Another vote for bad doms here... one question: are you being open about how inexperienced you are? This may help (it may also draw more predators, thats a risk anyway, but it will also mean they have no excuse not to assume you know stuff).

Everyone has to start somewhere and so should remember how hard it is at first. Some also forget and these are not the best people to be dealing with newbies. What you need is an experienced Dom who is aware that you have no experience and who is willing to deal with that and do things like test your limits.

There are exercises you can try to work out your own limits.

1) Find and complete a BDSM checklist. There are many different types out there but most of them have a list of activities, a grading system (usually 0-5 with 0 being don't want to do and 5 being really want to do) and a tick list to indicate if you have done it or not. Read through it, look up or ask (on here if you like) about activities you don't recognise (and there will be some - things like bastarnado are things that I had to look up even after several years of supposedly knowing stuff ) and really think about what you would like to try and what you would not like to try. Then consider the rank you have given each activity. In general you can consider a 0 to be a hard limit - you will never, ever, want to do this ever, no matter what. 1-3 are varying degrees of 'soft limit' - you are not sure about these but would like to try sometime but maybe not yet. 4 and 5 are, of course, thing you want to do all the time and think you will really enjoy.

Remember that this is not a final decision. Limits can and will change as you get more experience. You may find that you were not interested in coprophillia but then try it and find you do (ok, extreme example... ). One thing to consider: a pretty good initial set of hard limits to quote are 'nothing related to animals, children, blood or bodily fluids'. The first is so commonly quoted that it is often taken as given (but still worth mentioning), the second is illegal (but again, still worth mentioning) and the final two are generally edge play and not for beginners.

This may give you a better idea of limits. Frankly, I am surprised that a Master has not inflicted this on you already or at least asked you questions about activities in this structured way. Simply asking 'what are your limits?' is a poor method of initial negotiation.

2) Join the tasking society here. In this you will be given tasks to complete which will help you better understand your own submission.

3) IN future communication, make sure that more negotiation occurs. Talk to them, ask questions about things you do not understand. Remember, you are not their sub until you agree to be so and it is still your right to end the relationship at any point. They do not get your respect and submission until they earn it, when you choose to give it. Anyone who opens a conversation with 'kneel bitch' instead of 'hello' is almost certainly a predatory arsehole and not a real Dom.
