OK, let me explain. The knots I am talking about are like the Chinese button knot, or the double coin knot,or the Celtic trinity knot. Ones that you would add to a tie to make it more artistic. As far as the other kind of knots. Sometimes you want to add pressure to one small spot. Haven't you ever heard of a Happy Knot. As for using coils of rope, guess what those are called, friction knots.

OK. A slip loop. You mean like a Larks Head. That's a really good way to cut off circulation to a hand or a foot and do permanent nerve damage. Smart, I tell you what I'll do. Since you don't have one I'll use my clue phone to order you some of your clue-by-fours. As for being a fake. I don't think your a fake. I think your a pompous elitists who's pathologically insecure and criminally negligent and dangerous.
Given your very clear condescension in regards to your own "superior" knowledge, the only pompous elitist here is you. I happen to have a lot of respect for what Mr. Trolls says on these boards. At first glance, he might seem to be a bit of a dick with his humor, sarcasm, and cryptic style of writing, but once you look at what he is really trying to say, there is quite a lot of wisdom there. Unfortunately, some people don't have the higher "thinking" skills required to get the real points present in his posts.

Tells me that a large portion of the "Doms" here have broken their clue phones. Do you really think that the best way to learn a new skill is to just try it on some unsuspecting sub. Do you really think that since you are some kind of Pompous High Lord Domly Dom that give you the right to harm others? Now I don't know who to feel sorry for. You or the poor sub who has the misfortune of playing with you.
This is like BDSM cliché #13.
If I were to stick needles into a bottom without practicing, lets say, on a Nerf ball, studying human anatomy, and receiving instruction from someone who has mastered the skill, I would consider myself to be a stupid person.
If I were to use a whip, without spending a lot of time perfecting my accuracy so as to, lets say, not strike the lower back and potentially cause internal bleeding, I would consider myself to be a stupid person.
I practice flogging because its a skill that requires a degree of accuracy and finesse and if I want to safely use a heavy flogger, my aim will have to be better than what it is. However, the first time I ever used a flogger, it was a light flogger and on a girl under the instruction of my mentor. I had never picked one up or practiced on a pillow before that.
Were my actions and the actions of my mentor unsafe because we didn't follow your proclaimed mantra of practicing for hours before using it on the girl? No, because how the hell are you going to hurt someone with a light flogger? Its nearly impossible short of having such incredibly bad aim that you miss their back and wrap around their face.
How much practice do you need to use clothespins or nipple clamps? Do I need to clamp my own nipples and kill them to learn when to take them off? Or do you think its possible for me to simply read a book and remember to take them off after 10-15 minutes?
The only time I have used a paddle is on a bottom's ass. I have never sat at home and whacked a pillow with a paddle for hours on end. Why? Because its not a skill that requires the finesse and accuracy like flogging does. Its pretty easy to pick up a paddle in one hand, cover the sub's tail bone with your other hand for safety purposes, and make contact with her ass without practicing on a pillow.
The things I need to learn about paddles I can only learn by trial and error with a bottom. Hitting too hard or too soft and how much pain is inflicted with each blow. These are things I need feedback to understand...feedback my pillow doesn't give me. And I don't know about you, but whacking myself in the ass with my own paddle is pretty awkward.
As much as we like to pretend that we can go threw Dom Boot Camp and master all the BDSM skills without ever touching a bottom, the real truth is that a lot of this stuff can only be learned threw hands on experience with a bottom. At some point or another, a human being is going to be your test dummy and this isn't negligence but simply the realities of learning this stuff.
