No, I'm not flaming anyone, but I bet that got your attention!

On the Scheduled Chat this morning, we came up with some issues that we feel need explained in greater detail. The foremost of these is Private Messages.

Anyone who has used the new chat software has probably figured out by now that to join a room, you highlight it on the list and click on JOIN ROOM. There is, to me and several others, nothing more annoying than to be involved in a chat in a room, say, Scheduled Chats, and to suddenly have two or three Private chat windows pop out. The general concensus of the Scheduled Chat regular users is that Private chats are annoying, at that said time. The chat has been scheduled at THAT time. We're in THAT room. Come TO that room to talk to us, please.

Notice also the room called Private Chats. This serves, pretty much, as an open invitation saying, "Hey, I WANT you to private chat me." Well, if someone is NOT in that Private room, then it's probably a safe bet, if he/she/it is on a regular room instead, that said person does NOT want you to Private chat them. If you want to Private with them, it's common courtesy to go to the room which they are on and say, "Hello, Paolo (or whoever), I would like to PC you, may I?" I use my name here only as a filler. Nothing personal to anyone.

It's also a good idea to try and keep track of who you have talked to. I did this when I started out way back when. It's useful in the fact that you don't ask the same questions each time, or do something to annoy the sh*t out of anyone. Just a simple listing, like "Paolo, Male, asexual, hypogonadal eunuch, 35, Indiana USA, etc., etc." I'm NOT talking about a novel, here.

For example, the one I get a lot is "are you Italian?" Well, yea, it's an Italian name, it's my nick, and I do have a few Italians way back up the family tree ... but I have been asked this from the same person quite a few times. Take notes, folks, until who is who sticks in your mind! Oh, and by the way, the come-on line, "Hey what are ya into?" isn't really a great way to kick off a conversation. Well, it might be in someone's book, come to think.

And one last thing - in closing - if you dont' highlight a room and click JOIN ROOM, you're not actually IN the chat anywhere. You're just sort of floating about the page ...

The chat software is here to have fun with, folks, and I am not discouraging anyone in any way from using it. I'm just asking for users to take the time and exercise a bit of common courtesy and have a little respect for the other users.

Thanks.

I agree with Paolo whole heartedly. I don't like private chat messages from people I don't know. I come to the chat to go to a chat room and talk to people. Some privately chat with me but I know them and that is ok but I tire of the same old questions.

Don't get me wrong though. I am always happy to answer questions from people that seem sincere and will try to bend over backwards to do so.

However, this is a small representative of the private messages I get.

Questioner: "Hi, are you female"

My Answer: "No I am a male eunuch"

Questioner: "How did you become a eunuch?"

My Thought: How the H*** do you think that could have happened idiot, I was castrated!

My Answer: "I was castrated, and just tell me abit more about yourself".

Questioner will be silence for 10 mins or so.

Questioner: "Can you tell me more about your castration?"

My Thought: Look bucky-boy there are lots of pornographic magazines out there that are far cheaper than my time with you. If you want to come over I'll be happy to castrate you with a garbage disposal. I can only imagine that a dull blade would make it especially delightful.

My Answer: "Nope, read BME"

It just drives me wild.

I definitely agree with talula & Paolo on most of their points.

I usually don't mind Private Messages, as long as the person is sincere and not looking to get off at my expense.

I also seem to get a lot of people that start out by asking, "What are you into?"

I respond back Usually with "Bondage, CBT, and Castration"

Either it is quite for a while or they ask "Age and location?"

I gladly answer their questions, and ask them for the same information in return, which most of the time results in no reply.



I think that is one of my biggest pet peeve, people that want to ask questions about me, but are not willing to give out anything about them. If they would take some time to check my profile out, their questions would already be answered.



I do agree with Paolo, people should write things down, if they cannot remember things. I do not know how many people ask me the same question over and over, and it not like they haven't talked to me for a month but just the other day.

But I do have to admit that it can be confusing, since most people have not registered their IDs, I have talked to a separate people that have used the same ID And I know that there are others that switch between a few IDs themselves.

Hi Luvpain,

you think that's disturbing,

I allways get asked *are you f or m?* and *what are you into?*

Jesus, joseph and bloody mary

A few good questions to you luvpain:

Did you get the bid for slutboy and can I still have his balls and who's comming for dinner?

Yes, antonia I did get the bid for slutboy. I'm still working the details out at the moment I think I'll play with and torture his balls and cock, before having them removed. I haven't yet decided when that will be or what I plan on doing with them. I have yet to have a chance to personally size them up to see if they would make a descent meal or not.

:tongueout :tongueout :tongueout

I definitely have some plans on what I could have done to him, if it all works out. I think he'll enjoy being slowly modified for my pleasure

I know I'll enjoy having a slave to modify and pleasure me

As for who is coming to dinner, when the time come to have him cut, I'll let the regulars know here know and invite them over

Clip....

I drop by at my lunch time and there is 20 persons all in private chats.

So the only way to talk to any on is oh private chat....

I'm talked to some nice people but some I just thing I'm getting off

Everyone uses the chat room differently, I suppose. I don't doubt that there are, from time to time, chatters who are simply getting off and are there for nothing more. However, it's also possible to make some good online friends there if you try, and if you get lucky and stay with it.

Like I said before, it's there to have fun, to learn things, to meet people, and there's always the IGNORE button if someone is really getting on your nerves!

:p

Thanks for all the information in this post. I had already figured out to start taking notes so that I could connect with people I had chatted with before and not keep asking them the same ?’s Wax

I also agree, I would reather be in an open chat room then in private, not to say I don't use it, it is after I know someone.

Now having brokered the auction I will be at the dinner>

Luvpain, there should be quite a croud, hope you have plenty of munchies.

For me, the big issue isn't private chats, or people remembering who's who.

The biggest pain in the ass for me is the fly-bys.

You know who you are, the people who are in and out of the room so fast you don't have time to say Hi. They are the people that really piss me off.

Next up is everyone who sits there, in private chats, and not in rooms. It's ok to be in private chats, but at least get your ass into a room, so there's a chance of group participation.

You violators know who you are. And there are some days I'm so tempted to give 1 hour bans out to these people. It's just soooooo tempting.

ON other news, today's Scheduled Chat was a big success, ending damn near TWO HOURS after it began. And I think we hit 6 or 7 people at the peak. Hope to see more people next time.
