Everytime I saw UF_Pike, I cringed:

1) as an alumna of UF, I was ashamed to see my university's reputation (and please note - he will not graduate from UF) lowered by his inane postings.

2) as an alumna of Kappa Delta, I was embarassed by his reference to my chapter at UF.

3) as the sister of a Pi Kappa Alpha member, I shuddered to think of the destruction of the fraternity's good name, esp. when other Pikes asked him to refrain.

4) as a woman, I thought his msgs were in poor taste..period.


Whoever owns the website makes the rules. Free speech doesn't reign on here, as it does NOT in the U.S. - there are boundaries. However, if you want TRUE free speech, do it on your own turf, where you can make your own rules.

I don't see this banning as censorship at all. GC will continue on, a bit more harmoniously. Sure, there will always be the next guy/girl - but the moderators are here for a reason.

Thanks.
