"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
MODERATORS - What happened with all the "Master Don Juan" titles???
- Thread starter Tantric
- Start date
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

That's why some people have been promoted, others demoted, and some have stayed the same.
In your case, Tantric, we didn't think you really deserved your Master Don Juan title, and so we stripped it from you until you EARN it.
We feel that you still needed a few more quality posts to prove yourself. I think two or three more good posts should get you over the line.

I just spoke with a couple of the other moderators, and they actually think you were a little hard-done-by not getting at least Senior DJ status. I'm almost certain that you'll get it with a couple more posts.
Guitar_Whizz,
Pook's status was one of the more hotly debated issues. (We only considered accounts that have been active within the past 9 months) We actually decided to give him Senior DJ status for a strange reason - he is worshipped! We figured that people already take his advice like medicine and there are an over-abundance of posts asking Pook for advice that to give him the highest possible status would be against everything he has preached, and his followers would increase to uncontrollable numbers, probably flooding the board with questions to Pook.
However the matter is still under consideration and may yet be changed.
EDIT: Just to let you know, Tantric, your status has been upgraded. Congrats.

I also agree. Everyone knows Pook is the ultimate DJ. He is a shining example. How could he NOT be given master dj status?

Now, here's my question. If you have some determination of how far and in what areas a DJ has achieved, then vice versa, can you offer some constructive criticism on which avenues need to be more closely examined?

You are kidding right?
From what I've seen, you are to remain "senior DJ" until your 500 post, then you'll be "Master DJ". Correct me if I'm wrong on the number
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I think he had everyone going for a minute. No one has enough time to look at everyones post and decide if they're a 'Master DJ' or 'Senior DJ'.

Pook's posts usually contain significant grammatical errors. Until this is corrected, I recommend holding His Worshipfulness back a grade.
Just kidding, of course. I have a lot of respect for the Pookster.

"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.

I'm glad to see a veteran still hanging around. How are you Dee-Zy?Originally posted by Dee-Zy
I'm still master Don Juan.
That's all what matters

Ranking posters has been a legitimate request to Allen for a long time. Remember, a person reaching a Master Don Juan status just because he keeps reposting the word "bump" until he hits post # 110 (or something)?
I don't want to start that "Back in our days..." stuff again. But when I started, people post great ideas and no personal attacks.
I applaud DJ Forum's pioneers who are still hanging in there and enduring occasional charades that we have here.
Thanks for "hearing" me out.

I'm kinda pissed at how the board turned out. Things change - but I don't think the board changed for the best. This is just my MO though, I have been wrong and I can be wrong. No offense to anybody - that's just how I feel.
We should get a petition to pressure Allen to go back and convince the Ol' timers to come back.
