This wording is VERY tiny:
This is a place for the FRC community to informally discuss topics/concepts among themselves.
And my guess is people are missing that...

It might be useful if they sent out an email that says:
Submit your official questions here: http://forums.usfirst.org/forumdisplay.php?f=1408
And
Read official responses here: http://forums.usfirst.org/forumdisplay.php?f=1353

(or just move the "discussion" board off of that page entirely...)
