    Listen go over to the Airsoft forum and start annoying them because they like to shoot each , or the football forum because they like to play with balls or even the antiques forum cause they like old stuff .

    This is a forum for weather enthusiasts whom are bound to like weather extremes , to put it simply if you dont like what you see then dont come in here .

    Otherwise join in with the banter and drop the attitude :D

    i am not a selfish bastard so i do not qualify to view this thread?

    yes, much cooler than someone who comes on a weather forum and is puzzled on why people 'love snow'. You obviously have your own interests too and the fact that I have a passion about weather (and snow in particular) blinds me from the fact that it causes hardship...same goes for people who like volcanoes and volcanic eruptions and a million other examples.

    Look, if your going to quote me at least TRY to do so accurately ..
    Where did i say anything about people who "love snow"?

    I asked two simple questions, neither of which have been answered properly....

    Yet again, i never stated that i "expect people not to like extreme weather in here"
    i just asked a simple question with regards to peoples fascination with snow on here.
    I'm beginning to see the way bogus forecasts are created in here,

    Evidently. I blame the parents. They shouldn't let the kids stay up so late.

    Rite I will put it to you like this , I am not going to go to a pro drift event or even a motor show and ask the people there what's there fascination with there motors even though the car is just meant to get you from A to B, its not a toy !

    I never said you stated that but coming into a weather forum and questioning peoples fascination with the weather at hand (snow) and then calling the thread a lame duck, now your calling the forecasts bogus ??? its only asking for hassle .

    For the record , as long as I have been using the weather forum the forecasts have been on par with the full time professional MET Eireann and above them in a lot of cases .

    barney,

    Some people look forward to snow just as some people look forward to sun in summer, no great mystery about it, especially not on a weather forum... snow has been enchanting people for centuries and every year millions of tourists go off in search of it in the Alps, etc.

    lol.. I am perfectly entitled to be on this thread.. Asking a pertinent question and then defending myself from being mis-quoted is not against the charter!
    I have even tried to make a contribution to this "thread" with my up to the minute weather report!

    If i have done anything wrong then please do feel free to pm a mod.....
    Until then please try to stop forcing me from this thread.
