I Hate Sundays


It seems (more and more latley) that all the HO's come out and attempt to pass off as contractors. It's making this site go down the tubes.

Then you didn't notice the several threads that only lasted a couple minutes on the board today. Just hit the button, and the thread will magically be rendered impotent in short order.

Re: I Hate Sundays


I have a purple Vikings tape, was wearing it on a job in Wisconsin when I realized the building inspector was probably a Packers fan.

After filling a spackel bucket with your lunch, use whatever tape measure you have around...should be a good match to the carhartts - if not, use the carharrts too

Re: I Hate Sundays


Do as MD suggested. Actually, most of you do not even realize haw often HO's post on here, since someone reports it promptly, and one of the moderators remove it or close it down with the DIY Forum script.

Most times, unless it is among the first few posts in the NEW POSTS section, someone has already attended to it.

So, I remind everyone to help out this site and allow us to better do our jobs, by religiously using the Report Post icon.

As far as this site going down the tubes, Hah! There are over 20,000 registered members on this forum and it is the cleanest site I visit and participate in anywhere I lurk or participate in.

Thank You,

Ed

Thanks for the re-enforcement.
Sometimes I feel like the police.
I'll wait for someone else to snitch.
