Loki 19:40:21 pm CDT
I never was able to make any of them, back when I I was stuck in r/t....
I noticed the slave list on the info pages....how many of those girls are actually around?
Ramses 19:41:11 pm CDT
not as many as I would like to see Loki ...
I will double check My stock and let you know how many I need
Loki 19:42:34 pm CDT
Aye, as You wish Captain....
Aye, I hvnt been here long, so I thought Id ask
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 19:42:56 pm CDT
if jesse may comment...
the pledged patrons list is the same way.. some are on there from years ago and haven't been seen in a year or more... jesse once suggested that a note be posted to the boards giving the missing both Free and slave a set amount of time to reply and then clean the list up some.. *shrugs* it'd make it easier for girs not to have to remember a long list of pledged that are never around..
Loki 19:43:26 pm CDT
I was going to bring that up as a topic jesse, slave list and patron list....
galah{GS} 19:44:49 pm CDT
but some that go away do come back....heheheheeeee gal is proof of that heheheee
Loki 19:46:04 pm CDT
yes you are galah, but your a functioning girl~chuckle~ not missing in action for a year or more
Loki 19:47:01 pm CDT
although I did catch Jakes echo in the Tavern the other day....
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 19:47:08 pm CDT
maybe they could just be transferred to an inactive list gal?
jesse wasn't suggestiong wipe them off the slate completely... there's an inactive list of Captains so to speak.. why not for Pledged and slaves?
Loki 19:49:00 pm CDT
I think it would all depend on what they did here in the shores, if they pledged one day, and left a month later, why honor them? the Captain E list is for those past Captains that made a mark here in the Shores
galah{GS} 19:49:07 pm CDT
ooooohhh i do agree that many names need to disappear because they are NOT coming back jesse....and i think that some that might come back, come back with a new name anyhow
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 19:50:09 pm CDT
that's true as well Master... maybe not for those who did that.. but some were around for a while and an active part... maybe such as that could be at the Council's discretion...
galah{GS} 19:50:27 pm CDT
we don't need to make it look as though GS is huge, we just need a nice little INTIMATE group **wiggles her dark brows**
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 19:52:11 pm CDT
it could be a touchy thing.. someone who was taken away due to r/t and could not let GS know.. but one day come back and found themselves wiped away.. after being an active part.. might decide that GS had given up on Them..
but those that just disappear because they cant buy a girl or screw enough of them..... jesse agrees.. wipe it clean..
Loki 19:53:23 pm CDT
if a slave or patron has been gone for over a year, with no word, or interaction, I think its safe to say, theyre not interested in being here, r/t or not.......
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 19:54:37 pm CDT
but would You agree to at least making a post to the boards Master Loki.. giving them a fair chance to say.. "I'm still kicking" and for whatever reason cant be here?
Loki 19:55:09 pm CDT
in summary....its been noticed that many gs slaves and patrons are no longer here, but on the information slave a patron lists....do we need to keep them on there, when they havnt been around or a functioning gs member
Loki 19:56:05 pm CDT
personally jesse, no..if they can posts the boards they can pop in and be seen...whether in person or echos, just my opinon though
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 19:57:08 pm CDT
it does make sense Master... and is a good point.. if they check the boards often enough to catch the gossip so to speak. they could be warming the furs to see it happen...
Loki 19:59:15 pm CDT
I can very well see being stuck in r/t for a month, or two, but it donest take that long to pop in here if they want, I take it as they have no wish to be in the shores, which is their choice, it would have been better if they would have begged out of collar or unpledged of course, but thats another topic in itself
Ramses 20:00:12 pm CDT
I have to agree Loki
I can bring it up before the rest of the Council to get their thoughts
galah{GS} 20:00:40 pm CDT
we also need to work hard and adding to that list? of new and active members, ones that do want to be here
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:00:43 pm CDT
jesse often wonders how many of the collared one's are off collared elsewhere... but as You said.. another topic in itself
Loki 20:01:20 pm CDT
aye Captain
aye jesse and galah, excellent points..
