And no I don't find myself using nicknames for other houses, that would be a matter of disrespectful. I prefer to represent myself and my organization as well as I possible can.

There's no helping the way you feel - my qualms are not with that at all, and kudos for your love for greek-dom etc.
I'm merely stating that intimating that I am a poor representative of my fraternity b/c I don't actively fight the propagation of nicknames seems a bit of a stretch, to me, and that's just the way I feel as well.
I could have toned down my response, but I am just tired of my fellow greeks coming in with the same stereotypes and attitudes towards public perception of greek life, which promotes stagnation rather than dynamism in the greek world.
