I don't think I can say anything that hasn't been said before. Good job!

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.

I just wanted to thank Mike also for representing the chaser community in a very positive light with all that has been going on lately. People need to start to realize the benefits or having chasers around severe storms and this is a prime example. I know the majority of use are not "medical" professionals, but during a disaster like a tornado hitting a town any kind of assistance can help. In this case, Mike was willing to help some injured civilians and take them to the hospital. Often times we are the first ones on the scene and with that I think we are very valuable to the community as a whole. Congrats again Mike on a job well done!

Great story!!!!...Great job Mike.....Guy's and Gal's....If the only thing that you have is yourself you can help....When you are out chasing carry leather gauntlet gloves and have an old pair of overalls or long pants,boots or closed toe sturdy shoes, paper towels, some bottled water and duct tape..."MacGyver" first aid can save a life....you can make compresses and control bleeding with tape and towels....move debris with gloves, pants and shoes....Take Red Cross first aid when you have the chance...Carry some Purel or other alcohol based cleaners to clean and disinfect your hands...Get a simple first aid kit at "WALLY WORLD" or another box store...You can go as basic as you need to....the most important part is to protect yourselves and stay safe...
