"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

No I'm not here to oppose the rule, god knows how many topics and debates have been made already. If we're going to have this post limit rule, can we at least have a counter to know how many we have left? The only time we are told how many posts we have left is when we actually hit our limit. I usually don't use it to my max and sometimes get careless with my posts and post oneliners just for fun, but then when a serious topic comes along and I can't post, it gets a bit irritating. This way we'll have a better way of managing our posts.

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Okay can I be heard out on this one? Last night I was writing like a 3 paragraph long reply to a guy's question. I tried to submit it, it was denied because I reached my limit. I go back and all that I wrote disappeared. This is becoming a nuisance, other forums that have these post limit rules usually apply these only to new users and as they gain rank, they have the privilege of more posts. The thing is even if they have these 20, 30, 50, 80 post limit rules, they all still keep track of how many posts you have made in a 24 hour span. I don't want to be strategic about how I use my posts.

/agree

The quality of posts hasn't exactly skyrocketed since the rule came into play

And I had a similar experience where I was writing a few paragraphs and I ended up not being able to post it :/

I think that may have been part of ElStud-Gate.

As far as OP, Yeah it's annoying, but i find i only post if i either A: have something to contribute or B: my post gives me lulz.

TBH it's ok with just 10 posts, otherwise there will be people here all night :|

Same, most of the time I rarely use 10 posts in one day, but there are going to be days when you feel like staying home and even just bum it at the message boards. sosuave is one of my, if not the most, frequently visited message board for me, and it sucks that out of all the message boards I visit and post in, sosuave is the one I spent the least amount of time in because of this.
