Dang that other "why" thread must have taken a turn after my "experience=children" post, because there wasn't any cursing or insulting going on before that.

What I don't understand is why any one poster is held in higher regard than others. It seems as though its ok for posters (mainly new ones) to insult people like OTW, yet its not ok for an older poster (like they signed up years ago) to "insult" (if that's what you wanna call it) someone else. That's pretty crappy moderating if you ask me.

Not all the moms are Helicopter Moms, and given how incredibly important sorority recruitment is- EASILY the MOST emotionally driven aspect of Greek Life- it needed a little bit of finesse in parts.
I'll admit I didn't read LL's original thread, it was moved before I even got to see it. Yet i'm confident enough in many GCers to know that if they are upset about it, then there is something wrong.

Mom's who are upset & sad are welcome to post, I don't think there is anyone here who is denying that. Yet, how many moms have come here peacefully. Pretty much none of them, they resort to all sorts of insults. Look @ what happened last night in Jill's thread. Calling members "nasty witches," hoping her daughter doesn't join our sorority, etc. That's what we go through practically everytime.

There are always going to be disagreements, but deleting/moving the topic does not help matters. Certain moderators don't seem to care about that. They care more about the new members' feelings & opinions, than they ever are about the older members. How is that right?
