Some of you are making this more than what it is.

That's one hell of a leap you appear to be making (but maybe I'm assuming incorrectly that you're making that leap?)
Are you saying that by listing three organizations we respect on a national level that we are in essence saying that we don't respect any others? Who said that they respected 3 and no others? In 5 pages? Anyone?
It appears that you are really digging here for something to be offended about. This is a good thread.
That said, I didn't comment on NPC organizations because organizationally, I don't perceive there to be much difference between any of them. That may be ignorance talking, but to an outsider, that's the way they appear.

I actually know the inner workings - or the basic inner workings - of only 2-3 GLOs, and that would include mine. That's why I decline to say which I respect on a national basis, because I wouldn't want to post an uninformed opinion.

I don't think anyone here is under the assumption that their org is not respected. 
I think it is just the fact that it could be confused with some kind of popularity contest.

Bingo. Which, because of the lack of information, is what this is.

So you would seek a moratorium on any kind of positing in which the poster is uninformed?
It's an internet message board for chrissakes.
A reader can reasonably expect that posters are all limited to their own small areas of experience. Are you seriously worried about some kiddo reading this thread and deciding not to rush your org because you didn't get enough votes?

I'm not offended, sheesh people. I think you all know me better than that.
I don't really understand the point of this thread, especially since there's no criteria or anything really. I'm free to say that, sorry if you don't like it.
I just don't see this as being much different of a thread than the much-loathed "how's XYZ on your campus" threads. But whatever.

Not at all. Are you really thinking that most people who post here make reasonable assumptions? Because if you do, I have some land for sale...

Thank you Captain Obvious.
It still causes similar ideas as those threads, which is possibly what she meant.

I don't think it's like those threads at ALL. The focus in this thread is positive, whereas the focus in those threads can go any which way. Plus, I think 99 percent of the people on these boards understand that local chapter does not equal national organization, which means that nobody is going to post, "OMG I respect Tri Delta because they're all hot and know how to party!!!1!"
Anybody who thinks that a PNM would choose to not rush a certain house based on what is said in this thread is underestimating them, and if I were a PNM, I would be offended at peoples' perceptions of my intelligence or lackthereof.

Is the intent of the thread better conveyed by "Top three GLOs you admire on a national level"? We all respect each other, (I hope!) but there are some programs are truly worthy of admiration.
