Raining on someone's recruitment parade
I'm as guilty of highjacks as anyone and I know that I've done exactly what I'm about to ask about, but the Auburn thread really drove home for me how unfortunate it is when we let negativity overtake a thread that was originally and essentially about a young women having a fabulous recruitment.
Maybe when we want to jump into a thread with a story that contradicts the tone of the main teller, we should start a new thread, like "a different Auburn experience" or something?
(I'm not talking about the times we give release figure tutorials while we're waiting to hear a particular PNMs results, but busting up a positive story to interject a lot of negative results seemed a little lame. The concerns should be aired and discussed; just not in the 1st girl's thread, or so it seems to me now. )
