I've been pondering this lately: what is the future of this community. Where will we be in 2010, 2011, 2015? Who will be the new gurus (barf to that word) and new companies to emerge?
The community has expanded since I first found out about it 8 or 9 years ago. It was actually weirder in those days but it was also cooler. Every answer wasn't solved with someone telling you to take their bootcamp or buy a product. As you know I'm tired of reading about or seeing new products month after month. $300, $400, $500, a $1000 dollar sets of 10-20 2 hour dvds and cd's. And like I said 9 times out of 10 all you need is a pair of balls and the personality to back up a desire to talk to women and be social, interesting and attractive. If I'm a big PUA business, company etc my mindset is like that of pharmaceutical companies - I don't want you to find your own cure I want to cure you and I want you to tell others they need me too and I can cure them from their 'AFC' ways. I remember arguing with a female friend who graduated with a degree in pharmacy and worked for a big name company. She loathed the idea of Americans getting any drugs from Canada or India or trying to find natural cures. She came up with rebuttals to those ideas saying they weren't safe, not FDA approved and everything else. What she was really saying is she doesn't want someone dipping in her pocket. It was the same argument I had with a former instructor who at the time argued that every guy outside of the community who isn't a natural needs this stuff and should take a bootcamp or purchase these products, otherwise his dating life will be miserable or his only option will be dating unattractive women. The truth is he wanted his customers to be successful more than anything but only because it kept money in his pocket not because he's concerned with your general dating welfare
and the quality of woman that come in and out of your life. He also had 'Guru-itis' which is the bug that hits community guys once they become instructors, they suddenly feel this god-like status come over them and their word becomes biblical in nature. God forbid you should disagree with them in a forum on a particular topic related to game. No, no, no! Ahhh the arrogance of being a community guy. The master gurus (the ones that start the companies, were mentioned in the book, or the ones that were around back in the day) feel superior to the instructors who feel superior to the guys in the forum with a thousands of post and lots of field reports (veterans) but haven't taken the plunge to be an instructor, and they feel superior to the newbies who feel superior the the AFC's and other guys outside of the community. It's one big chain reaction!
So what will the rest of 2008 and the start of 2009 bring? More products, bigger releases, super conferences with a merge of companies, higher bootcamp prices (please God don't say it's so) and the continuing of the soap opera effect: company vs company, guru vs guru, philosophy vs philosophy, dorks vs dorks arguing over it all, and a bunch of confused teenagers and men running around with their heads cut off wondering who to listen to, where to go, what to do and who to do it with.

Another Bootcamp review
Again I don't post names of companies to shame anyone but instead to expose a little reality on what really goes on sometimes. This one is from a guy who I talked to on the phone who emailed me his experience. He and I have been cool for about a year now and he got in the community in 2006 and saved up for his bootcamp started last December. Here was a short run down of his experience.
"Man I read all of the hype of how this was going to change my life and my perspective and everything else. That's what guys on the forum were saying so I had more than enough saved up and said what the hell. Mind you I have pulled women so I wasn't a newbie or a virgin. The other guy that took the bootcamp was a 22 year old virgin who had never really gone out. Of course his experience was going to be good but mine - well I'm 29 and have been laid about 15 times in my lifetime. My instructor wasn't all that great. Don't get me wrong he was cool and for the most part we hung out and he had us go into sets with a few natural openers and I got some good responses and socialized with about 5 out of 8 sets. The other sets I was pretty much shut out after a 10 second introduction. But the ones I did open it was pretty much vibing and nothing else. I did get two numbers but it won't do me much good because I flew in for my bootcamp. I never saw much from the instructor except him saying that I'm doing pretty good and I just need to lean back a little more, and relax more and that one chick was into me but I didn't catch on. He did 2 demos at each club we went to but it was nothing but him entering, getting hello's, and then a cool exit. He never escalated or anything. I have to say the feedback was decent but after the bootcamp was over I kept thinking of better things I could've done with the 3 grand I spent on everything. I give my bootcamp a 2 out of 5 stars. Had it been $500 I would've given in 4 out of 5 stars but the value and what I learned doesn't match the cost in my opinion."
So far over the last two years I've talked to 12 guys who've taken bootcamps with various companies. 4 out of those 12 have great experiences. Another 3 had decent experiences but felt it was a bit too expensive for what they got out of it and 5 had horrible experiences with reactions like "this was a waste for me!" Do your homework.

