Indeed, toilet slaves have the worst of things.

God help us if they stop allowing shit eaters.

(WTF is next....I ask you?).


I laughed and snorted. Stop it. I'm drinking a coffee.

Before anyone starts saying smugly "Not our problem, it's only happening to those bad perverts over there," be aware that in terms of reality, FL has not broken any of those "Big 4" rules. But apparently, posting fantasies about any of them has been enough to get them hammered. And it's not just turning off the money tap: Visa fined them massively, unilaterally and without warning of any kind.

And forget the smug jokes about Canada as well. On the one hand, as a multinational corporation Visa makes its own rules: on the other hand, as a US based company with rich Bible-belt shareholders, the rules it makes are those of the Tea Party, and it doesn't matter where you are in the world so long as they have you by the purse strings.

This is not something happening to someone over there which is good news for CM. This is a site by site attack on sexual freedom. One of my publishers has had to switch payment processing to Zombio because Visa decided their BDSM content was unacceptable. We all need to stop saying "It could be worse, it could be us," and start thinking what happens to people who let themselves be picked off one by one.

Edited in as an afterthought - I wonder if it's pure coincidence that the Library forums disappeared without warning or explanation last Autumn? The Library has been run purely as a draw for a commercial site for some years, so it would be their style, if they were threatened like this, to just pull the plug on the risky non-paying side of the business rather than try to fight on like FL.



Listen, would it be okay if we didn't blame this on the TEA Party? Because as a member of the TEA Party, I can tell you that this isn't in our forms, or in our sights, in any way, shape of form that I can see. TEA stands for TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY. We have no statement as a group about anything else. So while people may have complained, IT WAS NOT ABOUT THE TEA PARTY ALREADY.

They can't process payments if the credit cards won't allow them to use them any more. The credit cards have announced these are the big four and they either abide or go out of business.

Oh come on a mass exodus to this sock puppet creating forum... really are you sure about that......


here is a unrelated but related article if that help...talking about the need for censorship to keep sites profitable...

LadyPact and why does anyone have to validate their reasons to you..... are you perhaps taking your pronoun to seriously and think people are all under your authority...lol means it a joke..... maybe right,




LadyPact -> RE: Mass exodus from rival site might increase collarme membership (10/9/2015 4:54:10 PM)

Why did you dredge this one up too?

Anybody on the other site knows that it was just a blip in the radar. "The Big Four" ended up being a big nothing. Were there some disgruntled folks? Yes.

Since the other site, as of this writing is sitting at 4,150,078 members, I don't think it's really an issue.

Please start checking the dates of the threads that you choose to resurrect.

Nah. I just kind of like forum rules. Helps to keep the crap down. At least, it used to.

It's not going to surprise me if the next mass exodus happens here. (Again.)

Why are people digging shit up that's so old?

It seems as if this poster enjoys disrupting the forums by seeking out old threads and bumping them intentionally.

@all

So, necro is not necessarily the heinous crime it once was, HOWEVER, pulling up old threads that have no current pertinence is going to be frowned upon.

I'll be getting some rules and guidelines together, I promise.

Until then, it's gonna be a bit piecemeal, while I figure out what the rules were, why, and whether they are worth having.

My greatest rule is, "Don't be an asshole," but the powers that be won't let me leave it at that. They say it's not clear enough. Lol!

My God, that would disqualify myself and every human I have ever met! Perhaps a "Don't act too overtly like an asshole?"

I find myself wondering if all the kinky, gay, et al got together and made their own card. When I was a sprout there was only AMEX

Yes, it takes money but more it takes organization.

Couldn't we leave all that to the "shit people" who are all about getting their, or Your shit together?

I mean I got my shit together and it smelled so much I fled to the other side of the world.

ETA- JK- IRRELEVANT. Troll got me.




littleclip -> RE: Mass exodus from rival site might increase collarme membership (10/18/2015 5:38:32 PM)

I wonder if the filters will also ban "shit faced" or any post that has crap or any other similar term should be interesting to see

Hail! Hail! I like this generic rule!




ResidentSadist -> RE: Mass exodus from rival site might increase collarme membership (10/20/2015 3:52:09 PM)

Just a necro policy idea... if it takes one of these to understand the post, it's not a good necro
