JetPhoto, you hit the nail on the head. Even though it's a little thing, it's a way to let people know we appreciate them taking the time to post and add knowledge, information, or photos to our community, making it better for everyone.

It's the nice thing to do, easy and same as liking something on Facebook. Give people some credit for posts you like.

I gave you a like, Jim, because it's definitely something that's gone to the wayside. A lot of members won't reply to posts, and then they get to the point where they read and just move on. It's like looking at Facebook all day....eventually you just see a few posts and move on. But sometimes there's a great topic and some awesome information that comes across the threads, and no one acknowledges that they were there, that they read anything! I'm just as guilty of this, as sometimes I'm just catching up on things or just reading a few threads before I have to run out the door.
But, you're right. We should be acknowledging each other a little more with that tiny blue button in the lower left corner.

I notice fewer & fewer people using the "Like This" button, now of course everyone is not going to "Like" everything but consider the contribution the person made to the topic.
As an example if a person creates an "Incident Alert" and they really take the time to put some details in the story please consider giving them some credit. I have seen some people who no longer post them because it appears no one cares.
If people post some photos of an incident and you like them let them know by hitting that "Like" button.
Good conversation started or comments you agree with in a topic give them some credit hit the button.
Just my opinion
Jim

 

 

 

 

Has anyone attended the Firehouse Expo 2016  in Nashville .
I am looking for some feedback.
How did it compare to Baltimore and FDIC in Indinapolis? 

What a disgrace. And this individual is in a career of helping people, give me a break.

I do a lot of highway driving in the tri-state area. People are just oblivious as to what is going on around them while driving.
I have noticed that there really is not much traffic enforcement on our local highways anymore.
Whatever happened  to the  NYS Police UNmarked blue tahoes,  I don't see them on the road any longer.

Well done, Seth.
Keep up the good work.

I completely rebuilt the front page of http://www.emtbravo.com/ . Although it looks exactly the same, I cleaned up a lot of the old unused code, upgraded existing code and wrote some new code on the backend. This should also make it render better on mobile devices. I will also be adding more features in the near future. 
 
Can a few of you check it to make sure it's rendering/showing properly? I want to make sure.

In New York City ,the smaller trucks are known as REP's (Radio Emergency Patrol)
They respond to numerous types of situations, there main function is SWAT.
Other assignments they respond to - EDP calls, search and recovery of evidence, vehicle extrication, hostage situation, barricaded subjects, search for perps. jumpers. scene lighting etc.
There motto is - When the people need help they call the police, when the police need help they call for Emergency Service.

They initially asked for a truck from Scarsdale to relocate into Yonkers.
However, Scarsdale did not respond.
Could be due to manpower issues.
