Yeah, I understand what you are saying about how if you break a rule, you shouldn't be announcing it on Chief Delphi, where authorities around where you live can check to see if you have done anything wrong.

I think there is a bit of biased judgement here. Not too long ago this thread was up and everyone could see it. Tytus is clearly breaking a rule that's far more dangerous than kids smuggling Mt. Dew into a convention center, and then posting it on Chief Delphi. Sure, he wasn't intending to post a picture of him doing 85 MPH, but it's still there.

Tytus is a mentor
roboticsguy1988 is, or recently was, a student. (If I am not mistaken. I'm judging his age based on the "1988" on the end of his username)

Tytus was a student when he posted it.
It's no excuse and Tytus has even apologized for careless mistakes he has made that had caused him grievous injury (the awful potato gun incident).
I have learned with kids is that they are prone to bad decisions (thus the need for rules) and as mentors we have to steer them in the right direction so they don't have disaster befall upon them or post their mistakes on CD.
