Seriously, moderators, are you afraid of serious and intense debate? Everytime I see some serious discussion go on, the moderators lock it almost immediately. Same thing happened with the collobration posts. Does every post have to revolve around seeing Dean Kamen on TV or about how many people met each other at nats (nothing wrong with these posts but that is all that Chief Delphi seems to be useful for these days).

There have been plenty of threads overflowing at the brim with healthy debate. They're all over the place.

Forgive me if I'm speaking for Jessica, but your thread was not closed because you had some amazing insight that the moderators are trying to squelch. From my perspective, it may be just the opposite -- you posted complaints that are nothing more than a retread of discussion we've had time and time again, offering very few contributions and adding, instead, to the vitriol that already surrounds many of those topics. I don't necessarily disagree with the things you have written about, really; I only disagree with the need to say them again without bringing anything more to the table.

But, beyond that, your post was closed because, not only did you complain about topics that are tired and old, but you did it "anonymously," something many people hold synonymous to "with cowardice."

Sorry, but your shocking revelations and incisive complaints are not quite that and it's a bit childish to hide behind some anonymous identity in any circumstance.

You know as well as I do who reads these boards (refs, judges, FIRST staff) and I do not want my team to feel any reprecussions as a result of what I say. I know that there are people on this board who will hold it against the team as a whole, so for that reason I will not list my name or team number.

You and your minions can call me a coward (and to all the people who PMed calling a coward, i don't care) all you want but I will not compromise the repuatation of my team because of my words.