galah{GS} 20:01:46 pm CDT
with the Slave Masters permission, gal would be happy to work over the inn again heheheheheheeee hehehehheheeeee she has snagged a few that way **burst into laughter**
Ramses 20:01:58 pm CDT
I agree with that as well, galah
if we keep the list pruned, then I think ti also shows those new patrons and slaves that their contributions are appreciated
Loki 20:03:26 pm CDT
nods at galahs commment~
Ive been surfiing the Inn, checking things out over there, in case recruiting is required, I only go once a week or so though, I dont want to see what I used to see happen...everyone hangin over at the inn or the DM, so I dont dwell long there
Ramses 20:04:15 pm CDT
Loki, well said
I know galah would have them coming over here lickety-split though *L*
galah{GS} 20:06:27 pm CDT
for gal to be here, she has to keep her chin up and work in the now and future, the past just drives her away and makes her not wanna come back...just a thought
galah{GS} 20:07:46 pm CDT
but that doesn't mean gal don't wanna see gs be what it once was, full of life and energy...fond memories of the good ole days hehehehehe
Ramses 20:08:19 pm CDT
so in summary, I think its a good ides to keep the list of patrons and slaves pruned ...I will toss it by the Council at large and see what they think
Loki 20:08:40 pm CDT
everyone needs a break, one time or another, but when that break becomes long, without nonsoever a word... its becomes apparent what there wishes are...
Ramses 20:09:09 pm CDT
Loki, very well said
Loki 20:09:14 pm CDT
Aye Captain~nods in agreement~
galah{GS} 20:10:11 pm CDT
but one has to watch those words Master Loki, for a girl at certain times wanted to say she was leaving forever and wouldn't be back....but then she would hafta eat those words cause her heartstrings draw her back again
galah{GS} 20:10:54 pm CDT
so for some, its better to quietly fade away for a time
Loki 20:12:55 pm CDT
aye galah, decisions to leave for good must be made truthfully to one's self, taking a break to gather oneself isnt the same as up and leaving and deciding to do other things that being in the Shores
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:13:01 pm CDT
but most who fade.. come back with in a years time.. as Master Loki put it.. "functioning" probably over half of that list hasn't been seen in over a year or more
Loki 20:13:36 pm CDT
exactly jesse, two different things...
Ramses 20:13:57 pm CDT
I think that's the key ... the one year time
I've also taken a few breaks which never lasted more than a couple months
Loki 20:14:43 pm CDT
I agree Captain, the One years time~nods~
galah{GS} 20:14:45 pm CDT
would there be email addresses for those missing? could always make an effort to email a welcome to come home before writing them off?
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:16:14 pm CDT
some may have a visible email address on the member list of the corks.. but most probably dont...
jesse emailed Master Shadowglade not long ago and got a reply... but He's the only one she had an addy for still
Ramses 20:16:27 pm CDT
I think we MAY have some contact information, gal
but then how far do we go to entice the prodigals back?
Loki 20:16:41 pm CDT
perhaps galah, I cant say either or ~chuckle~ I just know what I feel, but fading or disappearing without word for over a year because you cant decide what you want seems the easy way out.....even for a slave, state what your doing, on the boards or tell a captain, it brings honor to oneself
Loki 20:18:32 pm CDT
In My opinion I say why bother? if they been missing for over a year, as in patrons or slaves....Shadowglade is a Captain E, he will always be a part of the Shores
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:18:39 pm CDT
Master.. on how far to go back and entice.. perhaps a bit on what Master Loki touched on..
most everyone here right now has been around for a long time.. and remembers the pledged.. those that were active and contributed could be contacted... those that were less willing to act or learn to be a better Gorean.. *shrugs*
galah{GS} 20:18:41 pm CDT
you know Slave Master....sometimes, ppl think NO one cares, gal thought that and stayed away and then recently shadow wrote to a girl and expressed missing a girl, and see...gal came back, hasn't seen shadow even once though hehehehehehehee
Ramses 20:19:36 pm CDT
I tend to agree with Loki
Loki 20:23:04 pm CDT
and its not like they are banned, they can always repledge or beg for the gs collar if they make their way back home..
Ramses 20:23:53 pm CDT
nodding in agreement with Loki
Ramses 20:27:15 pm CDT
ok, we seem to have beaten that one to death
any other topics?
EVENTS/GAMES & FW PERMITTED IN THE TAVERN - REVISIT THE RULE?
