Thank you, it's still attached and it won't start hurting again until around 11pm when the digital block wears off. I was lucky no nerve damage to it but it will leave an ugly scar.

Really, I think the little finger is there just to run interference for the other fingers...

I only just joined so really it is a tad cheeky of me to post here but I'm gonna, like the attention addict I am...

The reason I joined this site was, if I'm honest, to use as a means of meeting people. However, in the 5 or 6 days I've been here I can quite honesty say if it were not for the forums, I'd have probably left.

P.S. You guys are awesome

They are, which is why I came back after my first time around... even though there is a new circle of people here, still they are good ones.

My list grows longer with the more time I spend here as to people that I like, appreciate, or just plain respect.

Here is a HYPOTHETICAL*cough-cough* message: I got the other day.

- You have caught my attention little one... I ask that you read through my profile and send me back a message. Be a good girl and do as you are told.

I laughed so hard I started hiccuping.

You can just imagine my message back to this HYPOTHETICAL person.

Wow, where to start. I think I'll try to keep Mine short and sweet...well, short.

I get tons "Dear Mistress, Goddess of the universe and quasars. Please let me worship you" and "Get a job prostitute"; but my favorite has to be "I'm into fin Dommes but I don't have any money. I can torture myself for you on cam by having sex with My hand". Idiots.

But occasionally for entertainment, I read the journals, and they never cease to entertain. They page after page of "I can't find anyone" (but they have been here for two whole days), or "If you don't have a pic I will not read" (but their only pic is of a wolf on fire or some dumb shit like that).

The other side is retarded.

From females, I get the usual "I wanna be owned Mistress", or "I wish I was the slave in your pics". I politely answer each one, but if i am interested I will talk back and fourth. Then usually they want to cyber, I say no, they disappear.

That's My experience. :)

I have very little in my profile and the mail I usually get over there is something like "Hi." and that's it...they never say much at all. I just delete and forget about it.

When I was single that's pretty much all my emails ever said either. I would get a few rude ones but even those were not that plentiful.

I can't really say I let anything anywhere online bother me. It's just pixels on a screen.

I've been here since 2005. This is my second profile. The other side is full of amusement, hilarity and sideways confused puppy look inducing entertainment for me. In the years I've been here, I've not seen much change outside of the few implemented changes with pics, etc. over there. Still the usual bs as when I joined. As to whether there's more than there used to be, maybe so, but only because there are more profiles. I found and got involved with local groups via the other side shortly after i originally joined the site, so i remain thankful for that. I've met a few from here and call most friend. I stay simply for the boards and the entertainment they provide and the sometimes very interesting to me discussions sparked.

My biggest problem with The Other Side is that it seems like everyfreakingbody talks about their D/s desires and nothing else. If I can't watch silly TV or go out museuming (and more to the point, if I don't think we'd be compatible watching silly TV or going out museuming), there's no blippin' point.

I know this is a kink site, but I'm so tired of men asking me personal, intimate, questions as a greeting that I could just scream. That's all they want to know about - evidently it is the only subject in the universe that can be used for conversation.

my experience has been that most people who join this site see it as a place to get a quick lay because ya know, bdsm people are without morals and are just all here looking for sex with anyone and anything. Don't you all know we're with loose morals?

I've been here in the past under a different username, and now for a few months with this one. I've met some quality people, but I've also met some.. let's say.. sub par people as well. Those who I don't want to associate with.. I don't.

I would say that the other side is full of a lot of confused, needy, brainless twits, but that's to be expected. I expected it when I first signed up, and I expect it now. I just laugh at the demanding.. "on your knees now" emails and move on.

It seems to me that there are the same amount of "wacko's" as 5 years ago, but that's only my perception.

When I was searching, my mailbox was full of crap from the desperate, married and/or clueless. Mostly I ignored, unless I was feeling a (rare) pang of empathy and decided to let them down gently. THAT never ended well!

Now I'm owned and my profile makes that abundantly clear, I occasionally get the 'get off the dating site' messages, or those that tell me I'm 'not a sub' because my profile makes demands

But only last week I got a message from a local guy, new to the site. He was too old for me by several years, but that didn't deter him. He asked about my fetishes, I told him Master didn't let me discuss them with strangers. He asked to meet for coffee, and I said I could only go if Master was with me. He told me to lie to Master and go anyway. That didn't end well either...for him!

Now mostly I get messages from nice people who want to chat about bunnies or some of the mindless yammering I post on the messageboards. That is mail that I appreciate!

(just to add)

yep, they seem also to believe that the subs on here are only here cause they surely don't get anyone else, so they have to be desperate, too

Thoughts? What are you getting when you venture over there? What do you see? Has the site changed much over the years - (in people quality that is.)
WHATS UP PEOPLE? whats goin' onnnnnn?

I dont know. I am not really looking right now and havent been for a while now. And for some time I have had my age listed as 90 so since most guys are looking for someone younger than that, they miss me.. that and i dont have any pics up so i dont get many of those typical DimDom messages. I usually get messages from forum posters mostly..

So I guess my thought is that there is no problem on the other side...

I have been on the site for years as well. The other side used to be far better; I actually went on a ton of dates, some were good, some were cool but not my type, one or two were sizzling experiences, but no one that I wanted to be with for the long term. I got a ton of emails from crazies, delusionals, dummies and the standard nonsense that other women get.

These days, I find far more nutty profiles and far less serious minded men who actually want to meet. I would say there are about 90% less men who actually want to meet someone in real life than before. Now, I get idiotic emails that I have to delete and very few real men who live near enough to meet.

If they are nearby in NY or NJ, they are unable to communicate and they all say, hey, hit me up on Yahoo IM, no matter what their age is. I don't do that, so it falls flat. One thing that annoys me is the same men write every few weeks or months, as if I not going to remember them or note their prior email under the current email. Duh.

I also get a lot of guys who say, You have been here so long, why are you not taken, it is shocking. I say, it is beause there is a lack of quality men for me and has nothing to do with me.

Also, men say they have viewed me and viewed me for years but are afraid to write. Why? I don't get it.

I also find I get alot of email from younger men than my age group.

I basically give up on the other side, I will keep my single profile open just in case, but I really am only here now for the forums, which I still enjoy.

I've experienced just about everything the other posters mentioned. For some reason, I get a lot of "I've read your profile and can tell you need a strong man to train you" messages. For a while I would politely reply that I wasn't interested or "no thanks".

The response was always some version of "you are a submissive woman who should be with a dominant man, why are you rejecting a dom who is interested in owning you?" Gack

On the bright side - I've been talking for months with a guy I met on the other side. No pressure to talk about fetishes, fantasies or sex. We just talk about what's going on, our lives, etc. He waited patiently for when I was ready to get together. We're meeting on Sunday and I have a good feeling about him. :)

I have to say I rarely ever get mail on here anymore. About the only mail I get these days is from people on this side when they want to ask me something or talk about something I posted or when Master is bored and will play around with my profile and email nutjobs lol. I hate when he does that. Then I'm left with weirdos messaging me and I have to check to see what he wrote to them lol.

I've only gotten one spam message ever from the other side.

Just my luck (gender?), people are cordial to me, and I to them. I like to be friendly.

In fact, it was on the other side where my girl first approached me, and we talked about poetry.

The rest just fell into place naturally.

Sorry, I can't be negative here because I don't have the experience to back it up.

I know. It irritates me when I've told someone that I'm happily married and they start asking about the intimate details of our sex lives. (I bet you get LOTS of spankings...<pant,pant,pant>) What in the world makes a stranger think I'm going to discuss the details of what happens between Master and I with a complete stranger?
