I think this thread is warranted. FIRST has been REALLY good about telling us when things are changing. The fact that they haven't told us this process has changed concerns me because it is an injury waiting to happen.

Cory, I really hope FIRST replies to your concerns soon.

Well, I guess I'll stop trying to change the general tone of negativity we've seen all season then. If you'll read my posts, you'll see that I have no issue with discussing the problem, posing solutions, or contacting first. Maybe i've become a little over-sensitized at this point, but for the past 3 months it seems like every time I come on CD there's another thread about how FIRST really screwed up, or how a Q&A is horrible, or how a team update screws up the game. It's been an overwhelming negative atmosphere all season, and not at all productive.
