It's just that, generally speaking, a rec is going to come from someone who actually knows you or can find someone who knows you. Sending stuff that can't be verified through a random website isn't how most of us like to find out whether people are worthy candidates for our organizations.

YES.

It's not that we're "big meanies."

It's just that recs should be written by someone who has at the very least, MET YOU.

Also, we're big on PNMs doing their own legwork to get recs. I mean, how hard is it to Google your local APH and contact them?

Yes, it's hard sometimes if you don't have many Greek contacts. But guess what? Before GC existed, PNMs managed to locate recs just fine.
