ditto, i've never seen that anywhere outside of GC

No, it doesn't.

If NPC's were white, you might have a point, but my NPC GLO is NOT white and neither is AlphaFrog's.
You may not have noticed that other people outside of GC have a problem with this due to a lack of exposure to NPC members, but that doesn't make us overreacting or what we're saying less true.

Name me one university that doesn't try to pimp it's diversity. The cover of all promotional materials is sure to show at least 3 different races, boys and girls. It doesn't matter what the racial makeup of the school is, but you know as well as I that they cherrypick students for brochures and such.

Then HWGLO would not refer to your organization or AlphaFrog's. Pip pip.

WGLO wouldn't refer to any NPC sorority. (which is the term we were discussing instead of HWGLO btw)
Cite please?

Diversity does not always refer to race.
So, anyway, PWIs and HWGLOs. Both are accurate and neither is offensive to everyone. To those of you who are offended, this is duly noted.

Sure it would.
I'm not going to recreate the wheel with you. So, be content with the fact that we will differ in opinions.
