I'm starting to feel this is a moot point. Mainly because we all have very, very strong opinions on AI. I feel like we are trying to "convince" each other of why or why not the forum should stay open.

The thing that is starting to worry me know is how this thread could be perceived by greeks and non-greeks.

We are all so incredibly careful around recruitment season making sure that we aren't saying anything negative and we are "positive, positive, positive". But then I get the impression that as soon as we come to the AI forum, all rules are out the window and we say what we want to say (hey I've totally been guilty of this too).

This is what worries me about this forum. I don't want a PNAI or even a PNAM to come into this forum and be like "wow, these women are really bitching at each other. Do I even want to be greek if this is how they behave?"

I don't want that and I'm 100% sure none of you want that!

The PNAM recruitment forum is filled with encouragement and congratulations. The AI forum is mixed with encouragment, discouragment, squabbling and arguing. (Again, I've totally been guilty of behaving this way so I'm not in any way trying to say I'm immune from this type of behavior).

But I just don't want to see that anymore.

I really hope this makes sense. It's 7:17 am and I'm not quite awake yet.
