oh - well, let's look at it like this: why do we have GLOs, then a separate set of HBGLOs? Don't you think the split here mirrors the split there, in some small way?
For instance - NPHC organizations were started with specific interests and goals of the black community in mind, and while these are certainly goals that can be (and should be) embraced by the white folk, they concentrate on the black community and its needs more than any other.
Perhaps this same logic can apply to our greekchat communities - the HBGLO forums tend toward topics more pertinent and important to their members, and they happen to hold discussion in a much different (and efficient, and entertaining, and...) manner than the chitchat crowd does.
Does this make sense? I feel like certain parallels exist here, but I don't think I'm making the connections on paper. I think the main point is the backgrounds of the very organizations involved would seem to play a role in each particular side of greekchat ('white' and 'black', or more appropriately 'GLO' and 'HBGLO') embracing the community aspects that it does.
