Zackcool123. This is the second time we've gone through this. The first time the post was deleted.

First of all, do you think that perhaps taking polls with langauge stating that people "HATE" one of the main sponsors of FIRST, on a forum they frequent, where they spend company money to support and teach us, is the best idea?

Perhaps you could have stated the poll in such a way as to ask a positive question. Such as "Who prefers labview, and who prefers C++, and why?"

I would suggest that using that type of question would serve several purposes:
1. It would not make it appear that a portion of the FIRST community are ungrateful ingrates who will complain about being allowed to use a professional grade development system that is used around the world.
2. It would point out areas that C++ is preferred, and the people who develop labview might take those points to heart and modify their environment.

There is a large difference between constructive criticism wherein something can be learned, and damaging criticism where the only point is to degrade. Would you perhaps elaborate on why your prefer C or C++ and what could be improved in Labview?
