I take your point that some might have ulterior motives when posting on the message boards.
For myself, I can compartmentalize the two activities, my journey & having fun. like you, I have no idea, who might be reading this (any future partner, or no), although I have an idea of 'the usual suspects' [:)]. Personally, I like the message boards, because you can have some friendly chit chat with people on many subjects, kink & vanilla, in a non threatening environment. If someone special is reading this, that's even better [:D]!




chatterbox24 -> RE: Misgivings revisited. (5/25/2013 5:40:06 AM)

I have an ulterior motive, I just say what I want whether agreeable or not![:D]

I am not looking for anything, so I just fly by the seat of my pants, but if I was it wouldn't change a thing. Still the same ole me.

Some will love you, some will hate you, some don't give a flying ****, some base the past on the present, some look at the present......

I don't look at a persons post history, I guess I might if I needed a good reason too, but other then that, I take their posts as what they are in the present, cause to me basically this is a learning forum, and with knowledge comes change. I also try to put myself in the persons shoes, try to understand their position, and why they may be posting as they do.

I personally find forum postings to be helpful along with a profile. A profile tends to be crafted, nuanced like a master artist showing their masterpiece or a PhD student putting together a dissertation. A forum post, on the other hand, tends to be much more off the cuff, like a blues guitarist jamming with a backing band or a politician receiving a surprise question in an interview. You can tell much more about that person, and I think it can serve as a comparison to their profile, and see if their words match their actions, so to speak.




garyFLR -> RE: Misgivings revisited. (5/25/2013 2:18:39 PM)

I agree with you entirely, the only proviso I would make, is not to be needlessly aggressive or offensive, otherwise, anything goes.

Hi RomanticRebel,

Have you seen some of the profiles? I suspect they're still in their caves banging rocks together!

Oops, being needlessly unpleasant, apologies [:D].

Certainly there are those who have little to no intellect to show (my fellow male sub's profiles on here tend to crack me up), but I was speaking mostly of the profiles I find attractive. However it seems that the inability to spell or put together a grammatically correct sentence is largely a universal problem [:D]




garyFLR -> RE: Misgivings revisited. (5/27/2013 7:32:16 AM)

Yes, unfortunately [:)].

Mind you, I've produced the odd typo before now[:(].




RomanticRebel -> RE: Misgivings revisited. (5/27/2013 7:41:42 AM)

Ahh, well typos happen. However, when one cannot spell basic words such as "what" or "right", I have trouble taking that person seriously(and I suspect others do as well).




garyFLR -> RE: Misgivings revisited. (5/27/2013 7:50:50 AM)

I blame text speak, personally [:)].

Or 'good' as g u d (not once which MIGHT be a typo but again and again) which makes me want to slap the boy silly. I'd better not get started here or I'll be on a rant for days. Ah well, just as we recommend skipping over the findomme profile to disgruntled whiners, so I do with ridiculously written profiles.




DomMeinCT -> RE: Misgivings revisited. (5/27/2013 8:48:35 PM)

FR: I use all the data available to me for consideration. That means both profile and posting.

What do people here really think about text speak?
Personally I hate it!




RomanticRebel -> RE: Misgivings revisited. (5/28/2013 8:49:02 AM)

I think it is useless, personally. I don't believe that I have ever been so pressed for time with a response to such an urgent message as to actually use it.

Some of the youngsters at work have tried to teach me it, I just go WTF!
