ROLE PLAY on BOARDS & TRAINING?
Ulrich 19:26:52 pm CST
Ok we're running a bit late so I'll go ahead and call forum to order.
Everyone knows the rules by now, add your tag lines to your name, and keep the crosstalk and greetings to whispers, for the sake of the scribes.
Now if anyone has a topic they wish to discuss, whisper to me and I'll bring it to the front.
Ulrich 19:34:38 pm CST
I'm still waiting on a topic.
While I wait, I'll mention that Symbian has started a new thread in the role play board, and is inviting anyone to jump in and participate.
That's something that comes up in forum repeatedly, that there's not enough role play, and the role play is lost when you leave the room.
Here's a way around that.
Laroona 19:37:32 pm CST
Captain all good r/p a shame it is mainly only on the boards *S*
Symbian 19:38:40 pm CST
Aye I agree with Laroona
I do try and act it here as well
Ulrich 19:38:13 pm CST
Ok let's start with slave training.
With the absence of a Slavemaster, who is responsible for the training of new slaves as they come in?
nese{GS} 19:39:38 pm CST
mistress galah and jessenia is working with this girl
Zoran 19:39:58 pm CST
isn't it the Captian and the fg of the room since we have one again?
Laroona 19:40:02 pm CST
I consider it is the duty of all of GS to help newcomers, no matter if they are slave or Free
if a Free can help why not?
if a trainer can help why not?
if another slave can help why not?
if anyone can show or demonstrate then why not?
Deirdre 19:40:21 pm CST
I know that last night jessenia was working with tara.....and doing a fine job.
Symbian 19:41:10 pm CST
Well according to the books correct me if i'm wrong but the Merchants are.
But that only may apply to other Merchant Ports of Gor
Laroona 19:42:38 pm CST
another question is why has there been no Slave Master Appointed
as some girls are ready for testing and as the fg pre-tests.
Laroona 19:43:35 pm CST
Many Personal Owners train their girls
Zoran 19:44:35 pm CST
I have always trian my own but I do tell them to ask certian slave I trust to help them
lynn {SY} 19:44:39 pm CST
this girl's Master has been a great help to her,,smiles toward Him,~~
Laroona 19:45:56 pm CST
I also consider that the girls of GS should be trained to GS standards as per the website... IMO
Ulrich 19:46:02 pm CST
To answer the question as I see it, the Council is primarily responsible, and we do it through the fg and our appointed trainers.
This doesn't mean the other pledged Free or even other slaves shouldn't help if a girl has a question, but keep in mind, if they are working with a trianer, they may already have something they have been assigned to learn, and if we jump in and pile on, it could be overwhelming, especially if a girl is new.
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 19:46:15 pm CST
*any Captain can test a girl for silks,it dosen't have to be a Slave Master S*
Laroona 19:47:17 pm CST
that is true any Acting Captain can test a GS slave
Zoran 19:47:48 pm CST
agree with Ulrich I only anwser question my self to help them clarfy thing
to give them home work well that the trainer or there owners to do
Ulrich 19:47:56 pm CST
Aye indeed, the personal owners of course can/should train their girls. Sometimes the use of our trainers are requested, and we happily loan them out assuming we have one available.
Ulrich 19:48:42 pm CST
Exactly Zoran
Deirdre 19:48:43 pm CST
*nodding in agreement with Ulrich*
I understand that some of the new girls have been getting mixed messages because of that. People are trying to advise them when their trainers have already taught them differently. I know that it is probably meant well, but I can see how confusing it would be to someone new.
Laroona 19:48:52 pm CST
there always or most of the time a go-between the Slavemaster between a fg and council
the girls go first to their trainer then the fg and then she goes to Slave Master if need be
that is how it used to be...
Ulrich 19:49:47 pm CST
We're working on getting girls tested Laroona.
Zoran 19:50:57 pm CST
I Test out all the new slaves
ohhhhhhh you ment test them for silks
I missed that part
Ulrich 19:51:03 pm CST
Aye Laroona, and for the moment, the girls have been told to consider the Council the Slavemaster, until such time we appoint one.
