frat chapters

[Guest]

I think Tribululs has a good point and being around a lot of awkward guys definitely hurts. But it's also good to have support and share experiences in person. I think it's good for broadening your horizons as to what can work for some people. A girl once said BR was "pathetic" which I found fascinating because I would never have expected that, and I was really curious why she would say it. That kind of thing is very educational and a lot of insight can be gained.

And I would emphasize, that kind of insight is exceedingly hard to get through online discussion, which is why I so strongly emphasize the importance of meeting people in field. Which, to get back to the topic of this thread, relates to how closely tied the various local lairs are, or should be.

I am glad that we have friendships with the OK folks, but the question of a mega-lair with "chapters" in the various cities I think takes away from the personal nature of it.

So my next question would be, if one lair is affiliated or in some sense "friends" with another lair, what does that ultimately mean? How is it different from some individuals from one being friends with individuals from the other? Would an unknown person from OK (or Austin or Texarkana anywhere else) be considered differently from an unknown person from Dallas, because of their membership in a lair there?

well V, in our case...it would help differentiate us from the 'other' dallas lair...most obvious thing I could see. I've heard of similar stuff going down elsewhere...so be the friendliest lair of the city, get the association.

No offense to the other lair, but this one is the bomb, and super-friendly for the guys who are doing the damn thang. I think it's important to have lairs in other places that are accepting and supportive when members of other lairs come visiting. For example I'm heading to vegas tomorrow and the lair there has no time for visitors (which i kind of understand due to the nature of vegas and the amount of visitors) -- I don't know about the other members here, but if I'm going out I'll sarge with anyone from anywhere and help them as I can. For me it's not a competition -- your personal skills determine your personal success and I don't hold it against anyone who's better or worse, or from elsewhere. I want to help others, as others have helped me, and hope to receive the same in return when I visit elsewhere. I think the spirit of cameraderie is something we should definitely be fostering. The great thing about this lair is that it is not a bunch of dicks who care only about themselves and that is something we should embrace and expand on.

PS - I love you guys man!

PPS - You gonna get raped!!!

Here's where I'm coming from on this. The first time I went out with this lair, it was me, my brother and a guy from Tennessee. It was the one of first active things from anyone in the group. We had so much fun, we got together later that week. Welsh Dragon, Vector and a bunch of others were there.

If we can help build the kind of community elsewhere that we have here, I think we should. I don't think we should expand the board to ad in other cities but having a connection between lairs can only have a positive effect.

As far as that goes, I think there should be a Fort Worth chapter with it's own board, group and meet ups, and one in Denton and so on. The only problem is on one has stepped up in FTW or Denton, to charter it. That's not true about OK, they should have their own board with a strong strong community and we should help them grow.

That was by far one of the strangest interactions I've ever been involved in...

Usually I'm an asshole or jerk or cocky or stuck up or mean or cruel or....Jesus I sound like an asshole...never have I gotten 'pathetic' before. A change of pace is nice ;)

But, back to the subject. Why do we need to differentiate ourselves from the other lair? There are three in this city, and I've been a member of all of them. Each lair talks about the other lair, and eventually the better guys end up here (just my perspective from experience). We've already established ourselves as the active lair in Dallas, those that want to do this for real will definitely make their way to us. Those that are KJ will simply stay in the other lairs.

With respect to having credibility in another city just because we're a member of the Dallas Lair. Just because someone is a member of a lair doesn't mean they're any good. Being a member doesn't give you instant credibility. The fact is, and I suppose I'm not alone here, generally if I've never seen your game in action then you have no credibility with me. I expect the same to be true towards me. Period, end of story. Credibility and acceptance is something you earn on an individualistic basis, not something that is granted to you because you're a member of the Dallas Lair.

If sorority I needa dicka has a reputation for having hotties that love it up the ass while they eat out their best-friend's pussy, would you automatically assume that the faceless, nameless chick that you met off the Net from the same sorority would be hot, love it in the ass, and regularly eats her best-friend's pussy?

No, you wouldn't. And, if you would you're an idiot. Generalizations exist for a reason, so the odds are good, but yout still shouldn't just assume that they're like their whorish breathern.

You guys want to make affiliations that are lasting and credible? Visit some other cities, make friends with the board members, and try to bring them in the fold. Create your own credibility, your own friendships, your own relationships. Don't wait for the reputation of the Dallas Lair to do it for you.

Now you're getting in to micro-management. It will force our community to be more clique-ish than it already is. We have a primarily Dallas group (largest), a Fort Worth group (my crew), and quite a few in Denton that just go to the Dallas stuff primarily...

This shouldn't be viewed as the "DALLAS LAIR" but more of the DFW Lair. The Fort Worth crew is nothing more than a 'cell' of the DFW hub of our pussy terrorist network. We can and DO operate on our own, but keep affiliation with the hub...why am I breaking this down in to terrorist group terms?!?!? I need coffee.

I don't see a problem with links...that would give everyone a google rank bump and it would say to others, "HEY WE LIKE THESE GUYS." Keep it simple, stupid. This wouldn't allow people to ride the coat tails of our board's rep...if we've met main/importan/good guys from ____ lair...lets add a link to their board (if they do the same.)

I thought all women loved it in the ass while they ate out pussy?? Did I miss something? ;)

Vector, that is a good little story. Personally this shit cracks me up. At least once in a while I'll bump into a chick who literally hates my guts for no good reason and feels the need to verbalize that in no uncertain terms. I'm not talking about a pretend IOI or game playing either - just flat out hating. My regular wing will tell you this occasionally does happen and more than you would (or should) expect.

As you state there is a lot to be learnt from these kind of gut female reactions. If you look closely it is definitely attraction however some girls WILL NOT allow themselves to acknowledge those feelings. To be honest I have not pondered the anomoly too much and I definitely don't stick around long to analyze (I am a big screener). Either way you will see a lot of cool stuff hanging around guys who know their shit in field. Way more than you could ever learn here.

I was a little harsh on Trib and obviously he has a point. You have to be very very good for poorly calibrated guys not to pull your energy down. I don't mind the newbies/learners at all but haters are the worst because they know how to create negative vibes which just plain sucks (energy). The worst part is that, as part of your "group", you can't distance or tool them without creating a weird sort of enemy. Avoidance becomes the only realistic measure (as Trib points out). But hey .. you can always leave .. (with a girl) LOL
