I would with exactly what you said. It all depends on the AI.

Excuse me, but I thought that this was an open Greek Chat Web Site!

It is owned by one person only and not the property of a few people who want to feel that they want to own it.


Alphafrog, I know what I was refering to, but then again you seem to feel you know me better than I know my self.

There is or was a thread under navanes name, unless it was deleted that listed NPC members and what or how they handle AI.


Thank you for your undieing love anyway!

!
Right, it is an open site. But most people have the common sense not to participate in the discussion of something they don't know anything about.

Was that the one where you and two of your sisters got called out for being AI hypocrites?

Wasn't that the one where I asked a certain moderator to stop harassing me?

Yeah, that's it. I'm pretty sure it was moved.

And Tippie's still recovering from dental surgery. I can only imagine how apeshit she'll be when she gets back.

Wait...I'm confused. Are you actually saying that you'd want someone who sorority shopped, and then found and AIed GPhiB to sponsor other women who are sorority shopping, and use that other AI for a "quick in"?

Ok...now I'm confusing myself. This is too much. Just please stop the sorority shoppers before they drive me cuckoo.

For me it wouldn't matter, but I would want the sister to be active. Like I wouldn't want her to have gone through the entire AI steps to just initiate, do a couple of things and walk away. Does that make sense? But that would go for any alum in my book.

Like I'm active in the local alum association. There are some sisters who "pop up" once every like 2-3 years to an event and then they are gone. Would I feel it is appropriate for one of them to come in and be like "hey I've got someone I would love for y'all to meet for possible AI membership"? No, but I would meet the person because I don't feel I should blame them or hold them accountable for the members behavior. Does that make sense?

Makes sense to me.

I was more worried about the PNAI who finally fulfills her lifelong dream of being in a sorority after contacting 8 different groups and finally getting into one who decides to "help" other women fulfill their lifelong dream of being in a sorority...and well...you get the picture...
