    Forum Advertisements and Site Supporters - Update 16th Sept

    Some people may notice that there are new types of adverts running. And this message is also for the site supporters who usually see no adverts at all. For the next week and a half at least, all will see all advertisements while we configure them and setup their permissions so they can be...

    TilersForums.com Update for 2021

    Welcome to the new style TilersForums.com. Newish anyway. I've spent a while upgrading ElectriciansForums.net, then PlumbersForums.net, then to come over to TilersForums.com and do the same thing here. We're rocking the same awesome forum software but it comes with lots of minor changes...

    Forum Update Complete - Hope you like it. :)

    The main parts of the forum upgrade are complete and have gone well. We will be tweaking for weeks now but you're all okay to post and whatnot. The JOTM software we used wasn't portable. So we're looking for something else to replace it. In the meantime we're considering setting it up as it used...

    Update: Top Contributor Tag Settings Change

    It was set at 150 posts in 25 days. That's cool and fine. But I saw the tag a lot. So I'm trying out 150 posts in 15 days. Will probably end up with something in between long term. Still trying to find the Goldie locks zone. Nothing personal if you lose it or gain it guys this is forum-wide.

    Update: Top Contributor Usertag Added

    Thought this'd be handy. We have a load of TF Arms members, and a handful of Trusted Advisors. Then the sponsors, and member support guys, but they're usually one or the other. And there isn't a tag all can share equally. Even if a regular member. So I've created a tag that manages its self...

    Update: Thousands of member accounts erased - whaaaaat?!?!

    I've just erased all members that have not logged in at all since mid 2015, no matter what their post count. And I've erased all users that have zero posts and not logged in since about a year ago. So the system is just calculating the figures and doing some clearing up before I can give you a...

    Update: more helpful tag pages

    www.tilersforums.com/tags Click on a tag and you'll see it has a bit of a Wiki (info page) there along with the list of threads tagged with that word or phrase. You'll have to excuse the automatically generated phrases for a lot of them. It pulls the phrases from Wikipedia and is a bit generic...

    Update: Mark the best reply in threads as the best answer to the original question

    I've added a feature to the forum that should come in handy. When a person posts a thread to the forum, we often get many answers as replies, and for others viewing the thread in the future it can get confusing as to which one was the best answer or the one that helped them the most. The...

So now, if I've done it correctly, you will all have just the one banner near your name, and it'll be...
