Programming Forum Warning

[Brandon Martus]

When creating a new thread in the Programming forum, you will be greeted with a friendly message (similar to the Sticky thread from Raven_Writer. You will only get this message if you have less than 10 posts.

The warning says something along the lines of ..

Despite having 'Delphi' in its name, ChiefDelphi.com is mainly geared for the FIRST Robotics Competition and its related competitions (VEX, FLL, etc.) and is not a resource for Delphi programming help. While some people here may know Delphi, C++, Visual Basic, Pascal, OOP, and other programming languages and techniques, you may find it more helpful to post your questions elsewhere.

I point them to a few Delphi sites and a Google search, and invite them to ask their question if they must, but follow the rules, etc., etc.

This doesn't apply to 99%+ of you, but I wanted to let you know that it does happen, and may cut down on the # of programming threads that aren't FIRST-related.

This is expandable to a custom message per forum, so if you can think of other areas to harness this feature, let me know.
