Just a small suggestion....

Use proper grammer and punctuation. That helps grab attention in my book, since so many seem to let it fly out the window when online.

Best of luck to you.

Welcome to the boards.. Now, my problem with personally helping you write a profile is that I've no ones word but your own that you are for real. I suspect many may have the same problem. What I can give you is some general advice.

Be honest about what you seek.

Tell how many years of experience you have, and how many times a week you played in those years. (Someone can have 20 years experience with only having played twice a year. As someone pointed out in another thread, three years experience playing daily tops 20 years playing twice a year.)

Touch upon or list your main fetishes. It is best not to make a dissertation of this one. You should mention if you have special training in any one area or are very oriented to one type of play. (Personally, I'm nuts for CBT. Any sub who ever served me had to be able to deal with that.. no exceptions.)

Write down your expectations of your submissive. Do you expect them to clean your house? Is sexual service required? Do you expect them to kneel naked in a cage for 10 hours a day?

Tell what you offer a submissive.

Be honest about your relationship goals. If you seek a "playbuddy" type of situation, be up front about it. Tell how often you'd like to play. If your long term goal is to find someone to marry, also be upfront.

If you're seeking more than a casual relationship, talk briefly about your vanilla likes and hobbies.

Now, after you have it written down, re-read it and revise it as needed. It took me a year of re-writes to get my profile to the point I was happy with it when I was seeking. Put it up and keep coming back to look at it. Alterations will suggest them self to you over time. Big Big Big point.. make sure to use proper spelling and grammar.

Good Luck

I'm sure if you write your thoughts out and you would ask the service of someone to spell & grammar check, someone here would be glad to help. I would except that seing as though English is my second language, I'm sure other people are more suited then me for this task :)

I do that for my Master ALL the time! I'm always happy to help someone with the grammar and spelling in their profile.

Well, I see that MidnightMaster33's profile is now up. I will try again, since he didn't seem to take the hint in our emails:

MidnightMaster33, I'm glad you are happy with your profile (that I edited and made comprehensible for you). You are very welcome!

Geezuz effing KeeREIST! No, you obviously did NOT "get the hints"! I've given up dropping them and have chalked this up to one more reason not to do something nice for someone I don't even know.

Besides learing how to spell and write your native language so that you don't look like a total ignoramus, you should learn some manners too.

For the very last time, you're welcome.
