As the other folks mentioned, Timesrtuff, it’s just like meeting people in a bar. The drunken rude poorly behaved children (yes, they most definitely can still be children even if over the legal age chronologically) are the ones coming up and spilling beer on you while trying to get your number. There’s plenty of mature decent folk here too, sitting in the back patiently, making convo and getting to know the other decent kinky types about.

i appreciate your perspective here. It seems to me, the majority online are "drunken, rude, poorly behaved children...." Online is a whole different world where face to face norms often do not apply. For instance, prior to online did you ever hear of "ghosting?" Now it's a common phenomenon.
In some ways it seems that technological advances like online have regressed social interaction back to the cave era. It's so much easier to get away with stuff online that many would never even attempt (if not drunk) irl. (lol, there's another term: "irl," who used that phrase prior to online interaction?).
To the OP. i'd encourage you to hang out, stick around. i've been here several years and find there's always a great core group of sober, mature folk around to interact with. i will say, they do not represent the majority from what i read. One thing i have noticed is those who substantially participate in the blogs and forum are usually less prone to 'drunken,' slovenly behavior. Oh sure, we have our occasional town drunk, but even they seem more transient. Most of my encounters with the crazies have been through direct messaging, they do not seem to participate in the forums or blogs.
