You are an awesome poster Guage ... there is nothing you have ever posted, that wasn't worth the time to read. But ... So many people make way, way, way, too much out of ... form emails ... trolls ... guys that hit on them even thought they are owned ... guys that tell them to "kneel slut." Sometimes I just want to say: Hello, you do realize you are on a BDSM website, right? You do actually understand that this website isn't entitled, "Wall Flowers For a Better Tomorrow", don't you? I'm not mentioning anyone in particular here ... but does a troll really hurt anyone? Does getting hit on when you already have a master, really cause stress? Is getting bulk email, really worth being bothered over? Sometimes I think people get offended ... just because they can. Allow me to say thank you for your nice words about me. Also to Fastlane. The fact is that trolls don't hurt anyone that doesn't let them hurt them. But by sheer numbers of potential pud wankers looking to massage their willy at the expense of someone else, people get annoyed. I don't think they get offended so much as frustrated at the overwhelming amount of crap thrown their way. And who really can blame them? Sure you can turn off the computer, block their email, block their IM's and just ignore them and that would be great if there was only trouble with one troll... that obviously isn't the case. I think the women's basis for resentment is the lack of respect they get. I understand that a BDSM web site would not be the first place I would look for respect but it truly is common courtesy to offer respect to a submissive or a dominant. If you own them and they are into humiliation, then you don't have to give them respect... but these people assume a role that they have not earned and step in where they aren't wanted. If the trolls of this world get screwed with... so be it. Nothing at all will make me feel sorry for them. Nor will I feel any different about the women who have to endure the stupidity.
