With the arrival of the web, discussion sites, often called forums, started popping up. These were more reliable (mostly), had a better interface, and reached many more spankos. Now people were posting stories and even pictures. We chatted in real time, privately and in groups, via AOL amd Yahoo. We started talking about a community of spankos. Groups formed around specific interests and locales.
Next came MySpace. It's easy to forget how dominant this social media platform was for a short time in the mid-2000s. It gave everyone the ability to create their own page and publish their own content to the world. This concept further evolved with the rise of blogging. Blogger and Wordpress begat Twitter and Tumblr as full length posts were supplanted by micro-blogging. And on we go into multiverse and beyond...
But what became of the humble chat? I learned recently that spanko chat is still alive and appears to be thriving at a site called Discord. When I visited, I found they have 54 servers (their term for forums) dedicated to spanking. Each has a different theme and membership. The topics range from bratting (imagine that?) to various roleplays to spanking chess to serious punishment to all manner of silliness. There are also servers aimed at meeting potential partners, gaming, writers, spanking techniques, littles, wedgie lovers, and furries. Yes, its coverage seems quite comprehensive.
Spanko chess? Really. King's Knight takes Queen's petticoats. This could take a while.
So here's another resource for spankos who want to meet like-minded people from other parts of our big, beautiful, diverse community.
