Craislist a Good Idea?

NO! You never know what you're getting on the internet. That person may be legit, but could also be "Chester the Molester," or "Jack the Ripper." You are better off sticking with people you know.

Couldn't agree more. If ever in doubt, visit your local police station and ask one of the detectives. You'll get an earful we can't print here. BTW, did you know the sex slave trade has boomed recently?

I always think when this questions comes up that, yes you do always have to be completely careful with talking to and potentially meeting up with people in person that you meet online. However, there is a simple solution to at least finding out if a person is who they say they are e.g. gender, age, looks etc. although not their personality so you do still have to be careful you aren't meeting a psychopath. Just start a video chat or Skype conversation with them. You'll then know if they are in deed saying the truth

As a former cop and then a prosecutor and judge, I can assure you that sometimes the worst people have the smoothest line --- e.g. read about any of the serial killers like Dalmer who specialized in young boys. He even had a kid tied up in the apartment and convinced two police officers the kid was just his bondage sex partner. Turned out he later ate the kid. Please, please be careful --- good readers and authors here ae hard enough to find, we don't want to have any go missing (permanently that is).

You have to weigh the best and worst case scenarios here. That means the question becomes "is the potential for meeting a girl for a tie up worth the other potential, of being killed/injured/etc." I should hope something like a possibly one-off tie up session isn't that highly graded in your mind, but that's something you would have to decide ultimately.

"EVERYONE who uses the internet to meet up with other people WILL do horrific things to you, there's no other logical opinion", said everyone, wrongly.

That said, craigslist will just be full of horny guys looking to get laid, same as everywhere else with a view to casual meetups. It's the law of the internet really. The suply of guys>>>>>>>>>>>The suply of women. Don't bother using it.

I've come to realise that the majority of people *think* they want to meet up with a stranger for bondage only for that day (of said meeting) to arrive and for them to panic blindly and not go through with it, realising that in all probability they were just bored and or/horny when arranging it. Just be patient.

Go to Wikipedia and look up George Weber (radio personality). He was murdered in his own house in March, 2009 after meeting someone on Craigslist.

If you're in the U.S. you may have heard him on local radio in NYC, LA, Denver, San Francisco, San Diego, Allentown, PA and coast to coast as a newscaster on the ABC Radio Network.

I guess you wouldn't cross a road then? Because you know someone did that once and died. Yeah it's unfortunate but these events make the news because of their rarity. If they happened every day nobody would make anything of it.

I only reply to this because the conclusion is reached by using the fallacy of reductio ad absurdum or reduction to absurdity. There are 23 fallacies in logic and this one is most often used.
First, the young people here are not chickens,
Two, they are not crossing the road.
So the connection fails and so does the logic of the syllogism.

I might refer the reader to my above remarks that these are not "one off" cases but examples only of literally hundreds of injured or missing young people each year.
If your new contact invites you for dinner then, Please make sure you are not it.

Above all folks, err on the side of safety.

But by that reasoning literally meeting with anybody from the Internet would lead to problems. What about dating sites? Or other forums for interest such as sports? People meet up with others for contact about more than just bondage and sex.

I think the main thing is yes it is a real risk that could happen and you have to be 100% certain on who you are meeting and what you will be doing. If you are truly worried tell someone that you are meeting someone online and where you are meeting them/how long you will be there for. You don't need to tell them why you are meeting up with someone but then at least one/some/hundreds of people know what you are doing and where you will be.

Make sure you identify the frauds. You know people who say things like:

- We can only do it my way
- Refuse to provide a face picture
- Does not reply for a ridiculous long time
You will have to subdue me to restrain me. I been a bad boy so make sure you torture me too with anything but pain.

No it's not Scott unless one takes the proper procedures and has a plan unlike you.

Talk to the person you plan to meet for a couple of months and see where things go then each of you arrange a buddy system where you tell someone where you're going including address, skype/yahoo/whatever and give them your personal information, how long you'll be gone and times which they or you can check-up like every morning and every night and if not assume something has gone wrong and they can call the cops.

Cregslist is not a good way to meet someone cause you never know who's hiding behind their internet persona and if you don't have some kind of plan it could lead to a real kidnap situation.

Arguing anecdotally is not logically valid. It's like saying, "My granny smoked all her life and she lived to 95." Yes, she might well have done; but it is still more likely that people who smoke heavily will suffer certain health problems than those who don't.

if you're gonna meet someone i'd get to know them very well before doing it. i met someone irl (wasn't for tugs though) but i knew them for like 3 years. not saying you have to know them that long, you just need to know them well. i obviously didn't have any doubts they were who they said they were. if you have doubts then you shouldn't meet them.

yes, there's risks in everything. i would rather be ran over than meet someone who's going to hurt me and then probably kill me.

just use common sense and be careful and everything should be ok.
i'm 17, male, a bit of a computer geek, and love to be tied up :D

Sometimes you can get surprised in a bad way even by people you've known (and thought you could trust) for years. It's happened to me; the last time I had tugs with anyone ended up badly that way, and ti was someone i'd known for several years.
Finding a TUGs partner thru Criagslist or any other online service is just as risky as a game of Russian Roulette!
Don't do it!!!

I've heard far too many accounts of bad things happening in situations like this, and a good portion of those have Craiglist as the place it started, so I'm incredibly relieved you've decided against it.

Scott, I have to say, yours is an incredibly fortunate situation. Honestly, as Jason Toddman said, it's kind of like saying "Playing Russian Roulette is completely safe! I did it once and the chamber was empty!"

My advice would be to try to find a situation where you can do TUGs over the internet, such as via Skype or another instant messaging client. That way, you still get the thrill of being controlled, but you're also safe from any physical danger.

Well if you want one dude's expert opinion on the subject the answer would be a resounding NEGATIVE nixing the whole idea of posting an advert for a potential bondage partner with Craigslist. I don't know what country you're from but here in the states such a post would never get passed the moderators with Craigslist for approval here. You should go with your original instincts in meeting someone with a similar interest online by finding some other website, possibly, a chatline that specializes in this sort of thing...me, personally, I jokingly but fondly refer to it as kinky escapades. Anyway, that's my considered opinion...for what it's worth. K.O.
