Wow, I don't know which is worse-admins who are too strict, or admins who are too lax.  <_<
Me neither, but if I had to pick, it would be strict administration. Forums like this one and TWCC however are perfect; not too strict or too lax. B)
Speaking of forums with little or no administration or moderation, Taiganet. That place is falling apart.

Something is really wrong with my IS. None of the cities are displaying sky conditions. :wacko:
Mine is having the same problem. Must be nationwide.
Same thing here. HiRAD is down and my backup site is reporting observations.

TV newstalk is still bad.  I never post there.  I do go there every now and then, usually to chat with someone from the same market area I live in, so we can rave on our local news stations.  But, usually, I will post if it has anything to do with TWC (sometimes) or something that related to my stations.

cfif is still there.. :rolleyes:

If you at least have a degree in broadcasting, you could probably do weather, only not have title "meteorologist".  There have been a few times here, where they just had a "weather anchor"  If you know enough about weather, you should be okay.

Agreed. That forum use to be a peaceful and quiet place, up until the past year when a whole bunch of people joined and posted the same stuff over and over again. It's a mess now. <_<

agreed, Its becuase people want the latest version of the emulator.

Bill seldomly logs in the forums and so many people are cranky that they're going to ask the same questions over and over again <_<

i'm not interested in being a meteorologist.  I like to be a storm chaser but math is important b/c you need to claculate your driving distances and if a tornado comes too close to you and you run out of gas, that's a problem. :blink:

The very reason I made my own 4000 emulator is because there's no progress on the taiganet emulator.

At 2:29 PM it appears that HiRAD was completely down. No Current Conditions were being reported and the Radar was unavailable.

Only during the 36 hour forecast and the extended forecast. How does satellite look? Do all the cities on the LDL say 'No Report'?
