    Sadly recent events have forced the mods to site ban rooferpete and he is sadly missed already by those of us who have received professional building advice from him through pm's and by reading his advice on public threads. For those of you not familiar with rooferpete he was a regular poster on the DIY forum and was the man a lot of us relied on for top class advice. A lot of fuss has kicked off since his ban with many people angry that he has been banned and want him back.

    There are enough threads active at the moment dealing with whether he should be allowed to come back or not but in this thread I simply want an answer to the question....

    Is roofer Pete a legend of the boards?

    Please no debating the site ban here, simply vote to make Pete a legend.

    yes, helped me several times. Nice to know when you going through a nightmare of a self build, that you can ask someone questions and get answers in a non judgemental way. Thanks Pete

    You need a poll.If you had a poll, I'd vote "Yes."

    Wheres the "pete was a **** poster, and most certainly not a legend" option?

    We need options!

    Dear God almighty, stop......WAS THERE LIFE BEFORE ROOFERPETE?!?!
    Do you all go to sleep at night with a picture of him under your pillows???!!!?

    Can we ban people who keep banging on about it? You would swear he was the guy standing in front of the tank in.....that place I can't spell. Shaped like a square it was....

    That option doesn't apply to Pete. He was either "great" or a "legend".

    Who the f*ck is rooferpete?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,937 ✭✭✭fade2black


    You people need to get a life. RooferPete me bollox. If you were banned do you think "Roofer Pete" would give two shits? He's about as legendary as Shayne Ward is. So is he legendary?

    Also, Clown Bag, if you're gay and are worried that not enough people know, then you're going the right way to remedying that.

    Rooferpete was the resident building expert in the DIY forum who helped out all us amateurs until he got banned recently. :(

    He is not a legend for the simple fact that he has a stupid name!

    it's true, it's true,

    This is a big mis-understanding, legal action is roofing terminology!
