Where's puddle

[REDSAW]

leeds next week for me for a couple of days🙂

 

[diamondgas]

So no body knows? Just to keep this thread alive ... anyone reading this care?

 

[Dannypipe]

Yeah, I care. Hope he's ok.

 

[Dannypipe]

What was his last post?

 

[Guest123]

Everyone cares mate, that's why this post was started in the first place.

Unfortunately there's not a lot we can do unless anyone know him personally and is able to call round where he lives.

 

[dontknowitall]

Welcome post on 28th July.

No picture in his avatar, which is unusual.​

 

[Dannypipe]

That is weird.

Possibly he's had computer issues, or has gone on a holiday?

Does anyone on here know him personally?

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

tried emailing Tony twice,and Dan has but no reply,dont know why he has not been on

 

[Guest123]

This is such a close knit forum that everyone genuinely cares about its members welfare.

Has nobody got a telephone number for him, not even one from his website?

 

[desrob]

he felt betrayed................!

 

[Rickster123]

About what? And where's Simon johns?

 

[desrob]

he was put in a position were he could not please everyone and he developed a chip on ones shoulder regarding another forum member,the final nail in said coffin was when various threads were reinstated ,belittling puddle to his male core..thats my theory..

[Dannypipe]

[Guest123]

Spill the beans mate!

 

[Rickster123]

It's like women's institute in here tonight! ..... But come on spill the beans!

 

[desrob]

[Guest123]

Is this forum member a regular that he didn't get on with?

 

[desrob]

ask dan he reinstated them,and it's not just me were talking about here,mobbing up will prevent people coming forward,

 

[Guest123]

Well I hope he comes back and things get sorted out. Life is too short to bear grudges.

Interesting....

I made a nasty comment on this thread when I was in a bad mood one morning and Puddle (probably quite rightly) deleted it.
It was later approved by Dan

You seem pretty pleased with yourself.

I'm sure you vented your feelings about NUS. Which I also did when they emailed me. I sent them a pretty concise reply. Can't put it on here, as I would seriously get banned.

 

[REDSAW]

my pc crashed while making comment on this, in hindsight i have decided to put my comments another way....

puddle is a volunteer on this forum and spends a lot of time trying to improve and maintain the quality of its content and helps making it what it is today, a great place to be for plumbers all over the uk to learn have a banter and chill out.

volunteer is the key word here, not the gaffer at work where you wait like vultures for them to cok up and have your fill, it means you do it for dedication not money and therefore should not be belittled or criticized for making a wrong decision at times (if this is the case) as the praise for making the right decisions is few and far between especially from forum members.

would you like to expand on your last 'glory post' a little desrob as i seem to be getting the wrong end of the stick i believe?.

Guys,

Looking at the post numbers I am very much the newbie here, may I suggest that those who believe they have information use PM and maybe let REDSAW DAN or whoever puts their name forward to help sort this out?

If there has been a misunderstanding I reckon the sooner it's sorted the better for everyone involved, Puddle may be taking a break and that's fine if he is, nothing worse than putting a lot of time and work (even if its fun) into something not being appreciated.

Just my thoughts very early in the AM.

 

[Mike Jackson]

It's entirely possible that Puddles absence has nothing to do with the forum. When I first signed up the forum wasn't that busy and as it got busier I was signed up as a mod. After a while I stopped visiting the forum, nothing to do with the forum but I was having such a bad time at work that I didn't want anything to do with plumbing when I got home at night.

 

[Dave]

Can I just say, if it is to do with approving threads/posts etc , then I ain't got a clue but I will say that in the mod control panel it is easy to approve threads etc when moderating and not actually realise another mod unapproved it.
Unless the post was reported why it was unapproved.
I will ask the question if that helps.

 

[Barry98]

it means you do it for dedication not money .

you mean my cheque isnt in the post ?

 

[REDSAW]

you mean my cheque isnt in the post ?

your check is made payable on the millionth member bod, not long now.. keep your head down..know what i mean, know what i mean..lol.

 

[diamondgas]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! Mod asking Mod to keep head down? am I reading to much into that :lol: Is big brother watching? As you say though REDSAW we all come here voluntarily. And may I add, will only be missed for a short while by most 🙂

 

[desrob]

You seem pretty pleased with yourself.

why...?
