RULES OF CONDUCT

 
 
 
A few guidelines for those that are new to the BDSM chat scene.
 
 
 
 

Be polite. (things like thank you and please will go a long way)
 
 
 

Watch and listen. Get the feel of a room and its occupants before you try to make a splash
 
 
 

Respect collars. A collar signifies a deep relationship between a Dom/me and sub. The levels of this relationship may vary but the collar generally means that that particular sub belongs to that Dom/me. Think of it as a wedding band and act accordingly.
 
 
 

Respect the rooms own rules. Each room has it's own particulars. Read any information available to you on it. Not all rooms are the same. Which is why # 2 is so important.
 
 
 

Always ask first. It’s better to ask someone who is familiar with the room and it’s unwritten laws that can help you than to make a big mistake and upset someone without really knowing what you did.
 
 
 

Although you may very well be the best, no one wants to constantly hear you say it.
 
 
 

Don't force yourself on anyone. If they signal by words or action that they wish you to leave them alone, back off.
 
 

Don't interrupt an ongoing scene.  It takes time for both participants to get into the right frame of mind to carry out a scene, don't interupt them.  Doing so can destroy the scene for them.  Also don't send private messages to any of those involved.  Any destraction may destoy the mood.  Similarly don't make comments about the scene unless it seems that they are invited.  Expecially rude remarks or questions.
 

Please don't be put off by all the rules. Once you start following them, they become second nature. Be open-minded, make friends and soon you'll be in a room, looking around, and know you're at home.
