This is all complete BS, but now that seed's been planted and even if it is complete BS, it's going to stick in the rushee's head.
I don't have a problem with rushees saying "well I didn't like ASA, they were too quiet for me" because rushees don't have an ulterior motive. But when members of other groups on that campus say it, you never know how much is true and how much isn't.

Dishonesty is a risk you run any time you ask a question on an internet message board.
I don't think one dishonest representation re: KD is going to bring their chapter down. People are just looking for additional information. They'll do their own homework.
You're also suggesting that people here have ulterior motives when writing about folks on other campuses. I don't understand that. Maybe some of us do, but frankly, most of us could care less where/what/if these kids decide to join.
