While I agree with you, it's not completely unheard of to have "renegade" chapters that do not follow the National's rules.

To the OP: It is possible that the active members are just trying to mess around with your head. Not saying that's OK or right in any way, but it's a possibility.

At one time, I knew of a chapter which actually inflicted physical harm on members during initiation. Sorry, this isn't so far-fetched that it's unbelievable.

Thank you. I wondered why people were acting so naive. It obviously isn't an official part of the initiation ritual, but we all know it does happen unofficially.
