I wasn't here then, but I suspect the complaints were targeted at the data source, but were in fact the problem of IGate operators that configured their IGates to transmit alerts for a much larger area than their reasonable RF footprint.
That probably caused the problem that Tom described on RF, but the majority of complaints were from people hooked to APRS-IS that had clients that couldn't filter out all the BLUE objects (WX objects and River Gauge objects).
I'm trying to figure out a way to support a filtered gating of such information for any IGates running APRSISCE/32 and they'll probably be based on the NWS office being explicitly specified in the filter component(s).
