Difficult? I do not see the logic in your statement. Let us say for the sake of arguement he is successful and is able to convice the college crowd to look into this board, it is not like they are going to announce that the OP brought them and even if they did, so what? He is not responsible for their actions once they get here

You should all be ashamed of yourselves. And if images are verboten here, disable the functionality. Shit. You said it was a "crazy idea." Now that we agree with you and explained why we agree it's a "crazy idea," you get all upset. You were not attacked. People pointed out the flaws of your "crazy idea" is all that has happened here.

It's going to be difficult for him because he'll be an outcast on campus and people will continually ridicule him and most likely will cause him problems in gaining educational references from professors and such in the employment world. I'll be honest...most younger people I know see bdsm as being lame, cheesy and geeky, something old people are into.

quote: ORIGINAL: DesFIP I would suggest you get approval from the site owners and from your university first, before you find yourself in hot water. Fronm the university definitely, as to the board owners, unless there is something in TOS, they have no right to voice an opinion. all they concern themselves with for the most part is the ability to generate income and law of averages state if their are more people, the chances are, so will push on those revenue generating links

You should all be ashamed of yourselves. Try not to let it bother you so much. Yeah, some people were awfully blunt, I'll sure give you that. It gets like that sometimes; I don't know why. But don't let it get to you. You had an original and very well-intended idea, did some good work putting it together. I, for one, thought you did a terrific job with it, for whatever that may or may not be worth. Why not take that away from the thread, and leave the scorn behind where it can't gnaw at you.

Just post it where the female students can see it. Most of them are cute. [:)]

fluffypet61 -> RE: Promoting Collarme.com (10/17/2009 8:28:18 PM)
Most Universities require that items posted on campus be officially approved by the University, to be stamped with the approval, and to have a date to be removed on it. i doubt that you could get the necessary approval. Starting a munch would be a better way to increase interest in the lifestyle.

quote: ORIGINAL: VampiresLair Advertising in a bdsm club might be one thing, but the shitstorm of lookieloos and fake gameplayers that would bring in just on a campus isnt really good for anyone... the site or anything else. Are you that interested in outting yourself and anyone else in your area, if someone pops on to see what its about and then sees someone they know? Are you implying that all college or even the majority of them are simply lookieloos and fake gameplayers ? I am afraid some people as well as the NG group might find your opinion slanderous and without merit, after all, college students are by legal definiition adults and should be treated as such. I did not see the ad, but advertising the board does not mean he would be outing himself or anyone else. if people are concerned about being outted they should not place either graphic or written content that would divulge their idenity

Nobody ever disagrees with you. Flatterer! While I know that you are very sweet in saying that, I can promise you that it is not the case. Some of My less popular opinions revolve around quite a few subjects: The pronoun capitalization debate. (The caps for Me, Mine, etc.) My personal definition for Master/Mistress. (Meaning My opinion on having a slave before self proclaiming the title.) Might as well throw in that I have different definitions for bottom, sub, and slave, too. Darn near any debate revolving around those topics regarding the leather community. Then, there's always that inexperienced tops need to get more experience than what they should gain on the net. Speaking of the net, let's not get into the online vrs real time debate. How about the fact that I don't believe in infidelity, and I'm poly to boot? That's just the tip of the iceberg. People disagree with Me rather regularly. In the long run, I figure that's ok because it's rare for Me to find anyone who disagrees with Me on everything. There's almost always some kind of common ground, even if it takes a while to find it. Hope you're doing well and that we get to see you again soon.

quote: ORIGINAL: LadyPact I'm still trying to figure out how advertising the site and more people signing up is "good" for everyone. Ultimately it depends on the quality of the individuals that access this board, it gives people an opprtunity for meet and possibly develop relationships with the new people. It ehances the boards ablility to obtain more revenue, which helps all most everyone. The only person it would not help is the individual who is in a commited relationship and who would be ok with paying for the use of this site

sunshinemiss -> RE: Promoting Collarme.com (10/17/2009 8:44:28 PM)
To the OP: When people are interested in something, they expend time, energy, and money in that thing. That's a way to know that something is valued. There are people from all over the world on this site, people who don't even speak English, and somehow they have found it. I do believe that the youthful crowd (if my university going niece and her friends are an indicator) could find this if they wanted it. Frankly, they are pretty well versed in what's what considering they've been brought up on reality television and such. paz y amor, sunshine

I wouldn't mind paying a small monthly charge for the site. I've always seen it more as a discussion forum than a dating site anyway.

We're trying to prevent you from having a lawsuit for unauthorized use of the site logo and you have the stupidity to be upset about that? We're trying to prevent you from possibly violating your university's conduct code and getting kicked out and you have the stupidicy to be upset about that? Can you pay a lawyer when you get sued? Will your parents object when you have to move back home, degreeless because you were expelled? Go get permission, idiot! If anyone grants it to you.

subtlebutterfly -> RE: Promoting Collarme.com (10/18/2009 5:57:10 AM)
The OP's naive reactions to the feedback he got speaks volumes. I wonder if the OP will throw a temper tantrum when the university removes the leaflets or when he gets sued for the violation of trademark law or even copyrighted content. You, OP, are 28 years old, try to act like it.
