego day....
 
I was hanging out in the Price Center with our treasurer. She went to check the chapter mail and came back with some promotional cds for greekcentral.com The cds had lame music and other extras that i did not care about but I checked out the site.

The site seemed to be interested in exposing every negative news article and only perpetrated negative stereotypes. Then I read some posts that weren't lude or crude but actually intelligent and helpful! Who could be so wise in the ways of Rush? Why PenguinTrax of course!

I forget if greekchat was in her profile or if she mentioned it on the boards; but, I followed her here, lurked for several months, and I'm glad I stayed. :D

DWAlphaGam 03-12-2003 10:45 AM

I saw it mentioned on the discussion boards on alphagam.net so I decided to check it out because I was bored at work (as usual!). It's gotten me through every day at work ever since April 2002. :D

prospectiverushee 03-12-2003 12:17 PM

I also remember Greeksource. That's how I found GC. I'm a left over from Greeksource

That's how I found it and it helps me get through work, but just since the beginning of this month! But let me tell you, I'm hooked!

navane 03-12-2003 12:29 PM

I think I found GC either by a random yahoo search or through greekpages.com.

When I got here I found the Alumnae Honor Initiation thread (now long gone; disappeared the same day as my post count somehow got reset to zero. err!) and thought "No way! *I* want to do the same thing!"

And I've been here ever since... ;)

.....Kelly :)

sigmadiva 03-13-2003 10:54 AM

I found a link to it through an online greek store. Like most have said, I read posts for a while then signed up. I'm hooked too. It beats reading EntertainmentTonight.com when things get slow in the lab.

lovespink88 10-03-2009 09:00 PM

**BUMP**

So i was thinking about this the other day...how did you guys all find GC? I was going to make a thread about this, but I searched and viola!

I found Greek Chat while going through recruitment during my sophomore year. I had finished one of the rounds, and had the cheer that the Alpha Gams did stuck in my head...well some of it...I wanted to know the rest so it was so catchy! So I Googled it, and found this! lol

WCsweet<3 10-03-2009 10:51 PM

I was trying to research Greek life as I was going to go through for a second time. I can't remember if I was just looking for Greek life in general or U of O sororities, but google led me here either way.

Senusret I 10-03-2009 10:57 PM

I really don't know how I found GC....it's just sort of always been there....

sceniczip 10-03-2009 11:02 PM

One of my sisters told me about it so I checked it out. I stayed because I love the recruitment stories lol.

KSUViolet06 10-03-2009 11:23 PM

Back in 2003, I was a freshman, and was kind of interested in Greek Life. One of my friends (who was also interested) told me to come here. So I did. I mostly lurked for awhile until I went through COB in spring of 2004.

7 years later I'm still here!

Psi U MC Vito 10-04-2009 01:09 AM

I was googling something Greeklife related, I think maybe hazing and I found GC that way.

dreamseeker 10-04-2009 01:17 AM

i was stalking my sorority while i was still an aspirant and found GC. :)