Laroona 19:51:22 pm CST
Deirdre there are set guidelines for trainers.....
I know as I put the page up on the web site..
Ulrich 19:52:28 pm CST
That's exactly what I'm trying to address Deirdre.
We all know there is a lot of information for a slave to take in, and Free for that matter.
Dumping everything on someone at once could very well run them right out of here.
Laroona 19:52:33 pm CST
*nodding to the Captain**
Deirdre 19:53:02 pm CST
*nodding to Captain Ulrich*
Absolutely.......
Zoran 19:53:40 pm CST
lol my self I just got all the books and have start to read them
lot of words scratch head and no pictures
Ulrich 19:54:27 pm CST
I expect our trainers to develop a close relationship with the ones they are working with, help determine the right pace they should take, and work at their pace.
Symbian 19:55:16 pm CST
And then there the all different websites telling you completely different things \
Deirdre 19:55:31 pm CST
*laughing at Zoran's comment*
Poor Z.....Wouldn't it be cool if Norman's publisher put out some Graphic Novels (the new kind of comic books) on the Gor series?
Laroona 19:55:47 pm CST
Captain I agree a slave should learn at a pace suitable for them
also it is difficult to learn when they are playing in the other sites here
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 19:56:24 pm CST
the question isn't about Free helping any new comer..t hat of course is acceptable and welcomed..
but if a girls trainer is present... it's best to let the girls trainer deal with her at that time.. because they may be working on something already.. and when a Free comes in and takes over.. it interrupts the process
Zoran 19:56:42 pm CST
ohhhhhhh that a good idea
dam I have them all
we should send that in to Marvel
Laroona 19:56:53 pm CST
Symbian that is why GS has set guidelines and some sites are only what others interpret the books *S*
Ulrich 19:56:56 pm CST
Sorry folks, but I've got an rti to tend to.
I have asked Emerald Forest to hold the reigns until I can get back
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 19:57:12 pm CST
and no one is required to spend every minute they're online here at GS... everyone needs a break....
nese{GS} 19:57:16 pm CST
nese so guilty chatting in other web sites here
Zoran 19:57:55 pm CST
well I agree with that to a certian degree jess
but if the sitation is that she has done something diplease
for a trainer to step in well she be puting her own neck in harms way in my eyes
Laroona 19:58:21 pm CST
A free entering and not being offered a serve is bad form ...
as the trainer could be demonstrating how to serve..
Symbian 19:58:32 pm CST
nods to Laroona I know that's why I'm sticking to the ones that you recommended
Laroona 19:59:12 pm CST
Symbian ohh those are ones I use.. others may see them differently *S(
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 19:59:50 pm CST
jesse agrees in that regards as well Master... but often that isn't the case...
we trainers really utilize the whisper function.... instead of pointing out things a girl needs to work on in public... that sometimes can be embarassing and do more harm than good... just because it appears they're not doing anything.. doesn't mean they're not
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 20:00:40 pm CST
*if any have any other issues, whisper them to Me till Ulrich returns S*
Zoran 20:00:47 pm CST
no I agree with you on that side
and any good Master would whisper if it were a new girl
Symbian 20:01:17 pm CST
they are good Laroona I would recommend them to anyone ~ nods
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:01:19 pm CST
Mistress Laroona.. when You entered last night.. the girl had just finished a serve.. and jesse was pointing out what she needed to work on... given another moment the offer would have been made
Laroona 20:02:44 pm CST
I always thought it was greet and offer in the same post
Symbian 20:02:49 pm CST
Aye I agree with Zoran there
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:03:17 pm CST
and many slaves dont do that these days... certain ones are allowed to get away with it and others are not..
Laroona 20:04:00 pm CST
maybe it is time to tighten up on how slaves enter and greet then
so all is constant... IMO
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 20:04:56 pm CST
*that would depend on the Free in the room at the time Laroona,some don't worry about it and some do*
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:05:30 pm CST
is there anything wrong with allowing a trainer the opportunity to work with a girl?? to do so she has to point things out.... it would be very confusing to listen to whispers at what you need to work on.. as well as greet and offer serve... take that order and go about it when you're not even sure what you need to improve on for that serve....
