Outside observer
As someone who has been keeping up with the NPC rush results here on GC, out of total curiosity about the whole process, I would agree that one should not post unconfirmed information. It makes the poster look bad because he/she posted the information and the pnm feel bad because he/she did not live up to the expectation of getting a bid.
I think what happens is that the pnm comes on and describes his/her situation (pre-recruitment) and we (the GC thread reader) get caught up in the excitement and the thought of a new member in an org. I've read a few of the individual rush threads and there have been 5-7 pages of well wishes and good luck (as it should be) BEFORE the recruitment process has started. I think that is a set up for high expectations.
Personally, my advice to any pnm of any org (NPHC/MCGLO/NPC/IFC/Local) is to go through the recruitment process and when it is over then describe what happened and all. That way if the pnm going through does not get a bid then we will never know and there will not be any expectation by the thread reader or embarrassment by the pnm.
