Don't know what prompted this apology, but okay.
I've always suggested to my fellow mods and John that there should be some kind of "stickied READ THIS FIRST!" post at the beginning of the most trafficked forums (namely Greek Life and Chit Chat). I know many of the individual GLO forums have it, so I'm still wondering why the General Forums don't (I know some do, they just don't really touch on GC etiquette).
I'll be the first to admit that I'm not the nicest person out there. There have been times where I've been "taken aside" by my fellow sisters (some even by those in my Official Family) about my behavior toward some GCers. While I value their opinions and it's difficult to adapt most of the time, it's their advice that I value the most, so I take them seriously. You mentioned something in the now-closed Open Letter thread in GL about not pleasing everyone, and you shouldn't. I just got concerned because some of your posts made some of your sisters want to bang their heads on the wall. They just want the best for you and for you to have a good experience here online.
That being said, most GLOs have a forum mod out there who's willing to help you in any way. Use them. PM them, AIM them if you're ever having any concerns on GC. They're not just there to lock or close threads.
Please don't let anything I (or ANYONE else on GC for that matter) said run you off GC because I think you really can positively contribute to the boards.
Just try to get a feel for things, and hopefully you'll be able to understand where most of us are coming from.
