You must be 21 to join #BDSM_Iowa & participate in it's discussions.

The Iowa Stocks & Bonds Group endorses an IRC channel on Dalnet owned by an ISAB member. The channel is active at various times a day and often at night, with new people are dropping by all the time. Here you can have real time discussions on the topics of the list, the day, or anything else that comes up. You can chat in the room with everyone, or you can "go private" with someone that appeals to you, if you appeal to them too. Here is the chance to get to know others and let them get to know you.

*How to Find Us*

1. Your IRC Client. We recommend mIRC. It is easy and simple to use and
extremely powerful. mIRC is "shareware" with a license that's minimal. We
suggest you support the shareware concept and support the work of Khaled
Mardam-Bey and mIRC Co., Ltd. You can download a free evaluation copy of the latest mIRC at:

http://www.mirc.co.uk

2. Select a Dalnet Server from the available list. The various servers will have
varying degrees of performance, and you'll probably want to experiment with
different ones.

3. When you are connected:
click on the channel log
enter BDSM_Iowa

Channel Guidelines

1. Be Polite -- Treat others as you want to be treated. Vulgar, rude, or
offensive behavior will not be tolerated.

submissives have IRC and RT Masters or Mistresses and are forbidden to talk
privately with guests.

3. Feel free to ask questions. -- The only dumb questions are those that are not
asked!

4. We are not a pick-up channel -- Take some time and get to know us.

If you need more rules than that, you better find a Dom/me quick!
