"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Proposal to all those tired of "She looked at me, does she like me" threads

I have a proposal to those who moderate this fine site:

Please erase immediately all threads that are somewhere along the lines of "she looked my way in class today, is she hot for me?"

I, and many others on this great site, are getting tired of all the newbie posts asking stupid questions. Someone (I forget who) said it seems like this board is suffering from an invasion of AFCs.
IT IS TRUE!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this site for fine-tuning your game, not asking stupid AFC questions?

It seems like alot of the great members posting great stuff are jumping ship because this board is being swamped by AFCs. Honestly, I don't want to lose all the fine members who do so much to help us fledgling DJs to improve our game.

Frankly, if the AFC invasion isn't stopped, it will possibly kill this site. :( I think I am speaking for many of the members when I voice my concerns for the future of this powerful tool for DJs.

I know my game has improved leaps and bounds since finding this great website less than a month ago.

Please, stem the tide of the AFC post invasion.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Only Diablo activly moderates this site, the rest of moderaters are busy circle-jerking eachother in the mod section.

Unfortunatly it's not enough.

I believe it is going to be quite difficult to follow through with what you're proposing.

Firstly, a lot of those people who post the AFCish threads will be pretty pissed that their attempt at seeking advice are thrown out in an instant.

It really can't get any clearer than having a sticky with 'reading the DJ Bible' being the first thing that new people to this board should do.

Of course the moderators could choose to delete those threads that are totally clueless. But that'll depend on how strict they want to be.

Personally, I just read those AFCish posts and either point out that it's flawed to ask such pointless questions or I just don't respond whatsoever. It's not like I lose brain cells reading them so it's no real loss to me.

Donjuan87... just let natural selection do its job. If the post is useless, it will naturally slip down in no time, leaving the important discussions like ''Brad Pitt is so hot OMG'' and ''I'll do 100'000 approaches, please compliment me, I've got no life'' get their place on top.

We could call it 'Discussion Forum Darwinism'...
