Re: Chief Delphi? Addicting?

Chief Delphi is super addicting...there is no question about it. robotics can become an obsession and for some(like myself) addiction. Chief Delphi and The Blue Alliance are just components of the obsession we all seem to share on this awesome thing called robotics. i go on this more frequently than facebook or myspace or anything else combined. it is just flat out amazing. embrace the addiction!

Re: Chief Delphi? Addicting?

I'd say it is somewhat addicting. But I think that is a good thing. It proves that knowledge can be addicting. How cool is that? Now, if we could just get everyone addicted to knowledge, just think of what we can accomplish.

Re: Chief Delphi? Addicting?

Addicting? No. An incredibly useful source of information? Yes.

Re: Chief Delphi? Addicting?

Well I have a lot of people I consider friends in robotics and most of them use CD so if there is no other way of talking to them it is a very useful tool. I mean if you just sat here and didnt do anything than maybe it might be addicting but its more of a communication tool for me. ^_^

Re: Chief Delphi? Addicting?

Addicting? That depends who you ask. My friends here at MIT who were on robotics teams in high school understand why I frequent it, those who don't (like my roommate) don't really understand.

I mean, I do spend a lot of time on Chief Delphi, especially during build season, but I also get good grades, do lots of extracurriculars, have friends and a social life, and (occasionally) sleep. If I need to do other things, I will, but I will admit I'm hooked.
