Which NEW member are you?

The games have begun.......time for you to see what the Bond REALLY is.

As for your commentary sissy. trust me, I can smell the Kool aid you are pumping.

Trust me you will see me sooner than you think. the due diligence is already being done on you. and the florida Nupes Im talking to right now, Zeta Phi and the true Old Skool Nupes from FAMU are just in amazement. Youre already on that list of "Kappas we need to meet soon"

the Bond is fierce sissy....youve exposed yourself for who you are. i see that undergrad reference wasnt given. Didnt want me to ask the Nupes about who you really were and why you werent given the opportunity. you must have dropped. You sound like it.

and a Fall 2008 grad nigga too. Too dumb to even look at all your violations on here thus far. Trust me, you wont have to worry about meeting me. youll know soon the distances the Bond covers.....pay your dues, stay in your lane...better yet dont. We need stories like yours that are about to be written. It adds to the glory and nystique of the Bond.

now run off and continue to be gay. Like I said. the offer to address me individually has been there. you havent taken it. but what else should I expect. the real nupes will be contacting you soon to address why you referred to any aspect of the Bond as "shit". you need ot explain to them your Black 'nalia Philospohy seeing as how you at most could only be 8 months in the Bond. and the Nupes I know in your area that are in grad chapters dont know you so its evident that even if you tried to do something you were hid.

come find me. Because Im about to find you.

It's cool. Yeah, Base (Rob) is my adp, Winter 90' and my line made G's line. We always called him Rob Base and the name stuck. I'm not sure if you know him by that nickname. Yup, Rob is G's dean, and my dean is Rob's sand's. G said he hadn't talked to you in a couple of years, so I gave him your number. He shared some things with me about you, deep stuff that I thought was cool. So, he has your number, and you have mine. Call me anytime. I don't know if you know any DZ Nupes from Winter 87 line. I know Ellis would have still been in school when G's brother came down to make him. Base did have a black jacket when we were in school and he's from Chicago, I'll tell you what happened with that though. I'll e-mail you Girard's number. He'll be glad to hear from you.

Small world it is.

Thank you good Nupe. you said Delta Zeta so i had to test the waters. rich tradition there and we dont just give it away. I got girard number already and make sure you email me so we can talk. Kold Nupes stay thorough and be sure to watch the company you keep especially on message boards because everybody aint you...or me...or Rob Base...et, al.

Like I said, REAL Nupes do due diligence....and like someone here said, this is a small world.....some will see how small soon.

Hit me up Nupe

^^^Hey Phi, I tried e-mailing you, but something is up with it. I keep getting this message: The 1st one went through fine.

MAILER-DAEMON@n56.bullet.mail.sp1.yahoo.com"

I wanted to ask you if you know E High. He's a physician in your area, and Base' sands kl9ub. It doesn't matter though, I still have your number. I'll just call you tonight so we can talk.

Hey, when you get a chance, ask Girard this question, very important: Ask him what does "that shit is gonna hurt like a mf in the mornin'" And then tell me what he said and who made it up. LMAO!! I was one silly Nupe when he was on line.

[Tyrone Connaway]

lol.

Havent met E-High but Im glad to know there is a Nupe down here who is a physician. the Nupes need to know that and Ill definitely get with him to fellowship with him. Instead of hitting "Reply" re-enter my email address then send it. Also text me your infromation since you have my number.

Girard so damned silly. I had my own spot on the West Side of Chi and when he was still dealing with the Zeta who he was with, he used to come to my crib for peace and sanctuary. As you can see Nupe, we jone ALL the time and Girard was a constant competitor. Ive also been contacted by a good Nupe on this thread from Florida from Zeta Phi at University of Florida. If you ever get down there to Gainesville you GOTTA check them Nupes out. Spring 1992 Zeta Phi was one of the koldest lines to ever join the Bond. Ill begin the network of REAL Nupes and then we can get our own groups and chat rolling.

