What's Up with Shank

[intothewoods]

and I know you never never want that to happen ever....



*sounds of Shank reconsidering his Topness*

hmmmm.....

Nope, not going to happen here, but it was a lovely though for a moment or two anyway....

If you tell me how you want it then you're still the Top. Er, I mean, I believe that's how it works.

"Topping from the bottom", as it were?

Sorta like seeing the little flash of upper leg from a wind blown skirt lifting...

Exactly!

Oh my god I have missed you!!!!!!!!

I think about you a lot, and I remember the last time I reached out and got in touch and you said you'd never be back. BUT YOU'RE BACK!!!!!!


I am so, so, so so so soooooooo happy to see you Shankie.

By the way, have "they" been difficult here lately about the explicit sexuality of photos posted? At times in the past there was not much of a problem, at other times threads were yanked for showing as much as a hint of a "down there" body part.

Would my old body play thread make it in today's BDSM Talk?

Photobucket is a good place to post pics and then link them back so they show in the thread. They are very G rated. The other sites I used seem to have figured out how to block photo linking to other sites so those went away. Lit has size restrictions and at times have content restrictions as well. At one time Lit pulled several threads for photos they found as "no-no's". Linking to an out of Lit site to show the photo in the thread was a way around censorship, depending on the forums moderator.

I'm wondering what the rules of play are now?

And hey, they made me a mod here too since you left, so I can answer this!

I try to edit posts rather than pull threads. Hotlinking is kinda a way around it; if you attach to posts, I have to delete the image, but if you hotlink to an image host, I can just make it a link.

As for the content restrictions, I tend to only remove (or linkify) fucking and sucking. The rules technically say that "lascivious exhibition" is also not allowed, but I find that a much harder line to identify, so I generally leave it. For me, solo pics are generally always okay, unless you manage to suck your own cock or fuck your own ass, in which case I'd have to take it down. (Oral-anal, oral-genital, genital-anal, and genital-genital contact are not allowed.)

I absolutely hate the picture-monitoring part of my job, by the way. I get tons of shit from angry posters about it, and I have been accused of double standards left and right! Posters point out that other mods don't do this part of the job...well, bully for them, but I prefer to do what I was asked to around here, not pick and choose which rules I want to enforce. This means I follow tons of pic threads that I generally have no interest in, so I'd rather not do it, but I do my job.

Of course KC is also a mod here, so she may feel differently, but that's how I operate!

Greetings. I am one of the newish sorts DVS referred to, although I don't think I'm trying to make my mark or name for myself here. That wouldn't be very subbish of me, now would it?

I do stop in for the insightful conversations and learning. The occasional smack down on trolls can be amusing as well. Mainly I just yearn for pervy company and don't have enough hours in the day to satisfy it for the most part.

I look forward to reading/seeing more of you.

I am so, so, so so so soooooooo happy to see you Shankie.

*blush*

I guess I should never have said never. I just found a lacking not being here. This is one of the very few places I feel I can be "me" - kink and all.

My dear, I'm happy to be back.

Given my age and lack of flexibility and solo picks I might post should not be a problem

Thanks so much for this outline, it helps me as I ponder bumping that old thread.

Several updates to these and other forums now seem to prevent hotlinking from the sites I used in the past, so I must find a new workaround if I start again. I might try a few attachments first to see there is any interest from others in the material I offer.

We shall see. It is a delight to see you are still here.

Well thanks for making the introduction, I hope to get to know more about you as well.

Girl, wild horses couldn't chase me off this board! *flips hair*

And I have always loved your photos, I'm looking forward to whatever you've got!

 

[satindesire]

I missed you tons.

 

[DVS]

...and it all your fault!

Actually I have been missing this place for some time now and yearn for the open interacting here. I am missing some real kink in my life that you pervs provide some of the best kink "virtua" contact around. (Talking about a flogger is not the same as taking a flogger in hand).

I have married. She is VERY vanilla - that we can discuss later. I love her and enjoy my life with her.

There are some other changes in my kink life as well we can explore. I'm not sure I will update the body play thread yet. I just want to see how I fit in now with everyone here.

Thanks again for reaching out DVS, it feels like I'm returning "home".

How is the zap play going for you?

I haven't congratulated you on your marriage. I remember you said you were going to get (or at least it was you were thinking about it) married before you took a sabbatical from here. I'm a bit shocked that it's a vanilla marriage, but with that, you can have a bit of both worlds, vanilla and too-ti-fruity. I'm happy for you.

I should also add that she is a very courageous woman! LOL!

LOL, isn't this something many have found to be true?!!..and we warn people against doing in the first place!!

Indeed she is. As we started to get to know one another more than professionally (we met serving of several committees), I mentioned that I was bi-sexual leaning more toward the gay end of the continuum.

As a somewhat marketable commodity as a hansom, entertaining, humorous, employed, educated, and unattached male over 55 I had to narrow the field of aggressive female hunters to those wanting to be only friends - I was not interested in romance or sex for that matter.

My modus operandi involved disclosing my kinks a bit of a time in more-or-less this order: bi-sexual toward gay, lived in San Fransisco, cross-dressing, genital piercings, non-ordinary states work (trance dance, sensory dep, etc.), BDSM. It seldom got past the cross-dressing. With wife we reached limit with BDSM edge play she called "TMI" with that about a year into our "friendship".

It puttered along at friendship for about 2 years. Then one day, quite unplanned, a lunch date ended up at her place on the couch with frantic lust filled activity. She soon found herself reaching in to MY panties/garter belt and encountering a bunch of stainless steel jewelery - along with a very hard and drippy body part. Undaunted, she continued...

"a very courageous woman!" indeed.


god I love that woman.

Sounds as close to perfection as one can get...and brought a smile to my dial.
