I've been invited to participate by my dear (if somewhat estranged) friend, cymbidia.
One of the wonderful things I've noticed about the BDSM board is that not only do you all share the pleasure/pain of the physical, but there appears to be a sharing and genuine caring for the hopes and dreams and the losses and sadness of the other members of the board.
I spent half a day or so reeling from the loss of one of my stories--as in the dog ate my wp file--and so I came here to space out for a while.
I soon discovered that other people were hurting from lost relationships and broken trusts, or celebrating little victories in another person's life. This was special in a way I've not seen elsewhere at Lit or at other sites (save one site which was totally abandoned not long after cymbidia left it).
As for the drama aspect of such posts--I don't think people here should worry too much about what the others think. From what I've seen, most everyone here is far more supportive than let's say on the general board or the other specialized boards.
So let me say, I'm not sure what I expected--although I did sit down on a large tube of KY that someone had left on a chair, and when was the last time all these sheets were washed? But for the most part, you folks are quite fascinating. You bring out the latent (hah!) voyeur in me.
Thank you, Lyssa
