Having a safe word is important in all places...online or real life. But more importantly when you have a safe word...it needs to be respected. Otherwise what is the point?
I finally had to run away to escape the pressure. I hope that online safe words can be more effective in the future.

It seems to me we both used that word and still that person wouldn't lay off...

i do have a safe word as well Ma_am with The Tester and a few others i play with online..

Reasons i think for safe words:

1. i wouldn't want to embarrass the one i am playing with just because they pushed to far... or i wouldn't want to ahve to run ot of the room.

2. in the case i want my Dom to watch over me when someone is bugging me.. Why should i have to leave because of their rudeness..

3. incase there is not a mod in the room at the time of the problem .. i mean the mods can not be there 24/7.. i know they are awesome mods but they are human to and have r/l lives.

4. Doms should learn to use safe words on here so when they do get into r/l situations, they will be used to using them. It can be used as a teaching tool...

that is just my opinion .. maybe wrong but i am glad to have my safeword just incase..
