(yea i know i am just asking for a HUGE response back here) well whatever i am just tired of the arguing. its just another dumb mtv show that makes for a good laugh on monday nights.

Okay, I don't think this post was directed toward me, but I am going to address the issues raised.
No one is "bashing" you guys. We are simply bringing to light another side of the argument, which caused SOME people to absolutely BLAST certain posters on a personal level.
Now before anyone says that they, too, were simply bringing a point to the table (i.e. Sigmas have cast all Greeks in a negative light), nope, don't buy it. Why? Because that is absolutely NOT what happened. Maybe that statement WAS made, but it was buried in between the gripes about new member's makeup no-no's and other comments that were downright catty. Most of these comments were not only directed toward the guilty parties (i.e. Candace and Jordan), but onto the ORGANIZATION AS A WHOLE. I think that this is the problem. Then when someone speaks up and says, simply, that the over-generalization was not called for, people absolutely BLOW things out of proportion and start getting tres defensive. Phisigchic...please stop reveling in that same old mantra. Your argument holds no merit because it supports exactly what you are arguing AGAINST! We can absolutely get over this, I am all for it. But before we do, I think one of your own comments speaks volumes...

Really? Would NEVER have guessed that by all of the posts that were SURE that this show was going to cause the death of the Greek system as we know it.
