Its amazing how offended women can get at stuff...undoubtedly she would deny being a skank herself but she's just "so concerned for others" lol.
Shes actually very conservative and devout to her religion. Normally Im not compatible enough to be friends with someone like that, but she was still mad cool for some time. I was able to be myself around her, go to the bar with her and some friends and drink and dance (she didnt drink though), and tell her about my dating exploits.

I guess after a while she couldnt handle how I behaved with women or how I talked about some women. She acted as if I called all women sluts who were only good for sex, when I said I only thought that way about some women. No different from how women feel about certain guys.

Oh wells, I didnt care losing a friend who couldnt handle me as I truly am. She knew what she was getting when she met me.

And yet the many of the lasts posts in the thread were your own. By that point I had moved on. You on the other hand were ranting and raving to the wind.

More lies? You really are getting quite desperate.

bradd, your memory betrays you. Look back on that thread and you will see it was you who went off on a severe manic episode, which many posters agreed. I have no reason to get angry "debating" with users like you. There are users, on this forum whose opinion matters to me because their message has been congruent, they debate with logic, and they are by and large respectful to other posters unless provoked by insults. You are definitely not one of them.

And I too received PMs from respected members here, also noting how unreasonable you are as poster.

Again you are applying words like "anger" to my posts when there is none. This is projection at its finest and I recommend you take some time and cool off, hit the gym, get laid, whatever.

I only chose to expose your megalomania when you threatened to ban me on grounds that you yourself had fabricated.
And Im trying to see where we got angry or trolled in his thread before he started insulting us. All I saw was us disagreeing with those who were hating on Levine, and wondering why anyones so concerned with that mans life. Next thing you know the dude is calling people homos and just lashing out at folks who never even directly addressed him or insulted him.

There are 3 senior mods: Desdinova, Rollo, and myself. These three have banning powers. Even so, we always bring a prospective banning up for discussion in the mods' corner so that we can get everyone's perspective and input before taking any action. This is how we check ourselves and make sure we are not banning for personal or unfair reasons.

The process can add an extra day or two to a troll's activities, but we'd rather err on the side of caution than to be overly heavy-handed. Some people here dance around right at the edge of banable offenses, and they know it. If we decide that one of these people are generally causing strife and are clearly not contributing positively to the site (opposing views can be positive contributions, btw), we will consider pulling the trigger.

When a member who was banned returns with a different user name, I will usually re-ban them unless they are clearly changing their ways. In those cases I might let them stay and watch them closely for a while.

When you become a mod you find out just how much gray area there really is, and you have to weigh a lot of factors before taking action. We are very concerned about acting responsibly and doing what is best for the site in general, always walking that very fine line between acting quickly where quick action is needed, and sometimes giving the benefit of the doubt in the gray areas. Even though we walk that fine line and try to act for the benefit of all, it's a thankless job and it's impossible to make everyone happy.

But that comes with the territory of being a mod, and I'm not complaining because I knew that going in. I can certainly say that when I became a mod my eyes were opened to a lot of challenges that I wasn't aware of previously.

So the tl:dr here is that we mods always discuss carefully before banning, even if that means letting someone go on for a little too long, and we also try to act quickly where that is warranted. That's pretty much the reasoning behind what we do and how we do it.

Lmao Youre really one to talk about whining. Do I need to pull up your post history to refresh your memory? There is no damage control here buddy. You guys think I take this place that seriously? lolz get over yourself bro.
Calm down Jaylan. Take a deep breath before you give yourself a heart-attack. Don't give yourself high blood pressure over SoSuave. Stop taking it so seriously.

Relax bro. Relax....

Deep breaths!

PS - awesome bolding bro. Maybe you should start adding underlines, large font, and italics to your post.
That's actually a good idea.

I don't utilize the underlines, large font and italics nearly as much as a should.

What other tips do you have? Its very important that you approve of my writing style.

In other words, there was a strong suspicion that several posters in that thread (Jaylan, Social Leper, Peaks & Valleys) may have been the same person using different accounts. Such was their desperation to win a silly argument on an internet forum. [/B]
LOL

Strong suspicion....nice one Sherlock. Please let us know how your investigation into this matter of posters not agreeing with you unfolds.

You're hanging on by a thread here. Keep trying to prove your point and you'll end up burying yourself.

I have pointed out many times that the reasons Blacks in the US excel at these items are because they are one of the few ways out of the "Ghetto" for them.

They either.....

Make it in Sports
Make it in Fighting
Make it in Rap/Gangsta music
Make it in Gangs

Naturally this pushes many of them into sports, since they don't want to die in gangs and certainly don't want to be "too white" by studying. Should Whites or Asians be faced with similar circumstances, they would begin to show up in numbers to such sporting events the way Blacks do, and show equivalent success.
Speaking the truth. And to relate this all to sosuave......who said the quote years ago about AFCs, and as soon as one of them starts to climb out of the bucket, the rest pull them back down? Sort of how it is in the ghetto. They hate Colin Powell and look what all he's achieved.

