What a good friggin' domain name they've got themselves here. Bondage.com can only be about one thing, so don't come crying to me when their disturbing imagery has left you crying like a baby in the corner. Just don't poop your pants and we'll be okay here. Actually, the site surprised me a bit in the tour in that they seem to be half paysite, half community. Besides content, they offer some personals, live chat, forums, and more. $20 a month isn't too bad of a deal here, hopefully they've got a lot of cool stuff inside.
Once inside, there's a lot of black and purple going on. The website isn't real glossy, as it's mostly text-based for navigation. They have quite a few sections to check out including personals, images, video, words (stories, articles, etc.), talk, and more. You can browse through a lot of their stuff as a guest to give you a good idea what they offer before you pony up the cash.
Within images, there are a ton of options for browsing the site. You can browse through just the new stuff, by keyword, by file set, user's favorites, most popular, and via a search tool. In the end the biggest deal is just how much stuff they have only, over 70,000 pics I believe! They all come in two sizes, though those vary a lot depending on where the content is from. Quality is okay, but nothing great here. Their video section is made up of third-party links only unfortunately, which is a shame.
Their forums are very active. All 13 topics on the first page here have been posted to within the last 50 minutes or so. The live chat is just as busy and active if you prefer that. The personals section has over 300,000 profiles online right now, and there's some good extra stuff there as well (essays, checklists to let others know what you're into, pictures, audio, etc.). A new story is put up almost every day, and the advice columns are pretty active as well. There's a place to catch up on your BDSM knowledge, and a store if you have some extra money to burn.
Basically, we've got a pretty nice community going on here. The 70,000+ pics don't hurt anything either, but I wouldn't say that's the best reason to join this one. Here you can immerse yourself in the BDSM lifestyle with others who feel similarly as you, and all for a price that's not too bad. As far as content goes, this site is just okay (especially lacking videos which hurts). But it's still a good site despite that, especially for true fans of this stuff. Definitely worth a look if you haven't seen it already.
