I used to contribute on the other forum and used to wind Kev up all the time but it was part of the banter.
I still go on and look but less contribution as it seems to be a kiss *** forum if you dont disagree you are ok they tried to make it is a forum for all tilers but it is a lets brag about PITT and lets ram PITT as the best trainers in the world. If they backed of and let it run as a forum should be open to discussion not dictatorship then both forums could work.

My main problem is that they have guys coming of courses trying to tell guys how to tile. Half of them have never used the gear I have used I used to reply and advise but it pi***s me of that I just sit back and laugh at some of the responses. And if you aint PITT trained you know nothing my arse.

Seems they ahve a new guy on there that had the balls to review them as a brilliant website blah blah blah. Think he was on this website dont know if he still posts but he puts his picture on profile and I aint a violent man but he has a face that you would never tire of hitting with a dead fish. He has chnaged picture to kid on the other forum.

Rant over think I will be banned lol.

Had to laugh but one posting on other site was posted here as well about cement blocks tiling onto. Other site i would board blah blah blah cannot be done blah blah and we all know it can be tiled on as long as preped. End of day seems to me thye have moderators that are PITT trained and think they know everything.

OK Rant over this time.

And Kev welcome mate hope to chat to you on tiler chat and tell the buggers nothing.

the post about concrete blocks was mine. just like to see there responses. the mods on the other forum are all like little hitlers. the power goes to there heads. you dare to disagree you get banned, which surely defeats the object of a forum. plus if you dont tank every job you do you seem to be classed as a cowboy.

I would tell them to join up here.

After all, their forums like a dead dinosaur now, just look on their general tiling forum, and the posts date over 4 or 5 days on just the first page.

Made me laugh when I read the Forum heading for the Mapie forum...

"Mapei Forums
Mapei UK are a worldwide manufacturer of tile adhesives, grouts, and ancillary products. Mapei UK have kindly sponsored the UK's leading Tile Forums to provide support and technical input for the professional tile fixer.

I suppose they might have been the UK's leading tilers forum when that was typed, but now the only thing I can think of that they lead in is the length of time they have been active.
This is the perfect example of what can happen to a forum that is ran like a concentration camp, it dies off in the end, or never really gets started, where as this forum just gets busier and busier with propper moderation with good mods.... hell, I've been modded a couple of time myself :lol:

All in all, answer peoples questions through PM's if that's what you want, otherwise, what I'd do is tell them about this place and say this is where you will be from now on, and if they decide to have a look over our way, there's honestly nothing for them go go back too again, unless they only want biased opinions about training courses and like pinky\red colours.
