1) kaeb's join date is July 2010. Not sure that qualifies as a long-time poster. I don't consider myself a long-time poster.
2) kaeb has admittedly never participated in formal recruitment and is not familiar with the MOI, RFM, etc.
3) MY OPINION: Repeating hearsay and gossip is NOT Panhellenic in spirit, and is harmful to all parties involved. I will not stand for that and will speak up and call it out when I see it. For starters, you can't ever unring that bell; and there are going to be people who'll say "I heard that" or "I happen to know that" and perpetuate rumors as fact. This is not good for individual chapters, or for the system as a whole. It is hurtful and can cause a chapter to wither and die. I've seen it happen more than once. We should NOT be attacking other chapters or speculating on any situation without knowing specifics. How is this helpful?
4) Panhellenic officers and RCs should not be discussing confidential matters with non-Panhellenic officers and anyone else. This troubles me. We need to have confidence in those who've been elected to serve all chapters.
5) I have sent an email to inquire about QAs being restricted as a "punishment" and if I get an answer I will share it. I'm not even going to venture a guess on this.
5) Bottom line up front: this is all ridiculous. We all need to step back (me included) or this thread will be locked. I personally am quite thrilled with the health of the USC greek system and offer congratulations to all the chapters. I can't wait to see the Presents photos this year!
aside: ellebud, check your email in a couple of hours, please. long overdue news coming your way...
