Here, here, I miss the old days too. Oh, and I cleaned out my message box...sorry about that.
So it's been well over a decade since the sexyboards went the way of the dinosaurs and in that vacuum what has risen up? It seems like there are so many prolific sites nowadays, with blogs and tumblrs and even twitter I can't seem to find any trace of a home for this fetish that is erotic combat anywhere.
It's not that it stopped or doesn't exist, with ultimate surrender I think if anything it's gone more mainstream--to an extent--but all that's left is Seaking's site, from the old days, and...my stupid little yahoo club. Is there nowhere else to go? If Yahoo decides to shut down the groups or I just get a life and move on, what happens to this little community of people who enjoy reading amateur stories? I don't even see much of this fetish on literotica but for me it was the feedback that really made it special; that made you feel connected. Yes there's thousands of forums in this modern technological day but a simple google search reveals about one or two other forums but these seem to be heavily monitored and lack the freedom to post actual stories.
Any feedback or input would be appreciated as it feels rather empty in what was once a vibrant online community.
Even with the return of Cage, which we all are greatly thankful for, I haven't even seen Mikejv in about a year--and I think this was his idea. Maybe some of us got old and moved on, grew up, or met some other fat but surely there has to be a new generation that feels the urge we've all had for this fetish.
Maybe because it's modern days they can watch endless videos rather than read, and more power to that, but I get more out of a single story than I ever could a twenty minute video clip.

I guess I'm glad my group has an actual following and people seem to like it, I know my stories suck for the most part--though I've gotten a LOT of writing done this week and am tempted to just post a new one each F'n day but I wanna save them for those weeks where nothing is "flowing" if you know what i mean...--but thankfully there are other writers who contribute. Not as many as I'd like but superdeadlyhamster is SO awesome, check out his folder in Files section man, just GREAT stuff. Says he was from the sexyboards day as a lurker. If anything I'd like to encourage people to try and write as much as possible. If you like cyberfights just try that but without all the chat dialogue, make it from your first person POV or even that awkward ass second person crap like: I slam you into the mat and you groan, arching your back.
I think thats hacky but have you seen my shit? Ugh! But yea I wish more people would try to write, as you can see my stuff is utter trash when you compare it to the goldmine that is Cage--who I thought left to do writing for a job...? But just anyone, for me, just try to write down some sexual fantasy you had. Maybe my method is weird but for me I'd just have fantasies, one of the most earliest ones I can remember was making up like pam anderson vs anna nicole smith, both in their peak at the time--cuz I'm an old fuck now--in a wrestling ring kinda throwin each other around by the hair, using pro-style moves, and of course squeezing boobs and that stuff.
Now I'm not a fan of celeb stories much but that may help some people out and I certainly won't shit on anyones writing as long as they give it a try. The one thing I abhor are whiners, I have people request stuff for me to write and I try to accomodate but I'd personally prefer they give it a try first, write out what you see in your mind, even if it's just blocky chunks like "oh she does a lot of belly punching than twists her nipples" but that just helps me stage a scene. As you can see I'm bad at dialogue and establishing any kind of plot, and very clunky about my exposition--btw I'm not fishing for compliments, I know my level of crappiness so nobody go "oh man you're not that bad" ya I know I'm not exactly writing like Tolstoy trust me I get it but overall my stuff is mediocre at BEST--but it may help to encourage new writers.
I can only assume that my theory was right about there being too much high speed internet so there's just a plethora of porn to watch nowadays--yet I still have a hard time finding SOAP videos or the prostyle Golden Girls videos on torrents--so maybe that's why nobody has any urge to read a bunch of amateurish stories. I'm just amazed there aren't like DOZENS of catfight blogs or forums given this endless supply of tumblrs and stuff.
I was half tempted to make a twitter feed just to post all these old catfight pics I've had saved over the last 15 years. Nothing original or something most of us haven't seen a million times, but I follow stuff like @ilikegirlsdaily where dudes always postin pics of hot chicks, sometimes nude, on there and think why can't i just post the old catfight pics? I don't legally own them of course but I could just tweet em out till I get a cease & desist letter...
I guess I've hammered home the point, I just get a little bummed out that ALL there seems to be is a very small handful of sites that cater to open forum chatting about this fetish; if there are more somebody please feel free to post some links as I am too lazy to do any real research.
Thanks for letting me rant,