Loki 20:31:15 pm CDT
perhaps the Free Men will have the contest again, trying to fur the most sluts~chuckle~
Ramses 20:32:30 pm CDT
*chuckling*
that might generate some business Loki
galah{GS} 20:33:16 pm CDT
gal remembers the good ole days when Masters just walked in the tavern and snatched up a girl and used her well, right then and there....nowdays gal don't much understand why Free Women can't be in the tavern, cause NOTHING goes on in there anymore
Loki 20:33:24 pm CDT
Captain...has there been any talk about an a auction?~chuckle~ might need more Free Men around for that though
Ramses 20:34:05 pm CDT
Loki, that's the limitation in this case
Deirdre ~ Sandman's Woman 20:35:12 pm CDT
*nodding to galah's comment* The tavern was always lively.....and in all the years that We were allowed in there, I only walked out once because of open furring........and I did it silently without drama. A tavern is a tavern.
galah{GS} 20:35:35 pm CDT
gal remembers the tavern being a scary place but that fear brings something wonderful out in a girl.....but that was then and this is now
Loki 20:36:38 pm CDT
maybe if we can get more FM here things will change for the better, as far as this subject goes~chuckle~
Ramses 20:37:18 pm CDT
I agree Loki .. We clearly need more Men
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:37:27 pm CDT
that's the bigger topic jesse thinks..
how to get more Men here.. and keep them here....
galah{GS} 20:37:52 pm CDT
oooooooooooooohhh lets here it for the free woman!!!! thanking you Mistress for agreeing on that point...yes, if FW didn't like what was going on, they simply left...and now there isn't any open furring going on and FW are not allowed, it just don't make much sense to me
Loki 20:38:24 pm CDT
Aye Captain, but what kinda Men does the shores want, those that strive to fur all the time, or those that wish to be gorean.....
narin{GS} 20:39:07 pm CDT
narin thinks that if new girls had more people around to help train them, they could learn to be pleasing quicker...thus men would want to be around them...
Ramses 20:39:12 pm CDT
*L*
I'll take the latter Loki
but I also recognize that some of the latter started as the former
galah{GS} 20:39:56 pm CDT
but don't the two things go hand in hand Master Loki? well, maybe hand in hand don't fit what she's trying to say heheheheheheee but in the books, weren't gorean Masters very horny? much like urthen men, work hard, play hard
Laroona 20:40:42 pm CDT
**reads back, and yes we saw a lot IF WE chose to read, otherwise open furring,, shrugs so what...
in a busy tavern one can be served or leave.....
Ramses 20:41:57 pm CDT
I've never been one who felt FW had to be banned from the Tavern
Laroona 20:42:07 pm CDT
narin we learnt something yesterday that I know you will never forget
if we even as Free stop learning, or have no desire to learn how the heck can we help the slaves?
Loki 20:42:29 pm CDT
I agree Captain...~thinking on how to recruit new FM to keep galah and the slaves happy~~chuckle~
Laroona 20:42:34 pm CDT
Captain Ramses maybe it is time for another vote?
galah{GS} 20:42:52 pm CDT
perhaps its just that gal thinks that role play as such, should be more interaction with each other...it don't even hafta be sex but lots of things, like games and such....how much interaction is there when a slave serves a drink or dances? she is doing everything while the Master simply states he is watching the girl **shrugs** guess galah just expects much more interaction with whom she is interacting with
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:42:59 pm CDT
it never made sense to jesse either..
when she was in a wagon camp for a short time.. there was no "Piazza" for Woman to get away from such... when a girl danced... if the FW didn't want to see it.. she turned her back...
although they didn't do the open furring thing..
Deirdre ~ Sandman's Woman 20:43:09 pm CDT
*nodding to Ramses* I remember that.....and You were not alone in that opinion.
Ramses 20:43:25 pm CDT
Laroona, I think it is
another topic I will bring to the Council at large
galah{GS} 20:44:06 pm CDT
then we lost some of the interaction by the FW being banned from the tavern, it was fun to see FW squirming and blushing heheheheheheheeee
narin{GS} 20:44:23 pm CDT
narin agrees with gal...it gets tedious without interaction...
