I mean the whole point of this is to provide help and support to our loved ones going thru the process, which can be so brutal. I just want to say this site has both helped me and hurt me. That being said, I still love to read the posts. I will be more of a reader than a poster in the future but I guess that's ok too.

IIRC the "poor dad from Ole Miss" got called out on his misinformation by me and a few other posters. And that thread went South (pun intended) when another GC poster went off the deep end. There was no meanness in that particular thread until she entered the scene.
I won't start a fight, but I won't back down from one; and I will never let misinformation go uncorrected. Like my Panhellenic sisters who've posted above in this thread (and +1 to your comments/observations), I am not blowing sunshine and rainbows; and trust me, you haven't seen me be mean. Blunt, yes. Mean? Hardly. You don't want to see me be mean. Take my word for it. I'm not putting on kid gloves for anyone when it comes to misinformation; most especially when it comes from non-NPC posters. But don't call it "mean" when one of us says something that you don't like. And, if you have a problem with me or anyone else, take it to the source directly. That's what adults do.
Too blunt for you? Probably. Mean? Hardly.
