*sigh*
What to say, what to say? More power to you for feeling the need to start your own organization but, I'm not impressed. Comparing the stated purpose of Theta Psi Phi to the content of the site, I have a hard time believing this organization is committed to self-education, or education of any type simply because of the sheer number of grammar and punctuation errors.
Second, you have a community service coordinator, but NO community service projects, upcoming or otherwise, are listed on the site. Again, that doesn't reflect well on the organization's commitment to its purpose & mission. Yeah, I know, just because it's not advertised does not mean it's not being done. But as an organization looking to expand I would think you'd be more eager to let people know exactly what it is you're about on your own website rather than trying to defend your organization on a sorority message board.
A third point of concern is the the lack of a professional image. It's fine to provide visitors with brief biographies of the founding members, but to have "shout outs" and personal statistics of the people who are most important to the organization's expansion & growth right now severly diminishes the perception of credibility. Honestly, as the site stands, it DOES look like a glorified dating service, as someone mentioned in one of your FAQs. If you want your organization to be taken seriously, it is imperative that a solid, polished and PROFESSIONAL image be conveyed, ESPECIALLY if it's one that's being transmitted worldwide like it is now with your website.
Since you're a very young group with no track record of exemplary projects or notable members, your image is EVERYTHING to you. It is IMPERATIVE that you put your absolute best foot forward. My suggestion is that you take a GOOD look at your website and compare it not to the websites of the D9 organizations, but of your fellow up and coming organizations. Compare the image that they have put forth with yours. Network with them, learn from their mistakes. Learn for YOUR mistakes. Most importantly, LEARN FROM CRITICISM.
Like CrimsonTide4 said, you are GOING to have critics. That's not going to suddenly stop when you get 10,000 or 50,000 or 200,000 members. In MOST cases your critics are not "hatin" on you. As a side note, WHY is it that when someone makes a critical comment about someone or something they're labeled a "hater"? My personal view is if one feels "everyone" is "hatin" on them, that person has some self-esteem issues. But I digress. Criticisms are made so you can GROW and DO BETTER. Your biological family did/does it so why are you expecting anything less from your African American family?
While you're praying for your "haters,"
pray for guidance and solid leadership. Pray for strength. Pray for the courage to realize that the energy you're spending to defend your organization to people whose opinions you don't seem to think matter can be better spent improving your organization so that the organzation's accomplishments will speak for themselves.
