Just a reminder that in order to keep things feeling welcoming and fun for everyone we have some simple principles to which we would like to adhere.

First, a reminder is that this is an adult-only forum. Not just subject matter but in that we ask everyone to act reasonably respectful to one another. This means we ask:

1. No bigotry. Sexism, racism, homophobia, etc. There's no reason to bring it here. None of us want to read it and it will drive away people with whom we might enjoy exchanging ideas and experiences.

2. No politics. This includes mentioning parties, political figures, and opinions about topics which don't directly relate to BDSM/kink. We shouldn't have to repeat this again and again but some people either didn't get it the first 18 times we mentioned it or are intentionally creating discord so they can later play victim.

3. Don't be a creep. What that means is subjective but it usually involves saying gross things that make people uncomfortable. This can include points 1 and 2 but also things like objectification. We are only interested in the latter when consensual.

If you have trouble with the above then you may not be compatible with the goal of this space.

Some people will interpret this as "censorship". None of us who are emotional adults agree or care. This is because we don't feel in any way stiffed by being asked to be a decent human being.

Thanks and let's make the board a fun and interesting place to be

Was there some specific post that triggered this getting bumped up to being a sticky?
Not a bad idea and there is nothing in Mistress Tissa's post I disagree with but I haven't noticed anything objectionable lately.

Hi, furfan -

No, there wasn't. I just thought it made sense to keep some basic rules easily accessible, so I made it a sticky.

Got it. Thanks
