"An inactive chapter is not a chapter"? To me, that is like saying that a blue table is not a table.Naraht (talk) 15:00, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Because BYX does not grant charters to their "chapters" there is no actual evidence of one existing, therefore the only proof lies in membership, and if the membership does not exist, the "chapter" does not. Arl4545 (talk) 23:16, 19 March 2011 (UTC)


 * From the article:

"Chapters are authorized by a charter from the National Board of Directors and denominated by a letter of the Greek alphabet that corresponds with their order of admission into the fraternity (for example, the University of Texas is Alpha Chapter).[2]": Care to try again?Naraht (talk) 00:16, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

With several close friends who are members and former members, I can assure you there is no charter. The lack of organization in BYX "Nationals" trickles its way down to the organization of ever local affiliate. This is the reason cited by those leaving the organization in many different universities. The lack of a physical charter, being just one example.

Please understand that Wikipdia's guidelines and consensus on the article's talk page is that the greek letters remain in that article. You have removed the letter twice. Please stop.  Tide  rolls  00:45, 20 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Now you are edit warring on the article's talk page. Wikipedia has a policy found at WP:Three revert rule that establishes a bright line that must not be crossed.  You are jeopardizing your editing privileges if you continue.   Tide  rolls  00:58, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

"Edit warring", huh? I like the sound of that. Makes wikipedia sound a lot more bad ass.

Unblock
Please explain why you chose to harass others by insulting them here, and then you kept putting said insults back on that discussion page here and here. It also seems like you are not willing to acknowledge that we accept only material that is verifiable via your comment here; that is a huge problem in itself. –MuZemike 05:38, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

I posted that because it's funny, and I believe it. At the time I did not understand the purpose of the discussion page, or anything on wikipedia for that matter. Also, while I chose to respond to comments posted on my discussion page sarcastically, I understood what was being posted by other users. I will cite the same excerpt from the Wikipedia blocking policy: "even though it might have been justifiable to block someone a short time ago when they made inappropriate edits, it may no longer be justifiable to block them right now—particularly if the actions have not been repeated, or the conduct issues surrounding the actions have since been resolved."