Its time totake the Bond back and support these undergrads the way they deserve to be supported. The Founders would want it like that. Plus I got some great photos of Irvin Armstrong and me plus other North Central Nupes that need to be in chapters archives.

Dont forget to text me Nupe.

[PrettyBoy]

Jonin?' LOL. Nupe, you're taking me back to DZ. I'm the biggest instigator to ever come through DZ. Oh yeah, and Girard was jonin' on you a couple of days ago. Just so you know. LOL. I told him I called you and got your v-mail. He said "When you called, did his voice mail sound like this?" Then he did an imitation of you. I.. You've got to meet my Sand's Al (tail). He can jone and I usually will instigate to get something started so I can.. after all these years of knowing I like to instigate a good jone session, they still fall for it everytime.

I've never been to that part of Florida before. Sounds like a nice chapter to visit. Girard told me something your chapter did for him that blew me away. I won't post it because you probably already know. When I talk to you I'll tell you about it. Now, those are great brothers. Any chapter that takes care of a Nupe from my chapter like that gets much respect from me. Period.

Nupe, I respect your opinion, but a REAL Nupe to me is a Nupe with good character, and a brother who will go the extra mile for another Nupe. There are good brothers and bad brothers. That's in every glo. Phi, I understand where you're coming from in respect to the undergrad experience. I wouldn't have wanted to come into the Bond any other way. Would I do it all over again? Hell no. Any brother that tells you he would pledge all over again, didn't pledge. When I was in undergrad and years after I didn't like the whole graduate chapter way of coming into the Bond either. I've learned since then, that it's not how a brother comes into the Bond, it's about what he's doing for the Bond or what he would do for another brother in need. Can a grad chapter Nupe relate to an undergrad Nupe? No, I don't think so. But I wouldn't let that determine what kind of relationship or Bond I'll share with that brother. I look at his character. There are dick down brothers who went grad and there are some dick down brothers who were made too. Nupe, I understand how you feel, but I honestly think what our Founding Fathers want is one Fraternity, and one Bond. Separating undergrad Nupes from grad Nupes is the opposite of what a brotherhood should be. I agee with you 110% about checking a brother out. You're right, you have to be careful especially on message boards. But just keep in mind my brother, we're one Fraternity with the same goal that our Founders set in stone. I believe in REAL Nupes both undergraduate and graduate. And yeah, I agree, I am for supporting undergrad chapters. We need to get back to that.

I'm about to text you. Let me know if you got it. I tried calling, I know your busy, but let me know if you got the text. Also Girard said you two hang out whenever you come home to visit. I'll tell Girard to tell me when you swing through, so we can all hang out.

Girard so damned silly, I can only imagine the impression. lol. Them cats had me sounding like Darth Vader "Luuuuuuu-ke" lol. And anything done for girard by my chapter wasnt a favor. It was his right as it is yours. You need to make sure tha you make time to come to Kappa Karnival next year PHi. Its not only for the younins. Im so proud of my young Nupes down there. Six figure exchequer, true brotherhood, and a respect for deference that is on the level of the mafia. They set it out for old scvhool so tough that they had different off site locations for alumni of the chapter and friends to kick it while the undergrads did their mega events. Ill email you some photos Nupe.

I dont want it to be misconstrued that I am just KOMPLETELY anit grad. Im actually not. but in all honesty the fuckery that has been pulled by them and Grand Chapter as whole is ridiculous. the example of what I am speaking is right on this message board. Theundergrad younger Npe on the board , not only emailed me directly, but called me Nupe just to find out that I made and kicked it with the Spring 92 line from his own chapter. Even got the way to forward information to him about hi old school that he didnt have including phone numbers. then look at us now Phi, I feel like Ive known you forever and its based on silly ass Girard and Boss Klean himself, Rob Base (that was a smooth ass Nupe right ther Phi, worked MAGIC with them clippers! Iremeber he was the first person to rock the afro in the 1990's before anyone else even THOUGHT about doing it!). But then I got a St. Pete Alumni cat on here that had access to the same information that you and the younger Nupe that emailed me, and I heard nothing. At least love the Bond enough to investigate. Now i dont need to go to the term "spoiled brat" but wever hear that in a little something we learned from. But I get ?And I dont like you....so YITB is out the window." there is a prime example of why we need the grad moratorium. Undergrads are the true lifeline of the Bond because their minds can be shaped in Kappa and also in regardss to how to be MEN. whereas grad niggas truly believe that chronological age takes precedence before years in the Bond. They aint never changing that so its no need for me to accept them in actuality. I merely tolerate. So since I STILL hadnt heard from this dude and I just about got al his information anyway, his bed is made and you know the rest of the story from there.

