"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.

The banning of Chubb46 has me wondering

I'm sure that this thought has crossed the minds of the 'less polite' type forum members. (I'm not always tactful and polite and include myself also in this mix).

The question is... when we see someone banned that didn't give personal insults, or use 'offending' language', etc... Are we (about 50% of the regular less-polite members) next in line?

I openly stated that I wasn't fond of her presence, but that's no reason to glorify a banning. To be fair and honest, I've slung harsher sardonic wit and mockery. And yep, I didn't care for her hijacking a posting... but we've all done a hi-jack or two in our lives.

In view of her recent banning, I'm sure that some of us are wondering... if we're hanging by a thread here and could get banned upon a mods impulsive whim?
 

"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.

No, not for what this user was banned for. There's more rules than those about personal insults. It's not always obvious or visible to the forums why a member is banned, but this case is well justified.

It was a troll connected to a previously removed member. I won't go into more detail as a discussion on this will motivate the troll to return.

I appreciate your response. I totally respect your reasoning as to not supplying a lot of info.
You answered my question and provided some reassurance. This was the response I was hopeful to see.
Thanks again.

Pardon me, but I don't believe it was an actual lady that come onto this forum and began posting. It was more of a made up personality, perhaps by moderating community itself -- I won't be naming names, but you know who you are -- perhaps with an intention of trolling another mod on here who is somewhat of an aw -- ;) -- and perhaps with an intention of testing the effectiveness of moderating community.

As far as banning goes, it is an effective tool of sosuave, which forces -- gives a kick in the nuts, perhaps -- a member to change into positive direction. Being a site personality and kdj-ing is not that -- perhaps make a change in their lives that will improve SMV and kick start a positive social change, basically dj bible and boot camp and approaches, and everything that goes with it, improving SMV even if it starts with professional haircut, and finally getting ripped and healthy, becoming don juan is not just about overcoming social fears. Basically, banning is a tool that could kick start a positive change in the live of a dj. Get off the site -- you don't have to be a member to read articles -- and go do something.

As far as afomentioned banned member, I'm not convinced it's an actual woman.

Exactly. A known troll attempting his second fake female account.
You seem to be fairly good at knowing that some members aren’t always who they say they are…
 

"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.

Do the mods have ways to check IPs of members? I strongly believe there are many who are double nicks.
