I don't see why it's necessary to post an update for every quake on the list, as it's getting pretty close to spam. For example, the recent quake at Taupo, Reporoa and Whakamaru calderas were all the same tiny quake with an epicentre well away from the calderas themselves. The quake was centred around Rotorua, and would not even have made local news there.
I can't find reliable information on many of the other quakes, but it is quite possible that they are not related to the super volcanoes that they report on if it happens with the ones here in NZ. Can we verify whether they are actually located close to the volcanoes? Otherwise the updates are inane and not worth reporting as relevant to the volcanoes themselves.

You have obviously whizzed through the headlines and not bothered to read the single sentence I wrote which says what took you a whole paragraph to do.

Rainbows to you too.
Sorry, I don't like making short posts which lack substance. It took me a paragraph to explain what I knew from my own research and basic knowledge. I checked myself and found the quake here, hence I wrote what I found and why it has no relevance to the "super volcanoes" in the updates. The quake was very close, or within the caldera which is Lake Rotorua, but not Reporoa, Whakamaru or Taupo.
But you seem to have missed (or not bothered to read) my question on whether the quakes you are updating have any relevance to the "super volcano" that they are being attributed to. I have shown that the quakes in the updates for the New Zealand volcanoes are not related at all to the volcanoes themselves. So do you know how relevant the others are to their respective volcanoes?

I will have to agree with you. As this thread can be misleading and cause in my opinion worry to some new members or even members that have no knowledge of quake/volcanic activity. For example: If i was a member that did not have a clue about Earthquakes then this thread would scary the hell out of me.
OP you can not seem to back up your information with facts such as, are these quakes magmatic or tectonic? As we all know there are most of the time harmonic tremors that increase in size and move closer to the surface. Also we will have other signs of volcanic awakening.
As I have said in previous posts, some of the quakes you are listing do not show up on reliables quake data sites.
A question to you op, have you done research on all the "super volcanoes" you have listed here in your thread?
Thanks
