CALFIREBC · October 12, 2019, 7:34pm

Seems like were off topic!

WTS110 · October 12, 2019, 7:51pm

Please try to keep these forums focused. Facebook is for trash talking-pun intended.

DivisionZulu · October 13, 2019, 5:30am

Let’s keep the posts on topic and leave this forum to discussion about the FIRE. The off topic content has been out of control lately.

Mod7 · October 13, 2019, 2:35pm

FOR ALL. If you feel remarks are “off topic”, please press on the 3 dots next to REPLY, it will say SHOW MORE. Under that category you can press the flag and send your thoughts to an Admin or Moderator for further review. We as Admin and Moderators try to see all the comments but some we do miss.
This site is for all of us to keep up on the incidents, lets keep it clean on ON TOPIC.

ajohansson · October 13, 2019, 3:11pm

isnt this the Q and A part of the incident?

You allow posts to remain that say the city could be sued because of lack of adequate fire protection but remove my post explaining that there is no mandate for fire protection? There is nobody to sue.

2ndLine1stWord · October 13, 2019, 3:58pm

Yeah I’m confused as well. Discussing cause and origin and initial response seems like it would be on topic.

DivisionZulu · October 13, 2019, 4:18pm

You guys may have missed some of the discourse, it was headed in an unproductive direction. Some well intentioned posts may have gotten caught in the crossfire and deleted. This should be questions and discussion about the fire activity and intel relating to current actions. When things get off into the weeds about cause and Fire protection responsibility, it causes replies to get opinionated and very off topic. It has happened in the past, and a new sub thread has been created to discuss that particular aspect of the incident.
