"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

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.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

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.
