Misc 2019 Banter & Friendly Conservation

Judges ruling: Complaining about the weather was implicitly conveyed. But since it wasn’t stated in a specific and closed-ended manner, complaining about the thread will be permitted unless overridden by a 2/3 majority.

You said quit complaining about this thread. That's NOT in the rules!

So true. And I should have put other posters. So let me correctly state for these on the thread...Stop bitching about other posters and move along!

Will you guys stop bickering and take a minute to legitimately answer this:

What are you expecting/looking for from this message board?

I think interest in the weather is what brings every single one of us here but some of these off topic message boards are where we kind of get to be ourselves while at the same time keeping weather the centerpiece. I realize personality isn’t for everyone and some people like the thought of being “Chief Meteorologist” of a weather board but some of us are just here to have fun, learn, contribute, and chase our great white buffalo

Glad to be the premier exhibit. Hey, it's up to you to decide why you come here. If you want to mindlessly post drivel and be on the ignore list of all the cogent posters, that's up to you. And it's most certainly not done just in here, despite the claims of that being the purpose of this thread.

Fair enough. Go ahead and leave me on ignore. I don’t come here to read your posts anymore than you come here to read mine. This is a great forum and would function just the same without either one of us

It seems many of you are so much better at tone over text than I am. I always find it very hard to read tone in text...but in that case, at least then the poster replying to the actual post, giving the person a chance to defend their argument. Here it’s just cowardly jabs about posts and/or posters in another section. That’s the point. I’ve been in wx forums since the eastern days, and I was always taught “read more, post less”...when someone knowledgeable shuts you down, it might not be fun and yeah it sucks, but maybe they’re right? If I disagree with someone like Webb or 1300 (I have in the past), I know I better be ready to defend my point, because they know their stuff.

I heard for years also "read more and post less" but to be honest that's why I left some of the other places.... what's the enjoyment if all I'm to do is read. I understand what you are saying but just as some of the banter can be taken wrong by new visitors so can the approach of read more and post less. We want a message board that invites many to the table of discussion, not just pros, not just hobbyist, not just a regular everyday individual that wants to know if it's going to snow or not, but all.
Again one reason this obvious parody thread was developed was to allow those satirical one liners, gripes, complaints and plain fun. You know it's funny, it's that little kid in each of us that drives our passion for winter weather (if we're honest) and it's also that little kid in each of us that drives a thread like this.... anyway if we need to move it down a couple a threads or put a warning label then so be it and as each of us has said, personal attacks are not going to be tolerated.
 
BTW, everything I've been posting in here tonight was just "B.S." so hope no one got upset. Isn't this thread awesome?!
