You have a valid point, and it's a good question. The fact of the matter is, some GCers understand their sorority's policy on AI, and are conning the forum for reasons that they can't or may not be willing to discuss, due to the sensitive nature of sorority policy. For instance, I've been researching my own org's policies on AI -- having been totally clueless about AI before joining GC -- and I would probably have f-ing kittens if I saw someone trying to "shop" my sorority due to
my understanding of how it works in AXO. It is my opinion that I shouldn't publicize AXO AI any more than nationals does (i.e. NOT AT ALL) and I believe National's silence on the issue should be respected, but we all know that this is an internet chat board and nobody has to respect my wishes in the relative anonymity of cyberspace. When it comes down to it, I can type until I'm blue in the face and it may not change anything.
Other GCers may not be conning this forum because of their National's AI policies. So to address your question, not
all GCers are preaching their sorority's policy. Some may be conning it even though their Nationals is relatively open to meeting PNAMs from any situation. These women may feel that sorority shopping in AI undermines the integrity of their organization. As current members of their org, they have
every right to express this opinion. I also think it's a valid argument against the existence of this forum -- after all, if GC members don't like it and are speaking out against it, then maybe John will decide it's a good idea to take it down.
But again, this is an internet chat board, and the longer this debate rages on, the less likely it seems that this forum is going anywhere. At the end of the day, all of this may be a moot point.
