Sorry. No turkey and no chickens (birds are even filthier than pigs) but, since we seem to be stuck on "cutsie" animals ...

It's only missing one word at the beginning: submission.

Michael.. I have been blessed with cats that stick to the old box until it falls apart (and then they sulk when I get rid of the old, falling apart, thoroughly gnawed/clawed box...) until they decide to like a new one... which often takes several tries (I am not a cat. I do not pretend to grok what makes a box ACCEPTABLE).

Re the rise in snark. Of course there's more of it...but equally true, there's a whole lot more fakes, frauds and fishers posting on the boards nowadays than back then. In the old days (And I mean waaaay back days, when most of the fakes were still from the good ol USA, not Nigeria), the board was pretty tight, most of the frauds stayed on the other side.
As the honesty of the posters dropped, snark rose.
A pretty straightforward response of increasing cynicism in the face of damaged ideals. Kinda the American story of the last decade or so encapsulated in a microcosmic environ

Yes, thank you, this is exactly what I was going to write as being the reason for the rise in snark and the decline of patience and perhaps kindness. The fakes, frauds, and fishers are a PITA. It's hard not to let them color the overall feeling of the boards as a meeting place.

I'd like to say though that people really do come through for a genuine request for knowledge, or especially a request for help. That has never changed. There is a smart bunch of people here that can see through BS, but also reach out to those in need. It's what keeps me coming back- I rather enjoy the cutting away of deception, and I am awed by the depth of knowledge that I see in so many areas and then the willingness to share it.

I'd say when fraud is suspected, those posters get cut down to size more quickly then before. That is where I believe the rise in snark comes from. I also have to say that for the most part, I feel that the snark is justified when a target is acquired. There is a mistake here and there, but overall there is more negativeness coming in to the boards now, and therefore more negativeness flowing out. Cause and effect.

It's true - the smaller the box, the more trouble it'll give ya.

See the above bolded.

Sadly, due to the (at least percieved, if not actual.. and I beg leave to presume that the actual is more common) advent of the fraud factor, too many folks get pegged negatively. And frankly, because so many of them neglect to take the time to familiarize themselves to the culture of these forums... well, they get lumped into the negative slot (until and unless they prove themselves to be - for lack of a better term - legit).

It is not just kink boards that have this going on, either. Nor is it NEW.

This is Kana

Frankly, personally, in some, hell, many ways I'd like to see lots more snark. Heck, I'd like to see grenade launchers.
I participate on some forum boards that are pretty much wide open-if a person says something idiotic or patently ridiculous, they get killed for it right quick. In a lot of ways I think we are waaaaaay to tolerant of obvious fakes and treat em far too kindly, hence they keep coming back...and worse...bring lots of their kind-hearted empty pocketed "friends" to ask absurd questions, act like trolls and, IMHO, pick our brains on this side so they can be better fakes and frauds on the other.
(Note-this ain't an attack on the mods or how they do their job, they have a thankless, difficult task and do it for fun and for free, which I admire and respect. And hey, it's their house, they get to make the rules and as a guest I respect that and their right to do so, just offering feedback here)

That said, this is pretty much standard operating procedure as a small tight knit community grows-bonds loosen and often break, important valued members seek greener pastures elsewhere and take their knowledge and social footprint with them, strangers wander in with all the accompanying pros and cons, and trust deteriorates as familiarity fades. It happened in the colonies, it happened in ancient greece, it happened with the rise of suburbia and the explosion of the automobile

Buuuuuuuuut, there are still amazing people here and a wealth of knowledge, some incredible discussions about real, meaningful shit occur on a pretty regular basis, and good feedback occurs on a regular basis.
Plus there's a whole lot o'flat out silly and that's always good, especially in a realm where waaaay waaay too many folk have a tendency to be overly serious. Silly is healthy. It demonstrates balance.

Not trying to offend, just a long time denizen calling em as I see em....

How to recruit newbie findommes to Collarme.

Who knew there was a Tumblr account out there actually encouraging peeps to findom CM specifically...?

That's one source, now, innit.
