and what's bdsm?
BDSM: Bondage & Discipline / DOMINATION & submission / Sadism & Masochism
DOM = DOMINANT
sub = submissive
in sims online you meet other people ie real players so you know... you can do stuff.
here is something you can read about sims online:
The Alphaville Herald, a webzine devoted to The Sims Online, runs an interview with Mistress Maria LaVeaux and her slave Toy. "They discuss their pre-Alpha careers as cyber-escorts in other TSO cities, their arrival in Alpha, and their introduction when Lady Julianna called Mistress LaVeaux to mediate a dispute between two Doms in the Alphaville BDSM community. They discuss the practice of Gor, its culture, history and language (as well as the fictional/literary origins of Gor), and explain the ways in which it differs from other forms of BDSM. They explain how Gor is a projection of their inner selves and is not inherently wedded to any set of doctrines and they reject the claims of some vocal Alphaville residents that they are a BDSM cult." (Link snagged from Boing Boing.)
