Dude, I'm just going to say it, this is our unifying battle cry right here. I am 1000% in agreement with this. If we would actually get along, bring over a few leftover great posters from American, this would be the best weather forum going and the Southeastern American forum would fold like a cheap tent.

For the first time in a long time I couldn’t agree more, there’s nothing more none of us here can’t stand than the SE US American wx mods and it would be a huge stepping stone for this forum if we get to watch that forum crumble to the ground. We’re lucky to have a place like this to compete with them and we should cherish it. Look, even if you’re not gonna say it or fully accept this I’m sorry for the way I’ve been treating you the last few years on here really and I do mean that. I’m gonna do my best to stay in my lane when needed, be more respectful, &/or supportive, if we have an issue with one another maybe it’s better settled in personal messages instead next time? While we may not become friends, we shouldn’t remain at each other’s throats like this and walking on eggshells so to speak 24-7-365 esp if we ever want this place to easily supersede Americanwx in the long run. Cheesy comparison perhaps but if the sworn bitter enemies of the US and Soviet Union could find a way to become allies in WW II for the good of dismantling the Nazis, we surely can’t find a way to come up with more common ground and at least get along (as you said).

Who’s that ogre guy over there? He’s always sarcastic as hell.
 
The number one reason I asked to be a moderator here was because of what I saw happening to SE forum at American. I wanted to help make this forum the best it can be. We can have fun and discuss the weather while keeping the moderating fair and reasonable.

Has anyone tried to get griteater to post here? The Mountain thread over there is a good one.

I still post there during storms because there are so many more posters close to my backyard.

I feel the thread over here started going downhill a bit once we knew some regions in GA and SC were going to miss out. I know we don’t have any sub forums here, but it can be a little hectic with so many areas represented when we are trying to hone in on a threat.

My two cents for now.

Getting griteater to become a regular here would be massive, he’s one of the few remanining posters over there that even make that place worth going to from time to time

I sincerely appreciate this, I accept your apology, and offer my own. I am sorry for the ridiculously mean things I called you and I am ashamed of myself for it. I am typing this with one hand and holding a sick toddler with the other - I have more to say and I will later but I am in total agreement with everything you said.

I also like Lookout from AW, his posts are usually worthwhile and he seems to be very reasonable and civil.

He is. He’s a CAD expert for sure. He’s the best moderator over there. I believe he got sick a couple of years ago and that’s when thing went downhill in the forum. He seems to be posting regularly again.
