Look at the links from the previous thread - that gives BFE a new definition. There was NOT going to be an issue with overload. While your points are valid, they don't apply to this case in any form.

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.

How do we keep another LEO from doing the same thing? I have found most of them to be very courteous, and understanding of what we are doing out there, but there has to be a few of these rogue individuals sprinkled around the plains that have it out for chasers.

How do you PREVENT it? That's not possible.
Rob Hedrick
I know we cannot prevent someone from arresting chasers, but I have altered some chase habits to avoid the convergence such as using back roads, as opposed to main highways, and county roads. I think that if confronted by a rogue LEO, something as simple as "Okay Officer" then driving "away" and moving to a different location would have s/him lose interest. It may be unavoidable, but as many sheriff-nadoes (what the rest of us would call scud) that get reported every year, maybe the LEO are targeting the wrong bunch.

MOVE
When an officer tells me to do something like move down the road...I DO IT....My parents taught me that when I was like 5. The cop should have and could have just beat him down whenever he lunged back at him in the video. Luckily he got a brain for .05 seconds. Your not superman out there. If law enforcement tells you to move...then move. You would have had to go down the road or to another spot and look....no court costs....not having your name out in the public.....nothing.....just drove down the road.
