    If you had a tag for replying to advice, inc DIY, would you help out?

    So it appears the trusted advisor tag going missing has annoyed a lot of people. And no DIY or tiler is getting their threads replied to. If we had the tag but not the forum, which created the cliquey weird thing I got rid of and isn't good for any forum. Would some of you come back post here...

    DIY Forum for DIY Tilers?

    Should I create a DIY forum to direct people away from this forum who are doing DIY jobs? I could then make our three main forums (tilers, plumbers and electricians) all for professionals and trainees only. I think that's how most networks are doing it. So perhaps we do the same? Your thoughts?
