ALL ADDTIONAL INFORMATION,PHOTOS, AND DISCUSSION HAS BEEN MOVED TO THIS THREAD IN INCIDENT WORKSHOP: http://emtbravo.just5buckshosting.com/phpB...opic.php?t=2419

Temporarily tabled for the time being. Hopefully something will be produced within the next couple of months. x635 has been swamped with other projects, both personal and site-related, and this one is unfortunetly lower on the priority list. I will continue to bother him about it though so he gets it done :wink: Also be advised a Paypal Donation System is in the works. MAYBE MAYBE an photo calendar as well before the other projects.

Topic Split (Thnx WAS967) Answering service discussion can now be found on this thread: http://emtbravo.just5buckshosting.com/phpB...p?p=10690#10690

There are clear rules posted on this board. If you don't follow the rules (or guidelines) on this board, your posts get deleted. Doesn't matter who you are, moderator, member, anyone....doesnt matter what you posted....Period. The reason why the rules are here, and are strictly enforced, are to keep this board a healthy and positive place to discuss fire and EMS issues and events. It's too easy to let this board get out of control, and this to be one big trash-fest. That is not going to happen, nor is one member going to intentionally bother another. If a member continously violates the rules and provokes other members, then his/her posts, as well as their membership is subject to deletion without warning. Of course, that is the last thing we want to do, but it is not fair to all the members that do follow the rules and positiviely contribute to this forum. There is to much going on here, there is no time to be able to watch over certain members. One of the many reasons why the moderators are here because this board is too big to manage completly on my own. I don't feel like I need to say anymore, since the moderators and members who posted on this thread did an excellent job of explaining it. Thank you guys. You've given great advice for all members. http://emtbravo.just5buckshosting.com/phpBB2/rules.php

Special thanks to ALL the members and moderators that actively post and read this board, and to all that support it, you guys are what makes the board go, grow, and what makes the board what it is.. To all members, please keep up the awesome activity and posting on this board, I know I am learning a ton, accessing information that was never easily accesible, as well as meeting some awesome new people through this board. I also want to encourage those who just read the board to start posting and sharing your comments and information. Here's to the next year..........

Thanks Chris! :-)

](*,) Does anybody know what time they are saying the snow will start in the NY area tommmorow?

Thanks to all for the interest....hang tight, as we are trying to develop some ideas that we have for some products. It just takes some time, which, between all the endeavors under our belts, is scarce. So, with that said, look for some things coming soon.

Does anybody have any ideas as to what we could do? Looking for the more "unique" concepts, as well as designs,etc. IF we are going to do something, I don't want it to be just something that says the name. It's gotta have a function, or send a message, something unique and innovative. Any ideas please feel free to discuss here, or email me @ EMTBravo@EMTBravo.com

The forum has been created in the General Fire/EMS issues section. Thanks for the suggestion and input!

Westchester EMSTrivia: This is how this will work: 1) Once the question has been posted, the person that posts it will be responsible for watching to see when the question gets answered correctly. 2) Once the question is answered correctly, they will need to post who got it correct first. 3) The person that had the correct answer will post the next question.(Staying on this thread) I'll start What year was Mount Kisco VAC founded?
