Know what not to post? Sure if he posted a picture of some guy ripped in half by a forklift or other machinery saying it was the best robot ever it would be inappropriate, but its a paint drawing. Trying to be funny? Sure its a dumb joke, but your rationale is the reason kids get expelled from school for playing cops and robbers and pointing a chicken nugget at another kid and saying "bang". Who give s a$@#$@#$@#$@#? Lighten up.

You send the artist a title, and he draws a picture of it.

Fair enough.. so that means the picture was a potluck pic, but it did have intent.

If it were me, I wouldn't have shared this with the general FIRST community though.

Live and Learn...

Don't be that guy who starts threads that will go downhill fast.

<ughh.. why do I keep responding to this.... Should have stayed away from the beginning. Oh well, live and learn on my part too.. >

It was a dark and stormy night. The ChiefDelphi forums were being ravaged by the effects of the Man Eating Robot's presence in their community. Widespread panic, paranoia, and irrational behavior were spreading throughout the people of the neighborhood like wildfire. Who among them would be brave and sensible enough to properly confront this terror in their midst? Suddenly, without warning, a shining beacon of light appeared on the (mid)western horizon. Lo, it was Team 48's 2004 robot, xtremachen7, there to save the day! This gallant robot knight from Warren acted quickly, striking a blow to the Man Eating Robot's deadly jaws using its telescoping arm as a spear. It then used its powerful single speed tank tread base to push the disabled beast out of the ChiefDelphi community forever and ever, amen.

The people of CD should have been grateful to xtremachen7 for delivering them from evil, but instead, they started a new thread complaining how XM7 acted too much like a BattleBot during its efficient disposal of their foe. Sigh.