Now I also have to admit this, with respect to regions of the country, you know the Bond is different up North and in the Midwest, so the mentality of the Grad member there is more easily shaped because they SAW what it was as undergrads so they know the business once they are done. Between wack ass HBCU's taing over a trillion dudes to the preaching of sussness (i.e. Dudes wearing T- Shirts with ritual information on it), it is disgusting. By Gods grace, I helped change the game here in Atlanta as far as the Nupey is concerned. It wasnt easy but the main obstacles i faced came from Alumni. but I waslucky because what they didnt realize is that the young men WANT to get made. they WANT to have the same experience their fathers and uncles and grandfathers had. So here is my response. when Grand chapter remebers that we are brothers, when Alumni remebers we are brothers..and i mean BROTHERS things will change. The FAMU situation was ridiculous and their biggest enemies came fro within the Bond not outside of it. It took a white jdge to review all of it and realize that the decision rendeered was asinine, but it was Grand chapter that didnt attempt toprotect their brother but set their brother out.

I wil never forgive them for that and my mission in life is to continue to be a good Nupe and brother, the way the founders intended. Be honest Nupe, do your REALLY think someone who would bring nonsense to DZ wouldnt get dealt with? The way you Nupes set it out for the brothers? And all you all do is just be the Nupes, So anyone who would bring trouble to your doorstep better know for a fact that if nothing else Gamma Upsilon is going to deal with them for what they tried to do to our brother. You KNOW how people like that get done.

but Im getting a little too deep Phi. bottom line is this. The proof is in the pudding. We went from adversaries to allies in less than two pages of typing? why is that? Because we were made. Because we were made undergrad. Because REAL Nupes walk in the same circles. Kapp aaint hard. suss niggas just make it that way. I call it the Bitching Down of the Black Man. and it is rolling over into our Bond. I just got told by a Fall 2008 Alumni nigga to be prepared to "back the shit up Im talking" My 19 years in the Bond mean nothing. so is he my brother? Or is he just some nigga who bought the letters that I have too.

The writing is on the wall Nupe. But Ihit you earlier and we will stop playing phone tag soon!

P.S. Tell Girard big ass that if he going to talk shit the LEAST he could do is come to Atlanta and talk it!

[PrettyBoy]

Nupe, I just called you. I got your text too. I'm about to go to the show so as soon as I get out, I'm calling. KEEP YOUR PHONE ON. DAMN!!!! LOL You're a trip, and you know why. LOL

Phi V

[Tyrone Connaway]

Nupe,

I just keep that shit real. We been letting to much shit slide by trying to be politcally correct. So here is my list of shit i believe in.

1. slapping the shit out of suss people.
2. Laughing about it.
3. Making sure people get MADE RIGHT. And no this doesnt mean just a physical aspect. If i meet one more cat that clams he was made but doesnt know how to properly second a motion or table a discussion according to Roberts Rules of Order and Parliamentary Procedure, I am going to lose it. The Founders had order, when did we stop? thats why we are in the position ow of losing the Scrollers club and the fuckery is tasking place. Its good and great to go thru something to get it, but if you dont get ALL of it, are you realle MADE? Last I checked, made meant komplete.

