  Thanks but we have decided.
  
  We have been using DPS for almost two years, will need some time getting used to our new name.

  Artists use pencils.
  Kindergarten kids use pencils.
  Musicians use pencils.
  
  edit: But I didn't contribute anything so I actually don't have a right to make noise.

  Because we love pencils and Mad Pens Club or Mad Keyboard Club sound weird. Beside, the good old pencils bring back fond memories.
  
  To be frank my first choice was Just Write! Poetry. But we need something original.

  It is okay I know what you mean but after some discussions we’ve decided not to use words like “Poetry”, “Poets” or “Poems” in our new name.
  
  We want this to be a fun place for everyone and hopefully to fall in love with poetry.
