Why not 2 forums - Women Alumnae Initiation and Men Alumni Initiation

[PhiRhoSister]

I did not read all of the posts in the "Petition for new moderator for Alumni Initiation Forum," but wouldn't it be easier to just have 2 separate forums. One forum for Women Alumnae Initiation, with at least 1 moderator from a NPC group. One forum for Men Alumni Initiation with the present moderators of the Alumni Initiation forum.

This could solve the problem of moderators and the different aspects of women's AI and men's AI. It might also encourage more men to consider AI, since they could actually find AI stories from other men instead of weeding through all the women AI stories. Just a thought.

We have only had one man so far who has pursued alumni initiation. It is less common in fraternities. Creating a separate forum for it would probably just end up being a waste of space and John's time.

Ditto to KLPDaisy, but I'm not sure that a lot of Fraternities actually AI.

I think if there was a large male interest then we'd be hearing more about it.

Or no forum at all for AI?

I think there's enough interest in the AI forum. Look how many PNAMs there are, and there are a lot of alum issues such as advising, running chapters, etc. that should be seperate from that I think.

It really does seem that both forums work fine, why fix what ain't broke.

It is broke and has been for a LONG time.

I don't think it's any more "broken" than any other area of this forum. It's open to discussion. The PNAMs seem to be doing alright and getting generally good advice. A mod should step in when fights break out, but there aren't a lot here.

What's broke about it?

It isn't broken despite the attempts by some of you to break it.

But that's heresy! Just think of the great disservice we'd be doing by doing away with it!

This would kind of be like 2 threads called "How to Make Cups with Puffy Paint: Women" and "How to Make Cups with Puffy Paint: Men."

While AI is VERY RARE in NPC sororities, it is even rarer in NIC fraternities.
