I'm relatively new here

I've been reading for about a month I think. This might sound jerky, but I mean it more in exasperated good humor.

Some girl will start her rush story and either a concerned citizen or a killjoy will jump in and tell her "Oh don't tell us that! People can figure out who you are."

I don't get what the problem is. It's a public forum. Posters have to know that. If they search for their schools, they'll see people from their campus.

If the PNM chooses to tell her story, she's probably aware that anyone could read it. If she says bad stuff and people can figure out who she is, she runs the risk of getting cut. It's hard to see how she wouldn't know that.

If she's not saying anything bad, what's the harm? Even if people could guess who she is and who her favorites are, so what?

(Really, people, couldn't you guess the favorites of any PNM at your campus? First round, you know they love XYZ. Second round, if they get cut by XYZ, then they'll probably look at QRS or ABC. If you don't know how the groups in your greek system rank up, a PNM Greek Chat rush thread is the least of your worries. )

(Why do bad sports even have to guess? They kind of say, "it could be harmful if anyone figures out who you are. Let me do it for them by outing your campus." What the hey, people? Why do you do this? Sure, I suppose if someone had access to all of the information forms they could count the double legacies, but until you suggested it, how likely was it to happen?)

If you rush was ruined by your Greek Chat thread, please speak up. I want to understand what happened.
