Only one guy (pictured above) sent in a proper application for the Long Term Locking Metal Testing Facility (details in this previous posting, here).

You ask why You should take me as a volunteer?! Because since I am a boy I dream from being put in heavy chains, wearing heavy chains, eating in heavy chains, sleping in heavy chains, toiling in heavy chains: to become galleyslave in Rome or a plantation slave in the Antebellum South. Every episode in a film that shows heavy ancient shackles – be it BenHur, Fugitive From a Chain Gang, Roots, Les Miserables – turns me on, and the mostly just short passages showing the chaining I have seen so many times, that I can dream them. Medieval-style collars, fetters, manacles, ball-and-chain: I am born to have them locked to my limbs. In SM-camps as soon I get the chance, I wear real slave-chains. My favorite dress is the black-and-white striped chaingang-jumpsuit. I am now writing even a novel about a student who gets enslaved in the Arab world, and metal restraints of every kind of course play a central role in this story. So it would be very helpful to know by experience what it means to wear heavy chains for a longer period, in which respect which kind of irons limits your movement, to make my story to be as near to the truth as possible … (smile)”
OK Ben Hur, your email has been traced, and we know where you live. You are herby on notice that we will be coming to abduct you, when you least expect it, to take you away to serve a VERY LONG sentence in chains. Doing hard labor. There will be no escaping your fate. Get ready, buddy.
