just not mentioning it, cm mail

Ok, now that part is finished.

<Clears throat>

Protocol.

One thing, peon.  I don't tell clip to write that way for anything that's not related to BDSM.  He doesn't construct his personal affairs that way with vanilla folks.  In our exchanges, yes.  Here on the boards, yes.  Writing assignments, yes.  Basically things that relate to his submission. 

As to people not in service to Me, I stand by My earlier statement.  Write the way you are told, and if you have no one to tell you, write the way that you feel expresses you.  Don't many of us already have to hide a part of us due to family or jobs or any other number of things.  Why hide the way you want to express yourself around like minded people?




Lockit -> RE: To CAPITALIZE or not ? (11/30/2008 8:18:46 PM)

I wouldn't mind seeing a picture of that Peon... hehe  A lil less talk and a lot more action, I am thinking.

Whew!  I'm glad you said that, LP.  (Though I'm intrigued about those 'writing assignments'.  Do you set him homework?  Wow!  Not that it's any of my business, mind.)

Why hide the way you want to express yourself around like minded people?

That's a strong point.  On that basis, I can understand why many people would want to act in a more D/s way - involving more protocol, doubtless - when writing here on the boards, for instance.  But it's on that same basis - that I want to express the way I am - that I write the way I do.  D/s is a part of me, but just one part of me - and that's reflected in my style of writing here.

Careful what you wish for Lockit, careful . . .

That works, peon.  The thing is, you might change your feeling on that someday, or meet a Domme who wants to use it as a tool to help you focus on your submission.  It might come at a time that you find the person that you want to serve so much, that you want to please her, and do what she asks of you.  Maybe it seems odd to you today because it's not something that's happened yet, but that doesn't mean it can't.

I'm quite sure that things will change come that day, LP.  I'm also sure that I'll be surprising myself by the nature and extent of some of those changes.  All part of the adventure.

None of us end up where we start out, dear.

I've told Peon this so I hope he won't mind my saying it here.  I like watching how he evolves and I am looking forward to continuing to do so.  Just think... one day we can all say... remember when Peon... hehe...  That's when 'I told you so' gets fun!

I think a hard limit for me, re rules imposed by 'my domina' (god it feels silly using that phrase now, so hypothetical is it!), would involve my interactions with others. 


Just as an aside...like LP, my eyebrows raise at this use of the phrase "Hard Limit", which here seems to be a synonym for "wrestling for control in the relationship".  Just an observation, but you seem to insist on being the "One and Only" for any potential domme, which implies a right to control HER "interactions with others"--and yet you want to set "hard limits" that forbid her from exercising any control over YOUR interactions with others?

Exactly who is the "dominant" in this envisaged relationship, I wonder?  'Cause from where I'm sitting--it isn't Hypothetical Domina.  [;)]  I can see by reading the rest of the thread that you must have been envisioning "interaction with others" solely in terms of being ordered to use of Protocol Speak in all walks of life, which of course would be regarded as silly by most people...but the way it was initially phrased certainly does seem odd and not terribly...err...submissive.

Yes, I did think LP was talking about Protocal Speak in all walks of life.  A silly assumption on my part, looking back on it.  I actually did start picturing an academic editor emailing me with a comment like "can't you buy a new keyboard with a shift key that works properly?"   (I was probably posting too late last night, as usual.  Hence my assuming that Akasha was talking about kiddies' toys in relation to sponsorship for her bachelorette shindig idea - an even sillier assumption.)

As for being not terribly submissive - well, I'm not, and wouldn't be, outside of my relationship with a partner.  I'm assuming she wouldn't expect to have control outside of that (or much of it) anyway.  But, all this notwithstanding, there'll be a grey area - perhaps bigger than I can imagine now.  I'm prepared to be surprised at myself.




RainydayNE -> RE: To CAPITALIZE or not ? (12/1/2008 3:46:21 AM)

some people insist on capitalization rules, slashes, the whole nine yards
what's "protocol" for you is annoying for someone else, and visa versa
the slashie stuff is really hard to read =p but if you're told to do it a certain way, do it that way and fudge the rest, since you know... you have your rules and your dynamic and the forum doesnt really effect that




PeonForHer -> RE: To CAPITALIZE or not ? (12/1/2008 3:50:42 AM)

I don't mind your saying that at all Lockit.  I'm sure I won't mind the "I told you sos" when they come (as I have a strong feeling they will, too).  I just wish I could read the word "evolve" without thinking of myself as a monkey, that's all. [:D]

But you are a little Sass Monkey and you know it.

Aw come on, Ms S. I've evolved a little beyond that now, I like to think.  Sass Orang Outang, at least . . .

I don't know... I was hoping for a copy of that photo of a rose bud coming out of your bum... but my mail box seems to be empty.




PeonForHer -> RE: To CAPITALIZE or not ? (12/1/2008 5:47:47 AM)

I don't know, Ms S.  Lady Hib's comment has reminded of a certain thorny problem I could have in making such a picture. 




bratb -> RE: To CAPITALIZE or not ? (12/1/2008 5:48:07 AM)

persephonee,
 
i don't quite understand what you state here ? If you were truly interested in serving this Mistress why would it seem such a difficult task to write the way it pleased Her ?  i find other tasks a lot more challenging and difficult than this one lol .
 
Being in the "courting " or " consideration " phase of the relationship and having interest in serving the Mistress i would do as instructed to please Her .
 
This doesn't sway my being intimate with Her at all , it only gives me great rewards when i do as she pleases .
 
 The way i am being taught, in the " consideration " phase we are supposed to be honest about something that bothers us or is a hard thing to do that way the Master or Mistress will either compromise or stop the consideration .
 
Just my humble opinion !
 
Respectfully,
girl




bratb -> RE: To CAPITALIZE or not ? (12/1/2008 7:16:54 AM)

Hello Aall,
 
i would like to once again thank Aall Tthose that replied to my question . While thinking about the many different replies i have recieved , an idea came up that just might make my writing more pleasurable and not give Oothers headaches [:D] !
 
HMMM !!!!! Aanyone notice a difference in this message [8D]  ?
 
Respectfully,
girl




bratb -> RE: To CAPITALIZE or not ? (12/1/2008 7:47:03 AM)

Hello PeonForHer,
 
To answer your question , i was trained in the " Old school " protocols and the way i write to my Mistress and Oothers is most pleasing to Her .
 
Hopefully Oothers will understand that the way i write comes natural for me and i don't consider it to be a bother nor time consuming in anyway .
 
Thank Yyou for Yyour replies .
 
Respectfully,
girl

Did she really tell you to write like that when talking to people other than herself, bratb? 




FloridaMistresse -> RE: To CAPITALIZE or not ? (12/1/2008 8:14:52 AM)

Well, bratb

Personally I think this is an unusual lifestyle, and why should the writing  or communicating of it, be any less unusual? LOL

If your Mistress or Master or whatever you call them (again preference, no right or wrong)  wants you to use caps, lower case etc.  Then use them. It should be for the rest of U/us to over look it if W/we do not use it, or to accept what is your Owners preferences. It is not that difficult a transition.

I support whatever form of writing you are instructed to do as long as it is respectful, and quite franky it is.  you are sweet, charming, sincere, and do your Owners proud.  Good luck, and I have enjoyed your post.

Simply~
