I vote #4, to forget the idea. My thinking is that GC (Greek Chat) is a forum where Greeks can exchange ideas, etc. I love seeing other ChiOs on the boards.
If posters use Gamma Chi letters I think it does add some level of elitism to Greek Chat whether you mean to or not. We already have levels of GC posters (i.e., Sr. member). Do we need more?
A person I know once got called to task by many GCers because she only had a few posts and some felt she had "no right" to get upset about a situation that was occuring. In fact, more attention was paid to how many posts she had than the merits of what she said. Isn't this an example of de facto elitism?
My concern is that a Gamma Chi group would not serve as a positive influence for Greek Chat. I see no problem if a group of Greek Chatters want to go some place (i.e., Yahoo or MSN) and do a Gamma Chi thing of their own.
