For the storm forum, there is a thread that describes the rules for what should and should not be posted in that forum. If I remember correctly from last year, there were also posting rules that govern the news talkbacks forum as well (I know this from frequently getting posts relocated from breaking the rules). Anyway, I would appreciate knowing what is and is not appropriate to post in the news forum, because it seems that many posts (perhaps mine included) are against what I would perceive the 'rules' to be.... Another suggestion... perhaps it would be useful to have a "Personal Conversation" board where people can talk about things that are not exactly related to meteorology.
