Re: What happened to the FIRST community I call my family?
I would just like to add a thought here...
CD has traditionally welcomed new members. Oftentimes, the new members join up during the time around Kick Off and the beginning of build. It is ok for new people to be a part of this community and learn how to contribute in a positive manner. I would hope that they would be encouraged and helped in learning how to do this and I think the process, overall, works pretty well. We just have to remind ourselves to be nice and to be patient sometimes, as well.

I think there are several teams who have developed a 'how-to-post in CD' training session for the new members and I think that's a great idea.
