Can you suggest a new forum category?

[mikegas]

you can opt to subscribe to a thread by selecting at the top 'thread tools' and selecting 'subscribe to this thread...'

It should show up in your profile pages then

just tried this and it just stores it with all the other threads uve posted on, would be better if you had a separate list on your profile

 

[mikegas]

gas unsafe sits category would be useful

how about a section where we can moan about the general public, out of sight of the main forum . . .

Sometimes it is a bit painful when we have a post going, ripping our customers to shreds, but its on the main forum where people are asking us questions.


Call me old fasion, but I think the least we can do is talk about them behind their backs!

You need to go into your settings and select that no threads are subscribed to by default and then you can manually select what to subscribe to if and when required, any probs let me know and I will explain in more detail

Having been chatting to baltimoreplumber this morning, how about a section for our plumbing cousins around the world, Afterall we are on the world wide web and if you do I would like to offer my services as the international moderator so you can send me to meet these guys in person and welcome them to the forum???

 

[Barry98]

do you need a guide for that unguided1 ? if so ill volunteer and make all the necessary sacrifices

 

[unguided1]

Lol bugger off Bod I asked first!!!!
Looking at some of the answers I give on this forum I am more than happy to go blundering in with out training or being registered with any professional associations, unguided by name unguided by nature!!!!!!

just had a thought May be the Administrators could organise some sort of trade show, paid for by the sponsors, who could show their latest kit and all us members could meet each other, If so I will be found flat on me back at the Guinness stand

That's a good idea. I used to chat on a different bulletin board (stock market stuff) and there were various meetings throughout the country during the year (about one annually in each area) and a Christmas do in London. My "local" one was for West Midlands and we used to go to a Chinese restaurant in Stratford.

Not sure how well it would work with this forum though as the forum I used to be on had at least 1,000 regular subscribers and one of the objects of meeting up was to talk to each other about different ways of trading and stuff like that. In the plumbing world we tend to do this at the local merchants instead.

Perhaps we could do an hour's chat/mini seminar on a topic, e.g. electrics and central heating or (the dreaded) MCS stuff and how to get going in renewables or a soldering competition as per that plumbing apprentice programme?

I like the idea of all the above more so if its at a curry house, as for a soldering competition I would bring me *** lighter to that
