Some thoughts:
a) don't jump on PT, she's not got an easy job
B) PT, don't make it personal. Being a mod is a lot of work, but if you don't want it, I'd be glad to accept the job. I think I could do just fine.
c)Adelphean, I encourage you to read the D9 forums as I've learned a lot doing so
d) I know quite a few peope who Don't read forums besides the general ones and their own GLO so if everyone could ease up on that, that'd be great. She said she didn't know because she didn't read, not because she's not a member.
e) I don't think that offering PNAIs encouragement and or discouragement actually violates any GLO policies. Apparently saying things like "Good luck" is the equivalent of virtually sponsoring.
There's a recent post by a PNAI that involves her looking at one organization assuming it's the NPC one not the D9 one, there's nothing wrong with her question. The actual advice given is sane and NO ONE is jumping up and down saying "I'll sponsor you!!!!" The thread doesn't need to be locked, because it doesn't break any rules. And I don't think the rules should be changed so that it does. If you google for AI, GC is one of the first things to come up. That wouldn't change even if you removed the AI forum, because you'd have to delete all the threads as well. People are always going to come and ask questions here. It's a Greek site. I think it is more appropriate to answer the questions (even if the answer is negative, i'm not advocating SSBUB*) than to lock them with a PM.
Answering questions doesn't equal subverting GLO policies. If your GLO prohibits the answering of such questions, then I suggest that you avoid doing so. I'm not aware of any GLO that prohibits me from directing someone to talk to her friends or to dress up for a dinner with an alumna group.
I think it's silly to act like the NPC has a unified policy on this. If they come up with one, sure follow it, until then I don't see why sorority members can't behave appropriately (or have their posts deleted). I thought we were supposed to be the mature ones. Let the crazies show themselves and ruin their own chances. Let the normal people make their inquiries and get useful information (postive and negative).
GC is not an advertisment for AI, but we are a bunch of Greeks who can answer questions (if we wish).
And if you don't like getting PMs from potential AIs (something which wouldn't change w/o the forum) you're not being forced to respond. Delete them and move on with your day.
