So, I regularly come around here and collarme looking for (female) subs. But there seems to be almost nobody who's interested in being dominated, without wanting bondage and/or pain. My question is does everyone actually have this fetish, or do they just say that they want these things to try and please their potential Doms?

Personally, I've no interest in tying up or inflicting pain on my potential subs. I'd rather have someone who didn't need something like that to show them who's boss. I'd use handcuffs if I wanted her arms bound and lock her up in the cellar for a while if she needed a punishment, but I wouldn't want to physically hurt her (and if I did I'd feel rather bad about it, which wouldn't Dom-like at all).

Are there any subs out there who would be far happier if they knew their Dom wasn't going to inflict pain, or any Doms who feel the same way as me?
