I'm okay with not being top tier, but I don't really want to be like the worst fraternity on campus. I mean if the guys are cool, I don't really care what anyone else thinks. What's your opinion on this?
I know, I sound like a dick for saying this. Joining a fraternity is a big investment for me as far as money and time goes. I just want to get the best experience out of my money. If the parties/girls aren't that great, then I may just want to keep my money. I don't want to pay $2000 a year to go to parties that I could go to as GDI. (I know its not all about the parties and girls)
Obviously you do care about what everyone else thinks if you are asking about it online.

I'm speaking as a girl here, and have no clue how the male mind works, but to me tiers really shouldn't matter. Even "bottom tier" organizations are a great experience. And if they try to get involved on campus then people will notice and want to interact with them.

Also, if you are joining a fraternity strictly for the parties and girls that's pretty shallow. You should join to gain a brotherhood, parties and girls should just be some of the perks.

If these guys are truly your friends it shouldn't matter what "tier" the fraternity is.
