An Open Apology

[KSUViolet06]

I'm sorry, but anyone who forms an opinion of Phi Mu based on the interwebz is not smart, and probably doesn't belong in college.

Did you ever think of the potential Greek members who visit the boards? They don't know any better. Plus many of our organizations have high up Nationals officers who lurk. Some wouldn't care about that, but I do. There's a way to express your opinion without disrespecting and putting others down.

To PM Mama:

als463 has been given too much power. Laugh at her, scoff at her, tell her to fuck off if you must...whatever floats your boat and finds your lost remote. Aspirants who are turned off by her are young and foolish--you all will have thousands more to take their places. National officers who lurk can contact als463 via PM if they care so much and have nothing better to do with their time.

More importantly, if members of Phi Mu on this board really care about this beyond just a couple of Phi Mu posters' opinions, I suggest that they congregate somewhere other than on the main board if they don't want outsiders' opinions on the matter.

Oh, I don't care if outsiders give their opinions. And you're right about not being able to make someone care about what you care about. It happens all the time on the internet and real life. I just don't like someone acting like an ass with our letters in their sig. My point in that one post was that we aren't supposed to drink in letters and so on... you get it.

My opinion:

If your rule book covers Internet posts (some protocol books do), send the reminder to als463 and wash your hands of it.

I honestly didn't know she was a Phi Mu until you commented to her about it one day--I may've thought she was a ZTA because of that ZTA thread (LOL). That's how much some people pay attention to what orgs most usernames are in. Signature or no signature.

Can I just say how DELIGHTFULLY tickled I am that one of the ads in this thread is for Fool.com?

Ditto - and for what it's worth, I think your pink font rocks.
