Code of Conduct
Our goal is to provide a friendly, safe, and inclusive environment for spankos aged 18+ to be themselves. Anyone whose actions directly interfere with this goal is subject to exclusion up to and including suspension or indefinite ban. We encourage and expect attendees to speak up if they witness anything that conflicts with this Code of Conduct: we’re all on the same team.
Consent
Consent, negotiation, and communication are key. We follow an enthusiastic consent model, by which we mean the only yes is a yes, not the absence of a no. Bratting might be an opening, but it doesn’t have to be a yes. And repeated asking, badgering, or pressuring is not allowed. This goes for both tops and bottoms—excessive bratting when someone has shown disinterest in playing falls under this category.
Before a scene, make sure to negotiate key elements of your play: clothing level, implements, and phrases. Reiterating a safeword is also a good idea! And remember that consent can be withdrawn at any time.
In scene communities there are a number of ways to think about what constitutes sufficient consent. The most prominent are SSC and RACK, which stand for "Safe, Sane, and Consensual" and "Risk-Aware Consensual Kink." At our events we use PRICK, or "Personal Responsibility, Informed, Consensual Kink" as our model of consent. What this means is that there are three requirements for a scene: (1) Every person involved has to understand their personal responsibility in the scene, (2) Every person involved has to be informed about what is about to happen, and (3) Every person involved has to consent to what has been planned.
Non-Discrimination Policy
We are dedicated to providing a space that is free of harassment and discrimination on the basis of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity and expression, physical appearance, race, religion (or lack therof), and sexual orientation.
Harassment and Harm
Harassment is not permitted. No means no. Anyone can decline play for any disclosed or undisclosed reason. If someone tells you they do not want to play, do not ask them why. If they say “not right now,” don’t push them.
Please be respectful of people’s pronouns and identities. Insulting or mocking an attendee for their race, gender, or sexual orientation or intentionally misgendering an attendee is considered harassment.
We do not tolerate verbal abuse or dishonesty that harms, threatens, or creates risk for other members of the community.
Conduct during play
Standard play for our events is a spanking with a hand or implement, on the buttocks. Anything that deviates from that model, including explicitly sexual conduct, requires express consent before the scene begins. We encourage players to get explicit permission before removing undergarments.
Partygoers are welcome to use their own safewords as they agree; however, standard party safewords are red (stop), yellow (slow down), and green (go ahead). Ignoring safewords is grounds for immediate removal from the event. If you hear someone ignoring a safeword, please flag a party staff member.
Party area conduct
“Party area” means our hosted suites, hallway on the party floor, and party events. Party area does not mean your own hotel room.
Our parties are for registered attendees only. Please do not bring any outside guests to the party areas.
Explicit sexual conduct is not permitted in public party areas. Take it to your room, and keep it consensual.
Be respectful of other people’s property. Do not touch or use anyone’s implements without permission.
We do not furnish alcohol to our attendees. BYOB is allowed, and we may sponsor cash bars, but underage drinking will not be permitted. Anyone consuming alcohol when they are under the legal drinking age in Las Vegas, anyone who is obviously intoxicated, or anyone under the influence of any mind altering substance will be asked to stop playing or leave the party area.
Smoking is not permitted in party areas. This includes cigarettes, marijuana, and e-cigarettes.
We will not tolerate unsafe conduct that presents a risk of harm to persons or property.
Public hotel space conduct
Public discussion of our events with hotel staff or vanilla hotel guests at our event is highly discouraged.
Nudity in public hotel areas is not allowed. Additionally, please keep your clothing in public areas vanilla friendly—that means no fetish gear in the lobby, elevators, restaurants, or anywhere other than designated suites.
Public play is permitted in designated party areas only. These are our hosted suites, hallway on the party floor, and party events. Please remember that non-party attendees did not consent to being a part of your scene. This is especially important on hallways with casino guests. Be respectful.
Kink-friendly hotels are a gift to us all - please be mindful of this. Any activity that damages the property, disrupts guests or staff, or presents a danger to party goers or guests is strictly prohibited. Please treat our hotel staff with the utmost respect. Verbal or physical assault of hotel staff will not be tolerated.
Firearms are not allowed at the party.
Privacy
We value privacy and discretion at these events. Photos are not allowed in public suites. Please get direct permission before taking a photo of anyone; that includes anyone that may be in the background of the photos.
If you learn any information about a person’s vanilla life, such as their name, employer, address, or contact information, that information should not be shared without explicit permission.
Do not out a person’s kink life to the vanilla world without permission. This includes, but is not limited to, their employers and family.
Please use discretion as you’re navigating public spaces with other party attendees. Don’t tell the bellhop, for instance, or people in restaurants, about why you’re there. Not everyone is comfortable discussing kink in mixed company.
Revocable License and Removal
Each party pass is a revocable license, and admission to the party may be refused upon refunding the purchase price appearing thereon.
In addition, we reserve the right, without the refund of any portion of the pass purchase price, to refuse admission to or eject any person whose conduct is deemed to be unsafe or disorderly, who fails to comply with the party hotel’s health and safety protocols or other policies, or who fails to comply with the terms and conditions outlined in this Code of Conduct or any other policy referred to herein or located on this website.
