The site it's self hasn't given me any new information I didn't know already. The academy seemed a bit difficult to navigate. The story division is very easy to navigate.
As far as the other Dom's here on this site. I find the ones who actively post to the boards to be rather level headed and give good advice.
I consider my self new to the lifestyle cause I have only been active for the past five years. With three years of reading everything from erotica to non-fiction documentries about BDSM that I could find.
One thing that I feel might make the Dom's more approachable is some sort of activities that we have carnal knowledge of listed in the public profile. When I say carnal knowledge, I am talking experience of more than one year doing that activity.
