I know this forum covers a vast area and I am in the South East based in Essex. Are there any members over this area that wander.

What is the collective noun for RIB users?????

I guess this is a big vague ask, given location etc.

Not sure about the collective noun, but the plural is “Ribnobburs”

The collective could be.....An Inflation or A Tube of Ribnobburs.

If Big Plumbs involved it would probably be an "argument of", but if your describing the majority of posters on here then I would suggest "A knowledge of Ribsters".