Apparently criticism of any material produced by our dear moderator (in this instance, mostly copied from "Double Your Dating" and various other ebooks) is now a bannable offense as well.
actually that is the sole purpose of this entire website.
the sosuave website sales ebooks and other material and that is the only reason this website exists. all geared to help men with dating.
for anyone who doesn't believe me, go look at the main page.

this don juan forum was created by the owner of the website as a place that men could come in and ask each other questions and talk to each other about the material that they purchased.
all of the really good gemstone threads became articles on the hall of fame.

and yet, for some reason, perhaps because so many people were using the dj forum, they have allowed us all to use it for free for all this time.

however that free usage has rules. I don't know how long ago it was the last time that allen had to log in and post the rules however they were simple:
no flamebaiting other members and if you do, you will be banned from this forum.
that was the biggest pet peeve he seemed to have. tired of the drama so don't flamebait someone else just because you don't agree with their post or their thread.

he trusts the mods to do their jobs to the best of their abilities. they work on a volunteer basis and are human. they not only have to watch that threads don't get derailed and flamebaited but they also have to watch for trolls who come in to either advertise or create drama. they can tell how many ip accounts you have. multiple accounts is a bannable offense. therefore, if anyone is caught with more than one they can be banned.

i don't know what you did or didn't do and that's not my business. i am simply giving you guys a history lesson of forum rules for the day and reminding everyone why this website is here.

Not sure how what is written suggests otherwise. "dear moderator" refers to one in particular, not the moderation here as a whole. Perhaps you misread my post?

Besides, penkitten, you are talking to the wrong person.



Then why the loaded post?
the thread is entitled "when did sosuave become an authoritarian state?"

not "dear moderator"

which is why I clicked on it, and started reading it.

i'm just saying selling ebooks on how to get women is what they have always done here. that's all.

for all we know, the mod promoting an ebook that you were talking about could be allen or one of his businessmen friends. that's all.

have a good day!

Just to keep the conversation continuous without changing the discussion.








The problem with making truthful statements, is that white men are not allowed to make them.....or else they are misogynist or part of the kkk.



I am just pointing out why white men CANNOT say such things in public. You may have just lost a friend, but we can lose our jobs.

Speaking truth is treason in the empire of lies.

Look at George Zimmerman as an example. Ultimately there was no proof that he was not defending himself. But even after his day in court, Eric Holder and the DOJ are actively searching for any way possible that they can nail this guy on civil charges for profiling.

Look at Larry Summers and the venom against him for saying that men just have more aptitude than women at math and science.

It is easy for you to call out white men for "not saying anything publicly" when you don't have to pay the price for speaking, but those white men do have to pay a price

Obama, without any evidence of who is guilty or innocent, can say his son would look like Trayvon, or that the police acted stupidly in the Harvard professor instance that ended in beer at the White House. And he does not get called to task. But imagine, if the colors were reversed and a white President said such things without any evidence.....





Hustla I'm only telling you my experience as well. Yes gold teeth, which is strange since I grew up in a very small town but I can only guess he was up from the city for some reason.


I would not judge fighting ability based on Boxing, MMA or even sports. I have pointed out many times that the reasons Blacks in the US excel at these items are because they are one of the few ways out of the "Ghetto" for them.

They either.....

Make it in Sports
Make it in Fighting
Make it in Rap/Gangsta music

:yes: fair enough but, alot blacks do see college as "white folks sh!t" :crackup:

The poverty line thing has been an observation done by analysts going both ways of proving true and false. But, an all time great, fighter of the decade, some of the most brutal wins the past 12 years, and one of the most feared boxers in his prime was an Asian, and Bruce lee was Asian. So being good academically never stopped no asian.

Even that MMA garbage eventually got taken over by brown, yellow, and black men. Not that I watch it, but I just remember how Boxing promoters and ESPN constantly sh!tted on Dana White and Joe Rogan, saying "I told you so". I told you so being that MMA was only popular because "A bunch of skinhead whiteboys watched it"(words from Bob Arum). Once their heros start getting their asses kicked by non-white men they will quit watching. Ironically that WWF superstar that made MMA big I forget his name got destroyed by a Mexican and the buyrates have been down since.(I don't watch I just remember my amigos in highschool kept laughing about it) So we going to have to agree to disagree on this :p

^Case in point. Disagreement, then character attack.

Actually, if that last thread you created was any indication, you brad are the person who seems to find winning an internet forum argument rather important.
