Now you have people posting on the internet as anonymously as possibly and yet crazies on GC will contact chapters at taht school when they figure out who is who or what school it is.
What ever happened to minding your own business?

Hey sis or should I say, HEY MRS.!! Glad to see you back here!
Tame? GC is the least bit tame these days!
I know back in the day, PNMs were pretty cool about posting their school and their opinions because they didn't act the fool like some of these new kids do. I think that's why GCers are so quick to want to find out their info -- they don't want them in their organizations.
In a perfect GC world, we'd get recruitment stories like curlygirly's. If only...

I don't think it's that. I post on three other message boards, where the age range is the same as GC, and there's all kinds of off the wall topics.

i agree with you to a point. i have been on boards that make this one today look wild, crazy and way out of control. the reason is in part due to very strong moderation and control. while topics can and do wind, bend and vier around, posters are not allowed to derail or take them over. you get a personal warning, a suspension and then an expulsion. very tough love on terms of service. not saying either way which is right or wrong. different boards.

I don't think the site has changed much, although we are in a phase where there are quite a few self appointed GC police types about. That's both good and bad. Bad because it's not so much fun, and hard on the newbies. Good because it helps keep people who don't know any better from posting things they ought not post and then falling victim to some of the people who take the site way too seriously.
But, overall, it's still very similar to what it's always been, in my long-time observer opinion.

By the same token, people can keep their business to themselves.

Hmh. You seem to know a lot and have a pretty strong opinion about the BS level on this site for a newbie with 7 posts who said this in another thread:

The reason you don't get on here much is because you've been banned. Repeatedly.
Take the hint.
