Do you stay in your own territory? - 5/8/2007 4:51:44 PM

I've been wondering about this for the past couple of days or so.  I've noticed that I have a tendancy to stay mostly on the boards that are relative to who I am.  In other words, most of My posts are either on the General Discussion or the Ask A Mistress forum.  It's rare for Me to actually post on a different forum, unless I have a question for that sub-set.  If I have a specific question that would, say, relate to Switches, I'll take My question there, but other than reading the posts within that board, I will usually refrain from commenting.  Not because I don't feel I have the 'right' to post on another forum, but because I don't see Myself within that particular group.
 
Does anyone else go along this idea of thinking?  If you consider yourself a Master, do you stay primarily on the Ask A Master forum?  If you're not Gorean, do you tend to shy away from that board unless something catches your eye?  Just a curiosity of Mine.

I definately read this and that.  I would never post on the Gor threads since I'm completely stupid to Gor lifestyle.  I will post on sub threads, Mistress, Master and switch threads as I am a Dominant and I believe often times "Master" questions and "Mistress" questions can be answered by either or.  I also consider myself a bottom on occassion and was at one time collared so I can answer sub questions sometimes too.  As far as I'm concerned if you have a working knowledge and can lend that knowledge no matter what your orientation....go for it!

I go to General, Mistress, Master, Switch, Submissive/slave, switch if anything is posted there. I don't bother with gor because nothing there interests me and poly isn't something that I have really thought about getting into.

I bounce all over the boards, and will answer almost anywhere. I do read the Gor forums, mostly, because we have some Goreans in our real life community that I don't want to disrespect...and, they're cool people so I'd like to know more about their tenets and philosophies...well, not so much that I'd read the books.
 
So, really, the only forum that I refrain from posting on is the Gorean forum. Truly, that's mostly out of respect for what they're trying to discuss...I don't wanna jump in the middle and case a ruckus over some sort of protocol issue...it's also because I have nothing of consequence to add over there.

i always read "general," "Ask a sub/slave," "Ask a Master," and "Off Topic" and probably post in them more than any others.  "Random polls," "poly," "health," and "humor" are ones i sometimes read but don't usually post on.  The others i don't read so much unless something interesting to me scrolls by and catches my eye.  Once upon a time, i wandered into gor territory and lost my bearings....i have elected not to return again (as far as posting)...lol....luci

i generally stay here, but at the top where they give you a tid bit of whats just been posted if i find it interesting i click on it - it has brought me everywhere - sometimes i leave, usually when i find myself in gor, sometimes the tid bit was interesting but  the topic at large is not interesting so i leave - all depends.

I go where threads interest me and will reply if I feel I can add something to the discussion (not counting random stupidity...that's just fun). I don't post in the Gorean forums but do read them once in a while.

I don't post to Gor or Poly, but I contribute to most of the other 'Lifestyle' boards.  (Not much one for 'General', though)

I think Ron and I have been attributed 'honorary Domme' status, perhaps a few others.

I pretty much stay in my own territory.  I regularly read General BDSM, Ask a Submissive/Slave, Off Topic and Ask a Master.  I usually don't respond to threads in Ask a Master even if I have a thought on the topic.

When I start threads I usually do so in General Discussion or Ask a Submissive/Slave depending on whether or not I'm more intent on getting Submissive/Slave feedback or general feed back.

I appreciate all of the input.... Keep it coming.
 
Hey, Jeff.....  Do you think your 'honorary status' might have something to do with the shoe?

I usually read what ever catches my eye, regardless of the specific board, I don't respond to ones that are not appropriate, If someone is asking the opinion of a Master I definatly won't or can't respond since I am not one, but I will still read them if it is intresting discusion.  The only board I have not read is Gorean since it makes absolutly no sense to me.

I bounce around, and depending on my mood I answer all. Hm. Except "Ask A Mistress" because I am so not one. I don't post on the Gor Boards often, even though I love Gorean protocol - I am not fooling myself into thinking I am kajira matieral. There are days that I see great questions everywhere but the emotional energy it would take to answer is simply too much, and so I move on to the next thread.

I pretty much stay in my own area...I do general, ask a sub, and occasionally ask a master (just to see what they have to say about stuff.) I also do polls and off topic...occasionally health and safety. I generally stay away from switches, poly,ask a mistress, and the gor forum..those things don't really pertain to me or my interests.

Bounce around, a good bit.  General BDSM and Off Topic are my two big ones, followed by Ask a Master, then Humor, them Ask a Submissive (is that the name?), then Ask a Mistress.

I'm much more apt to post in the Master forum than the Mistress forum. But then, for the most part, I'm more comfortable around men than women.

Yes and no. I hang out in the sub/slave, master and general forums because those are the ones that are most directly related to me and mine (I'm a sub and Valyraen is clearly not a mistress ). Sometimes I go into the mistress, switch and health forums. I tend to view it as the questions are directed at a certain group but that doesn't prevent another group from having a good point, good advice or good information about any subject. Since one can never tell where a useful tidbit of information will come from, I see it as being helpful to both provide insight where I can and to read the insights of others when I post questions, regardless of who answered on what forum.

I rarely hang out in Ask a Mistress or the Gorean forums.  Otherwise I'll roam around.  I go wherever I feel I have something to add that is most relevant.  Mistress forums are usually too populated by dorky male subs, and the mistresses there always get to what I would say before I do so I don't have much to add :)

OK fine *grumble* I am more comfy with males than females too.
