"lol always makes me laugh that supper plumb he is by no means super and defo aint no plumber" "Supper Plumb ????? Isnt Supper a late night meal ?? Are you running a takeaway service on the side ?" "What is an Adim ?
Collage ???? is that when you cut out photos of plumbing tools and stick them on a page ?" all may seem like jokes but 3 intimidating comments from different people, can be intimidating and feel like bullying, not sticking up for him (haven't seen his posts, just stating the facts), If he feels he is being bullied (as he stated in post 12) admin will not do anything about it, man up or leave is the rules.

It is impossible to police and unless it is pointed directly at somebody it is hard to say they are intimidating or bullying, but a lot of comments on here can and are perceived differently then they are actually meant. I would never speak to any of my customers the way People speak to others on here. The arms is different, that is pub talk, not customer talk.

Hang on a minute lets not get carried away. Has supper made a complaint?? Not that I've seen.

In my opinion, just opening this thread is bullying, it is a direct assault on this chap. He has replied saying he is not a duplicate account and croppie has confirmed that he is not a duplicate account, so delete the thread and let him be.
If you read his posts you'll see that supper plumb can take as good as he gets and has actually been a good sport for the most part.

he's got more bounce back than zebidee, so if his next post raises a few eyebrows thats his choice. He has seen how it is on here and it seems he is genuine in his wish to become a good tradesman so if he takes advice he will fit in a treat, if he keeps posting horrendous pics he'll be getting a bit of a slagging, bit like being on a site really/

Posts could only be construed as bullying if they're a blatant attack for no reason, I.e.
Supper plumb, your penmanship is diabolical!
A post from someone more experienced telling you the right way to do things can't be considered bullying really. For instance, if 100% of the forum members contributing to a thread say you don't need a roll of PTFE on iso olives and threads, surely that's advice worth taking?
My advice to supper plumb, would be, don't teach your grandma how to suck eggs, tone down the arrogance, and defensiveness. But most of all take the advice, because whoever is teaching you isn't doing a very good job. His way isn't always going to be the right, or the best way.

Wrong. The thread has been started because some of the nonsense he's spouted is actually so hilarious, it's created genuine suspicion. It's self inflicted.

Can you still do that Keefy.. :book: Allegedly your honor the incident took place in a toilet, the accused a Mr.Pee.Keefy, then said " I took the lads particulars down " and it went downhill from there on in, I don't think even a plumber can thump someone, albeit after work in the pub, I rest my case your honor...

cmom your polish pretending to write english, or you havent set up your spell checker for english uk but romanian uk🙂
I think we would all lay off the poor chap, he's only learning and coming on here for advice and everyone seems to be shooting him down.
Sometimes people just need a nudge in the right direction and a helping hand along the way, surely this place is the perfect vessel for something like that.
Ive seen people get shot down on site as have many of you lot most probably and its not a nice site, especially when all that person needs is a bit of friendly advice.

Tom, its saying things like this that result in getting shot down. Cocky, Arrogant, Dangerously under skilled and seemingly unwilling to learn.

You've changed since turning green!
He needs to wind his neck in a little on that front agreed. But if he learns to be a bit more receptive to advice and humble then surely people can help him out.

Of course, the forum will always help people who wanna be helped.
Surely I don't have to explain each and every time I post whether or not I'm joking?

What does that even mean? And would it kill you to proof read your posts so they make some sort of sense?
