Come out of hiding thread

helllooooo any one around here? I know I have been hiding but I was looking for my old friends.
 
The things that were said in 2008 at the launch of this thread are still true for me in 2010. It would seem then that human nature does not change: a newbie has come here and feels too uninformed to participate seriously; the cliques are strong and intimidating; The Playground has more misfits and so one has found a place there among them.

These things said though, I started out here and wandered into The Playground and now returning here I am a bit surprised to see many of the same people here as regulars. I suppose I'll try to be more of a regular here as well in the future since I have chatted with some of these people in The Playground.

I agree with you too Cinner. I've just been posting a few days, but the playground is so much more active than the bdsm area, which is a shame, because it's here I came first and would like to spend the most time.


Hi guys,

I've seen you both on the playground threads and uhmmmm - snap :) - BDSM lurker to start who ended up in the playground.....
 
One of the things to keep in mind is a LOT of people moved from Literotica to Fetlife, and most BDSM/Fetish folks tend to do their chatting and socialisation there.

So if this place seems dead, that could be a large part of the reason.

So that's where everyone went to....do you know the reason for the mass exodus?
:eek:
 
Hiya :)
I didn't go to Fetlife, I've just been a little quiet.
But hi everybody, nice to see some people here.

I think you should be a little less quiet ;)

Btw. I'll be in Sweden for some hours in a weeks time, unfortunately not in your neighborhood ;)

Well, hello there :)

I'll try to show up a little more. We should catch up, it's been too long!
What a pity you're not making it up here so we could finally meet. ;)

We could, but I need to get to the store cause I'm all out of milk and stuff. Can't have that. And after that I suppose I'll have to feed the hungry boy. but soon, 'k?

Hmm suddenly a trip to your city is so tempting! ;)

Sounds good to me! And feel free to PM me as well :)

Not everyone went there.

Fetlife is a site specifically for BDSM/fetishists (unlike Literotica) and supports things like event notifications, they ability to create groups around specific topics (so not just a "BDSM" group for example, but say one around mental domination or another around spanking or...). Also, you can follow people and what they are doing, rather than just what's going on in a group.

I actually prefer Literotica's interface, and I try to keep track of some of the people I know from Lit on Fetlife. For me, Fetlife has a very strong Kiwi presence, so I mostly chat on there with fellow Kiwis. Most Kiwis who turn up to munches are encouraged to sign up to Fetlife and have a poke around. It doesn't work for everyone (and the weird interface is one reason, as I know a number of people who have given up on it because they can't work out how to drive it) but it has the people and the content.
 
I am on Fet as well. Life has just gotten hectic and not on the computer as much as I used to. But do like to stop by here when I can.
 
Thought would pop in and say hi, it's my birthday so want some spankings. Thats right drop em and bend over it ain't my ass gonna get red. lol
 
Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Snoozebutton.. I hope you have a wonderful day.. I would gladly offer you my bottom to spank :D Of all the people on here, you have by far been the nicest to me.. Thank you and may your day be filled with happiness and kink!!! :rose:
 
Its hard to say what would make literotica more engaging, i think with every forum is breaking into the regulars. Obviously there is a community that talks to each other and makes literotica worthwhile but it can be hard to break into that group.

It is like that, yeah. And I don't have any particularly good suggestions on how to "break into that group" either, other than persistence and hence becoming a "regular" yourself.
