Reply to comment by froggedfrogginson in bronze alert from UPMC, any details? by penchick

I think it's because you said "is that better or worse than a silver alert" which sounds snarky. Alerts aren't ranked by "badness," different colors just mean different things

Different colors could mean different levels of badness especially if you don’t know their meanings. Code Brown = Somebody pooped, Code Yellow = Somebody peed, or different levels like the Olympics Bronze, Silver and Gold. It’s a legitimate question especially if you have no context to what a Code Bronze means.