4. I believe grad chapters that dont do TRUE due dilligence on the new members to be by contacting their undergrad chapters to find the truth out about why someone didnt go undergrad need they asses whipped.

5. I believe that only a fool would give money to Kappa when it has been made clear that on a grand level their vote doesnt count.

6. I believe we should disband the NPHC because the shit is a joke anyway. sink or swim., Your organization should be able to stand on its own. and it wasnt like the NPHC was sending money to my FAMU Nupes when they were on trial to their legal defense fund. so fuck everybody else. You werent there when my Founders created the Bond. you werent their when we changed the name for "certain" reasons. And the nxt person that says that everyone is affected by the actions of one org, well you can eat s syphillis infested dick. Because that makes you a liar. no one wrote the Zeta a check when their incident happened. no one wrote the AKA's a check after the California incident, no one wrote a check for Mu Zeta Nupes back in 1991, and again no one wrote a check for my good FAMU Nupes when the latest fuckery happened. So lets top lying. Fend for yourselves. The Nupes dont need the NPHC and its evident they feel the same way.

7. those who DID pledge above ground should be held accountable for forums like this getting started. Because i find it hard to believe that someone would need to go to a message board to find things out about the bond. what about the people that brought you in? They arent a good enough reference? And if not nobody in your state, province, or affiliates couldnt answer it for you? Not to mention the answers are right there if you came through right and under the ORIGINAL ritual. that new fangled shit you can keep. (Im sorry diggs but damn, did you see this bullshit they created?)

9. Advisors need to be reminded that their only role is to advise, not to dictate. good shit sells itself. I had the greatest advisors and Alumni chapter ever in the history of Kappa. Carbondale Alumni. What made them great is that they remebered we were BROTHERS first. Never out to get us. Only there to support us. they gave good old skool Kappa advice and we could count on them to show up to the frat house with a drink before they would an allegation. God Bless those good Nupes. they were the TRUEST essence of the Bond in my eyes.

10. Please see #1

[PrettyBoy]

Man, I just spent about 30 minutes responding to this, and it wouldn't let me post for some odd reason. WTF? Starting over. I laughed at your 1st two comments, because my dean was in the same situation. There was a brother who transferred from another chapter to our school, and you know how we roll at DZ, we had to check him out. To make a long story short, this brother couldn't even say the Founders. He started with EWD, and didn't know the rest. NO LIE!!!! What my dean did next is a phone call. LOL. I agree with #3 110%, but sometimes meetings still get out of order. What kills me are glos who have lines 150 deep and don't even know each others last names.

Getting rid of the NPHC, I don't think we should, Nupe. I know an Iota who would agree with you, because he was mad when his organization joined the NPHC. I couldn't figure out why though. You two probably know more about it then I do. I think we as black men and women are divided already on so many levels, that I don't see the point of dividing our glos.

You asked why some things have gotten the way they are based on the way the Founders created it to be? Good question. You're right, the Founders were men of order, but at the same time our Founders didn't refer to themselves as "Lady mind blowers or damn near flawless, making women go drawless" either. Where did this shit come from? That's my question. It's one thing to joke about it, because that's what that mess is to me, a joke. It's when brothers act on it is what gets me ticked off. I see your point, Phi, but in my mind the "bitching down of the black man" is when he can't keep his dick in his pants and won't commit to one woman, the same woman. I'm not just speaking of Kappa Alpha Psi, and the lame sterotype that's been given to us. I'm speaking of black men in general. Basically, the black man has failed his family. Why? because there are too many black homes without a father figure. There's a mother, and the kids, but where is that dude? He got the draws, but bounced when the kids came and the going got tough. That to me is a weak azz man. I'm not saying that a single mom can't raise her children, because she can and not only that, raise them to be leaders with good character. But a lot of times when there isn't a dedicated committed hard working man leading his family, then his son(s) will grow up to be just like him, and if he's a trifling father their mother will say negative things about him around her daughter, and then she may grow up and think all black men are that way. What's even more sad is there are more black men in prison than there are in college. As far a Kappa is concerned, I love being apart of a Fraternity that's known as being well educated, articulate, handsome, Achieving men. Who wouldn't want to be apart of an organization like that? It's the "player" "mack daddy" "I wear shades at night" image that we've been plagued with that bothers me. Were our Founding Fathers walking around outside at night with shades on, being "macks" and "players?" So my question is where did this garbage that we've been plagued with come from? And on top of that to act on "Nupes are entitled to your girl". And then to wear a KAY t-shirt with that mess printed on it confirming it. A man isn't entitled to any man's girl. Infact, he isn't entitled to his own girl unless he's put a ring on her finger. As a matter of fact, there was a brother on here (who doesn't post as much anymore), who started a thread called "The Art of Mackin'". On top of that, it was started on our forum. I clowned (as in I was pissed) so bad in that thread, that it got closed. Like I said, it's one thing to talk about it, joke about it and keep it as the stereotype that it is, because talk is cheap, but he believes this like many brothers do, especially the young brothers.

