Just stop and think for one second. You know there's an issue, and you know the people who can fix it. But, instead of acknowledging the issue, they tell you to go away? Then, you're determined to show them that this issue is real, and that it matters. All you can think of is proving them wrong and proving yourself right. So then you take actions that aren't good, but in your mind, they will serve a greater good.

In my short few years being around people, I've met a handful of people who are utterly brilliant but they have no social awareness and a lack of ability to see consequences. These people are nailed as socially awkward, but in their mind whatever they are doing, however they are doing it, is perfectly right.

Did this person interfere intentionally? Yes.
Do I believe that this person had malicious intent at heart? No.
Do I believe that the person has been adequately punished? Yes.

Additionally, I cannot even begin to imagine how team 1114 and their alliance partners currently feel, however, I believe that making a public apology is not the right path. The internet is the internet, and FIRST is FIRST. By publicly revealing himself/herself and the team, they leave themselves open to emotional, and possibly physical, harassment.

I am not condoning these actions, I am not condoning this person. However, without knowing all of the facts, I cannot support any action that would possibly bring this person any more harm.

I agree with you, but then also having these findings say that some of these teams lost connection because they were DDOS'ed and thats why they couldnt participate in matches, makes me say that the students, mentors, and parents of those teams deserve more than what this student has supposedly gone through. 1114 and 2056 specifically, because they were the 2 I know that said they were DDOS'ed, should feel the worst because their teams worked hard all season to accomplish what they did and got to the level they did this season and then had it swiped away by someone that had nothing to do with the match.
