I just wondered what the OP thought she would accomplish posting this in a bunch of other places, when it appears that this is the most relevant place to ask about Greek Life.

It seemed stalkerish that you had found her so many places under so many usernames...and that you cared enough to post them all.

This isn't GC's first rodeo with this topic. LOL. Perhaps it would seem different if ree-Xi had posted one website or just said "I see you posted this elsewhere." I would only be bothered if this included a name, photo, or contact info posted on another site.

Yep. Then others could Google at will. It comes off differently.

Newbie lesson #2 - you can start a thread, but you can't control it, try as you might.

DrPhil's (now edited so I look like a nerd) post about not everyone in "your" thread is necessary talking "to you".
And no, we can't. Lesson #3, asking to get back on topic is counterproductive 99% of the time.

LOL. I had to check the previous posts to see that AnchorAlumna may have been typing to the OP. The jury's still out.
Other than that, not everyone is typing to and about the OP.

I feel like your signature is speaking to me...except it missed the random elipses that I'm also fond of...

Ellipses are quite dramatic...if I may say so myself...perhaps it is just one of those things....

I don't understand what is so difficult to put up with here. Are you just mad that this thread isn't all about you?
ETA: Love the... very appropriate and quite funny... pic, AF.

The OP should be happy that I stayed out of this until now. If I do say so myself, I believe I do off topic thread derailing quite well. It comes from being an associational chainer instead of a linear sequential. Although, I must say, I am analytical, but don't do it in an organized fashion. It's more like from A to Z through a whole lot of interesting (to me, at least) detours. And doesn't take much time at all. At least not to me.
And OP, I don't know why you are asking us for fashion advice and then arguing. We're Mean and Evil. At least, I am. Or so I've been told.
No, wait, I gave up the title. Who'd I give it to?
Now I'm thinking I don't know what elipses are.
And I'm not a YOU PEOPLE. That is offensive. /slams door.
