I live by the protocol but that is me.

You live by protocol that some people use in chat rooms? How do you decide whether to capitalize someones name or not in a business setting?

You must be a lot of fun in the office. If the two hundred or so emails I get a day all included W/we and Y/you I think I'd hang myself with the computer cord.

Nonetheless, sounds like a funny experience in a chat room. What did they want the switches to do with caps?

When I used to chat on IRC switches were allowed to switch rolls by capping their name when Dominant and lowercasing it when submissive. Some had a lot of fun with that.

The internet has ruined some aspects of the lifestyle such as following protocol. If you don't like following protocol then stay the fuck out of chatrooms that do an don't be surprised if you get booted because you will.

Not following protocol is disruptive to the chatroom. Being disrespectful to the Doms/Dommes even if they aren't YOUR Dom/Domme is also a bootable offense and reflects on your Dom as someone who hasn't properly trained you.

When you disrespect a room by not following protocol then don't be surprised when you get booted and possibly banned.

CM monitors aren't watching the chatrooms. The persoon who created the room has full control overTHEIR room and set the rules. If you don't like the rules you're perfectly free to leave. it isn't cute or funny when someone comes into a room to see how much havoc they can create. How much disrespect they can get away with. ON IRC there was a kick/ban list for each room and that's where disrespectful people ended up. iIf you're on the list you'll never get in the room.

While I'm all for people being able to do whatever they want in their little slices of the world/internet, I have to say I completely disagree with this statement. What if I've trained my sub NOT to offer excessive respect (or any unearned respect) to anyone, regardless of whether they'd rather hold the whip or be whipped?

In that case, they're perfectly trained. Just not how you would like them to be trained... which matters little to me. Just like my opinion will certainly matter little to you.

More than anything this makes me glad I started doing this stuff before the internet got hold and little generals decided they had to rule somewhere.
No chat rooms for me, at least not in that atmosphere.

Whatever the case, the room did not state the "rules" about capitalising my name and I'm not a mind reader!!!!!!!!!!

And MrrPete, I am always respectful in my life as is my partner, hell I even went to deportment school (seriously I did omg lol). But when some domme (ok wannabee domme) boots me out or someone did (yes a message did come on saying I had been rejected out or something) and I was enjoying the fun of the room, well that is a wee bit ridiculous dont you think? Geez I didn't even get a chance to talk back (and I'm soooo good at that normally)....

Someone else said to not get serious about it. I'm not at all, just thought it was a funny thing to post and for people to respond to and have a chat about. I've thorougly thoroughly enjoyed the responses, has made me smile and giggle and my master has enjoyed it too - what a hoot! Thanks to everyone!!!!!!!!!!

ON IRC there was a kick/ban list for each room and that's where disrespectful people ended up. iIf you're on the list you'll never get in the room.

I was about to agree with one of the things you said MrrPete, then I read it again.

The Internet (the "I" should be capped. Try it in Word using your spell check.) didn't ruin some aspects of the lifestyle. Some people who use the Internet ruined some aspects of the lifestyle by somehow convincing nearly an entire generation of people that the Internet created BDSM, thus the "protocol" found on the Internet must be followed lest ye be banished from the Realm.

SmokingGun82 nailed it. If I've taught my submissive not to go overboard with the sir and ma'am stuff (as long as she always says please and thank you) and she obeys me, you might not like it, you may even think me a lowly barbarian, but I will sleep quite well at night.

Why? Because I know for fact, that you if happened to be at the same functions that she and I attend and you dared tell a dungeon master or dungeon mistress that she refused to address you as sir, said dungeon master or dungeon mistress would most likely ask you if there was a serious rules violation that they could assist you with, before returning to monitoring the dungeon.

The difference between this scenario and what goes on in some chatrooms is the fact that you wouldn't be grabbed by the collar and booted out onto the street for daring to bring online "protocol" into their dungeon. Because in the real world, we tend to treat people with a bit more civility.

But - as Mama Gump always said: Welcome to the Internet. Where you can be as big a jackass as you like, without fear of getting your ass kicked by a guy in drag.

I figure their loss, if I go into a chat room it is to communicate, share idea and have some fun, not to deal with anal retentive individuals or uber types who beleives their shit smells rosier than everyone else and insists the world knows it I deal with these types in my work environment I don't want to deal with these rude obnoxious types living(not playing) in some fanatasy world in my private free time, so if I had that crap pulled on me when they have no consentual dominion over me I would be quite happy to leave or get booted out especially where they are the moderator .. I can either find another chat room were members can be respectful not rude and obnoxious or create one myself

This reply is not to any one person. But this is starting to look like a "Who gets respect and who doesn't" thread. It's just a game in MOST chat rooms to see who can dominate the most. Either it be all submissives and other dominant ones. The game goes on and on and will most likely continue in the chat rooms of on line cyber bdsm. It really all falls back on each person on how they respond to others. Either trained, or unowned, or any other way you want to look at who is doing the typing.

I know personally here on CM over the past few years, a few have gained my respect that are dominant ones. Out of the respect I have for them as a person, I cap their names. Not because of a title. As goes the same with the sub and slaves on here. It all depends on my mood and the conversation.

As for on here... or in a chat room..... the one who barks...and demmands of me right from the start....well that's why they invented the ignore buttons.... and when i'm done laughing.... I use it. And if booted from a chat room.... there are others to venture into they may be better than the previous.

Good luck in your search for a fun and comfortable place to hang out in.

Rasta Ozzy on Collarme
Decide fe check if there's a Domme for he
And when him read up de grammar of dem ting he read
He start to wonder if him smoke too much weed
Him hand 'pon him jaw Lord
Brethren did I not educate?
De grammar is so hard Lord
I might somehow a mistake do make
And make up de mind Lord
I might as well go and sign my fate
So Ozzy enter de chatroom
Before de others leave and it gets too late

chorus
When to C/cap
No I might not a find no Queen
Is it P/protocol
I new sub but me no seem so green
Is it We or we?
What I know de language dem change
Is it You or you?
And fe such as me a mek me strange
Is it Sub or sub?
What I know it so hard fe read
Is it friend or Friend
Wait one moment while I pull me pipe
O/our or W/we?
Hush your mouth fe Mistress Eleven hear
Tell I please what is de deal here

Well a Mistress who a think she cool
She fe question Ozzy how him so fool
What kind of subbie a have de cap
From she Domme she never did hear 'bout that
Well some Dommes and de Masters

Fe de humble no have cap in dem name
And den some others dem post
And say dem no have any of dat

If de protocol no mean diddly squat

chorus

When she tek de flogger an' lick him back
She give him a hiding
Mek pretty pattern all over his back

And it were de protocol which a caused all dat

chorus
