There is know need to be rude or hostile. Also remeber that you are always wearing your letters.
You can definitely give advice to PNMs.. But based on YOUR experiences, not what others have gone through. If you want to tell another PNM how you're preparing for recruitment conversations, or where you obtained your recs, that's fine.. Feel free to help them all you want. But when you start talking about what sisters are expecting (especially without prefacing it by saying you're not a sorority member), that's a whole different ballgame. Because even if you give good advice 99% of the time, giving a PNM bad/incorrect advice just that one time could be detrimental to their recruitment.

And you'll find yourself making enemies here REAL fast.
