I, like Karthik, am incredibly surprised it took this long for a comment like this. But that's just a reflection of how disappointed I am in how ChiefDelphi has turned lately. All I hear is negativity.
Rather than try to tear them down, why don't you talk to the team and see what YOU can do to try to bring yourselves up to their level?!
Every time I hear 'FIRST should level the playing field', what people are usually saying is 'FIRST should bring the playing field down to me, so I don't have to work harder to achieve the level of success someone else has.' Pull yourselves up, don't tear others down. It's much better for everyone that way.
What's truly sad is that people on your team who don't feel this way are probably going to get negative messages just for having the same number on their profile. Because that's the way the world works.
General Disclaimer to CD: Your comments are going to reflect on other people, and that's unfair to your teammates. I hope the backlash from this makes people think about what they say & how it comes across.
They say you should never go to bed angry... too bad I logged onto Chief when I did. I'm honestly pretty disappointed in this forum lately. There are gems, but then there are things like this.
118, you have a beautiful robot and I can't wait to see it in action. Don't let the haters drag you down.
