Pi Kappa Phi Encourages Members Not To Share TFM Content And We Are So Sorry

banned

Hey, Pi Kapp. It’s Dan. Yeah, Dan from TFM. How’s it going? It’s been a while. We’ve shot you a few texts recently, trying to get you into the mix, but all I’m seeing is green boxes. You cheeky bastards and your non-iPhones must be pretty busy lately, huh?

I see you’ve opened up our last few Snapchats, too, but never respond. What gives? Was it something we said? Do you feel ignored? I know we’ve been paying more attention to other fraternities with the “Why Your Fraternity Sucks” series, myself specifically, but they got nothing on you. Remember all the good times we used to have? We laughed, we cried (laughing), and we laughed again…mostly at your expense, but that’s beside the point. You’re one of a kind.

We’re sorry you feel that way, Pi Kapp. Pushing you away was never our intention. We like to have fun here in Austin, and sure, it may get a little out of hand from time to time, but not having you guys involved is heartbreaking. You’re the wind beneath our wings, allowing us to fly to such great heights. So we’re asking…no, we’re begging for you to come back, baby.

Life without you is like a broken pencil — pointless.

      You took a gamble using TNM, and it paid off. Go grab yourself a beer out of the fridge, you earned it.

    Something tells me this is going to be included in “Why Your Fraternity Sucks”

    Man, now I feel bad for laughing at them… Didn’t think they’d actually leave.

        Dramatic pause, sport. These are hard hittin’ social issues. What’s wrong? Did the content strike a chord?

      I went to supreme in Atlanta last year and it was literally the most absurd thing. All the “Nominees” ran unopposed and I was in the finance group, so I got a peek at some of the numbers… we have upwards of $200mil in real estate assets alone and they never showed us admin compensation, even when asked. Then again, pulling seven figures to yell at a bunch of college kids and take their money is kinda sick too.

        If you want a breakdown of all of the money and how it is collected and spent go read the Star & Lamp from this Spring. It’s not like they have $200 mil in cash. Like you said, it’s in assets.

        As for compensation, it looks like the whole staff splits $1.3 mil. You’re never going to get rich working for a fraternity’s nationals.

        Someone should just copy and paste the fail friday emails onto the IGBOTD comment section.

      They didn’t send it out via email either. I thought the intern’s dad was just joking when he said that he wished he would have just pulled out. Guess not.

    Part of me wants to say Pi Kapp is a bunch of pussies, but then again, based on some of TFM’s articles it makes sense. I mean you hire SteveHolt its only a matter of time until all of us leave. Fuckers.

    Dan I don’t get how a move like this would surprise you. When articles get posted on this site about chapters getting kicked off for various awful reasons isn’t it obvious that stuff like that presents Greek life in a negative way? Mainstream liberal media is going in on us and articles like that only confirm what they’re saying. Granted this website posts tons of articles about Greeks doing good stuff, because we do, that liberal media will never address, but there are quite a few articles on this site that are pretty damaging to Greek life.

      $100 says:
      1) He’s not surprised
      2) He doesn’t give a fuck
      3) The articles you’re referring to do way better traffic than the ones about Greeks doing good stuff.
