While the below makes it seem like the moderators will step in if a thread gets out of hand, that isn't the case.

To make a long story short, the moral is: you should not post in any forum. At least not these. Bullying will happen, even though rules are in place meant to prevent it. While the below makes it seem like the moderators will step in if a thread gets out of hand, that isn't the case. In fact, they might even pull a, "This is a reminder that as long as ToS or guidelines are not violated, anyone may post anywhere." [VideoAdminRho]. Ain't that a kick in the pants though. I mean in a world where safewords are recommended, something like, "And if I could, I would delete future posts that suggest seeing a shrink, but sadly, that isn't possible. So just don't!", means: "continue the harassment!"

*If the moderators do take action, it doesn't appear to be in a public manner. So good luck getting posts removed!! And good luck with any of them coming to right a bad situation


"Please remain respectful of other points of view and ask questions that are pertinent. Please refrain from posting inflammatory or accusatory remarks about individual users, specific groups of people, or types of fetishes. Each of us is unique and sweeping generalizations will only result in a very negative thread. We are here to have intelligent discussions regarding a variety of interests. Please try to word your question in a way that shows you are interested in promoting discussion instead of trolling for attention." -- Frequently Asked Questions - ModTwentyOne AND Ranger2

"The primary intention of this board is to provide a forum for discussion and the exchange of ideas. Considering the natural diversity of opinion and expression, it is expected that disagreements will often occur. While debate is fine, postings of the sort generally known as "flames" is not. Participants are not expected to coddle one another, but they are expected to keep things within the realm of maturity.

This isn't a place to insult the kinks, preferences, lifestyles, etc. of others. If you don't like what another person enjoys, rest assured that there are plenty of others out there that probably don't like your activities either. Furthermore, baiting, harassment and personal attacks will not be tolerated. " -- Forum Guidelines - ModeratorTwo

"There has been an upswell in the number of threads falling victim to hijacking lately. Some users appear to be using this as a mechanism to derail threads they don't agree with or think are stupid, or to take potshots at posters they might have issues with. Whatever the reason behind the behavior, it isn't going to be tolerated here anymore. There is always going to be some amount of unavoidable thread drift and there isn't really anything that can be done about that, but the overt efforts to kill or nullify threads/users can and will be dealt with." -- Thread Hijacking - ModeratorEleven

"Keep the discussions civil and mature, and do not insult the kinks, preferences, lifestyles, etc. of others." -- Section Guidelines - General BDSM Discussion - ModeratorOne
