Its interesting that you quoted that part of my comment....and then said something about my amount of posts in 6 months. Again, I post during the day, usually while in class or at the office when I don't have anything to do. The summer long internship also lead to a lot of posting.....I have a great social life filled with bars, fraternity parties, sorostitute functions, road trips, etc. etc. You can take that however you want....I really don't care.

.........I don't, however, get emotionally attached to this place nor do I take anything on here as seriously as some of you. Its a website, not a matter of life and death. The fact that there was actually some sense of "drama" on here, mostly concerning, again, a senile old man, was rather humorous to me.......so I made a thread. Oh well.

Brother;
I agree with you...interesting how some people try to live their lives here while controling the board...

You SAE's sure are acting as the circle of brothers eternal - you guys always have each others back, even outside of loyalty, friendship, honor and fraternity. What year were you guys founded?

It really must be awesome being a sigma chi at a second rate university. I bet yall are true brothers in every sense of the word. I would ask you what you're doing this weekend, but it probably involves watching one of our schools play football on tv, while sitting in your dorm room splitting a 6 pack of sky blue. Hell yeah bro, brotherhood. Other fraternities probably waste their time on networking and girls and parties, but nah, we're here for the brotherhood. Way to stay above the riff raff, bro.

Calling someone a name on a message board liek this, like you do in almost every thread your a part of isn't getting worked up over nothing?

Grow up and stop calling people names....

Does pointing it out make any difference?
And I think we have all seen a great deal worse, which is what Mac' was pointing out and NO ONE seemed to make a great deal about that....besides the group that was doing it.....

SigmaChiGuy;
I do truly hope that you were making a joke based on Mac's and mine sigs or tags.

If not, our Fraternity's history is not that hard to find on-line.

Nor is yours:

SigmaChiGuy · #12 09-30-2006, 07:03 PM

I know more about YOUR fraternity than you do, trust me.

Well, my own Mother knows about one third of our grip (she dated a Brother while both in college)....and why would someone make a claim to know more about someone elses fraternity is well beyond me....well I did find out about another Fraternity's Pledge Hazing/Hellweek because a pledge there was a bit too trusting and/or stressed out over the phone during it...that is all I learned and I did not try to learn anymore as it was NOT my business....As it is NOT mine to know yours...even if one of my close friends is one of your Brothers......

P.S.: SigmaChiGuy: Please feel more than welcome to continue this in a PM and OFF the board.

That's the "problem" right there.

This is a forum for discussions about Greek issues or to just come and hang out periodically.

But for some it is clearly a focal point of life- and at the expense of on topic discussion.

It is also at the expense of the person who pays for all of this and the time he and the moderators spend to keep things on track.

Being neither an owner or a moderator I get the luxury of not having to deal with that directly, but it is annoying to see really good discussions about serious issues get derailed.

Chapters are run by college kids who, if they are lucky, get periodic guidance from advisors who have lives of their own and cannot be there every second. And then there are the many rushees who have little knowledge of Greek Life.

This forum can be a much needed resource for sharing info and ideas among people who NEED it.

It is also a good place to just chat sometimes for those who want that- but why does this aspect of it have to come at the expense of the other? Why can't all the personal/social fulfillment stuff stay HERE in Chit Chat and be away from the other forums?
