"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

If your gut instinct hints some type of troll, please ban them. Many posts are very obvious. I speaks for many in this community that we are not pushovers. We will not tolerate posters that have no intention of bettering our community. It should be very obvious to those doing harm, or else the moderators wouldn't be elected in the first place. You are given authoritative powers, please use them accordingly.

As always, you have our full support.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Agreed. He's just wasting the valuable time of people who try to help him.

Clearly a troll.
 

"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.

I've been a moderator, admin, and co admin on multiple gaming websites(and in game) in the passed, and it can get a bit tricky to ban types of trolling. That one asian guy asking to rate him was obviously a troll but skinnyguy is just uneducated on subjects. Its really our job to reducate him and guide him or anyone else in the right direction. AFC's are naturally stubborn.

If i was in a position of power i would actually be sending warning messages to some of the older members for flaming each other- as its against the rules. I see a lot more flaming to and from other members rather than actual trolls.

But in retrospect people get away with a lot of sh*t here based on my experience.

I agree. Its not hard to see the trolls. Sh!t has being crazy. Its fine if some one wants to attempt to visibly disagree, and they can be shut down with logic. But things have been getting real stupid on here.

(First of all, kudos for sounding more mature at age seventeen than many do at 30+)

Troll or not troll ... someone please tell him to stop posting useless threads that push away better threads.

"HEY! Do you think that wearing SHOES gives you more tail than NOT wearing shoes?"

Unfortunately there is no forum function for stopping a user from posting threads ... but how about locking meaningless threads? That should be a clear enough hint.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Oh, I see.

Basically anyone who disagrees with you should be banned.

Very mature.

We don't ban people for being weird, different, confused, new at this, inexperienced, eccentric, abrasive, young, old, doesn't agree with SS's general philosophies, uneducated, naïve, etc.

We carefully deliberate on each individual in question in order to accurately ascertain whether they are willfully trolling or just blundering out of naiveté or inexperience. We do this to avoid being heavy-handed and denying people chances to get up to speed here.

Many (though not all) men who join here have some significant deficits in socializing skills and are here to learn and get on a more productive track. At first they appear a little weird but many of them make big improvements.

I can think of several members who might have appeared quite ban-worthy in their novice days here at SS; perhaps even one or two who are participating in this very thread.

We all have a very effective means of improving our experience here at SS... It's called ignoring threads that disinterest or annoy us. Simple and effective.
