Please just take it from a fairly new person on this board, and I've been reading this fairly interesting discussion.
I can see why this forum is really a bad idea to exist. I, like some others, happen to come across this forum and saw this thread. Obviously, it
"IMPLIED" us some
"REALLY WRONG" info that mislead us, despite whether it was intentionally misleading or not.
AI is invitation only - this was mislead by certain long journey posts that gave hopeful PNAM the illusion that we can do it to. That's why it's probably not a good idea to give special attention to these posts by making a seperate forum. Have them post in their respective GLO forums. I'm sure most members DO NOT want to mislead people.
The sticky about the the list of successful AI's should probably be taken off as well. While I understand that it's great to celebrate these successful women for making it through, it also allows PNAM to play guessing game as to which GLO does AI or what not. As most of you put it, these ladies are members, not second class citizens, so I personally do not see the need to post a list of AIs when it can give a potential to mislead people.
Also I
DO NOT think that members on this forum are Anti AI. I've been reading this forum and just can't see anything about bashing AI.
Also for the mods, I notice the thread about non-collegiate sororities has been taken down. I personally found it really useful, so I would hope to see it back. Also directing PNAM to nationals, or ever doing research on their local AA would be a way to go, if they do not have any ties or whatsoever. If they have friends in a sorority, encourage them to talk to them and help out with their chapter or whatsoever.
So i guess my point is that this forum will
MISLEAD people. A sticky would be good enough to do the explaining. GC shouldn't even take the burden of modding this forum...
That's just my 2 cents...
