Lets take this a bit further.  Do the actions of these subs have any direct correlation as to how other subs are perceived and treated?

I am curious as to what anyone's thoughts are as far as integrity in a sub.  I am going to pose a couple of scenario's that has happened to me in the past and would like to know what others opinions are as far as if the sub was out of line or not. 

The sub in question, who will remain nameless, committed to me and came to me several times professing her devotion and loyalty.  After a very intense session, we left each other to which again she professed her desire and loyalty to me.  That was the last time I heard from this sub for several months.  Out of the blue she messaged me and started telling me that I was fake, and had no clue as to what being a Dom was. That she had moved to Michigan, found another Dom and was living with him.  In turn this new Dom contacts me and also makes the same statements, flaunting his conquest.  For days I endure a verbal barrage of profanities and factless accusations from someone that I had not even contacted in the first place.  This sub was cared for, provided for, loved and cherrished.  So there were no contributing factors for her leaving other than her own will. 

another scenario.  An online contact is made to a slave stating she is not human but a piece of meet and that she wants to be used. The request is simply asking for chat alone.  No other requests are made and proper etiquet and grammar are used.  The response to this request is not greated with a hello or any other introduction.  The only thing written in the response is "Send me a pic now" 

What are your reactions and thoughts to both of these scenarios.

More importantly, what are yours? Don't know about anyone else, but my feeling is i wouldn't follow anyone who needed to ask someone else where he was going.

Its time for me to comment. For those that think am insecure that is your first mistake for assuming.  For those that think this was posted as an attempt for me to vent again you assume. I enjoy healthy debate and seeing opinions good and yes bad.  As for the lack of information. Yes I do admit more details could have been put into the descriptions, but again this is not designed for those of you that enjoy nothing better then to jump to assumptions simply to criticize me.  It was intended to recieve comments on whether or not by simple online actions does this show a subs integrity or is it simply a silly online game that most enjoy playing.  When I was first brought into this lifestyle I was mentored by a Dom couple who instilled integrity and honor into me.  That has stayed with me ever since.  I could have used any of a million different scenarios here but chose to use some real life experiences.  Excuse me if they were not as detailed as anyone would enjoy so that you can examine under your online microscopes and determine what a fake Dom I may appear to be.  The fact is that in doing so, most of you have proven my point exactly. There is a lack of not only integrity but simple respect that goes on here online.  Yes everyone can claim respect is earned, but that is not all together true.  It is certainly earned but we also have the ability to show everyone respect until they prove that respect is not warranted.  It is called being polite and being an adult.  But we hide behind our computer screens and think this gives us license to judge, criticize, accuse and yes even be rude and mean.  

I do apologize if any feel like I am being pety or attacking your beliefs, but as everyone has shown we are all entitled to our opinions good and bad.  These are mine.  I did this to prove a point and I feel I have done so.  If this offends anyone again my apologies.

If you are trying to contact, screen, and meet people through Collarme, or any online venue, you need to have an order of magnitude more mental toughness than what you're displaying here. Whether you're male or female, it's a massive, grinding, mind numbing numbers game.

You might get lucky as hell and find someone real, and sane, and that is a good match for you on the first or second try, but wow, don't count on it, and don't start crying in your beer if it doesn't happen. If you can't approach it with a spirit of adventure and a willingness to learn something from every encounter, positive or negative, you might as well just throw in the towel right now.

Good luck.

This is why I advise against the giving away of personal info too quickly, since yes, many people who haunt these sites are in fact deranged or even violent.

to clear up any misconceptions for those of you that want to assume.  There is no validation needed here. If you cannot take this for what it is a simply forum then that is your mistake for assuming.  Also you should not assume more or less facts than what was presented.  Again if you do so you are assuming and using the old addage, you know what happens when you assume.  So for those that are commenting intelligently thank you. Those that are now being rude, my point proven!
