Thunder et al, should we start a Clamper's Forum?

That sounds like a lot of work for Thunder, and we know he is a lazy SOB.

Extreme PE

Yeah, but we still love you.

Nah, I don’t think it’d be a lot of work ;)

I agree, Thunder is a lazy SOB…

Why is everyone always going on about advanced forums… In the past few years this place has been on the go, we’ve never needed one… and the point is what is considered NOT extreme?

Hanging weights off your dick?
Forcing huge amounts of blood into it when jelqing?

It all carries a risk, and people just have to be warned of the dangers and then allowed to get on with it…

Do we not all live in enough of a nanny state as it is??

:easy:

There ya go Nine

Well, another point is that the clamping info is at present right there on the main Forum where every Newbie can see it. I go to the trouble of talking about how dangerous it is with every post, but this is a pain in the butt, and others don’t do it. If it had its own area, it would be easier to put a big warning sign on it - or restrict access - or something, I don’t know. The way it is now is certainly not keeping Newbies from clamping.

Now what Thunder said about not peeling one theme after another off of the Main Forum is true. There wouldn’t be much left. I thought, however, that clamping is SO specific (like pumping), and so dangerous when done wrongly, that it might have merited a specialized area.

I vote no because I am an ass kisser.

I think we should combine some of these ideas for an advanced PE forum.

The idea of a probationary period is good whereas a person joining the forum won’t be allowed to view the advanced forum until 120 days is up and they are evaluated by suitable vets. I’d be glad to help out, even if it means a lot of work deciding whether or not a person is ready to do some advanced techniques. No matter what, the only person who can say they are ready for such exercises is the person themself, but we can filter the amount of unnecessary injuries if we decide for ourselves what info they have access to.

Hell, there is one member here who bought a Bib a year ago. I got a PM from him saying the hanger was still in the box underneath his bed.

Lets keep it all as simple as we can. The main forum needs something to keep it going if we separated every little PE exercise into it’s own forum main would soon die.

I’m not so sure the PE world is ready for a clamping forum just yet, partly because of what Dino says above but more because the clamps are new. People have been jelqing, pumping and hanging for years. Even though Ulis have been around a while CableClamps have not. If Thunder and the mods were to decide to go with all the aggravation it takes to open another forum, I’d rather see it on Penile Surgery or Advanced Methods. I’ve always felt we need a forum for Advanced PE. I worry a lot about some newbie reading one of my clamping threads then hurting themselves with a clamp. I never write a thread about the aggressive workouts I do without warnings, lots of warnings. But that won’t stop them anymore than it stopped me. Problem is the warnings actually make the routines more tempting to these newcomers. I thought about not posting at all for a while just to let all this sudden interest in clamping blow over, but the truth is, I’m making some incredible gains here lately, and I honestly feel that the gains are coming from clamping, and I feel I have an obligation to pass this news on to the group. I just wish there was someway to pass it on to the vets without the Noobs seeing it. I have done this to some extent. I just don’t have time to PM everybody

Yes, Girtha, you are one of the reasons I’m clamping and making my first girth gains - fast ones. Dangle

BG,

I understand your concern. I do some forms of aggressive pumping which I can control with no resulting donuts and some clamping, but I hesitate to post much on them only to have newbies experiment too early and abuse their members.

I learned a lot about pumping from vets like you and Avocet. In the beginning I stayed with the Sticky thread, 101 for a long time: But began to push the envelope early. Luckily I survived, however as a newbie I can assure you I suffered through my share of doughnuts, loss of sensitivity and even a mild thrombosis, and I can also assure you that I never once hesitated to abuse the pump just because pumping vets had warned against it. It was only when my dick grew too sore to pump did I slow down. It was only by my own experimentation and hours of reading and trying anything and everything new that looked good in theory (inner-tubes, condoms, hydro-pumping, long thin tubes short fat tubes) that I slowly learned to weed out the stuff that didn’t work and hold to the things that did. Only then could I use the pump aggressively without harm. Today I do some pretty advanced pumping spending sometimes 3 hours or more in the tube at unsafe pressures. I warn newbies against this, but you know they will try it anyway, when they read guys pump like that and get away with it. They never stop to conceder it took us a lot of conditioning to get where we are today. I never get a doughnut anymore even with those aggressive pump sessions, simply because I have learned how to jelq the tube, how to use visual aids, vibrators, and drugs to stay hard in the tube during those marathon sessions. But mostly I can get away with this kind of pumping because my tunica has become tough as steel. Maybe why I can’t stretch anymore erect length out of it. But I see these noobs doing the same things now with clamping. All we can do is warn them. They have to pay their dues like we have and the stubborn ones may just have learn the hard way.
