Maybe there are a few posts on here that are non-GP, but instead of being gloomy and doomy I'd like to compliment the vast base of contributors to CD on how much Gracious Proffessionalism is shown in these forums. As I'm sure many of you know, there are discussion forums about other sports (yes, I think FIRST is a sport
) and I doubt that they have anything close to the level of profesionalism that is seen here... take a google around if you want.
Also, remember that the people on this forum are not just words on a screen, but many of them attend various FIRST events as well.
Just as an example... at the Boilermaker regional our previously smoked 5 volt regulator finally decided to quit... right before our semifinal match. Team 1018 , the RoboDevils, very graciously loaned us their robot controller. Without their gracious professionalism, we wouldn't have gone on to win the regional.
I'm not saying you aren't bringing up a valid point that there are a few non-GP posts and threads around CD, but, remember to look on the bright side too... all in all I'm impressed with the CD discussion board community and the FIRST community.
