i think it really lies with the fact that chit chat is just that---a place to shoot the shit about things that may or may not be important. anyone and everyone, greek or not, can relate to most of the topics because they don't have to do with being greek.
i don't think ANY of the NPC/IFC boards have problems either. so i don't think we should be comparing chit chat to NPHC alone. the specific boards are places where members or PNMs can go and talk about the org. these people USUALLY are either members or potential members. chit chat is not.
if anyone comes on to a specific GLO board and starts posting crap, whether it's the AXO, DST, AKA, or KKG board, the members and moderators immediately spring into action. these people are warned about their behavior and sometimes even investigated into to find out a real identity. these people who start drama usually want to be a member and just don't understand that they are completely out of line (until they're so tactfully told!!!) but since most want membership at some time, they change their tune.
now, on the chit chat or greek life forums, it is a community forum where greeks and non greeks all talk together. so you're not going to have the cohesiveness of a specific board. there are dozens of different groups that use the forums.
that's my take on the whole situation. i really don't think the chit chat forums should be compared to the NPHC forums. they're completely different. if we were comparing NPC and NPHC, then i could see a connection.
now, as to why certain groups do or do not use the chit chat and greek life forums, that is beyond me.
