Some of you guys weren't around when AD was here, so you may not have been warned that reading his posts, to be sure place what he states in the proper context. He gave advice that was used primarily to get us out of our desperate habits, not necessarily to become more effective "DJ"s.
That being said, I don't think you all get the jist of what Anti-Dump was trying to state. While he did say that he was against flirting, read his entire reply and you'll comprehend that he was only against it for the sake "telegraphing" romantic interest.
Flirting and kino are fine, but only if its a genuine part of your personality, and not just some empty tactic used for the slim hope that her IL will raise. In the case of flirting and kinoing just to impress a girl, Anti-Dump was right. Flirting would just be another form of supplication.
However, if you develop yourself such that you are naturally open and comfortable with women, kino and flirting become apart of your true personality, and is not just some "weapon in your DJ arsenal". Women can tell the difference.
I don't think AD was against flirting, but rather against tactical flirting just for sake of impressing women. Whether or not you follow AD's advice depends alot on your level of experience and your ability to control your own emotions. Anyone with a decent level of experience can and should flirt. However, for any inexperienced guy who lacks the intuitiveness needed to flirt effectively, Anti-Dump's advice is still spot on. Newbies need rules and this one remains as a good one to follow... then over time... break
