Best use of this tribe?

topic posted Mon, May 26, 2008 - 2:44 PM by 
I didn't get a reply from the moderator of this tribe with this question so I'll try here. I'm curious if this tribe is going to be used just for information about events or for discussion about "Locked" or the ideas behind "Locked" (ie; protocol, etc) There are so many cross posts of Bay Area events already across the few tribes I belong to so I get a bit crazy. Can someone fill me in?

    I am not sure if you are discussing my postings or not but if so...

    I posted to many tribes about the branding class because it is tomorrow. It is an important class and the only one we have had on branding in our five year history. I didn't want anyone to miss the opportunity to attend or know about it.

    Usually I post as an event but this time I took about 2 hours to post to every tribe I thought might be interested.

    Fakir has never taught branding at the Citadel and I didn't want anyone to be ignorant of his class

    If you are not writing about my post, forgive me, I figured you might be.

    Best Regards

    Phil

      Phil, mostly just commenting because of several event postings here in this new tribe. Not just yours. I'm just wondering what the plans for this tribe might be, that's all.

    Hello Kelly,

    My apologies that we did not respond to your request faster. Being a holiday weekend, most of the Locked team was away from tribe.

    To answer your question, this tribe is to be used to distribute information about the Locked events, answer questions that attendees might have, and to give some general information regarding the theme of each party and what to expect for those that would choose to do a bit of research and preparation prior to the events. We welcome discussion of ideas that are relevant to the theme of the Locked events; ie M/s, D/s protocol, service, etc. We also welcome postings of Bay Area events that are in line with these themes, as we believe that attendance at these events helps to cultivate the concepts that we are also attempting to cultivate. Other event postings are not as appropriate and will likely be deleted when one of the Locked Team has time to do so.

    Hi Kelly,

    You are correct that there are many other D/s-specific Tribes that perform this function admirably already. This Tribe will indeed be used to facilitate information or discussion about the SF Citadel's "Locked" events, and ideas.

    If you want to know what's going on about "Locked" then come here. Since "Locked" is an SF Citadel-sponsored event, this tribe will occasionally include relevant cross-marketing which may be of interest to the event's attendees.

    I would reasonably expect D/s-related discussions to occur resulting from people's experiences at "Locked", and they are absolutely encouraged, but we do not intend that this will become another general D/s discussion forum. Rather, we intend this Tribe to remain primarily a source of information and discussion surrounding this D/s-centric party.

    Does this help?

    Cheers,
    ~ Bus

      Helps very much...I just tire of the events...probably it's a jealousy issue..since we can't attend all of those!

      I look forward to some intelligent threads on D/s!!! How awesome is that?

      So, where ARE some decent D/s focused tribes?

        as a Suggestion MIchael, you could always start your own "Decent " D/s Tribe, for conversations regarding D/s. I think Tribe might have a few but if your not finding what you want or need .. I say start your own and see what happens.

          August,

          This tribe isn't for general D/s discussions, most tribes are general BDSM. I was curious what D/s centered ones existed in case I had missed one, and while I didn't state it, one of the reasons I love the concept of "locked" is it is more relationship based than anything else I know of in the city and hoped that someone might turn me on to a cool tribe I hadn't heard of.

          As for starting my own tribe, if I wanted to talk to myself, I don't need a PC for that and besides, I am tired of the voices in my head doing all the talking.

            Well, there is also bringing up a D/s relationship type question in a tribe like this one or others that don't have BDSM in their name (like Masters and slaves.) Heck, even the BDSM tribes must need to talk about the relationship aspect of BDSM. I mean, the DS in BDSM does represent D/s as far as I know (among other definitions of course).

            Now I'm going to go think up some D/s relationship questions and cross post them. *smile*

        Seems to me that the vast majority of "bdsm" forums on line these days are all about d/s, (or M/s). I seem to run into them almost daily and find it difficult to find specifically SM forums.

        *shrug*

        Grass is greener, I suppose.
