The SL Enquirer: adults

SPOTLIGHT ON DARKHEARTS STRIP & ESCORTS

For many who have experienced Second Life and explored the many sides of the grid, it is no surprise that the adult industry is still very much alive. Unlike the gritty poor taste sex clubs of the past things are evolving in Second Life and becoming more accepted in the mainstream virtual world community. Many of the residents who have experience in virtual adult play have become professional and know the ins and outs of what adventure seekers are really looking for. It’s not about cheap one-night stands anymore, it’s about exploring those fantasies and learning things about themselves that add to their personal happiness and may even enhance their real-world sex lives and relationships. There’s no room for shame when adults want to play and explore, as long as they aren't breaking laws or harming others in the process, so with that said, we would like to introduce you to Master Paimon and Darkhearts Strip & Escorts Club.

Interview with Master Paimon

SLE: Hi Master Paimon, it is a pleasure to meet you and learn more about you and what you do in Second Life. Can you tell us a little about you, where are you from and how did you discover Second Life?

Master Paimon: Hello! My name is Master Paimon, I am 37 IRL. I've been on Second Life only about a year after hearing about it for almost 10. A few friends had joined and had been encouraging me to as well. I finally broke down and joined, and now I'm hooked lol.

SLE: Well it seems it took you a bit to “come to the dark side” but glad you did. Would you consider Second Life an extension of your real life or just a game to explore your interests?

Master Paimon: It's funny, I love Second Life because it allows people the freedom to be their true selves without fear of judgments or drama. I've always lived my life that way, and im happy that the platform can give a taste of that to those who simply cannot because of RL work concerns, family issues, etc. For me, I live my life much as I do on SL (Minus some of the cool buildings of course).

I am polyamorous and goth in my real life, and I really don't care what anyone thinks about how I live my life. Its mine. It's short. Live the life you want to both on SL, and hopefully in real life as well.

SLE: Having the ability to be who you are without any judgment is always an alluring factor people have found in Second Life. So tell us, adult entertainment is big business in Second Life. It allows adults to explore their sexual interests in a safe and nonjudgemental way, what inspired you to create Darkhearts and what does your club offer SL residents?

Master Paimon: We came up with the name "Darkhearts" because we wanted it to be a place where people could explore their interests using the principle of S.S.C. (Safe, Sane & Consensual). Is it safe? Well, it's pixels on a screen and a roleplay, so no one gets hurt or emotionally damaged. Is it sane? Yes, it's pretty sane to have desires and to be able to act on them in a way that won't hurt anyone.

Is it consensual? The Darkhearts Dolls are able to consent to things they are willing to roleplay AND decline things that they don't want to. We also have some things our club does NOT allow, such as anything involving a minor even in roleplay. Minors CAN NOT consent, so that's right out. Our tag line is "Whatever your Darkhearts desire".

SLE: Well there are a lot of emotions that can happen and people need to remember that there is a real-life person behind the screen also. There are many adult clubs on the grid. What separates yours from the rest?

Master Paimon: I think our style is one thing. We're a little more like the Suicide Girls than Playboy here at Darkhearts. The other side of it is friendliness. We're not going to barrage you, we're not going to bite unless you ask us to, we're not going to judge you or ban you if you just want to come and party and listen to DJs we host nightly. We want it to be fun, friendly, and open to everyone.

SLE: It is very good to be open and accepting like that, a lot of places need to learn that and adopt that thought process. What type of events do you host and how often?

Master Paimon: We host TONS of parties, we have DJs nightly, and on certain days run DJs 24/7. We do fun costume parties, pool parties, and other fun stuff. We also love playing games in the club with everyone.

SLE: Music all day and night now that is a party we need to go to! Adult clubs can attract griefers, how do you ensure your escorts and strippers are not harassed? What precautions and rules do you have in place to avoid the drama?

Master Paimon: We understand griefers all too well, we all hate them. 24 hours a day there is always someone available that can remove them from the estate, which is different than just the club. Grief in our clubs, and you won't be able to come to any of my other clubs, our rentals, our bowling alley, and the arcade. Nothing. We also our ladies work together with our managers, and should a problem arise, they can help either diffuse the issue or outright ban them.

SLE: I like that all your employees are on the same page and help and assist each other if the need arises. So tell us, are you currently hiring? If so what positions are you offering and how can they apply? What qualifications must they have?

Master Paimon: We are hiring DJs, Hosts, and Escorts. DJs we always do a trial run with to see if they've got what we're looking for. Hosts same thing, we want to see that you are fun and engaging. Escorts, we are VERY selective about who we hire, but it's more personality. An Avi can be fixed, but it's the personality that cant. You've got to be fun and friendly, engaging, and have a sultry seductive side. That goes for voice, lovense, and text escorts.

SLE: Well hopefully you will see an influx after this gets published. When you arent at Darkheart, what other things are you involved in Second Life?

Master Paimon: I DJ at both of my clubs, I enjoy our bowling alley (were about to start a naked bowling league at Kinkiva, lol) I run my rental business. and I hang out in the dungeon with my submissives.

SLE: Naked bowling? Better watch where the bowling ball lands! What group can residents join to learn more about your club events?

Master Paimon: You can teleport to Darkhearts by going to Darkhearts-SL.com. Once there, be sure to join our group Darkhearts- Strip & Escort Club

SLE: It was a pleasure meeting you. We wish you success with your new club. Is there anything else you would like to share about Darkheart Strip & Escort Club?

Master Paimon: Likewise! I'd just like to invite everyone to come to see for themselves. You don't have to buy a dance to come hang out, we enjoy the conversation, and love making new friends!
