P.S. While I worry this post will cause me even more problems here...I feel I had to take the chance to be honest and reflect my experience as a tester as directed to. I feel the chance to be this honest is somewhat rare here without risking a derail or a fight etc., I truly hope I'm not jumped on and attacked as badly as normal. I'm honestly just doing my job as an honest tester, and trying to help the program succeed...if it can...which I admit I still have severe doubts about.
If I had no faith left here at all...I would have left. Please remember that before any vitriol.
Thank you all for your time.
I'm sure you're frustrated, Catman, but I'm curious as to what this post is supposed to accomplish. The contents aren't any different than what we've all read before. "Being honest" about your disappointment and frustration hasn't moved DMSI up the schedule in the past, and I doubt it will now. Your DMSI feedback hasn't changed, so I also don't really see how it's useful for improving the program any longer. I was pulling for something to happen for you somewhere along the line, but I'm not sure that's going to happen. Hopefully something will in one of the final upcoming versions.
I haven't experienced anything other than increased flirting, sexy dreams, increased female attention (outside of my marriage) - but I did see a notable improvement in my sex life at home, which is all I ever really wanted out of the program. I'm aware that those kind of results aren't what the program is aiming for, in the end. But, we're not at the end of development.
Shannon already stated that DMSI is due for a "huge upgrade." It's coming, even if it's a ways off. This kind of post isn't going to be a rally cry for hundreds of IML customers who purchased DMSI to grab Shannon's attention and move DMSI to top priority. And knowing him, it's hardly going to motivate him to be more sympathetic to your position. It's the same song we've heard before. Maybe go back to UMOP (you seemed high that program), or try something new like USLM4 and make getting laid a goal - perhaps that will accomplish some things for you in a way DMSI hasn't been able to thus far.
Hope you don't feel attacked, man - this is just my opinion on the matter.
Okay, but...what is the alternative then? The program can't grow in an echo chamber of vague positive vibes with no external results. Isn't that the same repetitive posts over and over in the same fashion? I'm just saying things need to be accurately weighed and quantified to assess where the program is REALLY at in order to improve it, if that's possible to even do.
If we don't post...nothing changes as he gets no feedback to improve.
If we do, we get critiqued and criticised. I'm honestly not sure what I'm expected to do. Seems I get a negative either way, either he doesn't know what to improve due to no posts and the program continues to fail. Or people claim "it's the same post over and over", which is just in reality further proof results have stagnated/are non-existent if that is occurring. I don't see a way out then, until the program works and changes the narrative.
And what's the only way THAT happens? By reporting what is honestly happening or not happening. He isn't a mind reader, he needs to be reported to on experience if we have any chance of this thing ever working.
And as stated earlier, the issue here has been the same feel-good posts over and over, but with zero substance and actual external results, clouding the assessment of DMSI's true effectiveness level. I'm just saying being honest about where you're truly at so Shannon has a REAL baseline, can't be a bad thing. It can only help. Being evasive, and vague, hiding the failure in reality, doesn't help the program develop. I guess I'm just more "okay" with admitting I'm failing with women, failing to have this program work. Perhaps it's a pride issue with some, not wanting to admit they're failing with women etc., are worried they'll upset Shannon or have arguments, so that's why it's being hidden, I don't know. I'm just trying to give the purest perspective I can.
Sorry the posts aren't glowing endorsements currently, nobody is more distraught about that than I am. Trust me on that bro. I hate having to essentially admit the biggest failure in my life with women when journaling, I'd rather not have to but if I BS and pretend I'm executing, that gets me nowhere as I stated earlier. However, if I don't report, he has no perspective on what's going on with me, so he doesn't have the info to change things to make it possibly work someday. I'm just trying to do my job. It could randomly totally break through one day, so he needs to be kept up to date. Now I doubt that personally, but changes along the way are possible, and if they don't occur, I feel it's still important to update periodically as a tester so he has an idea what's going on and what needs to be worked on. He doesn't know, what he doesn't know, as the saying goes. I at least want to keep him up to date with me, least I can do as a tester. My responsibility as a tester, too. Plus, I haven't posted for some time now I think possibly, so I took the opportunity to force myself to update, as I don't enjoy it too much anymore.
It's important to me to mention the massive delay in releases as I did, because as the time drags on in between releases, and the results continue to falter for the crushing majority, obviously interest in the program wanes and people give up and move on. Which has largely happened already. So I've been deeply concerned (won't rewrite why, to not be redundant further as it was in the first post) the program is, essentially, dying. Or, being killed. That's why. I thought the post explained it clearly, but it was super late at night and I was tired, so who knows, lmao.
I don't really feel comfortable buying any more programs here, until I see DMSI break through. The idea of the luck sub I'm very iffy on I admit, and the other goals largely don't interest me, and procrastination I can say isn't an issue to me for quite some time now. That one large project I was dragging my heels on a long while back, all in my past, thankfully, I got some outside help and powered through with them. All in my rear view!
For me, with DMSI being the testbed for 6G, the path forward is really through DMSI. It's the program I came here for years ago, for my issues. And because it's tech will influence future 6G subs, if this can be made to work for me, others will be able to in the future as well. So it's vital I report to Shannon on it if I'm to have any chance of future execution of things I feel. Other sub goals I'm either highly skeptical of, like the luck sub, or I'm just generally jaded about the money I've spent for the return I've gotten overall. So I'm holding off on purchases personally, until things improve with this sub to restore my confidence. I still referred some business here from an associate very recently, though.
All the best man, I've been enjoying your journaling!
