Do you want to tell the college alums who have realized later in life what being greek could have done for them "what the hell are you doing here" when all they want is Cutiepie2000's awesome advice on Alum Initiation? No, I didn't think so. Stop perpetuating the stereotype that greeks are exclusive - in my opinion, everyone is welcome at greekchat.

But it's okay for people to come here solely for the purpose of stirring up sh!t? Look through their posts. I think it's a pretty legitimate question to ask why someone is here, because all they have done is stir up trouble.
I'm think that it was "very unfair" and "extremelly rude" for you to say this to me, especially as a mod. You're putting words and contexts in my mouth that weren't there. I never said that nongreeks had no business here. But questioning someone's interests in this board when all they've done is been mean and hurtful is a valid point in my book. This user has said a countless number of very nasty things to many many members of this board, including myself. I consider a number of people on this board to be my "friends" and some of them are actually my sisters.
One of the great things about being Greek is supporting your friends/sisters/brothers (whatever you choose to call them). When someone is constantly saying nasty things and trying to start crap with my friends, I'm going to call them on it.
And if that makes me "very unfair", "extremelly rude", "perpetuating stereotypes that greeks are exclusive" or whatever else you want to say i'm being, then so be it.
I'm sticking up for my friends, and myself.
