I have a topic, I will open the Forum, same rules, keep chit chat and greetings to whispers, to make it easier for the Scribe
first topic
we all need to know what to do about the ppl that come in and never say a word and just linger and watch...we have a couple of regulars and no matter how nice you try and speak to them, they never answer
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 19:44:44 pm CDT
snowrose always thinks that they don't want their other identity known..If you don't speak, the isp doesn't show up
kitty{LDF} Love Honor and Respect 19:45:40 pm CDT
that is very true or they are so afraid that they may make a fool of them selves
flicka-slave of Keeper 19:49:25 pm CDT
~nods in agreement with what mistress snowrose is saying~
some people come in to eavesdrop on what is happening, is silly really. But flicka thinks even if they do not speak their isp still shows.
Bretval, Merchant 19:50:07 pm CDT
Maybe they are still deciding whether or not the really want to be here
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 19:51:35 pm CDT
they could offer a greeting..Free need have no fear.slaves can beg ab {O} no strings
peanut~{Lita} 19:52:20 pm CDT
what do you think edyta?
galah{GS} 19:52:22 pm CDT
but gal thinks they been here long enough to see if its what they want, Jarl Randolph even went and got the girl by the arm and drug her in, and still no response
flicka-slave of Keeper 19:53:02 pm CDT
Master Bretval, common courtesy still requires a person to greet, whether they be Free Person or slave.
flicka-slave of Keeper 19:53:57 pm CDT
~laughing at galah's comment~
galah{GS} 19:54:05 pm CDT
that's right flicka...and its just annoying to have someone in the room not participating
kitty{LDF} Love Honor and Respect 19:54:44 pm CDT
not Eeveryone is taught respect when young..wather it be a Master or Mistress or slave
flicka-slave of Keeper 19:54:50 pm CDT
~whispers~ it brings out the naughty flicka when they do it.
galah{GS} 19:55:43 pm CDT
there are two particular that come a lot and just linger for ages, could be the same person and when the non member gives them the boot, then they come as the other name?
kitty{LDF} Love Honor and Respect 19:56:31 pm CDT
that is possible galah
galah{GS} 19:57:49 pm CDT
gal has to admit, that she toyed with the thought that it could be one of our ppl trying to catch a girl doing something wrong? call gal paranoid, but it did cross her mind
kitty{LDF} Love Honor and Respect 19:58:21 pm CDT
it did this ones mind also
peanut~{Lita} 19:58:56 pm CDT
Kurruus has a habit of that kind of thing...looks to gal
Bretval, Merchant 19:59:00 pm CDT
I agree, flicka, so we are dealing with people who lack any courtesy, common or otherwise
flicka-slave of Keeper 19:59:23 pm CDT
gal ~chuckling~ you are paranoid.
flicka has never thought it could be a GS person, Free or slave who is spying. To what end? The echoes linger for quite a while, unless a room is swept.
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:00:00 pm CDT
also former people now at poolside who seem to be obsessed with us...don't know about others, but once someone leaves, this one couldn't care less what they do..
galah{GS} 20:01:19 pm CDT
it may not be so flicka, but gal was looking at all possible reasons for a person to do that....it don't make sense, if they are interested in gor, they need to speak and get to joining in
kitty{LDF} Love Honor and Respect 20:02:59 pm CDT
but at the same time they may just want to be rude and not join in and just sit and watch for a while before they announce them selves
Dak 20:03:37 pm CDT
we have had some, that never do !
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:03:42 pm CDT
mistress snowrose, that is because for some, when they have left they have lost something that is intrinsically essential to them, like a part of their soul has been cut off, and they haunt GS like foresaken ones.
Flicka feels pity for those who leave and yet still yearn for the Gorean way.
galah{GS} 20:03:54 pm CDT
no need for paranoia anyways, as long as the one gal is serving is pleased, then shes not doing anything wrong anyhow...its just not right, and gal can't remember how it was delt with in the old days
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:05:27 pm CDT
kitty, some never speak, they sit and watch, it is obvious they are refreshing the screen, because they do not get "inactivity" logged out.
galah{GS} 20:05:36 pm CDT
**agrees with flicka** so do we just continue to ignore them, not even try and talk to them, just think of them as ghost?
Bretval, Merchant 20:05:40 pm CDT
ant any rate there is nothing really to do except to pay no attention to them until they speak to us...
kitty{LDF} Love Honor and Respect 20:06:19 pm CDT
some are just scared of saying the wrong thing and there for never speak
Lita, Physician 20:06:49 pm CDT
well there is one that left, flicka. who fortunately does not come back and hang around, that I will never feel sorry for.
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:07:11 pm CDT
snowrose gives a greetin in PM...tells an unfamiliar slave how to beg entry...if no reply, that's it, she's done
galah{GS} 20:07:34 pm CDT
gal thinks that ignoring is probably best also Master Bretval for its even more annoying to try and speak to them and not get a response
peanut~{Lita} 20:08:59 pm CDT
we could just place'em on ignore if they dont wish to get involved...then its hard to see what happene in blindness
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:09:35 pm CDT
galah, the rules of our home are that we do not speak to a person until they have made an opening post. It can be an entrance or a going to the furs post for a slave. Usually Free Persons will post a greetings, or perhaps go to the Master's furs.
But if flicka thinks that the person is new and perhaps is waiting for her to speak first, flicka will will post something like:
~sees a movement in doorway, smiles as she notices the (burly, hairy Master/slender slave).
If they do not respond, then flicka says no more, she ignores them and goes about her business of being a Gorean bondsmaid.
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:10:01 pm CDT
they can still see everything, we just don't see if they should post..
