My Hattiesburg Forum breaking records

In the past month, we have broken several of our own records over at the forums. The most notable of which is we have broken the 1000 post per day barrier and posted 1,101 posts in one day. In addition, we’re also quickly approaching 11,000 posts in one month. We have an average of 100+ people logging in per day and thousands more reading. I’d like to say thanks for all of those involved in the My Hattiesburg Post Drive, thanks to big john for making the 10,000th post this month, and all the people that contribute to the community to make it a success.

P.S from No-Halo: Thanks to noway for being the Easter Bunny. Without his inspirational story, we might not have reached our goal.

Hattiesburg Smoking Ban

Just to make sure this information gets out to everyone that might be affected by this. The city council has approved a smoking ban for the city limits of Hattiesburg. It will ban smoking inside all buildings accessible to the public or businesses with employees and within 15 feet of the main entrances to those buildings. This includes all bars/restaurants and will take effect on January 1st. There is a discussion on the smoking ban taking place on our forums.

Another important issue decided at this meeting was that 20-year veteran David Webster will be taking over as Hattiesburg fire chief on December 11th.
