During the meeting, it came about that us Gold's are Scum (hence the SG acronym). Us SG's then decided that Platinums were Wankers (hence the WP acronym).

We then set about finding something to call the Silvers and Bronzes, namely Plebian Silver (PS) and Nuthin Bronze (NB).

These abbreviations have become quite legendary on that other board. It adds to the quirky nature of the QF forum.
