As a "less strong recruiting chapter," (LSRC) I've seen members get upset over QAs, thinking it meant that they had to go all the way to the bottom of the bid list. As a LSRC, actives often have to make choices about "lesser of two evil" PNMs. If you've never made quota, and suddenly you make quota plus, but you see some of your lesser-loved PNMs at bid night (and not some of the ones you've loved), and no one ever explained QAs to you (your rush crush who swore up and down that she wanted to join your chapter, may have been in the MIDDLE of your bid list), it seems like the system is working against you. BECAUSE you can't make many cuts, QAs seem like a punishment.
I will add that many of these NMs have become valued actives, but several were nothing but trouble as long as they were around. Like any NM class, I guess.
