Re: Nearly Officially Official: cRIO Control System To Be Reused

I'm choosing not to state any opinion on this.
Why? Because I refuse to form an opinion before I know all the facts and I've heard them from FIRST.

Seriously, y'all. I loved IFI too, and I'm going to miss the system- it was truly fantastic. But this doesn't mean everything FIRST does from here on out is wrong, "BS", or that FIRST doesn't listen to teams. Yes, they have their faults; there are a lot of changes going on, and I'm sure they're hard to deal with from an HQ level just like they are for us here on teams and in the community.

What's with all the negativity? I'm becoming really disappointed in the ChiefDelphi community. Why is it impossible for us to see what happens and try to enjoy the season ahead without freaking out about the price for registration in 2010?

I, for one, am fully committed to not judge ANYTHING about the upcoming season until I've experienced it firsthand. I want to have fun my senior year, and that's what's going to matter to me. If I work with the new system, and I don't like it, O.K. So I don't like it, but that's what we have to work with. If I work with it and I end up liking it, that's great too. I want to go to a Michigan event to see the competition for myself- then I'll form my opinion. I'm not going to figure it out now. I hope more people have this attitude, but I'm certainly not seeing it in any of the discussions I've read so far.

It's life. Get over it, and stop whining until you actually know there's something to whine about.

That's my two cents, my opinion, take it as you wish. It's not meant to offend anyone, and if it does I'm truly sorry.
I wish I didn't have to apologize for stating my opinion on CD, but that's unfortunately what this forum is turning into.
