First of all Urantiam, you are not a moderator, so you have no right to tell her what she can and cannot post on any thread on any forum, regardless of whether or not you were the OP. Secondly, she hit the nail on the head when she said that she ALREADY DID tell you what she thought. We all told you what we thought, and you didn't give a rat's ass anyway, so why should anyone bother repeating themselves? And Reflectivesoul brings up a valid point. (Although I wouldn't expect you to even come close to understanding since your value system is relatively opposite to most people here.) You fit ever so neatly into the portrait of what this lifestyle does NOT stand for, that your presence is merely tolerated, not enjoyed. A lot of people put a lot of hard work into trying to get BDSM at large to a point where safety is valued. A lot of people invest their time, energy, money, and skills into teaching safety techniques, setting up safety networks, being people's safe-calls, educating newcomers about safety, and holding seminars and workshops on safety. Then people like you and your lady come along and do things with total disregard to safety, and set everyone back 10 paces in trying to portray this as a lifestyle comprised of cognitive adults who adhere to principles of safety and emotional well-being. Even those regarded at first glance as unsafe, such as no-limit slaves, can cognitively sit down as rational adults and explain how they look after their well-being by choosing Masters whose morals are in conjunction with their own. People who do edge-play are constantly looking for safer ways of doing it. People who weild whips often recall certain safety techniques their teachers instilled in them. Needle-players use sterilized needles. Masters who view their slaves as property still make sure those slaves are tended to, heathly, and happy in their stations. You and your lady defy one of the basic principles of this lifestyle, and furthermore, you're doing it in a way that screams that you want attention for doing so. What do you really expect to gain from us at this point? If you don't give a shit about our advice here, why do you give a shit about someone posting a little face icon? Go about your merry way already. You've burnt most any bridge here that would be helpful to you in your journey. Go enjoy your life with your bedroom submissive, cyber-love-Domme, telephone sex operator, non-Dominant Mistress and the rest of us will be perfectly content to sit here and post little faces on any thread we wish. With that being said ....
