Awwww.... I was on the front page, I saw the log-in name under "newest member" and thought gee, I hope it's not..... but it is. *sigh*

This is so not my lane but I doubt this thread will last the day so I'll just point you to the top of the AKA forum, read all of the "stickies" there, visit the national website and good luck to you.

For the love of all that is holy, PLEASE read the Pearls of Wisdom. PLEASE....

R.I.F

mother_2 07-28-2008 05:54 PM
what is the pearls of wisdom

RedefinedDiva 07-28-2008 05:56 PM
1. Read the PEARLS OF WISDOM posted at the top of the forum. Membership is NOT discussed here!

2. Are you a junior in a 4-year college? With a 3.6 GPA? Yet, you use poor S-V agreement, grammer, spelling, and punctuation? Hmmmm.... Please rethink your priorities and put you best foot forward when asking about membership opportunities in ANY organization, especially Alpha Kappa Alpha.

3. See #2.

ETA: Do you now have an alter ego? Are you interested_n AND mother_2?

mother_2 07-28-2008 06:05 PM
no, i asked what the pearls of wisdom was because i heard about a book with the same name

lol--Aw, why didn't someone quote the original post? :(

DSTCHAOS 07-28-2008 06:16 PM
I blame nittanyalum for not quoting for posterity.

I can't remember the entire thread, but she's a junior, 22. Her age and class standing are the way they are because she had kids first.

RedefinedDiva may remember more.

I'd suggest that a moderator delete this thread.

Why must us mature educated black women waste our time fooling around with such low lives.

You joined to tell us this or are you the original poster trying to deflect?

RedefinedDiva 07-28-2008 06:59 PM
I didn't think she'd be cat enough to delete her post or else I would have quoted it myself.

She wanted to know if Alpha Kappa Alpha would accept her, even though she was a 22 year old junior. She stated that she had taken time off to have kids. She had done research and decided that Alpha Kappa Alpha was for her. That's the most I could make of it from decoding the spelling, punctuation, capitalization and grammatical errors.

We'll see which of the identities reappear: interested_n or mother_2....

RedefinedDiva 07-28-2008 07:02 PM
What are the odds that "all three" of these persons joined today and took interest in this particular conversation/thread?

I see. I see. But the answer to your second question is "no". I've been lurking quite a while, there seems to be a lot of foolishness going around. I just get frustrated when we waste our time on such trifles. We have more pressing issues to deal with, did you all not watch CNN's BLACK in Amerikkka???

DSTCHAOS 07-28-2008 07:10 PM
Please drink the kool aide and go to the promise land.

FAIL.

RedefinedDiva 07-28-2008 07:13 PM
Of course, WE did. If you've "been lurking quite a while," as you claim, you'd see that WE have a whole thread here dedicated to it. But, you were just SOOOO overwhelmed by this thread, you just HAD to pick today, of all days, to FINALLY sign up for an account, yet have not taken the time to comment on the Black in America thread.... seeing as how you seem so interested in the series.

:rolleyes:

RedefinedDiva 07-28-2008 07:16 PM
Soror AKA_Monet, please come through with some of that "special spray" and extterminate this situation.

Alpha/Que "hotep" perp, is that you?

DSTCHAOS 07-28-2008 07:19 PM
I believe we have 3 threads about the CNN series. Lurkers would know that.

I am aware there a couple threads on the subject, that was my poor attempt at being a smart-ass.

I enjoyed the discussions, I prefer to just lurk though. But, if you want my two cents on the special - I think it reinforced a lot of negative stereotypes about black men. They made it seem like young educated/professional black men are non-existant, and the few who are "sell-out".

Interested_n/mother_2, just get over it. You can't come here with a membership question but you can go to another thread and participate in the CNN discussion. You don't have to try to deflect and keep your failed thread at the top, k?

Yes, that was pretty much it! She's interested (thus the clever login) and wants in, wanted directions to the nearest check-in line where she could just sign up, get her pearls and pink and green para and get on with it. You know, basic membership sign up stuff. I'm sure she found her way.

I'm IBTL too. :)

unspokenone25 07-28-2008 08:52 PM
Sigh. You would think with the Centennial Celebration having come and gone that there would be less trolls, less of the threads entitled "How can I be your Soror so I can party in DC with y'all?" Alas, the trolls just keep coming out of the woodworks.


BTW, IBTL

AKA_Monet 07-28-2008 09:12 PM
Hey, when y'all get this kinna tripe, can ya please quote the "OP" so I can see the drama unfold before I do something about it? LOL...
