A large hurricane is estimated to head right for Florida. Its passed/passing over the Carribean and causing a lot of destruction.

 

TAKE HEED AND TAKE APPROPRIATE EXPECTATIONS OF A POSSIBLE LARGE HURRICANE.

 

Thanks and good luck.

Note exactly sure if this will help you understand why I give out a warning since i'm not sure if this man/ or woman really did not know, however when i sent out the warning for the gulf coast hurricane i got this response.

"FUUUUUCK! I didn't know this And I live in the GUlf Coast! Thank you for the Thread! THANK YOU!

TIme to pack the bag to Kansas city again!

Thanks!"

If that person were being serious, im glad I let them know ahead of time.

 

And no, the sarcasm was not needed.

Well, im bored as fuck.. and tbh you gotta be pretty stupid if u live a place a hurricane is coming and you dont know abit it.. you have to agree with that? And im pretty sure whoever thanked you so much was being sarcastic aswell, so meh. But there is always some ppl who dont pay attention to the world so maybe, just maybe u saved a few lifes :p

 

Currently playing: EvE Online, Mount & Blade: Warband, Skyrim.

Waiting for Guild Wars 2

  I know, im not trying to really nag at you, im just saying that theres the possiblity someone could have just woke up or something and had not the slightest idea about it. I mean i was working at a town faire untill 5 o clock and got home to read the yahoo news saying a giant hurricane is headed for Florida.

 

Never know though.

"and tbh you gotta be pretty stupid if u live a place a hurricane is coming and you dont know abit it.."

agreed.

wow this community is getting pretty sad when people actually question the OP for making this thread.

like he said, if he helps alert 1 of 100,000 people who may read this forum then it is worth it, also better safe than sorry.

Believe it or not, there are some super geeks out there who will literally sit in their computer chair in a basement, roll over and fall asleep on a couch or bed, then wake up and get right back to it.  While unlikely, it is possible for someone in the effected areas to be completely oblivious to major news like this.

Grow up. 

Thank you OP.

Common sense voids your logic I'm afraid. Posting a thread to warn those of a hurricane on a online game forums doesn't do anything. People living in these areas will get the information sooner or later, not one single person who is capable of walking, talking and reading will miss this storm information. I live in Florida and I can tell you no matter where you go if a Hurricane is bearing down on a specific area people all talk about it and the news is everywhere.

You would have to be pretty much a vegetable in order to not know. This isn't a flame toward you but a reply to your logic from a person whos been and lived through many hurricanes.
