*TDF is an international discussion forum for everything surrounding the topic of adult love dolls. Members are encouraged to share their knowledge, experience, pictures and opinions in a healthy online environment for the benefit of everyone.
Love dolls are becoming more and more popular, and as our membership continues to grow it's always good to keep in mind that we all come from a wide array of nationalities and cultural backgrounds, and to do our best to maintain a healthy and respectful atmosphere for everyone at all times. The great thing about love dolls that brings us all together is that there's something in it for everyone.
For some, dolls can represent an outlet to live out their wildest sexual fantasies. For some, dolls can represent exquisite models for erotic photography. For some, dolls can represent artificial life partners with whom a very strong sentimental attachment can develop. It's good to be aware that members can fall anywhere in between on that spectrum. Depending on the context, when posting a comment about a member's doll please try to keep in mind that overtly sexual comments might be very well received in some cases, or on the other hand may not be well received in other cases. If unsure, it's always good practice to "read the room" before posting to get an idea of what kind of comments should be viewed as acceptable.
Q: I received a private message, why can't I send a reply?
A: There are a few restrictions on new member accounts. As a new member, your first 5 posts must first be approved by our moderation team before they show up. These restrictions are in place in order to help us filter out spam and bots. After your 5th approved post, newbie restrictions will be lifted, you will be able to post freely, send a PM, vote on polls, and attach files to posts.
A: Outgoing messages are held in your outbox until the recipient retrieves their own inbox. At that time, your message will appear in your "sent" folder. It's good to note that as long as a pm is sitting in your outbox, it can still be edited for a period of 24 hours after having been sent, or be deleted.
A: Yes, absolutely! TDF has a live chat where registered members are encouraged to socialize and exchange with other members, ask questions and exchange pictures for example. Members of TDF staff are often also in the chat, so if you have a question you are always welcome to join in and ask us!
