I think the thing to find out is their history. In this thread I mentioned earlier, I know for a fact that AXD never had a chapter there, so they weren't de-chartered. However, if a group lost its charter, it wouldn't offend me if it formed a local very similar to the national - it would be hard to give up the symbols dear to you. It would offend me if they were straight-out copying in the hopes of some day getting a charter - they may never, and then they're just trading off of our good name. Make any sense?
I wouldn't worry if they lost their charter. It could have been years ago, and the problems are now gone. Even if it was more recently, the sisters could have worked hard to turn itself around. The fact that you don't consider them a small, quiet chapter speaks volumes - it sounds like they have their act together.
And there is the possibility that their similarities with DZ are coincidental. Give them the benefit of the doubt until you know for sure.