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:11:15 pm CDT
peanut ~chuckling~ flicka is too nosy a slave to put them on ignore. Sheesh girl!! what if they said something interesting and flicka missed it?
Bretval, Merchant 20:12:04 pm CDT
Yes, galah I have tried with some of the ghosts and have given up... if they speak I will be polite to them as a lesson in how to act... otherwise they are nothing
peanut~{Lita} 20:12:27 pm CDT
laffs...true.
galah{GS} 20:13:12 pm CDT
you put someone on ignore and you can't see what they are saying, right? if they don't talk which is what they are doing, then the ignore isn't going to help, will it?
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:15:04 pm CDT
But galah, they might, and then flicka would never know. Flicka is getting into a twizzle just thinking about the NOT KNOWING.
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:16:10 pm CDT
unless they do decide to speak, then it looks as though she is ignoring them ...no point to the ignore button unless the person is being vile...she has used it then...
Bretval, Merchant 20:16:36 pm CDT
Yes I would not use the ignore button as flicka says... if they do speak I want to hear it... I admit I have a large curiosity bump as well *g*
Dak 20:17:05 pm CDT
ignore I think only works on whispers
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:18:29 pm CDT
~wondering when she will be allowed to compare "bumps" with Master Bretval.
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:18:52 pm CDT
it works on public posts, but not on PMs...she found that out from dealing with the vile one..He just harassed her in PM, so she begged to leave
Bretval, Merchant 20:20:45 pm CDT
it is not as lovely as your pair, flicka *g*
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:20:58 pm CDT
Well flicka reckons that they are the losers, not us. We have our home and we are happy here, they are the poor waifs on the outside looking in.
In some ways mistress snowrose, even the vile ones. Flicka feels pity for them.
Dak 20:21:36 pm CDT
hhhhmmmm
Bretval, Merchant 20:22:09 pm CDT
Were you alone except for the vile one, snow?
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:22:49 pm CDT
~smiles~ Now that was gallant of You Master Bretval.
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:24:20 pm CDT
she knows what you mean flicka, they are more to be pitied than scorned, but there are some things that snowjust won't put up with from a HNG..
and this was years ago, when she was younger and naive...she cried
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:25:50 pm CDT
~evil little snicker~ sometimes one can have a little fun with a HNG.
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:26:11 pm CDT
she was alone Master Bretval...looking back, she thinks it was probably someone as young as she, who woulf probably be scared to even talk to a girl in r/t
Bretval, Merchant 20:30:53 pm CDT
In such cases snowrose I would suspect you should not have even asked to leave... just go... even a slave should not be subjected to such things without permission.... What do you think, Dak?
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:32:03 pm CDT
Today she would Master...she was new then and trying to everything right
Dak 20:33:00 pm CDT
no, I wouldn't say she would need to beg to leave, just leave !
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:33:08 pm CDT
uh, not that she doesn't still try
Bretval, Merchant 20:33:16 pm CDT
We have rules to protect Aall... and such behavior is simply not acceptable
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:34:26 pm CDT
yes Master...she has discussed that in class, but not for some time. she will tell that to every new slave
galah{GS} 20:35:12 pm CDT
can we kick um in the shin on our way out mistress? heheheheee
Bretval, Merchant 20:36:07 pm CDT
Are there rules in slave class to handle such problems, snow?
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:36:55 pm CDT
snow would probably have beat you out the door, so wouldn't see it .. but, seriously, be sure to scribe it...in case He should come back and claim insolence against you
Bretval, Merchant 20:36:57 pm CDT
Good anticipation, snow *g*
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:37:41 pm CDT
~laughing~ galah, that is what flicka meant by having a little fun with HNGs. We have word skills of which They can only dream . And so, use the to metaphorically kick them in the shins.
~sweet smile to all the Gorean Masters present~
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:38:04 pm CDT
there have been a few times when an unknown Free has come in and won't leave, is disruptive, so snowrose PMs the kajirae to meet her in a private room
galah{GS} 20:38:46 pm CDT
but gal don't have all them big fancy words like you flicka, shes a simple girl hehehehehehehee
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:40:31 pm CDT
she has not heard of any such problems of late...so that's good
Bretval, Merchant 20:40:39 pm CDT
I doubt a true Gorean Master would need that kick, flicka *L*
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:41:29 pm CDT
galah words of more than two syllables will usually be enough, they are not much past the grunting stage, themselves.
galah{GS} 20:42:29 pm CDT
heheheheheeeeeee heheheeee oooooooohh flicka, that IS funny
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:43:15 pm CDT
Exactly Master Bretval, we were speaking of HNGs. Flicka would not dare it with a Gorean Master, ~sweating a little at the thought~ that would be a sure fire way to be tied to the whipping post to await the "pleasure" of her Jarl. And flicka can tell You it would be His pleasure and not hers.
Bretval, Merchant 20:43:17 pm CDT
How true, flicka *LOL*
Bretval, Merchant 20:49:38 pm CDT
Any other topics, Dak?
Dak 20:50:18 pm CDT
no, that was the only one I had, *smiles*
Dak 20:51:26 pm CDT
it's near closing time does anyone have any thing else ?
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:52:26 pm CDT
No Master Dak. Was good to talk about though, and thank You for convening.
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:52:27 pm CDT
No Master Dak, girl has nothing more
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:53:25 pm CDT

Dak 20:53:57 pm CDT

snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:55:11 pm CDT
Thank You for leading the discussion.
Thank you for scribing flicka
Bretval, Merchant 20:55:25 pm CDT
It was a good topic that needed discussion, Dak... I thank You
And I thank you for scribing, flicka... as I assume you did that *g*
