For a start you have to read this:

Proper punctuation, spelling and grammar helps aswell.

All the best,

I did not do a video either. You need to make good contributions (i Think!) to discussions.

Well, if you just stick around here and make good contributions, in about 3 months ish you will just get an invitation from a mod...

I would point out, as well, that it is not a 'secrets area' as such, just somewhere where you can be a little free-er with what you say, discussion the workings of commercial tricks etc is still not allowed.

Hmmm Goldfish...

Below is a direct quote taken from a post, made be yourself, in the "Spectator quotes" thread:

I love those sort of Transposition/Magical change effects, especially when they happen in the spectators hands. I think they can get some of the strongest reactions possible. It is very true that magic is strongest when it happens in the spectators hands. Something all close up workers should bare in mind


So why have you used capital letters for "Transposition" and "Magical"? Surely that should be "bear in mind" and not "BARE in mind" - unless you perform in the nude? And a full-stop after "mind" would probably be advised. :lol:

Thanks for that. I feel ever so special and not at all ridiculed now. I'll go change the other post so I'm not being a complete hypocrit. :oops:

I have always been told not to start a sentence with the word "and."

Please don't make me hurt you good people (see profile for details under occupation). I like the feeling of not submitting copy every time I press submit.

I dunno whachu gosta do. I have I think made a decent amount of contributions and I have been around for a bit more than 3 months. But I have only done 1 review. Although, as soon as I get my hands on Trance-This it will hit this board. So thatll be 2. :) Anyway, I haven't been too worried about getting into the secrets area. I figure it will happen when it does. And until then I will just secretly lament the mods. just kidding.
