Your wording ("tragic occurrence") is over the top, and seems chosen to draw criticism. It did exactly that. Your joke about Patrick's situation was completely uncalled for. Hopefully you'll learn more appropriate ways to express yourself in public as you grow.

Please take this as not as an attack, but as an attempt to help you more suitably project an attitude of professionalism. If everyone merely moved on when they had a chance to offer guidance, the mission of FIRST would not be furthered.
The mission of FIRST is to inspire young people to be science and technology leaders, by engaging them in exciting Mentor-based programs that build science, engineering, and technology skills, that inspire innovation, and that foster well-rounded life capabilities including self-confidence, communication, and leadership.
I fail to see how Patrick's first post is even relevant or appropriate here. The argument of "you shouldn't be sad because someone else is sadder" is as illogical as the equivalent "you shouldn't be happy because someone else is happier".

While I am very sorry for Patrick's loss, I am quite interested in seeing the justification for going off-topic and nitpicking the word choice of someone who just wants some input.