When I was on line I would always tell myself that if I was fortunate to make it into the Bond, I was going to get rid of our sweetheart program. Why? because most of them were groupies sleeping with the brothers. I succeeded. They had to go. The last time I came back to my chapter, they were still gone, and if I ever find out that they've come back, I'll be making a road trip. Another thing that would kill me is hearing Nupes at many chapters calling these girls hoes. I would ask those same brothers, if she's a hoe, and you're sleeping with her, then what does that make you? See, folks get quiet when I get on this topic. Nupes can get mad at me, call me a back, put me in the kut or do whatever, I don't care, because I'm tired of this shit, and it should have never been adopted. What's a mack? A mack is a hoe. What's a player? A hoe, and a pimp is a skank hoe. Period. I don't care who it is. This is what I call the "bitching down of the black man". It's a man who won't commit to one woman, the same woman. He's a man who talks a lot of game like he's committed to one woman, and "claims" he is committed because he calls his "main" squeeze his girl, but yet his punk azz has other women on the side he's messing with. The "bitching down of a black man" in my mind is a man who claims he's a hardcore player but in reality is as soft as "Rite Aid" drug store cotton. The good kind. Sorry azz men like this are emotionally impotent and need viagra for the heart. Basically he simply 1.) won't keep his dick in his pants, and 2.) finds it too difficult to remain connected as his sorry azz starts to wilt under the pressure of a normal love life. And then for these dumb azz jokers who try to get themselves out of trouble after they get caught cheating on their girls, then they buy her gifts to ease the guilt. Some women fall for this garbage time and time again. "Read my siggy". Men like this are just a dumb azz cash register full of one hundred dollar excuses. Like you said Nupe, it isn't hard, but not acting on the player stereotype isn't hard either.

I'm not going to comment on the FAMU part. Someone started a thread on here about that with a link attached, but I didn't respond to it. Infact, none of the Nupes did. The only thing I'll say about that is, I thought it was unfair and pretty much based on race. But the rest of my thoughts on that are a phone call, Nupe.

btw: when you get a chance, Phi, I need you to call me, PM me, or e-mail me with your mailing address. I have something I want to send you. Part of it is a DZ tradition. It's important I get this info from you Nupe. Hit me up.

Phi V

Also Nupe, I enjoyed talking to you. You are one funny Nupe. Hopefully we can talk longer the next time, Phi.

Check out this DZ "probate" show. Up the hill, down the hill, there is no hill, Kappa, Kappa....LOL, this brings back memories all over again. I haven't forgotten none of this. It takes a minute to load up.

I was mad, so I guess I got carried away too, but you're absolutely right, Phi.

On another note, and Nupes, you know how silly I am, so before I make a request to close this thread, I'll just say this. I just had this mental image of KAPPAtivating and justagent2011 coming into to this thread to post like normal and saying "WTF???" when they saw this: Dead!!!

[PrettyBoy]

Alright that's it, close it up.
