What I am hoping posters here mean by "less loved PNMs" are the ones that they liked enough to invite to pref (and, essentially, place on their bidlist), but are not necessarily the chapter wide "rush crushes", or women that have been talked up ad nauseam throughout recruitment. They think..."Okay, we got these girls and they seem pretty good, but we didn't get SUPER PNM PATTY who HAD to be higher on our bidlist...NOT FAIR!" Some PNMs are generally very visible to a chapter during recruitment, and when these PNMs do not choose the chapter on bid day, many chapters, especially the strong ones, may see women they may have liked but not LOVED, and determine the whole thing unfair and blame quota additions. Or they think that because those women are not there, they had to dip far lower onto the bid list, which may not be the case.
The funny thing to me, is that after a few years of recruitment, I've noticed that these members who were more under the radar during recruitment often become some of the best members. While I felt welcomed into my chapter, I don't think I was some sort of PNM superstar, and I know I surprised a bunch of older actives by being as active as I was in the Greek community. Often (but not always), SUPER PNM pledges and is either all about partying or generally not that involved.
