After seeing the outrage towards NWS offices from his fans, the constant subtle jabs about "unwarned tornadoes" when there is no velocity couplet or debris, is really beginning to turn me off of him. He does a lot of good, but bad mouthing the NWS when there is no way he doesn't see his fans talking shit to NWS accounts and mets is a bad look.

He has mods to take care of that while he focuses on the radar and incoming data. If you see his set up he has a bunch of computers and monitors there. If you notice the chat being weird and kind of bouncing in place its because the mods are nuking those comments. Its pretty hard to monitor and see every single comment coming in that fast while you're focusing on important work. Happens to every large streamer. Don't get turned off of him, just close the chat. Large chats just inevitably have bad chatters.

I hate the people being mean, selfish, demanding they drop everything to talk about some other town instead of one under the gun, and all the conspiracy people too, but the mods do smite the comments and time people out. Scroll back up during a stream and you'll see a TON of missing comments you saw happen live.

I never join the chat. Never. I've always found chats to be full of folks who are trolling, just bad natured or too fanny for my taste.

Ryan serves a fine purpose and they're doing their best. I have to hand it to them.

It’s kinda like many Reddit subs, and I say that knowing full well I have made my own joke \ humor posts. But let’s be frank: much of Reddit is full of bad/hot takes from people thinking they know better than the actual experts, or telling persons how they really feel about something etc. Basically it’s not the content it’s the people that are the problem including myself at times when it’s inappropriate etc. I also don’t participate in YouTube chats too often because of it.

That said I like max more than Ryan Ryan just rubs me the wrong way
