For a group of people who don't wish to be judged, there are an awful lot of people on here who are very judgemental. being young and new to the lifestyle, I've gotten some very nasty comments from people who, it seems, think that insulting my involvement here somehow makes the lifestyle less credible. However, I met my domme because she was so angry about some of the nasty responses I'd gotten. silver lining.

If you don't want comments, I recommend you not use CollarMe as an editor programn. Windows comes with Wordpad. It does a wonderful job of recording your musings and it's relatively private.

Admittedly what the person whose words have been appropriately removed from your post was rude, but you were doing the equivalent of writing your personal thoughts on a sidewalk in chalk. Anyone was able to come along and comment.

Well that kinda makes the thread pointless now the mod has deleted the email... Is there a way with out contrevening TOS I can share the contents of the email ?

Why is it so important to you? You've said the message was insulting. I doubt very much there are many on CollarMe that haven't received such messages. If there are specific observations or threats you can rephrase them in your own language.

lol Wow, the audacity some people possess is...just wow...beyond words really.

Is this a complete stranger, as far as you know? Or someone who you 'know' to some degree? If it's a stranger, fuck 'em, what do they know, right? If it's a 'friend' or acquaintance of some kind...I can see how it could be hurtful to read that, but int he end, the same goes, fuck 'em!

If they're form this site, chances are they'll just feel mor einclined to do this to you if they get a reaction from you, so you're best off ignoring it or making just a brief comment on your journal site and be done with it.

Personally, I think showing someone they have no effect on you is better than any 'revenge' or 'retort' in the world. Asshole have one thing in common above all else: they cannot stand being unacknowleged, it just eats them up inside, and it shows in time...rather amusing to see actually, I highly recommend it lol

Hi there,

You may consider simply moving your journal/blog somwhere like blogspot or livejournal. There are many many people out there journaling about their experiences with sex/intimacy/bdsm/etc... and you're likely have your journal found, read and responded to by more sympathetic people. If you want help with this, feel free to send me a message.

Some of my favorites are either on hiatus right now or have been taken down. Here are a few recommended blogs for Doms and subs of all persuations - use as examples or just good reading. Enjoy!

Thanks guys, I have edited it to remove the senders name, however I think if you put something in writing you should be prepared to take ownership of those words - positive or otherwise. I dont really wish to remove my journal - I guess I need to get thicker skin.

Or only concern yourself with people who matter to your life......
Or wear kevlar undies.....

If Y/you're not ready for criticism that's constructive or otherwise then don't post a journal in a public venue...
Here just like in R/t there are assholes, not saying it's right but "Ya better get tough kid"

You will never be able to please all. Rest easy, afterall it is your journal. So long as it does not violate restrictions of the site, type away.

Best Wishes

Meh. I get alot of not nice e-mails, criticizing everything from my weight to my make up to my body art, to my way of relating to my Owner.

I deal with it by realizing that they're basically idiots, that my life isn't goverend by anyone by my Owner, and by posting the particularly funny ones in a livejournal devoted to the purpose (WITHOUT identifying marks, of course. I may not like what the person said, but there's no reason to out even their screen name)
