There are so many Gorean sims and at times and just to make fun I call the number of sims to be as high as the number of goreans..:)...it is rare for a gorean sim without any event occuring to have more than 10 people present...but EVERY gorean sim I ve seen is so uniquely shaped and so beautifully made that I feel real loss for a sim closing...every day new sims are opened up so full of hopes for a better rp and a truer gorean life. And on walking them you breathe their beauty and you breathe their makers' taste and the love for every beautiful detail. Cities so rich and houses created so lovely, high mountains with waterfalls, deserts and deep dark forests with swamps...every kind of landscape can be found on Gor, so beautifully made. However there are so MANY gorean sims that cannot be entered for roleplay by one or the other party. A Freewoman without companion is threatened with the collar by the rules at times, Talunas are frequently not admitted. A lot of places can only be visited once: A girl on Gor always lives under the threat of a collar and a moment of carelessness can be the end of her freedom. Estimating the number of Kajirae on Gor I believe their percentage is far higher than in the books and it is barely understandable why a city collars more and more women except to promote traffic. There are so many kajirae in some places, kneeling and hoping someone picks them up and gives them a reason to weave their magic of love, to be cared for and to be protected that I see no other reason for it. The submission of a girl is special...she devotes her life to bring love and tenderness, why make her one of a thousand? I truly believe this obsession to collar more and more is a result of greediness without any need. Once collared many girls kneel in remote places and wait and suffer for no one needs them at all and they soon enter 'bored in gored.' It is for this reason that I appeal to the Free population of Gor: THINK before you collar someone! A collar is a commitment! Do you really want to care for her? Do you really want to protect her? Will you take the time and let her weave her love for you and enchant you with sweet dances and tender love in the furs? Do you want to train her and give her tasks to do? It is you who will from now on be responsible for her! Do you feel that call in you? Then collar her! But a collaring just to push a girl down on her knees and then forget her is sad... Larah

TRADE! a good reason against the use of Gorean Meters on your sim. now and then a Sister is captured in a city that is near to impossible to raid without considerable forces and ensuing drama and calling it all invalid or there is simply not much time...in these cases it is a good idea to dress as a FreeWoman of Gor, the symbol of diplomacy. However, according to their role they always have to rely on the honourable behaviour of the gorean world towards her. And I do. I do not wear my bow and feel really helpless, left without option but hoping for the best in negotiations. The last time I did this, I was asked for rp- server goods in brackets...((we only trade for rp server goods!))...which makes me wonder if that can be proper rp...generally rp works without brackets so the question should not come up at all...but it more and more does and it spreads like a disease over gorean- metered gor...over time these items concentrate on the large tribes and groups of course since its them who rarely need them but often get them...trades on the other hand are more frequently needed by the smaller groups since their means to raid are limited...so the meter promotes larger groups on Gor who gain double means to keep their members safe. Groups of this size dominate Gor. However the battles between them are marked by severe lag and not much rp since the battle rages on and on because there are still captives of one or the other side until both sides declare it invalid for whatever reason and everyone walks home. It is this type of Gor the meter privileges. It may be a good reason for using a different Meter as we all want to promote the diversity of Gor that we all like and that is so unique for Gor in SL.

Ushindi!!
a dramatic landscape…a cuddlish camp and a fireplace right at the entrance to sit and meet and talk, the jungles are hot and thriving with the intensity typical for a life on gor, always struggling for survival
a bit confusing for some goreans is the absense of a safezone even for shoppers…however we respect the shoppers as an unwritten policy…they are safe and welcome to join in after having a look at the wares…
now and then someone asks me if Talunas were lesbians, living with so many and so close together...let me ascertain without doubt: WE ARE NOT! the reason for us to band together is the omnipresent threat: every woman on Gor can be collared and enslaved anytime! Talunas defend and fight for their freedom, remember we are smaller and weaker, we can t even successfully wield a gorean sword! We love our freedom, we live together, we hide in the jungles, we comfort each other so far out from the civilized world where we grew up, its just the natural thing to do in an extreme situation like ours!
Sometimes we are confused with the native population that lives in the jungles: We do NOT originate in the jungles, we are from the north as you can easily see by our fair complexion and we do NOT use the language of the jungle population, we speak gorean, as Tarl Cabbot comfirmed in his parchments. Its because we hide, we survive on our own, we are not born here, and yes...we suffer from homesickness...:(...
but now we re happy and thankful...thank you sweet Sas and your Sana Askari for your loving hospitality, thank you for giving us shelter!!! *scratches her head...then checks her fingernails for fleas*...:P~~~~
Due to the absence of the Priest Kings ((Admins)), Vampires, Angels, motorcycle racers and explorers of all kinds enrich the life on gor and are a funny challenge for quick witted goreans…priest kings asleep...*runs a tender hand over a sleeping giant insect- like head..whispers…”dreams, sweet dreams…”…hoping for an air conditioned house with a pool…*
however we are out and about a lot...travelling in swift small sailing boats all across the Thassa…helping out Sisters all over gor…in the Sardar mountains, in Aira, in Midgaard, in Fina and in places I don t remember the name of…
we were scouting out BSI, sending an arrow with a message, we were looking into hidden caves and found the trap of a witch in Aria…
we sparred with Sisters all over Gor and we attended a glorious theatre play in Perrywinkle…
our fireplace is open for all, everyone is welcome, our defense is the density of the jungles, not walls nor traps…its gor…and we SHOUT out our joy for life, our tender love in the huts at night and our beautiful kajirae serving us in unimaginable sweetness…
visiting kajirae from all the Passion sims enrich our storytelling around the nightly fires…sweet life in the jungles…purrrrrrrrrrrrrs…
