Fellow TWC Members,
There have been a number of complaints regarding the religious tone of many posts and in member signatures. The Weather Channel/TWCi would like for everyone to remember that this is a weather board.
Please don't take this personally, everyone is entitled to believe whatever they wish but this isn't the right forum for such discussions.
We also want to thank you for your cooperation in advance.

Ah, the blandness of the politically correct again...celebrate nothing, stand for nothing....I'm surprised that their screens still have 90-degree angles, lest some poor soul complain of being "angularly-challenged".

or Cyclone's "just saying hi" thread!!!
Deb....fyi, the PBS topic stood for Pot Belly Stove and it was Dennis I think who always started it. It was mostly a winter hangout (the porch topic is our summer hangout) for all of us, just to pop in and say hello. Like you would at an old fashioned general store - sit around the pot belly stove and shoot the breeze. Do people still say shoot the breeze? LOL

Well all of you that know me KNOW I have NEVER involved myself in the religious threads. Not even when they had off topic.
Lumara is the one that was reporting posts there. She has always been a troublemaker IMO. I am sure she got tired of our links as well. If I am banned for posting a link then so be it.

I tried that once in chat, and "breeze" keeled over in pain.

Well, what little respect I had left for the Weather Channel just went flying out the window...
I'll never watch The Weather Channel again as long as I live...ever!

What?!!! Other links are permitted....okay I'm mad once again. Thought all links were out...but oh that's right, I can't even check or read their rules b/c "some of my access rights have been removed."
Chad - they must really hate the meer mention of Storm2K in any post, link or not. Makes me want to start a new topic - HELLO WX.COM - WE SEE YOU LURKING HERE!
Oh I'm bad tonight. I'm in the early throes of a teen slumber party.....doing some nearby parenting. This could be a long night...I'll pop in here when I can!

Miss Mary, they do say that. Around here, though, the natives say "shoot the sh**."

well, TWC can go to hell!!!!!
when they tell you you cant put a religious signature on the board, who do they think they are??
If one dont like it, then one dont have to look at it, just ticks me off to see someone say you shouldnt do it....Im not ashamed of god, are you?

No, I'm not ashamed of God...but He isn't very happy with someone at TWC, and in the fulness of time, they will KNOW it!

I am not ashamed of God either ... TWC are the ones who should be ashamed.

I know Lumara did a bit of raising cane about religious anything. She would report you in a heartbeat.
TWC is run by a bunch of communists.

Ok, OWCH! - stop that "shooting the breeze", already.... :o
Yep, I agree - TWC sounds like a board right out of Communist
China. All they want to hear is how "great" they are....
