Dom/mes, Masters, Mistresses, slaves and subs, where is your pride?

I have never been trained, so I don't really know how much merit you want to give my comment, but I would submit that while I agree with your statement, "Brattiness is something that should never be confused with playfulness," Lord Winter, I believe that discerning brattiness may be more difficult online, since it is a subjective word and may depend on the individual's personality. What one person sees as brattiness, another may not. I have to wonder, then, apart from obvious examples, how one would decide through only text, since there are so many other things that are absent in that form of speech: tone, body language, etc...and not knowing the person may impact that judgment as well. Do you agree that brattiness can be subjective, or do you think that it is objective and that, regardless of intent/personality/lack of personal codily cues, brattiness is just as it appears to be?

TLW. I Agree wiith you 100% , but honor is a cultural code that is enforced by the power in the culture that dictates it. Online as long as that X in the corner exist there is no true power here, other than the power of your own personality over those that serve us. So we who subscribe to the Idea that our word is our bound and that includes that of those who submit to Us. We as a Culture have a huge problem.the Individuals may be strong but the culture is weak. So until The Culture demands Its Do respect back, welcome Dons to jousting with the dragons that others see as windmills.For we live in a Culture that is slowly forgetting that Honor is not a word ,it is a deed carried out by a Culture with the Personal force to preserve it self.
