Aw, rats. I can't think of a suitable punishment. I guess I'll have to pass on that Grammarian of Gor job.
(Although I have to admit, it would've made a great book title. Maybe we can sell it to John Norman's estate or something.) lol. You know my stance on submission. Feel free to attempt to punish me. Expect a highly entertaining, but decidedly un-slavelike response.

Yeah, even though I wore slave silks once while pole dancing at the hangout, I would have a similar vehement reaction to any one trying to make me a slave. Trout you old knucklehead, I would have to agree with you!

As Grammarian, it is of course beneath me to chastise an errant subject. Fortunately, I have the perfect assistants for this situation. Oh, Ms. Tempel! Ms. Hastings! The Fish is getting all flippy again...

If you want a little more casual and less formal Gor you could try being a slave for a Panther tribe or outlaw group.
You could even try being a Panther or outlaw yourself, the thrill of the hunt and capture can be very intense.
In my experience you can get hurt anywhere, Gor, BDSM, D/s schools. Its very important that everyone has earn your trust, don't automatically give it to them no matter who they are. Respect and trust are two completely different things.

From: Rhianna Larkham My question is how did everyone find out what there calling was and if you are a Kajiria how did you remember all the information you have too, it's quite overwhelming. You don't ask easy questions, do you? I spent some time in gor. It is not for me. How do I know? For a start I don't buy in to the things they preach; and I got bored with the preaching very quickly. In the end I found the whole thing silly. The other is that I just can not relate to it like I can with my RL experience in the lifestyle. It's what I knew first so it's what I go back too (/me sticks her tounge out at Lindale  ) My oldest and closest friend is gor through and through. I love her dearly. I visit her sometimes either at her jarl's compound or a nearby market place. She is happy; she has found a man she trusts and she would like nothing better than to live that life for real. But like I said, it's not me. i return home to Mistress. i do what can to easy the stress of Her day. i try to make Her proud of me. W/we share a one to one relationship. Mistress takes me out to see the world somedays. Some days She does other things best left unsaid. But after those times She comforts me. And She always encourages me to grow. To me gor is a subset of BDSM; but then so are the D/s and every other section of the lifestyle. If you ever want to explore other options, there are many places to try. My Mistress found me at a place called "BDSM Sanctuary" or otherwise known as "Dominant Encounters." A search for either one will lead you there. This is not hangout or meeting place usually, but rather a place to post your name. There is a board for Masters and Mistresses who are looking for subs and a board for subs and slaves looking for owners. Each has a notcard with details on they want, when they play, what they expect from the others and other information to help you find a good match. Mistress Isabelleh found me there as I was filling out my note card and I am so very lucky she did. We fit like hand and glove, wrist and shackle or maybe lock and key. I can not tell you the number of poor Masters and Mistresses I have been through. My Mistress says the same of her pets. The only thing I can say is keep looking and understand that you will have your heartbroken; but don't let that stop you. And while it may sound very odd to be coming from as submissive a slave as i, there is another old saying in SL that goes, "Never let someone be your priority while you are only an option." There are Owners out there that care about Their pets and their wellbeing. I hope you find yours, whether it be in the rigid structure or gor or the wilds of the mainland. May you walk in the shade, sister.

From: Trout Recreant Maybe Lindal should become a Gorean Mistress. Or get a male alt if that's required. She could be the Grammarian of Gor.
Kneel girl! Now, arise and go to that chalkboard and write, "I will not end a sentence with a preposition" three hundred times.
You - with the dangling participle. You disrespect me when you speak like that. aff with your silks. It's time for some "discipline".
. I see a great career opportunity for *myself* here....

From: Rhianna Larkham ...Huh Lindal the what the what and the What? Sorry, Rhianna. If you stick around here long enough, you start to get a feel for some of the in jokes. "FrootLoop Roo Overlord" was a reference to Tegg Bode. Tegg is a wacky Aussie who generally wears a kangaroo avatar. A while back, he posted about 200 "tips for Evil Overlords", stuff like making sure the ventilation shafts on your Fortress of Doom were too small to crawl through. There was a long silly thread on Tegg's overlordship. Somewhere in there, I got forcibly married to him, but was finally rescued by Trout Recreant (Forum attorney, daredevil pilot, Slut Rater, con artist, raconteur, and My Hero). Since then, Tegg has changed his forum title to FrootLoop Roo Overlord. See? All perfectly understandable once you know the backstory. And an example of why it's so fun to hang out here. You never know what's going to happen next.

It was some of my finer work. RE: Melissa's post. I think the important thing is that people can always find their place somewhere. If Gor is your thing, then you should be able to find a good fit if you try. Melissa's was the D/s thing. Others may be into whatever, but the important thing is to just keep looking until you find a spot where you are happy and comfortable. that's what it's all about, isn't it?

From: Rhianna Larkham Thank you both for your help, i'll definently look up European Groups on Gor inworld and Czari, i'm very sorry if i offended you with my comment about Iaomai, i was just going on what i have heard and read in the forums here. Well i very much feel i would be better in a Gor seeting than BDSM, i'm not really sure how too explain it but i very much enjoy the atmosphere and the excitement in Gorean Sim's. I would very much like too meet up with you inworld Czari. I'll definently contact you inworld too talk  . I wasn't offended, Rhianna. One of those times when text communication loses facial expression and voice inflection. I was trying to use capitals and punctuation for emphasis.  I appreciate the apology, though not needed *smiles*. I will be in world on and off all weekend. If you have a specific time you'd like to meet up, send an IM here on the forums and I'll come in. Otherwise, if you see I'm online, just "page" me in world. I wish you well.

From: Trout Recreant Rhianna - I know nothing about Gor, but if I wanted to, the first person I would turn to would be Czari. We rib Gor quite a bit and she has never gotten on a high horse, over-reacted or done anything but show a good soul and a great sense of humor. She'll lead you in the right direction. Awww, Trout...thank you.

Gor is all make believe .. just do whatever you enjoy doing.
Online BDSM is basically Make Believe also.
Both might have an online relationship included in there somewhere - But take the play pretend stuff away and they are a lot like any other online relationships.

(Although I have to admit, it would've made a great book title. Maybe we can sell it to John Norman's estate or something.) Mr. Norman is alive and kicking... Witness of Gor was (semi) recent book. Unless he died this year in which case.. I'll just go sit over there now and shut up....
