Re: To chit chat or not to chit chat
I see both sides of the argument, but I think that we all have to remember, everyone here as a life outside of FIRST (some just don't want to admit it). Chit-Chat is the place where we get to know what kind of lives people have outside of FIRST and where we get to know each other as people, not as engineers, or future engineers, or robot builder, etc. (whatever your title may be). I like chit-chat because as it was said earlier, it is a recess from FIRST, and that's important.
That being said, I think that the Chit-Chat forum has gone down in quality, and there are A LOT of useless threads. So while I say we keep the forum, I agree with DJ that there should be stricter rules on the types of threads. Maybe a limit to how many threads a person can create a week (month) ?? Or something along those lines possibly ...

In the end engineering is what happens between your ears, not what you build with your hands, not what a machine spits out.
