Preventing the Peter principle of PU

Several readers of our forum messaged me about my post regarding Sinn’s statement that 90% of guys going into this community will NOT get good. That was a wakeup call for me to evaluate my progress and it struck a chord among many. Where do those guys who never get good go? I suspect that they constitute the majority of members in most “seduction” forums.

From reading posts in several forums and getting to know a few members, I realize that most participants of forums can be broken down into 2 groups: (1) Keyboard jockeys, and (2) Guys who prey on (1). Why they are there? The ecology of seduction forums fosters an environment that isn’t supportive of guys who want to improve, but to keep guys who have petered out.

I’m quite sure that many seduction forums started with the main altruistic goal of helping guys improve their social skills, their lives, so that they have choice with women. As these forums age, who will have time and money to support them? In fact, most of us met in another forum and decided to leave it because it was neglected. And in order for these forums to exist and self-sustaining, how will we prevent the creeping commercialism? In addition, guys who became good moved on because there’s no incentive for them to stay: more time for pussies or dorky guys? Not a tough question to answer!

Then who stay behind? Guys who are trying to garner ego trips or to hustle a few easy bucks. When we formed this forum, we wanted to create something that will motivate guys to be good. Assuming some of us will be good, how will we keep those guys who became good around? How will we keep guys who are good instead of guys who just getting stuck at this? How will we call out guys who are in this for the ego trips when they obviously got no game?