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:06:14 pm CST
a girl can not learn if she doesn't serve.. .a trainer can not assist if she isn't given a chace to do so
Laroona 20:07:10 pm CST
a trainer can demonstrate....
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:08:01 pm CST
and before You had arrived.. jesse had been advised by Master Sandman to let the girl try it... that's what jesse was doing
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:08:01 pm CST
and before You had arrived.. jesse had been advised by Master Sandman to let the girl try it... that's what jesse was doing
OriginalSandman 20:10:01 pm CST
aye jessenia I wanted the girl to try to see how well she could do
and as I recall you apologised last night to Laroona
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:12:10 pm CST
yes jesse did Master....
but jesse is trying to say here.. when a trainer is with her girl... they are most likely working on things.. in whispers.... and when a Free comes in.. and without knowing what they're working on.. tells the girl in training to do something else... it defeats the purpose of w hat the trainer is trying to do..
Ulrich 20:12:45 pm CST
Ok I'm back. Let's not let this degenerate into a personal argument, or an argument about a specific situation.
This is not the time nor place for that. We should be talking concepts, opinions, and general discussion so we can minimize stress and confusion.
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 20:13:32 pm CST
*If that happens jesse then the trainer needs to whisper to the free to let them know S*
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:14:05 pm CST
~politely shuts up~
Ulrich 20:16:10 pm CST
OK this tarn has just about been beat to death.
How about a new topic? Somebody whisper it to me.
GS A ROLE PLAY SITE OR DISCUSSSION SITE?
Ulrich 20:18:06 pm CST
Ok another topic:
Do you consider GS a role play site, or a Gorean discussion site?
nese{GS} 20:19:55 pm CST
nese sees it as a discussion site right now like now
OriginalSandman 20:20:00 pm CST
it is a Role Play site,, tho not as much role play occurs as anyone would like
Laroona 20:20:34 pm CST
with the turn outs on Forum nights it appears to be a discussion site
I did r/p a candy toss among the slaves the other night and we all had a ball interacting...
no fake serves just good r/p and fun
Symbian 20:21:10 pm CST
Well I consider it to be both with the discussions talked about here
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 20:22:04 pm CST
*it would depend on who's in the room at the time as a lot of people can RP but one person cannot S*
Symbian 20:22:13 pm CST
Nods with agreement at Sandman
Zoran 20:22:50 pm CST
well it seem when some do rp here
if it not to a certian way seem it upset soomeone
and they cry to the council
I just think we need to aceppt the good rp with the bad around here
OriginalSandman 20:23:14 pm CST
true true EF tho when there are a few people here ,, role play does occur
Zoran 20:24:16 pm CST
I have rp with just my self here going threw motion and hopeing when some one does come in they will join in the RP
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 20:24:32 pm CST
*and time comes into play also as if you are not going to be here for a time its not worth starting a RP*
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 20:24:59 pm CST
*you know that makes you go blind Zoran LOL*
Ulrich 20:25:36 pm CST
Symbian that is true. I look at it as a r/p site, but on Sundays it's a discussion site.
We've also tried having book discussions, but the turnout was poor. Xertog put a lot of work into that too.
Zoran 20:25:43 pm CST
LOL I knew I had set my self up
YOu know what I ment lol
nese{GS} 20:26:43 pm CST
smiles
Ulrich 20:27:15 pm CST
Aye Zoran, this is Gor. It's a rough world.
People need to quit wearing their hearts on their sleeves.
lara{CY_S} 20:27:38 pm CST
gigglin..wigglin back in Master Zorans lap as she hears His words
Symbian 20:27:45 pm CST
Nods Aye Its a shame Ulrich that the same with Your fight nights I believe
Zoran 20:27:48 pm CST
I know sometime I would go into the Training Yard and practice
a few slave would venture threw picking flowers and sneeking a peek
that stuff need to heappen
it one reason Jag has lasted so long
Laroona 20:28:38 pm CST
Some ought to understand they cannot enter like a HNG and create havoc and or act like a bully arse either....
