BDSM Version of Lit?

[dr_mabeuse]

Was travelling and found this site:

http://www.bdsmlibrary.com/forums/index.php?

For those who don't want to make the leap, this is a site that looks amazingly similar (if not near-identical) to Literotica: a virtual clone, in all senses of the words.

Does anyone know the story on this? Is this some kind of sister site or is there some kind of generic Erotic Story Site Maker software?

Good grief! That can't just be a coincidence. Even the typefaces are the same. "Authors' Hangout" is called "Authors' Place" but everything looks just the same.

Like you said, Dr M, maybe there's some sort of spreadsheet program out there that lets a person fill in the blanks and have an instant erotic story site.

Ps. I've been toying with the idea of a "fill in the blank" boilerplate smut story. Sort of like some of those women who write one romance novel. Then they use their word processor to change it just enough, and ..voila!.. twenty books.

Wasn't there someone named "Art" who wrote (or adapted) the original software for EroticStories.Com before it was transformed into a pay-site, and Literotica.Com sprang up in ESC's place

Or did I do too much antacid during the sixties?

It's not a generic story site software, it's a generic BB/Forum software. Both sites use the vBulletin software and one of the standard color schemes it provides.

vBulletin is also used by many other sites -- many of them associated with a stories section that have a forum set aside for the author's to discuss writing and other issues.

As always, Mr Harold has the definitive answer.

I like this site. I'm excited by it.

It's kind of like the Bizarro World version of Literotica, or a Brave New World that hasn't yet been polluted by the sordid hand of man, a pristine unspoiled wonderland of chains and whips and leather codpieces.

Does anyone remember this made-for-TV movie about Earth II, an unknown planet that was directly opposite the earth but shielded by the sun, identical to our earth in every way, but different? Eveyone on earth had an exact counterpart on Earth II, and things were so similar that just as we sent our scout mission out to explore Earth II, they were sending theirs out to explore earth I?

I kind of wonder if this site might be like that, that right now Dr Mabeuse II is postingthe same identical message with the same identical typos...

Nah..

Let's send missionaries, emisaries from this enlightened site. Colonists, settlers, teachers, to bring the gift of civilization and critical perspicacity to these unenlightened heathens, ignorant even of their own lack of sin.

There was, and is, such a site as an off-shoot of Nicestories.com which posts entirely non-erotic stories.

Or did I do too much antacid during the sixties?

This also may be true. The two options in your original post are not mutually exclusive.

I volunteer!

Just let me pack my sex toys and I'll be on my way -

(You know I really want to meet that bitch sweetsubsarahh II and kick her ass!)

P.S. Thanks for the link. The place is so surreal, so dark, so - fun! (They do need to change the way to access stories, however. I'll instruct them of that on my voyage).

Yeah. I've got a few things to tell that pompous jerk Dr. Mabeuse II as well. The way he comes down on people who are just starting out as writers, the way he posts things just to hear himself talk, this feud he still has with Perdita II. He takes himself way too seriously and has too much of a fucking chip on his shoulder. And he spends entirely too much time on the boards.

I vaguely remember that TV Movie, but can't sump up the name.

In any case, since it is a BDSM site, would it not more closely resemble the counter-earth of John Norman's Gor?

If so, watch out for the long boring philosophical deserts.

Funny you should mention that film Dr M, I was explaining this film and the concept of the oposite planet to my son about a yr ago, God that's an old one, everything was reversed if I remember rightly and it cocked the space craft up, as well as nobody believing the crew's because they were clones of each other.

pops........The boring.

Right, right! I'd forgotten that. Everything was a mirror image, right? And they had some problem with parts because of this.

My hubby says the movie was "Journey to the Far Side of the Sun" - said he saw it in a theater when he was a kid.

I keep thinking that a mirror image means opposite (good/evil, pervert/non-pervert), but that isn't the case here, is it? Instead the print was backwards, body organs were on different sides, machine parts were reversed, etc.

Oh no! That is way too similar to "Star Trek" reversing the polarity!!!

well, i'm going to join.

In Superman comics there was the Bizarro world, where everything was supposed to be the opposite of the way things were on earth. Everyone on the Bizarro world had super powers, they brushed their teeth with shoe polish, shined their shoes with toothpaste, stuff like that.

Even as a kid I realized that, even though it was kind of fun, the concept of the Bizarro world had problems. What's the opposite of a car? The opposite of having a baby? And cats aren't really the opposite of dogs.

I was very serious about my comic books.

[Guest]

But on Bizarro World didn't all the men look like Superman and all the women Lois Lane? Verrrrry strange place. And Bizarro was such a sad character.

My husband was just as serious about his comic books as you, by the way, though he says he was partial to the Green Lantern.

Through brightest day and darkest night,
no evil shall escape my sight.
For those who worship evil's might,
beware my power, Green Lantern's Light.

... And cats aren't really the opposite of dogs. ...

Tell that to my cats!

 

[Guest]

Yes, our cats, too. They would be most offended to be called a dog.

Though we do have one big black fat kitty who often lays on his back, all four paws waving in the air. When I pat his furry tummy I tell him he's acting just like a puppy.
