As a PNM who is about to rush next week, I can honestly say that "shameless plugs" have no effect on me whatsoever... and I have a hard time imagining that these affect anybody with half of a braincell. If rushees are really taking to heart what is being said on a public internet forum so much as to have their decisions swayed, then perhaps those are the rushees are a bit weak-minded.
Shameless plugs, in my humble opinion, are just enthusastic responses from someone who was kind enough to take interest in my rush thread.

It's really wonderful that GCers are so concerned over PNMs... but isn't Greek Chat primarily for Greeks, first and foremost?
As a PNM, I appreciate, without a doubt, all of the help and advice that's been given to me on this forum, and yet, I'm also amazed that those of you in a GLO are willing to censor yourselves in a forum that was basically created for those in Greek Letter Organizations... I hope you won't change yourselves to be too "PC" in order to cater to the PNMs on this board, which I think, are far less in numbers than actual Greek members. I love you folks just the way you are

Out of the mouths of PNMs truly come nuggets of wisdom!
I couldn't have said it any better than Annie has done in her two posts above: if you think shameless plugs are truly harmful, then don't do 'em. But if you agree with what Shark-in-skirt has said and that shameless plugs don't matter and if you wanna keep doing 'em, So What?
