Orgasm deprivation is probably the best thing to keep my O/L sub focused on her position, and it does make for some excellent from-the-heart emails as she begs for release. The fact that the deprivation is controlled by me and is over a period of days makes the arrangement much more effective than the imposition of almost any other punishment. As with most D/S, control is the key, and to have control/be controlled continuously over a period of days when the body wishes for relief brings a far better edge to O/L than the more immediate punishments that can be handed out in the much shorter time available when actually online.

I also agree with you, IndigoFae, that the imposition of other torments along the way enhances the pleasure/punishment, although my preference is for my sub to increase her need for release by masturbation for short periods (as instructed of course) to increase her need to breaking point.

The release when it is finally allowed also allows for a reward with some 'real-life' meaning, which is always difficult to achieve in an on-line relationship.
