So when no one pays attention to it and has nothing to say about it then what was the point of putting it up?

Like I said before, if you don't have anything positive to say or a question to ask then (in my not so humble opinion) you shouldn't go out of your way to start a thread about the picture just to berate the original poster for their lack of "etiquette." PMs worded in a very respectful manner, or asking for more hints would be much more professional. Isn't that what we're supposed to try to promote? This isn't World of Warcraft where it's a relatively generally accepted practice to flame people from anonymous characters; this is FIRST and the real world here and we should be more courteous and respectful of others.

I don't know. Maybe it's easier to be on this high horse when I don't have a robot to build, but you should see this view!
