Instigating...kinda like what you're doing now, huh Via?
I know I said I'd call folks out once but I rethought & removed it. You call folks out & then what? More mess? No thank you. But again, it's "ONLY GC...it's cyberspace" so it shouldn't really matter, or does it? But since you're so willing to call folks out Via, go ahead, say what u want, just spell my name right.
Moke, I said is I knew what was posted. You're right, you can't do much with folks that don't want to communicate, but one way or another it would have been resolved...that's just me. And yeah, if the post was edited, it would still be there but there was that month of posts that were lost whne GC went down, again, just putting that out there. The whole mess is just unnecessary. Forgive me for trying to get isht cleared up. Apparently some folks like keeping up mess & complaining about it, I don't happen to be one of those people and I don't happen to like seeing folks I consider friends involved in it either.
Is it so wrong to ask WHY folks feel that they have to make out of the way comments and is it wrong to expect an answer as opposed to getting suggestion of how the question could have been better phrased? Is it so hard to give a reason why people say the things they do? I mean, was it that you lost your composure for a few moments or are you like this all the time? Were you only taught to love your organization and that the others are beneath you? Do you buy into the stereotypes and challenge anyone who tries to tell you that you're not like that? Or is it that you just don't care about any other letters but yours and you only interact because you feel you have to?
Is it necessary to throw our comments about being pre-occupied with coloring the world pink & green or crimson & cream in a thread about increasing visibility? Is it necessary to create a thread with the same name on your board in "response." Is it necessary to remind everyone every everytime a relationshiop with a fraternity is mentioned that you have a consitiutional bond with a fraternity? Is it necessary to assume/suggest that just because organizations bring in large lines that they are not bringing in quality members? Is it necessary to dismiss folks as being bitter rejects? Is it necessary to cut the monkey over some invisible prizes and bragging rights garnered from a network that we're supposed to be boycotting anyway??
It's like a mini-race war around here sometimes. I'm starting to see why folks look at us as glorified gangs...that's how we act.
