Too many letters. Obviously. Duh.

And PUMCH doesn't quite work as the acronym. Substitute a suitable "N" word...

Well - how about I withdraw my membership, and become a Stingy Move-Impaired Commercial Hotshot?

Although Paid Up Move-Impaired Commercial Hotshot pretty much covers all bases...

But all irregularities will be handled by the forces controlling each dimension.

The moderators then...

Why not change it to the same as workshops:
Beginner
Intermediate
and
Advanced
After all, they must have some meaning in the real world... yes?

But then, after 6 posts, you're an intermediate, and then after 12 more posts, you're advanced?

Not much scope for improvement there. So maybe it's a perfect scheme for a Ceroc forum

's OK; the majority of damage would be in Englandshire - maybe we would see the Scots in the forum a bit more

Also, beginner posters will only be allowed to use 4 of the following 12 phrases, in an order decided by the moderators at the start of the day:
  1. Hello! I'm new here...
  2. isn't dancing brilliant!
  3. Ooo, every so often my mind goes blank
  4. I wouldn't have got anywhere if it hadn't been for the taxis
  5. am I wearing the right shoes?
  6. there are some right weird people on this forum
  7. is anyone going to (local party night) this Saturday?
  8. what's Leroc?
  9. I just think (insert random local hotshot's name here) is such a brilliant dancer!
  10. what's the semicircle all about then?
  11. aaarghh! How can I quote someone else's post?
  12. what's a comb?
