To those coming from getDare ....

Hello friends,

Welcome

Can I offer you a drink? Maybe a hot beverage? (I learned from Big Bang Theory that when somebody is upset, you offer them a hot beverage).

I know you are feeling lost right now, but I am so happy to have you here. I know things look a bit different, and it may not feel like home, but I want you to make yourself comfortable and settle in. You are welcome here!

If you need anything, please feel free to reach out to myself directly, or any of our mod team. There is also a whole section where you can post suggestions and give us feedback. We are still new and growing and we take your feedback seriously. @Inkwarden has been chained to a desk in a small room for the last 9 months to make our dreams of a Kinky Wonderland come true.

The untimely death of getDare

Let's address the elephant in the room - getDare is dead.

I am SO sorry for your loss. This was so sudden and terrible. I know that a lot of you are feeling heartbroken, sad, or regretful. You may have lost contact with friends, and lost all of your saved content. That really sucks and nothing that I can say will help you, other than I understand and I am here for you.

I went through my own mourning period when I lost getDare 9 months ago. Thankfully some of those wounds have healed and we have started to create a wonderful community of our own.

Kinky Wonderland was born

9 months ago, a lot of shit happened on getDare and I left (and then was removed as a mod and banned - if you want the full story, I might be willing to share later). It was really difficult, but I had been imagining a new kink community for years and this was a great opportunity to create it. Thankfully, the amazing @Inkwarden offered to help me make that vision come true, and thus Kinky Wonderland was born.

We are still new. We are still growing, learning and changing. Please let us know if there is something that you are missing from getDare, and we will do our best to help you find it, or see if we can do something to create it.

Please read our rules and check out the description of our forums if you are feeling a little lost.

I have tried to make things a little more organized, a little easier to navigate, and keeping the highlights of things that we loved about getDare - the requests, truths, add threads, chat room, and lounge, while also creating some new things, like our voice chat room, or the anonymous whispers section.

Where to start

If you are just joining, please take a look through our rules. Some of them might be a bit different from the ones you are used to. Two notable differences are that we have freed the nipple! and we also allow editing of your posts indefinitely. We also have a handy little guide to describe the forums and sections.

After you have filled out your profile (check out our flags option!), you might want to use the signature links forum to post information to link in your signature, or maybe you want to try and introduce yourself in the roll call forum.

Depending on what you are hoping for, there are sections for forums, blogs, personals, media, and stories.

If you are feeling extra social, come hang out in the chat room with us!

Happy exploring

Again, I am so happy to have you here. I have high hopes that we can create an amazing, fun, inclusive kink community and YOU are a big part of that!

Stay kinky friends!

UPDATE:
I have made two new posts that I wanted to share

Hey Butterfly,

this is amazing! Your words truly helped. I was very sad of the loss of all the content, dares, storries, etc on getdare...
But I have to say, at a first look at the changes, this site seems even better to me than gd, while keeping everything that made gd special. I love nipples and I love the possibility to keep the first post editable, to update rules and statistics... What a great start. A new chapter begins.

Oh by the way, I was able to save a few (not much) content of gd from the web cache. If sb is interested or looking for something feel free to contact me

Aww thank you, that means a lot. I am so sorry for your loss. I hope we can make this place an even better space to help fill that void.

Yay! That will be helpful to people for sure.
I would do anything if i could save my blogposts. I tried with the archive thing, but my blog was not public as far as i know. I have no idea how to get it. :cry:

I am so sorry. I loved reading your blogs. I know it is a huge loss but I hope you consider doing some new writing here to share with us.
 
I'm wondering if anybody knows the reason why it was shut?
I am going to post my own getDare story which might shed a bit of light but nobody had any notice, not even the current mods.
I believe he just didn't have the passion for it anymore. It was rude the way it was done.
 
Eagerly waiting for the same, I'm also curious about who had the complete ownership besides the moderators who managed the forums, was it some mod who owned the domain and server etc?
It was one person only. His username was Depp. The mods just worked their asses off for free (might be bitter after doing that for 9 years).
 
Hey! Glad to see a bunch of familiar names. I know over on getdare we had tags for posts, is there any possibility those can be setup here for easier searching?
 
Hi Butterfly

Just a brief thank you for carrying on the spirit of GD. I had a lot of great experiences with a lot of great people on there over the last couple of years, so I was sad to see it brought to an end - especially so abruptly.

I’m very excited to explore the community that you’ve created and to see what comes next.

I completely understand that at some point you just don't feel like doing it anymore. I used to run a forum myself, and at some point I didn't want to do it anymore, so I looked for and found a successor in the community.

I just can't understand why he didn't at least inform us beforehand. Or why he isn't giving us 24 hours to save our stuff and let our contacts know how to stay in touch.

It feels like someone burned my diary and locked me out. Really not nice.

But yes, it doesn't help, the shock still runs deep, but even that will pass eventually.
 
I am a getdare refugee. I am a bit heartbroken because I was in the middle of a sequence of dares in private message with someone. I wish there were some way we could find one another again. Thank you for creating this space. the getdare refugees will appreciate it!
 
Hi Butterfly, thank you for setting this up, I have been off an on Getdare for a long time but hadn't been on in a few days and was so shocked today when it wasn't there. I am really happy to see that you have got this off the ground and hopefully it will now thrive even more. Looking forward to spending time here with you all
 
Hello everyone and especially to Butterfly! I am very glad this space exist I would really like if we can grow it together! I just found out getdare was shut down and I can't say how surprised I was after login off for the holidays and coming back to it now gone. So thank you Butterfly for setting this place up and you can except my help on helping you grow it. As for the others I don't know if you remember me from there (my username was the same) but for any that do I must say I am back! And if you are one of the people we used to talk and play there please feel welcome to cary on here!

I totally understand. I offered to help take over multiple times because I was incredibly invested. It really sucks that everything just shut down without any warning. I promise that I would never do that here. If you invest in the site with your time and energy, there will always be the opportunity to save your content before it disappeared. And I would do whatever I could to find somebody else to run it if I couldn't.
 
Thinking about which poll option had most votes the last time I saw it before the site closed, it might not be a good idea to create it again 🫣😅
Or hey - are you daring me to do it? 😜
I am absolutely daring you to do it!

I am so sorry that happened to you. I hope you can come across them somewhere, maybe even here!

Well, uhm, ok, dare accepted 🫣

And thank you again for offering this amazing place to all of us 🤩
 
Where would be a good place to start a forum for finding previous getdare users we were communicating with? I suspect I'm not the only person who would be interested in this.

Posting something in the parlor could be good. That is basically what was called the "lounge" on getDare
