That may be the case, you're probably right.

After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.
I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.
For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.
From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.
Sincerely, Jeff D.

Just curious... Where did you find this? I'm trying to find an 'official' source that explains how a retired greek-named storm would work, or IF one can be retired. Thanks!
Mike Gauldin
Heh, they (tropical storms name panel) probably never thought this would happen, and if it did, if Alpha would be significant enough to retire (or rename).

From the 11:30am Tropical Weather Outlook... Several globals have forecast the development of a tropical cyclone over the southwestern Caribbean for a couple of days. In fact, I see that the GFS has come around to developing a tropical cyclone in this area as well. This cyclone (Beta?) probably won't be a threat to the US given its location, but it could be a prolific rainfall producer for central America. Any know of other cyclones that have developed in this area in the past?
