1. Regular posters get away with isolated short quotes from anonymous people's profile's or journals all the the time. But when a new poster does it we bash her to bits? Yes, in this age of the Almighty Google, it would have been wiser to paraphrase, but sheesh, she's a new poster, give her a break for not knowing all the fine points of forum ettiquite.
Bash her to bits? Hardly. I was merely pointing out that "carrying the torch" for someone who has not asked you to do so is a bit rude, as is using someone's words to justify lecturing a whole group of people for the behaviour of a few.

I've seen this guy's profile btw. The quoted piece that started this thread hurt him because it didn't provide one essential fact: He does make it perfectly clear in his journal that he's not approaching any woman who has an upper age restriction clearly stated in her profile. He has the right to approach whomever he wants as a partner, of course, as do we all, and he's being nicer than many of the "morans" who ignore clearly stated preferences.
The guy can approach whomever he wants. That said, I'm chubby. Were I to message a bunch of hot Doms with perfect bodies, I would certainly expect that some of them would make rude remarks about my weight. Age is no different, and there are rude, inconsiderate people everywhere.

PS: What part of
"Part of:
COLLARME.COM
do you not understand? ;)
I understand it perfectly, thanks for asking. My point was that collarchat and collarme do not have the same membership. Not everyone with a profile utilizes the message boards (relatively few, in fact), and not everyone on the boards has an active profile. Coming to this side and complaining about people's behaviour on that side, while it happens often, usually misses the "target audience" because the offenders are not here. The OP stated that hurt was inflicted by "some younger people on this website", so I merely pointed out that collarchat and collarme are not the same, sheesh.

(it's just in a big black box in the upper left corner of every message board screen except the "Reply to Message" window.)
I believe that visible little black box was put there precisely to let people know that, despite the differing URL, the forums are actually a part of Collarme. I also think the fact that "Mesage Boards" is the second entry on the personal ads page's main menu is suggesting something similar.
Sometimes software complications and business rules dictates the formality of establishing a new URL to house a part of a large website. Most websites I have been to that also use VB software for their forums use a different URL to house that messaging software--perhaps it makes it a lot easier to set up the forums if you do. Perhaps there aer (oopsie! I misspelled "are." I must be a moran, as opposed to someone who's not particularly anal retentive about writing?) sound buisness and legal reasons behind it as well. (If collarchat.com gets sued because of something one of the members irresponsibly posted, then possibly the entire personal-ad site doesn't also go down.) But to me, that annoucement in the upper-left "black box" is pretty definitive on the idea idea of "separate websites."
Was there a point to all that? I never said the sites aren't owned by the same person/ people, or that they are unrelated.
