Yes, it is a little foolish to make "WannaB_A_Whatever" as your screen name, but in turn, is biting someone's head off really the best way to guide them to the light? As an EOS, I have been asked questions about membership. It seems as if Masons and EOS are the only orgs who do not jump on the pedestal and belittle prospective members. This is supposed to be a educational and social site, correct?
2) Thank you for your answer, ignoring the sarcasm and worst-wishes.  |
I just can't help but be helpful, despite my reservations...
Here's my issue, saying that you're going to be in an organization is presumptuous and offensive. As a non-member you don't know what this organization looks for in their membership so you
cannot determine that you posses those qualities. Discretion and humility go a long way in your situation. People are belittled here for being stupid - you can read posts of humble people with decent questions / people who realize their questions are inappropriate and thank everyone before going back under the radar.
