That being said, as I advised earlier, I do think she should stop posting and just become a reader.

All I'm saying is that I've read some negative recruitment outcomes, presumably, based on the way PNMs have approached sorority members on GC. There seems to be a correlation between bad attitude on GC and the PNM not getting a bid, even in COB/COR. It is not a hard and fast rule, just a correlation.
And while it may not be a big deal to you Alumiyum, which is fine, it is a big deal to some. Just as you want people to respect your perspective on the situation, you need to realize that there are more ways people view it than you.
For me personally, as SigmaDiva, no, it would probably not be a big deal to me either. But, if you read SamathaBay's comments and some of the responses the GC regulars gave her, it was apparent that she said some very nasty things to people in a PM. So, while she may not have come across too bad on the board, I gathered that she said some nasty things "behind" the board. It's that stuff that people remember and talk about, and can hurt the PNMs chances.
