I think the idea has a lot of potential. If it is executed well, it could turn into something positive. Or.... it could turn into a whine-fest.

Heh, sorry, my bad.

Well, I have considered that turning into a whine-fest. But, is that necessary a bad idea? Having a place for people to vent isn't necessary a bad thing, especially when it is not intented for finger pointing or yelling. God knows even I need to vent sometime.

Maybe, by keeping these messages in their own corner, and respond to them in a constructive way, it might be helpful to the message sender as well as the rest of the forum. It might be especially helpful for FIRST-a-holics who are reaching out to the community for the first time when their team don't approve of such thing, or college students who are stressed out by their new team AND their new school.

I am only throwing this idea out to see if there is a need for it. It would only happen if it is useful for the FIRST community.