My Community Rant READ!!
I wrote this awhile back but bumped it up because there are so many truths to it that I want people to understand.
Okay so I don't want this blog to be nothing but a rant of me mocking the community but I do want to share the things I know or have discovered or just simply things that are annoying about the PUA community. I've been around a few dozen guys from community from ex-instructors, gurus, regular scene guys and the likes. I've had the opportunity to travel to London, Los Angeles, NY, San Fran, Miami, Toronto and other places because of my enthusiasm and desire to learn not to mention having a dad that was willing to pay for me to travel around.
For starters I won't call out anyone or any company. I'm not going to do damage to their reputation but at the same time I'm not going to endorse anyone or their company. The fact is there are some companies and guys teaching the business that have no business doing so which leads to my first and biggest rant and that's guys that jumped in this to milk the cash cow. In the years since I left and rejoined the community I will expose several things I've either witnessed first hand, heard from a good friend who was there or heard from an ex-instructor no longer around:
1) Hanging out against the bar or wall sipping a drink and talking to a buddy, opening maybe 1 or 2 girls and then going home after a few hours.
2) doing set demo's with less attractive, easy girls who already showed a bit of interest
3) making up field reports and bootcamp reports under different aliases to inspire business (ever notice that 90 percent of the bootcamp feedback is guys with only 1 or 2 post? Were they never apart of the forum before the bootcamp? Why don't they tell us their progress after the bootcamp or continue posting in forums?)
4) Giving overlong seminars, then taking guys out and pushing them into sets without demo'ing a set themselves. Instead they sit back with observations: "that was good, you did well, you just need to lean back a little" Several coaches I know who aren't dating will tell their students that they have a girlfriend so it gets them out of doing nothing more in a demo set than a introduction.
5) Fake sets! This was from a former instructor who said that yes some companies will actually pay girls before hand to make a students set go easier. The company has a relationship with a few girls outside of the company and pays them (or gets them free drinks or whatever) to interact positively with a student during a bootcamp.
6) Fake infield hidden cameras dvd's or audio. See above.
7) posing with women for added value. Yep I did it too! Posing with attractive women and showing it off to others saying 'yeah this girl was into me but she was psycho so I stopped calling her and...' I've seen almost every PUA do this including the most famous of them.
Okay so that's my main rant and that's why I said previously that some of these guys aren't any good. They aren't bad but they aren't the Gods that people on the forums make them out to be.
The guru worship is a bit redundant as well as the guru hate. Neither is deserved. I realize there are guys who don't get laid so any information to them is like placing a dumbell in a skinny guys hand and telling him to curl it repetiously. But you know I realized even before the community that going out and actually having a conversation with women solves 1/4 of your problems and I don't want to hear the 'Thats what AFC's do' excuse because it's a lame excuse. WTF is an AFC anyway and why do guys who've been around for 3-6 months feel like they are so much better than them? And as far as some of the so called 'gurus' well I've seen some of these guys and some of them are train wrecks. Would you want some guys giving you relationship advice who have never been in a relationship longer than 1 year? Yes some of these guys are good at gaining interest and attraction and notice I said some not all, but many have deeper issues that lie outside of pickup theory and practice.
So that's my community rant. It is what it is. I've seen the good and the bad and it's not as great as it seems and it's not as bad as it seems, just somewhere in between.

Community Pet Peeves
Alright so there are a few things about the community that turn me off or make me realize that many guys have a long way to go. Anyway I have a tendency to repeat myself so if I do just ignore it. So here are my biggest pet peeves about the community:
1) Hero worship - Grrrrrr!!! PUA's are not messiahs. They fail! They are human. They sometimes bang less than desirable women. They go nights without approaching. I've seen the majority of them and I admire some of their teachings but I've seen their flaws. You would be surprised! Get off your knees and stop worshiping them. If you're 13-17 it's understandable. If you're 18-24 and still a virgin I can see that. If you're 25 and older and you're worshiping PUA's we need to talk. Also remember that what is preached and works for some gurus doesn't mean it's going to work for you.
2) Player hating! Just as bad as hero worshipping is the guy that hates so and so, thinks his teaching is garbage because it doesn't work for him, jock rides one company and flames another,
worships one guru and scoffs at the others, etc.
