Q&A Discuss: parts as dead weight?

[Ken Leung]

I think as time goes on, more and more of us will get practice in providing solid answers in the question forum. It wasn't easy when I first joined part of the FRC engineers as a volunteer helping with answering some of the questions on the Yahoo board. It took a lot of reading other people's answers, and looking through the rule book.

But in the end, I got enough practice, and was really glad I went through all that to be better at it. It was a very valuable experience, and I learned a lot more about how the rules and what FIRST thinks behind the big thick manuel. That's one of the reasons why I suggested starting a question forum... So more people can experience the same thing, and at the same time be more helpful to other FIRSTers.