Loki 20:44:24 pm CDT
I agree galah, it should be, but this is vt, obviously theres a problem some where with getting Men in here to fur, or to be gorean Masters for that part.... ''
Deirdre ~ Sandman's Woman 20:45:25 pm CDT
*laughing with galah* I loved watching the sparring in the tavern before there were other places to hold them. I always had a great excuse to be there as a Healer.
Laroona 20:45:44 pm CDT
galah even now you still try and make me squirm
IMO it makes for good interaction and makes myself as a FW really think how to answer to keep the r/p or interaction going
Laroona 20:45:44 pm CDT
galah even now you still try and make me squirm
IMO it makes for good interaction and makes myself as a FW really think how to answer to keep the r/p or interaction going
Ramses 20:45:49 pm CDT
galah, I happen to agree with that
its all part of interaction
galah{GS} 20:46:33 pm CDT
i always thought that the Piazza was for new ones, learners to the ways of gor, and the tavern was for old timers that know what gor is and how to behave as such....not just a room for FW and a tavern for men, the tavern of the old days, where FW would hafta watch their steps carefully, for they could be collared if they was out of place, but not simply collared just for stepping in the room
Loki 20:46:34 pm CDT
~chuckling at galah~ I tried tossing you the other night, you didnt want no part of it...
Laroona 20:47:29 pm CDT
Loki I agree there is such things as piercing, branding, etc, games that can be played and Port Kar is re-known for its dancing girls,
very rare is a dance performed
galah{GS} 20:47:54 pm CDT
when the new rule to have free women out of the tavern, gal thought maybe, just maybe the tavern would turn into a wild romp....**deep sigh** but it never did, so it just didn't make sense
Laroona 20:48:11 pm CDT
galah a valid point a very valid point one I agree with
Loki 20:48:34 pm CDT
Laroona, galah danced the other night, causes she didnt want to be tossed~chuckle~ she did a excellent job too
narin{GS} 20:48:49 pm CDT
maybe "events" could become a new cork...to inform people to come enjoy the tavern for a dance/game....
galah{GS} 20:49:22 pm CDT
ooooooooohh Master Loki, that could be dangerous, not fun.....nice little games like Master Rollo use to roll ta grapes on the floor and make the girls push the grapes back to him with their noses, guess he just loved to see all those butts up in the air hehehehehehehehee
narin{GS} 20:49:44 pm CDT
and have dates/times for events...so people can plan ahead...and bring more people in...we could also invite people from the Inn, if they are curious...
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:50:09 pm CDT
*searches for a pause button as she tries to catch up*
if we nixxed the FW/Tavern rule perhaps it would also stop the issue of FW not getting served while girls were in the Tavern and They in the piazza
Loki 20:50:23 pm CDT
~chuckling at galah~ thats not My style....dangerous is fun
Ramses 20:50:43 pm CDT
we've done that with festivals a few times narin
and Xertog has tried it with book discussions and Jeopardy
we need to support Him in those efforts
galah{GS} 20:50:44 pm CDT
i'll never forget the time Master Rollo coffled the whole chain and marched us down to the blacksmith to have our ears pierced.....WOW!!!! what a time we had
Deirdre ~ Sandman's Woman 20:50:45 pm CDT
Good point, jesse.....VERY good point.....
Laroona 20:50:45 pm CDT
LOL LOki that must have been an achievement LOL heeeeee
she will do anything to avoid dancing LOL
yet she is a good dancer *S*
Ramses 20:51:04 pm CDT
very much so jesse
Laroona 20:52:01 pm CDT
I think Xertog has an event for this hand
book readings I think....
Loki 20:52:09 pm CDT
Aye Laronna, she tried ~chuckle~ until the threat of white silks where put on the table
galah{GS} 20:52:09 pm CDT
guess we had an invisable blacksmith that day, but the whole ordeal sure did FEEL real....and thats what has been lost around here
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:53:19 pm CDT
would it be a subject to think about.. perhaps someone making a post to the Poolside corks bout book discussion night.. that way those who may be curious but uncertain about coming.. might feel better about coming to listen? and maybe stay?
