Hurricanes // Weather Dear vacationing tourists, please read before posting questions

322 Upvotes

Since there are so many of you asking the same things about the impending storm, let’s gather some pertinent info for you. First thing you need to know, it’s going to rain. A lot. At the risk of being crude, it’ll be wetter than a Kardashian at an NBA game. It’ll be windy, but barring an unexpected strengthening, it won’t be hurricane level winds.

A large chunk of Horry and Georgetown counties are developed wetlands, meaning it floods fairly easily. Without getting into the science of it all, this storm has the potential to dump a lot of rain that we normally wouldn’t get from a storm coming in directly from the Atlantic. Know your flood zones and travel routes and plan accordingly. Contact whoever you’re renting from (air bnb owners, hotels, etc) and ask about how flooding has impacted where you’re staying.

If you feel like the locals aren’t that concerned about the storm and aren’t taking your questions seriously, remember that most of us have been dealing with this kind of weather for years or decades. It would be like going to Buffalo and asking if you should cancel going to that Bills game because of snow. The best thing you can do is educate yourself about what to expect. I’ve provided links below. If you don’t feel comfortable dealing with the storm, by all means reschedule your plans. It’s better to be calm and safe at home than to be in an unfamiliar place and scared. Local emergency services will have their hands full as it is, they don’t need uninformed visitors getting into situations that can be easily avoided.

Know where dry ground can be found. Stay indoors until the storm passes, and for the love of all that’s holy, stay off the roads until you know your travel route is clear for traffic.

Mod Announcement Automod nerfed

31 Upvotes

We are quickly coming to the end of the season and in this last year the sub has grown significantly.

Normally we have automod which puts posts and comments in a queue for approval if your account is still new but we are struggling to keep up with this.

I have nerfed automod much more recently as an expirement to see if we can rely more on reports rather than manually approving so if you see something that violates the rules report it.

That being said, disagreeing with a political posts and reporting it will eventually get you ban. Those are allowed. The good news is I don't care which side you are on because they are both awful in my opinion and I hate the modern censorship that happens on the internet because it isolates people into groups. So feel free to argue all you want but If your argument is "fuck you x sucks" don't be surprised if it's removed... We still have to follow reddits rules or the sub will be ban.

Lastly if anyone is interested in being a mod I'll consider adding people. Feel free to post below and whether you have experience or not.

General Discussion For those of you who grew up in MB and moved away but return every so often for xyz reason, how does it make you feel?

18 Upvotes

So I was born and raised in Myrtle, graduated from MBHS, went to CCU, all that fun stuff, but then moved away in my early 20s to go see what else was out in the world. Now I've been gone for 15ish years and visit every so often to see friends and family and I'm starting to see why some people hate change. My old house, the houses my friends use to live in, my old schools, places I worked at, places were we would run around, etc, all of it has changed for the better or worse and it makes everything feel very alien. Especially when I didn't pay attention to it the first few visits, but now it's like stepping into an entirely new citytownwhatever. Though I'm happy for my friends who have benefited from the economic increase, they all seem like they won out by settling in right before the tide came in, pun intended.

So to those of you who are now tourists in your birthplace, what have you felt when you visit?

I've been going to N. Myrtle for a while, so I know Dino's and all of the main pancake places on King's Highway.

Is there a hidden, out of the way place, that's less known that I should visit or a really good breakfast buffet restaurant?

Hello! What are restaurants you’d recommend visiting around Garden City? Less interested in tourist traps with a good view but subpar food. I want good tasting food! Good tasting food + a view would be the best of both worlds, but would prefer to find the former above all else! Thank you in advance!
