Here are my follow up thoughts.
1) Somebody had cancer? Regardless of their personality, I hope they're okay. That's a sensitive area for me.
2) I don't even know who is in the Harem. The more important question is who is the sultan?
3) EE needs to stop jocking the Death Squad. 
4) DEATH SQUAD, WHAT!
5) Does admitting that I'm still hot help everyone find that common ground they need to begin reconcilliation?
6) Can we also have a moratorium on people saying that I'm hot?
7) What exactly is the way of the cougar? Do I really want to know?
8) Aren't we overdue for another blackface thread?
9) Other than the Grapist...I'm not feeling the "fake" screen names. I know, it doesn't matter what I feel about them, but recently, they've seem to be a little more....purposefully annoying. I'd personally just rather see some insightful posts.

Here's the perspective of someone who has no clue what's going on and hopes not to know.
1) Cancer sucks. I would hope everyone would wish the person well regardless of what they said.
2) I am totally the (un)official Sultan. All at the same time if I'm lucky.
3) Pass.
4) Pass.
5) It's true. <opposite gender> wants to be with him/her and <same gender> wants to be him/her. I know I do, whichever the appropriate one may be.
6) Just cause you're hot doesn't mean you get all sorts of special requests. Awww, who am I kidding, yes it does.
7) It's all about Tiger Claw anyway.
8) I think you're right. I haven't even been here a month and I managed to "enjoy" most of those.
9) Pass.
Now to be a bit more serious. I don't know if it's been mentioned or not, but I think one thing people need to recognize is that everyone who posts here and is in a org represents not only their org but all greek life. Sure it's one thing to say that in the Risk Management or sex threads, but try and keep that in mind in ALL of your threads. Removing a GLO or changing a name won't really amount to squat if Johnny and Suzy GDI/PNM waltz in here and see a bunch of squabbling greeks. I'm not saying you have to like everyone, but I think you should all try and be civil. You know, much inthe same way you would deal wiith a co-worker whom you cannot stand. People are dying for a reason to hate us, let's not give them anymore than they already have. As for creating fake LJ's and the such, unless the person goes to your school, who really cares? This is the internet. I always think it's sad when chat/board drama goes beyond the rom or site. Perhaps I just don't understand the site dynamics, but as an outsider looking in, it's rather foolish. Had I seen this or other bickering threads before I read anything else on this site, I not only probably would have skipped registering, but I probably would have decided to write of giving greek life at my school a second shot. Just thought I'd give you guys something to chew on if you haven't already. Who knows, you may not listen to me at all. That's up to you. I had a lot more to say, but I really don't think I need to. You'll all either hear what I have to say or you won't. Either way, I'm done for now.
