I am new here and do not belong to any "other" websites, but from the responses left to the OP I have to say it does not reflect well on those who responded. He does not come off to ME, someone who is also new to greek chat communities, as anything but excited and inquisitive. I took "exclusive" as one of the more difficult houses to get into. Regardless I hope that my post does not garner equally mean responses and I am not even coming to the OP's defense as much as any new poster on the site here. I would like to think we are all welcome. Maybe the OP has said some things in the "other" website that have created some ill feelings, but as a new person here, and to greek chat in general, I would have no knowledge of this, and after all, what we say to others reflects more about ourselves than them.
Only my second post, aside from my introduction and already I am turned off. Sad.

Good grief can you clutch your pearls any tighter?

Not uptight, just trying to keep things classy. Thank you for asking though.

Dear DGMom, please read through the site more thoroughly before you jump in and comment.

Yes, ProudDGMom's post was an over-reaction. Yes, it never goes over well when a newbie plays the "y'all are mean" card. And yes, I will always maintain that the word "classy" just should never be used. Ever.

But way to prove her point. Good job there.

No need for a newbie to be lecturing newer members.
