Well that was quite a rant and I'm not going to deny that I understand all the feelings and emotions behind it, having experienced them myself but... What were you really expecting here? Yes I can understand that you can be new here but this sort of thing isn't 'just' a lifestyle thing or concerning dominants, it's also out there in society and anyone can be an idiot. There's a learning curve too and it's not rocket science that either some people misrepresent themselves or have got the wrong idea (to you and me) over what all this is about. But if it works for them and they're happy with what they're doing, what difference does it really make to you or me? The way I see it I'm assuming that you're looking for one person for a relationship. There's literally hundreds of thousands of people with profiles on this site. This suggests to me that there's hundreds of thousands of people here who would be unsuitable for a relationship, and perhaps only a handful who you would consider for friendship or worth meeting, and maybe out of that only one or two you might like to take things further. The way I see it there's reason and motivation for everything, and I can't help but wonder whether (a) the way you've been communicating with potential doms has somehow contributed to the way they respond, (b) whether your expectations of 'people' or of the response from this site is a little too high or (c) you are being overly sensitive. I may be wrong of course but these are some of the things going through my mind right now as i write this. But maybe getting all upset and angry isn't quite the best reaction. I know it's tempting when yet another div contacts you but it's not so much how they treat you that's important but how you react - and you are in full control of your reactions, not them. You see if you get angry, rant and rage, and then delete your profile, you then go elsewhere and you will find the same (trust me) and then what? You're letting them win, and you're losing each time. Look at it this way, some of us are serious about meeting people, others are here to provide the entertainment and this is the attraction of the site - so many idiots come here on a regular basis to provide the rest of us with entertainment. I mean, would BDSM be as much fun or a learning experience without such idiots? Looking at things this way is more entertaining, it makes those gaps between serious potentials so much more tolerable. But point taken.. and a pretty decent rant.
