What's wrong w/ bolt wx?  What you all are doing is prejudice.   Let's wait for the site to even come out.
It's just the same as SS8. the same leaders, same maps, graphics... everything, but just a different name ;)

No one has taken over, and we are not the same as SS8. The graphics and maps are still the same as SS8 because we made the decision literally just a day before this happened, so we didn't have time to make anything new. This is also why our stream hasn't been updated in a few days.
The maps are more or less taken directly from weather.com, aren't they?  :thinking:
I think the more suting word would be "transcribing" from weather.com....

Who wants to be a part of a site operated like that? You can tell its run by a 15 year old kid, even if your totally unfamiliar with it.

Jeremy isn't working with bolt, as far as I know. I think that Andrew or Michael is running it now...  :dunno:

Andrew's running it, because he bought the domain name. And because of him being in charge, I quit. Personally I feel sorry for Jeremy and Michael. They will have to deal with Andrew and his retarded acts.

I agree... At first, I was really mad about this, but then I realized that I don't need to put up with the policies, and other things.

I respect jeremy's desicion to abandon the project. You know, I personaly liked it when he ran it. The Edition before a team was developed, the program had character, but since Andrew and Michael and everyone else joined the team, it wound up to be a total disaster :noexpression:

Here's my opinion, like it or dislike it as you see fit. 15 year olds shouldn't be trying to run websites and forums. Why do you suppose I waited so long to start mine? Because I wanted to observe the workings of other similar sites like TWCMB and TWCC. 

I didn't start TWCT until I was sure I had the knowledge and experience I felt was necessary. These teenagers just jump right in thinking it must be a piece of cake, not realizing how difficult it really is.

Does this mean I can start a firing range in my basement because i'm a firearms enthusiast? Or build a nuclear reactor because i'm an amateur electrician?

electrician and nuclear physics don't go together... you'd need to be a nuclear physicist to build a nuclear reactor :P

I think its near impossible that they shut the site down since a few people complained about it on a forum. It goes deeper than that. No matter what Jeremy says

:dunno: but its what he personally told me: [1/3/2009 9:03:51 PM] Joshua Stephens (Joshua87901) says: so what started this madness
[1/3/2009 9:04:40 PM] Joshua Stephens (Joshua87901) says: the changing the name and the new policy
[1/3/2009 9:06:08 PM] SilverStar 8 says: lol, I don't know what you are talking about. I'm not part of Bolt Weather. I'm not even staying part of the TWC "fan" community much longer. Everyone showed their true colors lately on the forums and the chat rooms, ect. So I've decided to just throw my hands up and let everyone spend their holiday break complaining about SS8 and Bolt Weather (which I'm not even a part of)
[1/3/2009 9:06:57 PM] Joshua Stephens (Joshua87901) says: so who controls bolt
[1/3/2009 9:07:34 PM] Joshua Stephens (Joshua87901) says: and what forums is where everyone;s doing this
[1/3/2009 9:07:44 PM] SilverStar 8 says: Andrew/Michael someone. They MIGHT have made an exception to the rules and let you still do the forecasting since I told them you had just bought that greenscreen, but I doubt that now.
[1/3/2009 9:07:47 PM] Joshua Stephens (Joshua87901) says: im confused
[1/3/2009 9:08:27 PM] Joshua Stephens (Joshua87901) says: micheal said no one under 15 and going green is a no go
[1/3/2009 9:08:56 PM] Joshua Stephens (Joshua87901) says: and besides andrew jusy introduces and studders only micheal actually does the work
[1/3/2009 9:09:19 PM] SilverStar 8 says: Ok then. Well, seeing how, if you are confused about what is going on - and you start badmouthing everything before you know the facts - that is probably why they said no to anyone under 15.
[1/3/2009 9:09:59 PM] Joshua Stephens (Joshua87901) says: well they fired all beta testers i heard from chris
[1/3/2009 9:10:42 PM] SilverStar 8 says: They weren't exactly "fired" we just said no one under 15 can be a tester EXCEPT those that were already on the team.
[1/3/2009 9:11:59 PM] SilverStar 8 says: However, since everyone kept throwing a fit over SS8, I decided to just shut it down...myself. I wasn't forced to by TWC like a lot of people think. I went into the account manager and pressed DELETE myself.
[1/3/2009 9:12:35 PM] SilverStar 8 says: I still do greenscreen forecasts for my school, so I'm not out of forecasting the weather any.
