This is going to sound snarkier than I want it to, since I really don't mean to be snarky at all. But, alphagamuga, why are you so interested in seeing the AI board continue?

As midwesterngirl said, the AI policy of some orgs used to be public, and now it isn't. Because the (I)HQs felt the need to move their AI policy to a non-public location (or omit it entirely, I don't know) , it makes sense that those (I)HQs wouldn't want AI policy to be discussed on GC. Since Carnation and PT already have enough on their plates, it doesn't seem fair for them to have to mod/delete/lock/edit as many posts/threads as they would have to if the forum were to continue in its current form.

I think there are too many people here (and you may not be one of them alphagamuga, so this isn't directed at you) who believe that those of us who are in favor of omitting the AI forum are anti-AI. That isn't necessarily true. It's just that there isn't a need for AIs to share their story until they're actually a sister. At that point, if they want to share the story of how they became a sister, then that's fine. They aren't second-class sisters because they are an AI.

However, due to the current state of things, some people may see AI as second-class membership. It isn't just for the sorority's protection, but also for the PNAI's, that the AI policy be known only among those who need to know it. Your basic GC guest isn't necessarily someone who needs to know.
