tlnancy asked the hard questions...questions that everyone on GC wants to know, but is afraid to ask, lest we be BALEEEEETED! :mad:

tl, you my GIRL! :::pours some Schlitz malt liquor on the ground:::

Tippiechick 09-06-2004 09:19 PM

I miss you already TL! :)

33girl 09-06-2004 09:23 PM

If she wants to ask "hard questions" (huh huh, you said hard) she has 2 or 3 other usernames to ask them under.

starang21 09-06-2004 10:02 PM

what did she ask?

Rudey 09-06-2004 10:36 PM

It's sad that a moderator can post racist remarks about blacks going back to Africa, can post anti-semitic remarks about Jewish girls being sluts, can defend his brother for making violent death threats, and then constantly harass people like me even and yet he's not banned but still kept as a moderator. Yet this person whose posts most of us didn't notice gets banned so quickly.

Please remember, everyone. Mods can do many things..

We can spin straw into gold
We can make it rain on your round of golf
We can walk on broken glass without getting cut
Some would even say we can turn coal into diamonds :D

But....

We Cannot Ban People

Sometimes it amazes me how much people let the drama of GC effect them.

It's an internet message board. What does anyone have to gain from personal attacks, etc. Especially making up a new username to do it.

It's kind of a cowardly way of getting your point across. I think some folks had some issues with the way one particular mod handled her forum. They said it. It should have ended there. The mod in question took the comments under advisement and may have or may have not acted on them.

Sometimes folks here act like a bunch of little teenagers when their parents tell them no.

It's an internet message board, try not to get so ego-involved folks. It's kind of a waste of time.

I don't think tlnancy was involved in any of that.

While she may not have been involved directly, she sure commented on it.
For those of you who don't know, tlnancy is also the poster that was known as __Q__ and kaydeelady83 (who started a bunch of stuff about the V's, etc.)

ETA: one more username of hers: fibs112358

I believe she was. It's just that those posts were dealt with. In other words, I can confirm that such posts existed, however, you'll just have to take my word for it :D

You know how when you and your sisters are at a fraternity party/mixer/bar, and your sorority song comes on and you all get in a circle and start singing, and some random gets in the middle of your circle and belts out the chorus?

She kinda did that. :p You just happened to not be at the bar when she was.

Even if she was a perp, since when do people get banned for that?

You'll have to ask John. You know he doesn't really ban many people (except spammers). I don't think any of us will be able to give you his exact reasoning.

Maybe he's trying to send a message that all this crap needs to stop? Who knows? It's all conjecture until is comes from the man himself.

33girl 09-07-2004 10:16 AM

She wasn't a perp - as in pretending to be in a sorority (although her current state of membership in the sorority she claims is questionable). I think that there have been a few people banned for perping on the NPHC boards, it just was kept between the mods of that forum and John.

All I can tell was that she was an account created for the sole purpose of stirring s***. She had at least 2 other usernames that did the same thing.

There are many people (fortunately, IMHO a lot of them are mods that have John's ear when it comes to issues like this) that believe that GC can still be a valuable resource. Contrary to what many people think, this is not LJ or AIM where acceptable recreation seems to be making anonymous attacks on people, making fun of people, etc. GC was created to be a resource to GLO members, administrators, rushees, etc. It is not my or anyone else's plaything.

ETA: I don't know whether or not she was a "perp". I actually hope that she was. I know taht none of our organizations would support what those accounts were doing on here.

_Q_ 09-07-2004 02:09 PM

The thread mourning my disappearance made me feel a little guilty, so I decided to post. I started out as "kaydeelady83." which was probably something that had just popped into my head. However, this made me appear to be a member of a particular GLO, and this really wasn't fair to them. So I got a new username, first something boring, and then "_Q_." That seemed like an apt choice, since I'd always liked the character Q on Star Trek. As _Q_, I was geniunely curious about a lot of things, one of which turned out to be a very sensitive topic.

"tlnancy" was a homage to Ted L. Nancy, author of the "Letters From a Nut" books. It seemed like the "tlnancy" posts would have been funnier with a different persona, since "_Q_" had asked serious questions.

A while ago, there was a post about how a girl with some kind of physical flaw had rushed and the members had worked to make her love their house, even though they had no intention of inviting her back. I was appalled and wondered whether they thought of the PNM as a human being. Later, I thought about some of my own posts and realized that Carnation was also a human being. It was easy to look at some of the posts on GC and think, "How insensitive," but harder to realize that some of my own weren't any better.

After this, I ended up feeling sort of bad and decided that it was OK for tlnancy's posts to be ridiculous, but they shouldn't be mean. However, tlnancy got banned anyhow, which didn't really bother me too much. Ktsnake did seem to have a valid point. Although I don't think that I was as malicious as his post implied, I did perceive GC as pure entertainment. Maybe that in itself is a problem.

Kevin 09-07-2004 03:03 PM

Thanks for that.

I apologize for any perceived ill-will you may have felt from me. You having said that makes you okay in my book.

wrigley 09-07-2004 03:15 PM

This is edited to reflect that I didn't read _Q_ 's latest post before I posted mine. Thanks for the explanation.

_Q_ 09-07-2004 03:40 PM

Thanks, and I have no hard feelings. I was thinking more about why GC would be interesting to someone who wasn't affiliated. 33girl's post almost seems to suggest that I want to be perceived as a member of a GLO, and that's not really the case. It's been sort of a diversion, maybe sort of like reality TV, but where you get to participate too. But realistically, if I'm seriously upsetting other people here, then this form of entertainment is not OK.

Thanks again _Q_. Your inquiries are welcome. GC is a great place for folks to come and learn about the Greek Community and of course it's a great place for members of Greek Organizations to learn about their own organizations as well as the organizations of others.

Having been a founder to my chapter a few years ago, I had very little background on how organizations besides my own chapter functioned. GC has provided me with great insight and ideas on that subject. The CC board has always been a form of diversion for me and others.

I must say that your observation that you weren't (and I'd extend that to many of us) do not stop to think that there are real people behind the pseudonyms that many of us use is very astute. Thanks for that.

It take courage to admit you were wrong. It would have been much easier to just create a new name and start over.

I want to be clear to you that I wish to apologize for charging you with being a malicious person. I was wrong.
