forums

An Internet forum, or message board, is an online discussion site where people can hold conversations in the form of posted messages. They differ from chat rooms in that messages are often longer than one line of text, and are at least temporarily archived. Also, depending on the access level of a user or the forum set-up, a posted message might need to be approved by a moderator before it becomes publicly visible.
Forums have a specific set of jargon associated with them; for example, a single conversation is called a "thread", or topic.
A discussion forum is hierarchical or tree-like in structure; a forum can contain a number of subforums, each of which may have several topics. Within a forum's topic, each new discussion started is called a thread and can be replied to by as many people as they so wish.
Depending on the forum's settings, users can be anonymous or have to register with the forum and then subsequently log in to post messages. On most forums, users do not have to log in to read existing messages.

    how to lay out tiles in wetroom form

    Hi, I'm tiling the floor of a wetroom and would like some advice on the best way to lay the tile. I plan to use 300mm x 600mm tiles, and there is a 800x1100 wet room form installed with a 300mm linear drain. Because the wide of the form has been trimmed, it doesn't exactly match the tile...

    Thoughts on CTD prices & redundancies?

    Just wondered what people’s thoughts are on CTD sacking loads of people and going after retail rather than trade customers? I used to pay 20 plus vat for a 10kg grout, they now want 35+! It’s absolutely mental!

    Just purchased some app licenses for some forums

    We run Tapatalk on most of our forums, but on our sparky forum we run our own app as well as tapatalk. Seems to work out well, in fact, works out most of our regulars have phones that they can download apps for (mostly Android or iOS). So rather than paying for Tapatalk, I've found nearly all...

    Clearing out unused accounts from Tilers Forums

    I'm clearing up unused accounts on most of the forums. So if people haven't confirmed their new account within 30 days, I'm assuming they're not going to and they'll be erased. If people haven't logged into the forum for 300 days, and have no posts under their account, I'm assuming they don't...
