Are there things you would like to see added to the site that would add to the discussion or interest?

To address the elephant in the room models are a heavy lift and would take time and resources.

Snow! Can we get snow?!

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

Maybe links to free models/etc in an easy to find tab at the top of the page. Or maybe you already have this somewhere

Start a poll

 

[BullCityWx]

A block feature, like the person no longer walks this realm.

 

[SASQUATCH]

Live chat

 

[packfan98]

Having the thread auto-load new replies when open.

 

[tractor girl]

An educational section that is better utilized, esp from mets in the field to help new learners

“Dead to me” functionality. As in, if you ignore a person, you don’t see their posts they make or their posts in others you don’t have blocked who reply to them, and they also can’t see your posts.

 

[mrdaddyman]

1) Q&A Section where members can ask questions about the models, patterns, etc. and mets or more knowledgeable posters can answer them. Folks sometimes just post model output without a caption or explanation of what they are trying to convey.
2) Facepalm reaction

Can we get an APP of our own instead of chrome search

I don't think this exists unless we invest in a much more advanced and expensive forum software

 

[LukeBarrette]

Voice chat? I know that’s pretty much discord but that could be cool

Yes, poster specific blacklists are normally handled by a domain/forum run web extensions. But as mentioned, $$$$.

I liked seeing the member statistics

Or as an alternative, why not just keep the positive emojis (thumbs up, love, thank you etc). If someone doesn’t like your post, they can move along and/or ignore you. No need to on someone’s post. Accentuate the positive .

People got angry with a thumbs down. People got annoyed when we removed everything but like. People don't seem to like any of the reaction changes even if suggested. I'm sure if there was a poll left up for a good week or so we'd know how many favor what system

Works for me.

Bring back Birdman

 

[Arcc]

I recommend a “pay members to post”plan. I bet it would be a huge hit with everyone.

 

[Avalanche]

Bring back Birdman

His influence on here would be minimal now because there aren’t any snowstorms capable of collapsing roofs and extreme cold leaving us vulnerable for days without help. That’s what he specializes in.

I’ve enjoyed all the emojis.

I loved how he specialized in drumming up concern for ordinary systems making them appear to be of the catastrophic and world-ending variety.

I think a weekly live show hosted by me would be a hit.

I would pay a monthly subscription to watch you and Birdman do a weekly show together.

Turns out Kitty Bump passed away in real life. They were just getting started.

Is there a way to block the word cruise from the site, asking for a friend

It’s embarrassing that a weather centric forum has an eight sided snowflake emoji.
