Chief Delphi Moderators Censoring Posts

[Ginger Power]

Tungrus has been an active, and helpful contributor to Chief Delphi from what I have seen. I don't think attacking his/her anonymity is the right thing to do. There are plenty of anonymous accounts who contribute to the site in a positive way. Granted there are more that detract from it. However, this isn't the case here.

Just because some anonymous posters don't live up to standards doesn't mean all don't. Some teams might ask their students not to post on chief delphi or to post anonymously because they think the potential headaches it can cause vastly outweigh the benefits of it, or it could be a personal choice to be anonymous for a number of reasons.

This isn't a comment on the quality of Tungrus' post, just a comment on anonymous users in general.

Ok, after rereading it, I see what you mean. I apologize.

You don't have to dislike CD to know it isn't perfect. The moderators should welcome feedback so that they can improve user experience.

I'm mildly amused that it claims to be both a 2014 and 2015 game piece. Well, that sates the curiosity.

On the other hand had it been the 5 gallon water bottles I'd been all over posting the "water game is on!!!"

Thats what I thought!
I assumed that they were used to hold game pieces or something like that.

From my experience the moderators do respond very promptly to questions just don't over do it. There is also a Forum Support section you could in theory post feedback to.

If moderating posts for content is seen as horribly unjust and wrong, what exactly are moderators for?

The entire premise of FRC relies on the game being a secret. Is it too much to ask that if something leaks, you discuss it somewhere else if you absolutely have to do so?

I guess I just don't see how some people can feel so entitled to talk about whatever they want in spaces that aren't their own. Especially information that's supposed to be secret / confidential, on a forum that is all but the "official" place to talk about FRC on the internet.

Go be mad about something else actually worth your time, seriously.

And for those of you who both saw the leaked information and also began acting on it (working on prototype design, etc...). You cheated. You should be ashamed of yourselves. That's not Gracious Professionalism and that's not what fair competitors with integrity would do.

That's like a pretty huge hint actually. It would be a small step from there to assume that we're stacking them.
Acting on that would be pretty unfair IMO.

How do you know that is not someone's real account? I'm just saying (not trying to pick a fight). For all we know, it could be you or me!
