A general statement does not require any reference to AKAs coming to you about YOUR frat brother.

Another sucky moderator.

I don't need you to validate my comments nor my actions. This issue speaks to mutual respect and uplift that the majority of my fraternity Brothers value. You are not a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity and seemingly are clueless regarding values that we hold dear. To that end, stay in your lane as I know how to drive.

I don't need you to need me to validate your comments nor your actions. A reminder of mutual respect does not require the references used in your OP. If your reminder to your frat was a general one in tone, none of us would have commented.

But, most of us commenting aren't Alphas, yet you respond to me only. Selective, indeed. The values that you hold dear are nothing to be clueless about, and they don't include what you tried to do with this thread. My lane is wherever this thread is. My lane is not, however, in PMs which is where your stupidity should have been sent.

If this thread had been created by a nonmoderator, the original post may've been edited to remove the AKA references or a moderator would say "brothers, take it to PM" and closed the thread.

Apparently, messiness is only tolerated from moderators.

You're the one who chose to air this publically, so if you're getting out-of-lane feedback calling you on the hypocricy of your post, you've got no one to blame but yourself.

It raises a red flag to me when one brother/sister calls out another brother/sister on the open board.

It raises an even bigger flag when the brother/sister doing the calling out is a moderator of the forum.

I really don't understand why the original post couldn't have been left to PM, especially since there are already threads (including a sticky thread at the top of the forum) advising about message board etiquette.

Perhaps there was an attempt to communicate via pm. Nonetheless, if the issue does not describe your behavior and is not directed to any particular person then why be bothered - - -

And when the thread on the open board is given a title like the title of this thread, and when the brother doing the calling out keeps putting brother in quotation marks, as though to suggest that the brother being addressed may not be a real brother, well . . .

Except it clearly was directed to a particular person.

The power to invoke "chickenhead" was inside you all along. Just believe in yourself.
