Go to Post I love the smell of a upcoming FRC build season in the morning. The sleepless night; the drills; welding; cutting of metal. I wait all yr. for this. - midway78224 [more]

the last word

Brandon,
There will always be the person that must get the "last word in" - a time limit is appropriate in all cases. I'm not sure that it will actually stop some of the stuff going on, but it may slow it down - how difficult would it be to limit the number of responses any one person could make? Say, 1 original post and 2 follow ups. Time limits and number of responses are how most debates are managed. It's too bad we have to correlate a Chit Chat string of postings to a debate. As your Dad and I have talked about many times, our CD website really wants to encourage positive interaction between and amongst FIRST teams and have in the past requested everyone that posts to use restraint in posting. If the problem is focused more on the Chit Chat forum than any of the others, we may want to do something just on that board - until we develop a longer term solution.
Mike Aubry
