Banter and BS December 2011

Recommended Posts

F the Rangers...Giants yes...the Giants are like the Blocking we need for this winter, lost 4 games in a row, and always waiting on the 4th Quarter comeback!

Question is, who is our Eli Manning? NAO? AO? PNA? MJO? ET? Who will lead the drive down the field to at least field goal range (a few nice storms)...

Must be an Ice Lander fan!!!

I have been following model runs since the late 90's..I have never seen such horrible runs for cooler or cold weather ..this has been since Irene in late August..4 months of the same thing..even in 01-02 you had some cooldowns in the fall..even turned cold during the holidays..07-08 had a little snow in December..this is flat out getting absurd..this pattern has to break sometime.I keep waiting

dont be that guy....

Seriously. If you want 70s in December move to south Florida, snow or not. He probably hasn;t made the move yet because the humidity down there would ruin his perm.

Earthlight has disappointed me :(

We love you Earthlight hug.gif

These posts are a good example of why the banter thread should be done away with...everybody posts absolutely useless garbage in here and nobody participates in any constructive discussion anymore. Get your sh*t together, people.

I'm confused...the point of the Banter thread is just that. To banter! Why do away with it when you never know the negative consequences of doing away with it? At least moderators now have a thread in which they can remove useless posts from more "constructive" threads and place them in the banter/garbage thread. But what do I know?

Disagree! Banter thread brings the board community together, lightens the mood a bit during snow droughts such as this one!

It is nice to talk about some non-weather **** once in a while to get a feel for who is on here...every single other thread is for constructive discussion!

Maybe it's time for you to make a sub-sub forum and call it "Banter and BS" so we can keep the "Banter and BS" thread from filling up with banter and BS.

I agree with what you're saying. But 90% of this forums posts are in the banter thread. Which means everybody is just defaulting to this thread because they know it won't be moderated and they can just post bullsh*t and not have to worry about it.

i agree, but there is not much to discuss about being that there are no imminent storms and not everyone is familiar with long range forecasting and patterns. Its becoming the same thing everyday now, the long range models are showing no major changes. Once we get our first real snowstorm in January (i hope) everyone will starts posting alot in the main threads i think. It sucks that this pattern sucks

Case in point the banter thread was pretty dead during the last threat. The vast majority of the posts being made at the time were in the discussion thread.

Because there is nothing to talk about.

If there were no banter thread, there would be 5-10 posts a day max.

That's the law of unintended consequences at work. Same fear I have is that if the Banter is removed, so too will be the posters. While it sounds good now to think of how many garbage posts would be eliminated, you might mistakenly take some of the life out of the forums.

Talk about a dilemma...ee.gif
