Re: Possible FLR Hacking?

Sorry if I started any controversy, and I certainly hope I haven't begun a whole new rumor about what could happen at future events. Hopefully I've learned my lesson about posting anything controversial on a high-traffic site.
You have nothing to be ashamed of. There's no reason to be afraid of controversial topics, and you should never be afraid to question the system. Maybe your initial post could have been written better, and that is the lesson you should take from this, but don't think you did anything wrong by discussing this topic.

It's better to be a little disgruntled and aware of a potential problem then blissfully ignorant until the bus hits you. While FIRST has a pretty decent system in place, the only reason is because people looked at it and said "How can I break this system?". And honestly, it still has a lot to be desired in my opinion, but it's getting there.

I reiterate my point, you did nothing wrong, and there is no reason such topics should be so problematic. If anyone disagrees with, bring it on

I'm a FIRST relic of sorts, I remember when we used PBASIC and we got CH Flightsticks in the KoP. In my day we didn't have motorized carts, we pushed our robots uphill, both ways! (Houston 2003!)
