Comment Etiquette

First, apologies for putting up a new item that isn’t actually a sex story. Rest assured, our next post will be crammed to the gunwales with the fine lesbian content you’ve come to expect from us.

What’s this all about, then? Basically, we at Juicy Secrets thought it was a good time for something you’ve not encountered before at the site: guidelines for you kind souls who take the time to leave comments for our stories.

Note: if you never leave commentary, and have no intention of ever doing so, you might as well blow this post off altogether and seek out something with more hot lesbian action (otherwise known as “everything else we’ve got here.”) The rest of you, pull up a chair – let’s have a little chat.

At least four times since the founding of Juicy Secrets, I’ve left blog posts about the comment section, asking our readers to take a moment to say a little something about the stories we print. Or a lot of something, if you prefer. Your opinions mean the world to us – in fact, we see them as a reward to our writers, editors and staff for the hard work that goes into making this site what it is.

Sometimes, though, we get comments that are, er, less than ideal, occasionally irksome, even downright infuriating. Our objective with this post is to address that issue, and let you know how we’d prefer you good people conduct yourselves when engaging with us and other readers. So… here goes.

Juicy Secrets Comment Etiquette

  1. First, any mention, promotion, endorsement, encouragement or solicitation of real-life sex between adults and children is strictly forbidden. We traffic in fantasy, not child abuse.
  2. While we certainly welcome and encourage comments from men, please remember that this is a lesbian-oriented site. Guys, we really, really don’t need to hear about your throbbing stiffies, massive loads of jizz, masturbatory techniques, or whatever heterosexual antics you’d like to get up to with the characters in the stories. You wouldn’t go into a lesbian bar and indiscriminately flash your wang at the ladies, right?
  3. Juicy Secrets isn’t a hook-up site, though we do provide the means for readers to communicate, should they care to. Our Stay in Touch page is given over to socializing; please confine such activities to there. If you encounter someone you’d like to get to know on a different page, ask them to meet you at Stay in Touch.
  4. That said, please remember that no one who attempts to communicate via the Stay in Touch page is owed a response, so please refrain from scolding fellow Juicy Secrets denizens because they didn’t email you back.
  5. A related point: if you are a woman, gay or otherwise, who wants to make her email address public but is NOT interested in exchanging pleasantries with men, please say so in the first place, thereby avoiding frayed feelings. (I’m assuming we have zero men here who don’t wish to hear from women.)
  6. We can’t always require civilized behavior… but we strongly encourage it. Strive for politeness; refrain from flinging insults around. If a comment gives you offense, we suggest taking time to cool off before you reply, instead of charging ahead when your dander is up. Remember: if you respond with abuse, you’re wrong even when you’re right… but if the other guys are the ones spewing rage, they’re making themselves into bigger jerks than your scornful reply ever could.

We reserve the right to flush any comments that violate these guidelines, so either exercise good judgment when making your opinion public, or make your violations so entertaining that we couldn’t bear to lose them. Thanks for reading.

    Very happy to see this. I have read some crazy things in the replies.

  3. Kinkychic & kinkys_sis says:

    We couldn’t agree more and quite pertinent of late.

    Fortunately, it has only been the few that have spoiled what is an otherwise friendly site.

  8. Powertenor246 says:

    Message received 5X5. Acknowledged.

  9. Pensive says:

    A very well reasoned post. Shame it’s even needed tho.

  10. kinkychic says:

    The ‘poor’ and ‘awful’ ratings given by two numpties to this very well-put piece show that there are at least two of the type we really don’t want here.

  11. Carol Anne says:

    I agree kinkychic, if they think this is awful then why are they here in the first place. Thanks JetBoy for taking the time to bring up this subject. Lets all enjoy these great stories, as the writers all spend a lot of time preparing them. If you don’t like them, then leave!

  12. Jake says:

    Etiquette #6
    Nice going, Kinky chic has just shown what intolerance for diversity of thought.

  13. Cassandrablue says:

    I have to agree about everything, especially about replying “while your dander is up”.

    Narcissists often say vile things just to get a rise out of everyone and sometimes the best defense against such behavior is to totally ignore it.

  14. NiKylie says:

    Jolly good

  15. Aidanmoore24 says:

    Two things, I hope I have not fallen ito the wrong category and apologizes if that’s the case. If not, would it be possible to point one out. So we know what to look for and bring it to your attention.

  16. Captain Midnight says:

    I have commented on some stories which had really bothered me. I hope what I say is not a breach of etiquette. I really enjoy most of the stories I read.

    • JetBoy says:

      Not at all. A breach of etiquette would be to be really, really nasty about it and sling invective around like a monkey throwing shit. If you have issues with a story, feel free to say so.

  17. Salmario says:

    Fair comments all, and a timely reminder to everyone who visits this site. Hopefully, this will help to engender greater respect for everyone or at least reduce the the flow of tasteless remarks that some people have been posting.

  18. Keiko says:

    It is the safe community (and the stories) that make this place so special… Thank you!!

  19. Zelda says:

    Amen and are in agreement with you!
    Thanks for the posting and thank you for a beautiful site

    • No One says:

      You say this, and yet you immediately go about breaking the first rule. Please be more mindful of your comments if you want to stay around here.

      • kinkychic says:

        This comment needs some context. As it stands it doesn’t mean anything.

        • No One says:

          Well, the important thing is that it will mean something to the person I was replying to, isn’t it? But in short, the user posted a different comment (now deleted) on another page, and it violated rule #1 above.

          For the record (because I suppose this *does* need context), I’ve taken on the responsibility of assisting with comment moderation here on JS recently, with JetBoy’s blessing. So this is not me just being a dick for no reason. 😉
