I read this thread and your letter. I think all of us can agree that FIRST is not perfect and from what it seems like, you have been treated quite unfairly. It happens to the bulk of us and what you posted is still personal. At least, you put in some effort to help make the volunteering process better in your opinion.
That's about the best you can do.
After giving FIRST HQ and Michigan FIRST your two cents, there is not a lot you can do to control their actions.
You can't force them into giving you a position you want if they refuse to give it to you. If you are confident in your skill set, then maybe you should move on to another regional district or any other activities (maybe beyodn FIRST). I'd rather go where I am welcome.
In my dealings, I always remember this one phrase - "The value of a bar of gold is always going to remain the same".
Good luck.
