I'm amazed you lasted this long. I gave up ages ago because every time it ends up just how it did.
This isn’t about “help”.
I’ve gotten some real results from using pua and just because you don’t agree with it doesn’t make the results any less real.
I find it interesting that if we don’t get results you say we need to take responsibility, but if we actually do take responsibility and use something like pua to get results, suddenly it’s “oh it could be anything”. Where I know for a fact if I hadn’t had mentioned pua, it would all be DMSI praise.
I had been trying to hold my tongue, but after this, I'm too tired of your shit to hold my tongue anymore. You make me think you are a moron sometimes.
It was about help. I was trying to point out to you a logical fallacy you were committing YET AGAIN, which is the belief that correlation equals causation. I wasn't disagreeing that you might have gotten those results from PUA. I was simply pointing out that X following Y does not mean that X was caused by Y, because you love to simplify things to black or white, when the world is not black and white. And when you do this, which is constantly, you inevitably come to some seriously ***** up and wrong conclusions.
That may be true. But consider my perspective: If I can't/don't know what is contributing to my success, how can I get better?
I agree that being wrong about what is contributing to my success is just as bad, but then what is there left to do?

DMSI includes the Optimus Engine, which is a polymorphic script designed to get your subconscious to use what it knows and understands to achieve the goal. So it is, in fact, entirely possible (and probable, actually, now that I think about it) that all of your "success with PUA" came from the OE in DMSI being executed. You understand PUA, so that's the vector that would have been used. Just like DathXedonias traveled to another country to find a culture that would allow him to execute DMSI.
Now whether or not that was the case with you, I can't know for sure, but I certainly could still claim credit for your "successes" based on that if I wanted to. If it was all about DMSI praise, you would have seen me do that already. But I haven't. So much for your little theory.
Yes, I've thought about that. If that is what DMSI is doing then that's great. It's one of the reasons I still run it. I know it's doing something, but I don't know what.

I can't help that.
That's a likely cop-out. You can go study logic. Not too many people out there whose brains are wired to be literally unable to comprehend logic. You might be one of them; but you can still go study logic and try.

Regardless of what got you results, I have made how many versions of this damned program in a row with only getting paid once per person for it? And because I made you guys a promise. Who else would have done that? Nobody. Anyone else would have just scrapped the project and moved on, regardless of what you guys thought or wanted, promise or not. So whether or not you got results, you should still be appreciating, because this is more than a year of my blood sweat and tears into this program trying to help guys like you.
I do appreciate what you've done. I've praised you and DMSI more times as the programs have gotten better and I do know it must be exhausting, frustrating, and annoying to keep doing this thing. I know I, personally, feel the same way when I'm doing pick up and I think I *finally* have the answer to a problem, test it in field, and then the women throw another curve ball at me. It feels like they don't WANT me and that hurts. I imagine it must be the same for you. Like you feel we don't want to actually succeed. But that's not true. I do want to succeed and I'm grateful for the experiences DMSI has given me thusfar (like that 8.5. Seriously, showed me what is possible as she was 100% manifested and she seduced me but I guess I f*cked it up somehow).
So yeah, don't get me wrong.
Women are by and large primarily emotional in their thinking, and that makes them irrational in their choices and actions in general. Of course this is a massive generalization, and does not always hold true on the individual level, as we are all a collection of points on a series of spectrums. I have met some consummately logical women, and some incredibly irrational men. Nothing I say here is intended to be degrading of women or sexist. But when you consider this fact that women tend to be more emotive in their thinking and cognition, and it makes them less reliant on logic to find their way, as men are, you can understand why women seem to be a mystery to men, since logic and emotion are mutually exclusive states of awareness. To make things worse, as I said before, everyone is a collection of points on multiple spectrums, so many people who are irrational may believe themselves to be rational, and some part of them may in fact be, at the same time they are predimonantly irrational. Irrational = difficult to predict at best. Therefore, women will often seem to be throwing curve balls at men until and unless you understand the underlying primal- and meta-logic they run on. And in some cases, even understanding that will fail.
Quote:My outburst was definitely fueled by losing my FWB and not having any women in the pipeline. I didn't mean to be ungrateful, but some truths had to be said, especially with all the PUA bashing going around.
My point of view is one based on having only "studied" PUA for a relatively short time. I found some of it useful, and a lot of it was, for me, a waste of time. I have developed ways to do things that are, for me, superior in results. Some of what I read was very eye opening as to the underlying psychology of the female of the species, and therefore very useful, although not (for me) as a direct application to PUA. I am not current on PUA techniques, and my opinion of them is based on my understanding of what I have been exposed to, which is admittedly not current, as well as why people get into PUA and what the goal of PUA is, in addition to what PUA is doing to the whole of society.
If you find it useful, use it. If you think it's the prime mover for you, then that's what you think it is. My goal with DMSI is not to prevent you from using PUA or "hunting" but in making it unnecessary, and the mindset that PUA teaches is based on the assumption that "man must hunt", when that is not true for all men. As common sense dictates, a woman will hunt you to whatever degree she perceives you to have sufficient value to motivate her to do so. That PUA teaches that you MUST hunt, defeats the ability to achieve the proper mindset and frame of reference for achieving the state that DMSI is aiming to achieve. It directly conflicts. It is working against DMSI, and THAT is the beef I have with PUA in this case.
Quote:If someone were to bash DMSI to my face, I'd probably res[pond the same way because it has helped. In fact, I've been in contact with a member on another forum who used to be here but was banned.
I don't know why he was banned. But he was talking about DMSI and how it wasn't good.
I told him about my experiences and he's back using it again BECAUSE OF ME!
I appreciate that.
Quote:I don't hate DMSI, or you Shannon, but I have a strong conviction to the truth and can't abide when people distort what I see as correct for what I see as their own agenda.
That means I'm not the most popular guy I get that, but to me it's about progress not popularity (though I would like to be popular too So, if I knew a way to be more tactful I'd do it).
I have no ill will toward you at all. The only issue I have with you is that we do not have a way to fluidly exchange understanding. I cannot show you what I know and help you understand it, and that understandably frustrates me. At the time of the OP, I was also verging on burnout from building the custom. Even now I am only just beginning to feel like I am getting rested.
Quote:Anyhow, sorry if there were hard feelings but I have to speak my truth. That will never change. All I can do is try to learn how to be more tactful and speak the truth without hurting people.
No hard feelings. I admire your convictions to speak your truth. But please remember that your truth may not be THE truth, it is your understanding of "the truth" based on your thinking style, and what I keep trying to show you is how you are getting away from the truth by thinking in ways that lead you to arrive at destination points that are further from it, and thus, defeat you or at least delay you in your efforts.

And if you keep going with being snarky and arrogant, I'm going to decide I have finally had enough. If you want to say PUA did it, then stop using DMSI and go do your PUA thing. I don't care what did it for you at this point. I am just tired of your snarky attitude.
Seriously, I have no idea what the hell you're even using DMSI for anymore. Especially if you think PUA is what's doing it for you. Go play with your damned PUA and see what it gets you when DMSI has worn off.
It's like I said, I know DMSI is doing something, that's why I keep using it.
Sorry for my snarkiness. I was upset.
I appreciate that as well. I apologize for my snarkiness in responding. I was also upset.
Now, let's get back to getting you success.
