Joined for a month and then cancelled.
I messaged quite a few in the surrounding area but I was met with minimal replies. And yes I did put effort into the messages and no copy and paste jobs!
There would appear to be quite a few old profiles if you look at the 'last logged in' data. Edited 20 Jul 07, 10:18 PM by caressme | |

I've found it great to make friends on but curiously disfunctional for finding play partners. The forums are lively though, and through searching past threads can provide a wealth of information. - Chris "Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats" -Henry Louis Mencken | |

i found the site had an awful lot of timewasters and knobheads to be honest,but thats just my view of course,and many of the profiles hadnt been used for a very long time,but maybe that means the site is so successful everyone finds someone and just forgets to update thier details !! | |

I quite like it, but it is very US-dominated, unsurprisingly. I find it goes through phases of being lively and interesting, and at other times rather dull, just as any website does. I would say that the standard of discussion in the fora (on serious topics, at least) is somewhat higher than on here. As for looking for play partners, this site has been far more productive for me (I even met my husband on here)! | |

Love the lay out of the site at bondage but just didnt get on with it for some reason. Just seemed a weird lay out to me but have still kept profile and check back every now and again. Good luck with it though! "insert witty comment here, i cant think of one" | |

Used to visit the site most days, but the last big overhaul left me not liking the front page and setout so much so hardly visit now. Did try and make contacts on occasions when I've been going to the States with absolutely no replies whatsoever. Agreed, forums can be quite good, but I suspect a lot would run a mile if they had to do something for real. Only being a free member the bringing in of all the restrictions (ie not being able to send memos) just put me off even more. happy volunteer for mind control and robotisation experiments | |

Certain areas such as 'Hanging out' are even more cliquey that here (is that possible?). Some sadder bastards than I spend their life in wordgames to the extent that their postings number in excess of 150,000. It is howeve a wonderful resource for information and Europe and the UK seems to be getting more lively. I can only remember going with one sub from B.com and that did not last because I was not married!!!!! Strange world. | |

In 2006 I attended two weddings that were a direct result of people meeting through Bondage.com in the UK & was invited to a couple of others which were either two far away or were on the same date! In 2007 I've had invites for two weddings based upon people first meeting via Bondage.com.