If you ever write anything in 2nd person, I will find you and stomp a mud hole in your ass! If you have time, check out my tumblr. You might see some stuff you like. I joined Maidens-of-Mayhem. They have a 70's apartment wrestling theme that brings back some memories of you are feeling nostalgic. search my blog for "maidens-of-mayhem"
And LOL, you sound like a grumpy old man...jk

I think it is an age thing. There was a bloom of female fight writers all rooted in the Original AOL WRESTLING STORIES group. That's where I wrote Warrior Goddess... each chapter a 1500 word limit due to post limits.
Then there was alt.sex.fetish.wrestling and that gave way to the message boards. All the great writers you like might be just getting old enough to not be driven to write from lust so much as they used to.
Think about music. There are blooms of genres. Punk ect... I remember Rosamarie and Little Oral Annie's great wrestling videos for Triumph Studios.
Also, we all get tired of working hard and getting NO response - or a complaint we aren't writing enough - from people who don't contribute. It's the same of the clips boards and the art boards.
People will presume all sorts of things on the great Magic Mirror of the Net - except to be civil.
I loved this board because there were so many writers so much better than I I felt I had a milieu. Nothing lasts.
I certainly understand all of that and was unfamilair with even those works that you referenced. And I know what you mean by nothing lasts but I'm talking about some genre dying out; I mean is that what this is?
This is a fetish linked through sado masochism, surely there are young people interested in this topic? I would've thought, now given the internets global dominance that we would see a never ending surge of new writers, sure none of them can be great but at least something.
It just seems like the sites have gotten staggeringly fewer while the sheer proliferation of blogs has risen hundreds of thousands yet I would dare to say not a single one dedicated to some form of erotic female combat. It doesn't have to be a certain old porn actress or even just specifically the new brand but maybe something dealing with others who would surely discover this fetish as over powering as I, and it seems, and many others enjoy.
Even when the WWE is mainstream and they have Divas as the new center stage women wrestlers--not to mention TNA--there should at least be a bevvy of fan fiction to begin with but I only find one or two on literotica, maybe a half dozen on Seaking, myself and a few others in my club.
I recall there being so many more and true I guess with time the older writers have stopped but I am just getting into my adulthood now so I plan on being around here for awhile. This may cause some to groan but maybe I feel like the unpopular kid not invited to the party but it seems like there isn't any going on to begin with.
Pornography is now more steadily available than ever before, even on cell phones, so you can be anywhere in the world(except a dead zone) to look at any form of adult entertainment. Yet there is no influx of new talent looking to try. I would encourage anyone who wants to try to write to try their voice out. It will be awkward so maybe try emailing it to others who share your interest.
In a not-so-funny kind of way I've finally started coming out to people I know in real life, friends I've had for decades, about my hobby of writing not just erotic fiction but specifically of catfight/sexfight porn. I got a few weird looks and chuckles but the most liberating part were some of those friends quietly coming up to me to ask if they could read it. They're genuinely interested now--sad to say they don't read enough to know my stories are utter crap but they've developed a taste nonetheless--and it turns out one of my best friends has recently gotten into writing his own erotica. I made mention of my club and he had been afraid to post his story anywhere, I brought up forums and such to him but it made him uneasy. He was bashful, you see, afraid of maybe hearing his stuff wasn't so good. But while it was raw it had form to it, a basic structure.
I am obviously no english teacher as my grammar and poor punctuation--not to mention limited vocabulary--has shown but I think this real life example might possibly represent what could be happening by the thousands out in the world. That there are indeed those who are just getting into writing, whatever their specific fetish or fantasy, and I'd like to find someplace to encourage them. Maybe a site or just a general forum, perhaps a mother forum, with strings and sub strings and sub strings to those for almost every conceivable kink? From these forums there could spawn tumblr's with pics of pornographic representations or clips of individuals involved in the act that drives these fans through their unconscious daily life. I mean, I don't know about you but I spend most of my free time thinking up scenarios and characters. Maybe it's more than me just not having a life, as I freely admit to--or lack thereof--but I'm sure there are many more like me and maybe with just the right kind of site this simple act of just turning a new reader into an actual contributor could be achieved.
