My use of a K instead of a C was simply a way to see which of you don't like me.
I'm sorry, but that's really lame. We're not here to play mind games, we're here to discuss subjects that interest us. Also note that you used it later in your post. The reason people jump on poor spelling of a language is because they think it denotes ignorance of the language or of the culture. If I were to leave an accent off of a french word, I'd have people correcting me on a french board. Or if I made a pronoun female instead of male I'd have the same problem.

I think the reason a lot of people have jumped on you is because they did not join their GLO for the reasons you listed, and because you're upholding a stereotype that many look upon as negative, and causes problems for the Greek system as a whole. It brings down recruitment numbers and causes people to pre-judge us without even getting to know us.