3) Rejecting the mainstream: I'll never forget a well respected Ivy league PHD graduate putting out a book about women and a few community guys blasting it by saying that the information contradicts community advice or master guru whoever's theory. I think the IQ level of several community guys dropped a bit on that thought. Just because an article or book was written by someone who isn't a guru or hasn't approached 100,000 sets doesn't mean it isn't worthy, valid or true. I don't think these people got their PHD's at Harvard just sitting around thinking up shit and writing books about it. ' AFC scientist who doesn't get laid is saying that people with similar attributes tend to be attracted to each other and blah, blah, blah' this guy doesn't know what he's talking about, etc. Bullshit, shut up please! Yes there are plenty of paper professors, columnist and speakers who don't understand dating dynamics but I can honestly say there are plenty of so called gurus I've seen who have trouble pulling women and the only ones that manage to pull are drunk sleazy types who would respond to any stimulus.
4) Judging others taste. This my friends is complete bullshit! What you like and what I like aren't the same. One of the best naturals I have ever met, in fact he'd put most of the community guys to shame, is an older black guy who is attracted to mainly tall, amazon like white women with big hips and big butts. He has a weakness for them. To me they are too big and chunky ( I've noticed a lot of black men like bigger women ), I tend to like thin Asian and white girls but I can't fault him because I have seen him pull a 10 that I would go for just for the simple fact that he can. We are too caught up in others opinions to value what we're attracted too. I know one guy who left the community because of that bullshit. He said he got tired of admitting that he liked nerdy girls who weren't model looking or even close but he was attracted to them. The black guy I had mentioned would own most of these guys who ridicule his taste in females! I think we can all agree that Miss Universe pageant contestants are beautiful but that doesn't everyone of us will be sexually interested in those types.
5) Stupid questions and Stupid Answers. Grrrrrr!!! She said this, what do I say next? I said hello to this girl and - "Don't say hello its what AFC's do!" I negged her and she didn't respond what is next? "You shouldn't take her to dinner, she will never be attracted to you now"
I can go forever with this. You get the picture though its the robotic questions and it's the guy who responds with text book answers. BS! Learn to socialize first, it will make things so much easier.
6) Product reliance. In another post I titled products, products, products I talked about a friend who had just about every product known to man yet is success wasn't that much greater than another friend who read forums and an ebook or two. When you rely on products and you're begging for more product it tells me that either you love information or you aren't approaching as many woman as you can and you feel that more products will solve what you're looking for.
1) Hero worship - Grrrrrr!!! PUA's are not messiahs. They fail! They are human. They sometimes bang less than desirable women. They go nights without approaching.

favorite quote from an Instructor
This is my favorite quote from an instructor I hung out with the other day
"It's funny that most of the guys in the community refer to most of the guys outside of the community as AFC's when I've found that a majority of guys in the community suck and I'd actually rather hang out with guys outside of the community because tend to be more grounded"
Yep I've found the same thing in having those guys you meet who say they are in the community and you hang out with them for a night and usually one or two things happen a) they are too scared to even say hello to a woman or b) they try to sarge everything including the cat and throw out way too many unnecessary 'negs' and try to be uber cool.
I think there's this pressure on guys when you meet them and you both know you're in the community to prove yourself to not look like a chump or whatever. Personally I don't give a damn. I'll sit there at the bar drinking Jack and Cokes and talking up a guy while watching babes go by and he'll keep saying "did you see her?" "Why didn't you talk to that one?" Why? Because I don't have too that's why. I'm not at a job, I'm not being scored and I'm not on a mission. When I want to game I game and when I don't I just sit back and chill.
So stop being weird, stop thinking that because you're in this community you know more about women than every other guy that's not in the community, it's okay to help your fellow man but if he doesn't want to have a flock of women or whatever then don't berate him for it - get out of that elitist mindset of us vs them, PUA vs AFC world or whatever dungeons and dragon jargon you have floating around in your head.

are you a candidate for greatness?
