Followers.com gets negative review
 
I went to this web sight and was...I can't tell you what I was, but it wasn't a good feeling. Then I read these messages from these confused kids who are now scared off the greek system because of places on the web like this.
Can I just ask why all the focus on greeks? Why not football teams, or...hello, THE RUGBY team - which I can honestly say hazes far worse than anything I have ever seen. Or the Frisbee team for crying out loud.
I just really feel back for all those perspective greeks out there who stumble across this site....What do you all think?

BCNUQT - I am right behind you. This is pathetic!!! I just posted my opinions on that site's message board --- it's the one at 21:28 on Aug. 30.

I think you should all do the same if you feel strongly about defending the Greek community!

AMEN SISTER on the rugby team!!!

they haze worse than any greeks on this campus ever could...and get away with it because they don't wear greek letters on thier shirts saying "watch out for me, i might haze!"

i went to that site and was so angry that people could have SUCH close-minded views about the greek system. hazing happens everywhere: in the military, on sports teams, in MARCHING BAND *trust me on this one* and yes, in greek organizations. greeks are just the ones who get flamed for it. now, what can we do about this? instead of pointing the finger and saying "it's not just us, guys!", what else could we do? positive attention is great, but everyone knows it's the negative attention that gets the most press.
