    Hi everyone.

    In response to an occasionally heated debate in a recent thread (Wives and Girlfriends) I'd like to propose that CM creates a new section especially for new vanilla wives and girlfriends.

    It seems there's an issue with otherwise vanilla women coming having been pointed here by their partners, and getting upset by the non-vanilla-wife content. You know, the butt plugs, milking, and 'should we feminise them now and make them all get bred by bulls' threads. I think they are part of the lifeblood of this place, but we dont want to frighten the poor defenceless Vanilla Wives unduly....

    So lets have a new section for them. It could be called The Rose Garden.
    It would need 3 sections.
    • Introductions
    • Questions and answers on chastity and/or FLR
    • Links to useful resources for the Vanilla Wife seeking answers.

    And then the rest of us can get on with life as usual.
    It would need moderating of course, and anything untoward removing.
    There should be no sissy stuff, no butt plugs, no milking, etc.
    Just good clean info for vanilla wives making their first foray into Chastity and FLR.

    If they then want to venture out into the uncharted rooms of the Mansion then they could have a look around of their own free will.

    Let me know what you think. Good idea? Anything to add?

    I agree, this is a great idea. Moderating the room is a must.

    I have nothing against butt plugs, sissies and feminization. These are a few of my favorite things . But a place to chat with other "regular" wives would be nice.

    In my opinion this is a really great idea. I think my KH would be more receptive to joining if there was a section of the forum dedicated to other like minded keyholders.

    By the way, this thread exists mainly as BlueEyes, the site owner has long had a desire to have this place be less daunting for a vanilla FLR curious woman to visit.

    I'm wondering if this might be a solution.

    I don't envisage it as being only for women as I'm not sure that's workable unless it's done by invite only, it's more about the subject matter. It could be that threads should only be started by women, but it would not be KH only.

    If such a forum gets the go-ahead (and I for one think it's a great idea) I think the concept of threads only being started by women is ideal.

    Why not go for it .

    You have my support what about the boys that by association are involved .?
    So only posts from vanilla women or their boys as well?

    I would not think moderating will be a problem at all .

    I like the idea, but I do not think a separate section is going to work, as long as the rest of the site is visible. You get people pestering for chat, or vanilla wives accidentally viewing the site through What's New, and a zillion other ways the more kinky content of the site could come into view.

    The fix might be an intermediate level of membership (i.e. Vanilla mode membership) where the only thing you have access to is a Vanilla Forums tab. All the other tabs at the top of the screen would be suppressed for vanilla members. Regular members (who have opted into the kinky tier content), would be able to access the vanilla content through a new tab that should appear at the top of the website. Of course, vanilla members could choose to upgrade whenever they are ready, if they really enjoy the website.

    Nice ideas there @male_pet but the idea was to make it as easy to set up as possible. Setting up an intermediate membership level is a wodge of extra work, while the idea of a new section is far easier. If these Vanilla WaGs choose to venture out of the section for a browse - well, good for them.

    It's easy to deal with guys pestering for chat - just close their chat-box. Job done.

    That is getting very complicated quite frankly . Why not just use the pedestal section. ?

    The other side of the coin is why CM should like no other Web site I know control what content a member of the public can read . Sitting beside that while we do mod some stuff and personally as little as possible I don't think it's right that we should restrict what members can post .

    No it's not at all complicated.
    The Pedestal is for guys to fawn over Mistresses and Goddesses and their ilk.

    This needs to be entirely separate. And quite vanilla. The instructions on what it is for need to be clear and simple.

    There could be a rule that guys can only post if males have been invited to do so generally by the thread starter.
    Anything not warranted can be deleted on the spot by a mod without a report. Hard but fair.

    It would only work if posts in this section did not show up in the New Posts feed, but that is presumably just a box to untick in the Admin toolbox. It would have to be browsed directly from the homepage - though anyone could just bookmark a link direct to the section and just use that to enter the site from.

    Still looks easy to me.

    It would seem that a majority of people view the forum content through either "What's New" or "New Posts." I think the result is that the specific 'rooms' end up being insignificant. For myself, the only time I go into the individual rooms is when I'm starting a thread.

    This leads to people seeing a lot of content that they feel is not relevant to them or of no interest to them and from the feedback it seems the reaction can range from indifference to shock and disgust. So the need for the different rooms is still there to help people navigate the content that they enjoy the most without having to feel like they're wading through a sea of irrelevant content. But it doesn't seem to be working like that, because clicking on one thing to see all new things is just really easy and convenient.

    So what if the "What's New" and "New Posts" menu items were removed and the user experience was redesigned to allow people better control of the content they see without giving up the convenience of a 'one stop spot?' The different rooms are needed but would it be possible to make it so one could 'subscribe' to the different rooms so that when one went to one's home page/profile page, only the new things from those rooms would be seen? If someone wanted nothing to change from how they view the site now through "New Posts" they would just 'select all.' If they wanted to exclude The Powder Room then they could do that.

    Maybe the default would be having only "Announcements" selected so a new, female, and vanilla-ish user could go through and see "The Rose Garden" and say, 'Hey! Looks like the perfect spot for me!' and never need to open the wrong door and be scared off by 'mincing sissies obsessed with their clitties and wearing frilly panties' or 'pathetic pin-dick cuckolds just dying to suck BBC BULL cum out of GODDESS.' This is called 'being histrionic,' just in case someone thinks I'm sissy or cuckold bashing or kink-shaming anyone. Maybe the default would be Announcements only, and the most prominent choice would be the "The Rose Garden" or for tame-but-non-female-generated content there could be "The Front Porch." Or maybe the default could be all three. Sky's the limit.

    But seriously, having the user experience redesigned with a better focus on how people actually wish to engage with the content seems to be the direction this needs to go. Creating a new room called "The Rose Garden" is a really good idea, but it won't change anything if people go to "What's New" or "New Posts" instead, which is likely to happen.

    I'll also acknowledge that this wouldn't change the content of the replies in the threads or the trend of people veering off topic, but I think it would greatly help. It seems like I could post a recipe for peach cobbler in "The Bar" and someone would figure out how to make the discussion about what they should do about that burning sensation under their balls in the morning. It's the nature of the beast. I'm exaggerating obviously, but I think you know what I'm getting at.

    Yes good idea, as long as the content is not to heavy and can I make one suggestion and is to say that chastity as no rules and you and your partner set the rules and you need to go with what you are comfortable with.

    Agree wholly with this too. For KHs only, where they can swap ideas privately, and only on application. www.chastityforums.com has one (Keyholder's Hangout) - site is a similar type of content to CM but far fewer posts/members. I think I may have suggested this before (?on the Mods board when I was a Mod) and I was about to PM Jens suggesting it now.

    What a lovely thread, and right up my alley:)
    Sectioning is exactly the name of the game, and rooms/sections for Vanilla wives, key holders, couples, etc. etc. etc. is precisely what I am preparing for. The restructuring is devoted to the kinds of changes/improvements.
    Stay tuned for dome good news:)

    Living Curious made a good point about the number of people browsing using New Posts, 75% from the poll I did a few weeks ago.

    Is there a plan for a section filter of some sort as he suggests? Fingers crossed....:)

    I am not so sure. I got in the other day and can get in even now. But it's had a serious IT problem in that if you go in from most search engines it goes to porn/spam. There are announcements on it, but the problem's still not sorted it seems. Various similar bugs on some search facilites even when you do get in.

    Try http://www.chastityforums.com in your browser directly (not via Google etc) and you should get there.