Whats makes one a candidate for mPUA / Guru or Natural status? I was thinking about this one night when I watched this guy out laughing and having everyone else around him entertained. While I didn't see him pull any babes I couldn't help but to notice how entertaining and fun he was and it made me realize that some guys are suited for greatness more than others. It's just like some guys being suited more to play college level or professional sports than other guys or any other walk of life. So when it comes to pickup here is what I think is a criteria for a person to become great:
1) Charisma (personality)
2) humor
3) courage
Thats it! Yep that about wraps up the things that are the criteria for being great. You confidence, and all of those other things can be worked on a grow but I've noticed guys with robotic/bland personalities and poor humor do poorly in this field. A guy I went to high schoool with was tall, well built and decent looking but he was the most boring, bland guy you'd ever meet. Granted he pulled his share of girlfriends but he always got dumped and when I would ask the girls why they'd say "he was boring, he never had anything to talk about, his jokes were awful" and so on. On the contrary one of my community friends was a class clown like someone who was a Saturday Night Live reject but still funny and had a good personality to say the least. He did very well with women when he discovered the community but he wasn't active that much in the community, instead he was always out and around town meeting women, going on dates and such. Humor and charisma are huge! Courage is just balls but guys with balls also do well yet you can't have balls and be fearless when it comes to talking to women if you don't have anything to say or no sense of humor.
Like I said the other things you can learn and gain in time: confidence, intrigue, rapport skills etc but if you want to be on top you have to have a personality to begin with.
1) Charisma (personality)
2) humor
3) courage

Products, products, products
I have a friend who sort of acts as my drug dealer. Well no I don't do drugs, at least not anymore but he keeps me well up to date on the latest products in the community and what he thinks. I swear this guy has every single dvd, cd, ebook, presentation and whatever else that has come out from all of the pua companies, gurus, and what not. Here's the funny thing though and even he'll admit it - he rarely hooks up with women. Not by choice but that's just the way it is. He's been in the community since the end of 06, took his bootcamp sometime in 07, and has been a community product collector since that time yet I've only seen a marginal increase in his game from 06 till now. He describes himself as an information junky and trust me the community supplies us with enough junk to cause us to overdose. The last thing most people need is another PUA product yet companies will find a way to push out something 'new' and something that 'has never been seen before' and something 99 percent of the men in this world don't know about something that will skyrocket your game, shall I keep going? You know the pitch. And I shake my head to the guy who has 400+ forum post but no fuck closes. And there are plenty out there. A lot of these guys are seen as the authority and when they review products people take their word for it. 'Simply put the best product on the market today!' How do you know when you don't even have any closes? Between 1998-2002 I had 85 closes from meeting all the way to sex and this was girls outside of my immediate social circle. This was before products and tons of theory. Back then it was trial and error, not a lot of thinking involved or a head full of theory.
There was a lot of hitting up clubs, malls, department stores etc and going for broke.
There was less approach anxiety also. We really didn't know what that was. Now it's like you have to have the right theory in your head or opening routine to go in and start talking. Back then it was basically 'Whats up!!" In a high energy manner in the bars or a low key "hey, whats up in the day time"
95 percent of community releases are rehashes, useless information or can be found free on forums, boards and from podcast. The other 5 percent is actually something that might be worthy of a look, read or listen. But it's like shuffling through a large box of hundreds of bowling balls to find the right one to fit you. Yep what may be good for you may not be good for the guy next to you. I can't tell you how many times I've read 'best product ever! Totally blew me away!' only to check it out myself and find it practically useless. Warning to self: never take advice from a 20 year old virgin who is fascinated with the latest greatest PUA products.
Imagine this. You're team gets a new coach and your friend is the new unseasoned quarterback and he comes to you and you say 'how is the new coach' and he says 'man this is the best offense ever!!' and 5 games into the season you've rarely scored any touchdowns. You see what I mean?
We're seeing a big release every 3 to 6 months. They're becoming like blockbuster movies. I can hardly wait till PUA products have trailers at the beginning for the next big thing! Hell I can hardly wait till Will Smith signs a deal with a PUA company to star in the next big release. That's kind of funny but I did hear a guru once say wouldn't it be cool if we had a celebrity of some sort to endorse us! And that was months before that overrated but entertaining television show on VH1 came out. Most of you guys don't need to watch or listen to anymore products. You just need a ton and I do mean a ton of practice. Get a good friend and go out weekend after weekend and make female friends and acquaintances and don't even focus on the pickup. Meet, greet, bounce to different spots, go to some unknown guys after hour party, go to Dennys, exchange numbers, start conversations, you know just go do it!
There was a lot of hitting up clubs, malls, department stores etc and going for broke.
