1. I never give the top rating. I have always believed there is always room for improvement

2. Extremely good site, actually keep an s2k info up at work when there is an active storm as often I get info here that I otherwise wouldnt get right away

You realize that anyone who thought a 4 was right probably isn't hanging around here ...

But I put in a 10, because I never thought I'd have such a chance to talk to professional Mets, and be treated with such respect no matter how dumb my questions were! Plus, all the weatherheads out there telling me what's going on where they are is way better than any color sat image!

I said a 9. Room for improvement, but almost anything is that way.

I would like to see a storm2k team! And more coverage on teamspeak particularly during a storm - seems it would come and go in lulls - i do understand that most everyone is in florida therefore could be affected by it, thus less coverage, but would be nice if we could get a schedule of people going to actually keep it going the 24/7 as it is coming in as well as afterwards.
Otherwise - a fantastic site that had me prepared each time!

You beat me to it Chad. If someone is really of the mind that this site is really bad and deserves a low rating, I too, as a staff member would like to know what we can do to improve. Nothing manmade is ever perfect. There is always room for improvement. If those that voted the lower numbers are just mad because they may have been suspended once(or more)I guess it is their right to feel that way, but I would encourage them to really take a long look and figure out why those types of things happen and why the lower numbers are definitely in the minority.

Thanks, Chad.

I am also wondering what those who don't believe this site is, say, above a 7 would want improved/see differently.

I look foward to many more years here at S2K. Thanks to all the members for helping make S2K "The Legal Addiction" :P

Just about everyone that doesn't like this board is against it because of the atmosphere. I don't believe there is much else anyone dislikes (or hates) about it.

They claim we are "too kind to each other," words to that affect, anyway.

I believe depotoo means we need a storm team to chase hurricanes, complete with an SUV and a big S2K logo on it.

Sure Linda. Those that "don't like being kind to each other," aren't "rude to each other." I've asked the question before and haven't gotten a concrete answer.
