GreekChat Survival Guide: A Thread For ALL GC "Newbies" to READ, LOOK & DO NOT POST!

[AKA_Monet]

As eager as some of you interests, potentials and PMN's might be to join various GLO's, please, pretty please, refrain from posting ANY checks on your status to join. WE have YET to give you any answers! Thank you.

Also, new members, please refrain from replying, especially my sorors. It puts our pearls in jeopardy. Yes, sorors, it is as simple as that... Thank you.

Love, peas and hair grease...

[AKA_Monet]

Please be committed to service to all mankind!!! We all make choices in our lives.

Choose to be inspired!

Envy is worse than a waste of time. For when you hold on to thoughts of
envy, you are actively holding yourself back.

Envy builds a wall between you and the abundance that could otherwise be
yours. Envy can drain you of your best possibilities.

Do you ever resent it when someone else has acquired or achieved or
experienced some particular thing and you have not? If so, then your
envy actually makes your own situation worse.

Instead of being envious about the good fortune of others, be genuinely
thankful for it. That instantly puts you in a much better position to
create similar good fortune in your own life.

When you celebrate the achievements of others, you connect yourself in a
positive and empowering way to life's abundance. When you choose to be
inspired, your eyes will open to many more valuable and positive possibilities.

Be truly thankful for the success that you see around you. And that
success will soon become your own.

-- Ralph Marston

I heart AKA_Monet! I look forward to the weekly reminders

[squirrely girl]

just found this thread and have thouroughly enjoyed reading it. i could only think of a few things to throw out here...

1. definitely visit forums other than your own, even if you never get around to posting in them. i've absorbed a lot over these past few years from the NPHC forums in particular.

2. just because you're an individual and this is a message board, doesn't mean you aren't representing your org. i have tried to stay above it and not generalize, but i'm sorry, i still wonder what some orgs were thinking when they extended membership to certain GC posters...

2.5 - just because somebody wears your letters, doesn't make them right. i've seen too many people on here make COMPLETE ASSES of themselves while "defending" their fellow members (or new online BFF for that matter). if your fellow member or buddy is called out on their BS, just let it go. its been my personal experience that they probably deserved it. obviously if a fellow member is having COMPLETE LIES spread about them by people sticking their noses where they don't belong and talking about things they have NO BUSINESS discussing... well, exceptions are made...

3. grammar is your friend. i keep thinking that most of us are college educated (or in the process) but i'm sadly disappointed on a regular basis...

4. if you think you're anonymous, think again. likewise, if you think you can send PM's to random people with total lies/BS/members only business in them and NOBODY else will find out... wow! i could write some witty retort here, but i fear as though my wit would be wasted on your utter stupidity...

Dear newbies,

We will have our usual influx of new GC'ers coming in asking quite a few questions. Kindly direct them here to answer all their questions.

All newbie GC'ers, if you have lacked doing your research, do not post until you are absolutely sure that you have found the answer to your questions before posting on our AKA Ave. You will get shut down immediately if it violates the GC TOS, AKA International Rules and AKA POW.

Remember, we will NEVER discuss becoming a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.

Threats against ANYONE on GC is against the TOS when you registered. Making them or fooling them that you fortunately made that internet connection between real life and cyperspace is considered stalking, especially if it is unwarrented and unwelcomed. You should be banned pending agreement with the GC owner, John Hammell.

However, we at GC Hopsital want to uplift clients with the best of care and will provide thorough and medically relevant evaluations free of charge.

So when a moderator threatens someone with tracking their IP address and learning their identity, threatening a lawsuit, blackballing from an organization, or expulsion.... that's okay though, right?

This bears repeating for some newbies.
