I don't think a single fraternity where I'm at would let in a gay. P.S. - if you have an opinion that someone somewhere might take offense with, they'll ban you for it in a heartbeat. banned Southernfratter and bowsandtoes just for this thread, and they weren't even being offensive...this website is a farce. And no, neither of those was me.

If it's such a farce, then why come on here? Did we make you come here?

I'm on here because one of them is my pledge brother and I figured I'd make a screen name and point it out while bored at work. He simply got a message that said he was banned, no reason given, and this was the only thread he'd really posted in. Other greek-related forums are considerably freer. This one might as well be controlled by the Chinese government, or possibly SigEp nationals. Ban me, delete my posts, whatever...trust me I'm not too invested in this.

As I said, bored at work, might as well sit back and watch the show..hope one of you obliges. Think I'll go check out my fraternity's forum and see how gay we are nationally.

We're all here for something. Stop announcing why you're here. Checking your fraternity's forum to see "how gay you are nationally" is gay. Enjoy.

"This was the only thread he'd really posted in". Then neither could be your pledge brother, because both had made a lot of posts in this discussion and other threads.

And do you think that anyone on here honestly believes that "bowsandtoes1000" wasn't just a new name for a previously banned poster?

Do you think it really matters? If so he clearly learned his lesson because nothing he posted was particularly offensive, much less over the top.

Apparently bowsandtoes wasn't available...it is a fairly common fraternity term after all, if the anti-hazing fanatics at your school haven't gotten to it yet.