Zoran 20:29:09 pm CST
lol well I got tired of always fighting Ulrich lol
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:29:57 pm CST
jesse always thought Men could come in and act like Men....
role playing is about characters.. and it takes all kinds of characters to make up a story.... and most are free to chose the kind of character they want to play... it's all part of role playing....
Zoran 20:30:06 pm CST
welll Laroona that part of rp
I don't like it all but dam it does make thing exciting thought
Ulrich 20:30:37 pm CST
Yeah the fight nights went well, if you like watching me and Zoran fight over and over. lol
Laroona 20:31:20 pm CST
Zoran that could happen if ppl are in the site others do enter... odd as they use the who is here before entering//see no one and voila away we trot...
Xertog put a lot of work into GS and now he is a burnt out shell...
and you wonder why at times I am disappointed in some as he did things that people of GS wanted
Symbian 20:31:47 pm CST
Aye Ulrich I even put a wager on ~ laughing
Zoran 20:33:13 pm CST
looks to Laroona
I try to lower my voice
I did not come here to listen to you whine
I took time off from this place to revalute what I wanted
I am here and a pledge
AND A MAN Laroona
rembeer that
Laroona 20:33:40 pm CST
there is a huge difference between acting like a man than acting like a moron LOL
Ulrich 20:33:50 pm CST
That he did Laroona. People wanted change, he drove to get things done, and usually for naught.
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 20:34:27 pm CST
perhaps not everyone sees it as acting that way
Laroona 20:34:54 pm CST
Thorfinn tried fight nights now he is gone
Zoran 20:35:26 pm CST
Loaronaa we need a few drunk crazy they make it fun
hell gives you something to complain about lol
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 20:36:00 pm CST
*every Captain tries to do what he can for GS,some more then others,but that is what being A Captain is for*
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 20:36:49 pm CST
*even if we do get some morons in here,it is fun to lob off their heads and watch what happens LOL*
Zoran 20:38:24 pm CST
EF I just think sometime it good to have a few that cause a little trouble
hell gives us something to talk about
a perfect Port Kar that not the books hell didn't it have a ton of thieves
Deirdre 20:38:30 pm CST
I think jesse is right. The definition of moron is in the eye of the beholder. *chuckling*
TARNSMAN_CAPTAIN_EMERITUS 20:38:55 pm CST
*true Zoran LOL*
Xertog 20:40:35 pm CST
Zoran this is a open forum not the tavern and FW and slaves are allowing to speak their minds.
Zoran 20:41:53 pm CST
Xertog I know that but when I coment is direct at me for voice my opion
well that when I get pissed
Zoran 20:42:56 pm CST
Xertog you know me not to be one that start stuff i the forums
I been around alongtime
longer then most in this room
but ones a opiun is great but be ready for reaction
Ulrich 20:43:01 pm CST
Alright this is a forum for DISCUSSION
I will not have fighting in my forum.
If you're gonna fight, take it to the pits, or wherever, but not in MY forum.
Laroona 20:44:19 pm CST
IT was a COMMENT not directed at ANY
I have had this crap tonight
Zoran 20:44:20 pm CST
I look to Ulrich
nods I sorry friends seem I been away to long
I took the bait
be well all
kisses my sweet slut and lara as well
Xertog 20:46:01 pm CST
Zoran she is allowed to disagree with you.
Zoran 20:47:16 pm CST
walking out the door
Xertog I talk to you later
but I will not disrupt this forum
Ulrich 20:48:20 pm CST
Everybody is entitled to voice their opinion in forum no matter their status. I expect it to be kept respectful, and on topic.
Is that too much to ask?
lara{CY_S} 20:50:14 pm CST
runs tags behind Master Zoran
Ulrich 21:04:52 pm CST
I'll take that as a no, so I'll call the forum to a close.
Thanks everyone for coming and your participation.
jessenia{Rm}~t ~complete devotion~ 21:04:40 pm CST
if jesse may ask... who is heading up the festival?
Deirdre 21:07:47 pm CST
Thank You, Captain Ulrich, for moderating....and thanks also to the scribes.