Ramses 20:54:31 pm CDT
jesse, I;d have no problem putting a post there, but would not expect much to come of it
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:55:01 pm CDT
wont know without trying Master
Ramses 20:55:34 pm CDT
oh I agree jesse
just keeping expectations in check
Loki 20:55:37 pm CDT
I was thinking sorta the same thing jessenia, but not only the book discusion, but as recruitment for people for everything....and see if anyone comes and stays....I don’t recall any type of post put there advertising gs, aside for the inn, when it would give you a portal to come to the shores, Im not sure if that even exists anymore
Laroona 20:56:37 pm CDT
Loki it exists, but the issue is the time it takes to get from G Inn to GS.... could deter some
Loki 20:57:59 pm CDT
I see~nods to Laroona and narin.... perhaps a post on the poolboards would be worth a try, since its no often anyone is even in the Inn
Jake 20:58:30 pm CDT
The Inn is still a safe zone is it not?
jessenia{Rm} ~His treasure~ 20:58:34 pm CDT
wonder if Webmaster could in some sense shut down thLoki 21:00:10 pm CDT
its a good idea jesse, but I dont think anyone goes to the Inn, or if so..and with the exception GS members from time to time.... I think the place to hit is poolside e Inn... and just put a link here to GS.. that way there'd be no deterence.. just a beam them up button
Loki 20:59:05 pm CDT
I believe it is Jake
Ramses 20:59:30 pm CDT
yes it is Jake
Loki 21:00:10 pm CDT
its a good idea jesse, but I dont think anyone goes to the Inn, or if so..and with the exception GS members from time to time.... I think the place to hit is poolside
Laroona 21:01:16 pm CDT
I cannot see the poolside boards... only Diving Board... and that does not seem to be in any sort of order
GINN is a good recruiting place... but it is vanilla gor at times and many ppl do not want our gor but that type for a fur ..
they do not even get a proper look at good serves as there is no need to do serves as Council have stated...
Laroona 21:02:32 pm CDT
Loki, not to put a dampener on anything we are trying here....
I have seen many people in poolside get peeved for want of a better word when gorean enter.....
Loki 21:03:38 pm CDT
yeah Laroona? hmmm Ive popped in, not very often, and get swarmed~chuckle~ in a good way, but women though, not Men
Laroona 21:04:18 pm CDT
the best rooms to try would be the Dungeon and Pump house
if people are interested they will come
Loki looks at you and your muscles on muscles any wonder you get swarmed LOl
Loki 21:06:08 pm CDT
Im not to sure about that, there maybe problems with the BDSM vs Gorean, id rather see newbies learn from scratch no experience at all, but the DM and PH is worth a try, but....they do come here from time to time anyways...
Jake 21:06:40 pm CDT
chuckles at the peeved. I ran into that just the other day in DM. I could have sworn I helped start that room long ago and met with Most from GS and Rollo and I came to the agreement..when in DM and when in GS act accordingly. I was called Gorean in a not so nice way. Either I have come a long way or am confused? We welcome all and I was told only Goreans do not accept things unless they win at it.
Loki 21:08:44 pm CDT
Your not wrong at all Jake, thats the way should be, act accordingly when in GS or DM
Deirdre ~ Sandman's Woman 21:08:45 pm CDT
*listening to Jake and shaking My head sadly*
That's not MY Gor......never will be.
Laroona 21:10:12 pm CDT
Jake that is bad, yet they come here and expect to be BDSM in Gor
come on let’s work together
Xertog 21:14:41 pm CDT
Just a reminder. This is posted on the message board:
Tuesday July 28th at 8:00PM GS time (Central US Time) or sometime Wednesday morning for those of you from the land down under. I am scheduling Gorean Jeopardy in the Forum room. If there is an interest we can make it a weekly thing again.
Zaroud - Desert Warrior 21:15:36 pm CDT
Wednesday sounds good for Me, Xertog
Laroona 21:15:43 pm CDT
Xertog not book reading,,, goody I prefer jeopardy..
Xertog 21:20:01 pm CDT
Laroona I'd like to start the weekly book discussion up again at some point in the next couple of months.
Laroona 21:24:14 pm CDT
Xertog sounds fine, change things around a bit so we do not get too familiar with events you are trying *S*
thanks to jessenia{Rm} and narin for scribing
