This is a discussion forum for people interested in spanking. This is not a personals site so please don't make a post like you're placing an ad. Sorry, but the atmosphere that sort of post creates isn't what we're aiming for here and it's a concern for people who are here to discuss spanking and are afraid this is a matchmaking service disguised as a discussion forum. We have a separate site, SpankSeek.com, that is a matchmaking site if you are interested.
This introduction area is for people new to the group who would like to introduce themselves and tell a little about themselves, their interests, and their goals here. It's not a place to blatantly advertise for a partner. Keep in mind that this is a discussion board. Also, these guidelines apply for the entire forum but it seems to be more of a problem in this area.
I want our members to get to know each other, become friends, and if they develop real-life relationships from this forum, that would be great, too. I just don't want this forum to get sidetracked by people who are only here looking for a quick hookup. That's not our goal on this forum.
Our goal is to provide a place where spankos can openly discuss their interest in spanking and be comfortable while doing it. If you want to meet other spankos, get into the discussions or cyber play and get to know one another. I'd love it if people could make connections and get together in real life. That's what I did and it's been wonderful.
When you're ready to post an introduction you'll have to start your own thread (link at the bottom of the page). Do not add your intro to another member's intro thread; you must create your own. If you want to start a discussion go to the discussion area, you'll get more responses there than you will if you try to include it in your intro.
Also, I appreciate it whenever anyone mentions their local group's activities, munches, or club nights. We have an area for special announcements so please contact me if you would like to start a thread there. I encourage my fellow spankos to meet each other in person in safe ways and established groups are great for that. I want everyone who's looking to find that special spanko they've been looking for.
Safety is a concern for me. I don't think people realize how many people read what they're posting and I can't control who contacts whom via the private message system. Along those lines, please do not post personal information such as email addresses, real names, hometowns, or any other specific information about yourself. Remember this is a public forum and anyone can read your posts. If you receive an unwelcome PM or any other message that makes you uncomfortable or is questionable, please let me know immediately and I'll deal with it.
That said, please abide by the above rules, take time to read the site rules (posted in the Site Information Area), and only make appropriate posts. If a post sounds too much like a personals ad or contains information we don't allow, it will be edited or deleted.
Thanks for cooperating with me on this!
