Hey s.casanova, how.....'effective' is PlentyofFish comparing to the Lavalife, Harmony and etc.? Is it just a 'speed dating' version of those (Lavalife, Harmony seems to be focused more on LTRs)?

I think knowing this, I find that I am finally able to do everything at 100%. To be honest guys, I'm reading everything you say here and I think it's wonderful. But I'm still totally unable to relate it to starcraft hardcore gaming / game fans or to teamliquid at all. Because unfortunately, while we would love the world to revolve around starcraft and gaming ... it is but a tiny fraction of your lives. Unless you wanna be that dude chilling in his mum's basement for the rest of his life, feel free to go ahead and do what you want. no one is stopping ya.
Wow life outside starcraft? I'm going to start right now!

1. Googled good PoF profiles. 2. Read a lot of other dudes profiles. Sounds gay, but you soon realize a pattern of lameness. Every dude writes the same shit. 3. Followed some guidelines from DJ Fuji. The profile has to be funny. You aren't writing a resume of your life here. Also, it needs to leave enough curiosity / mystery.

Dont kid yourself, if you're well built and put up shirtless pictures you will get a ton of messages on PoF regardless of what the rest of your profile says. That site is swarming with damaged girls looking for one night stands. Proof: remove shirtless pics and watch the volume of messages decrease drastically. At least that has been my experience with the site and therefore I don't use it and wouldn't recommend it for anyone unless they're just looking to hookup.

Looks matter, yes. But the content matters 50% if not more. I had a shitty profile with way less response.

Whole-heartedly agree with this. I don't think my profile PoF profile is any less funny, but the only messages I get are from 200 pound black chicks, and old women. Here is my profile. You guys can judge for yourselves.
How do I make you believe that I'm tall, smart, handsome, confident, and funny; that I'm everything you could possibly want in a man? If I just wrote I was, would you believe it without ever talking to me? If you do, then you should also know that we HAVE to meet up or the world will end. But of course, you have no reason to believe anything I write about myself. Why would you? You're a logical, cautious individual. Nevertheless, take just five minutes to read my life story, and if there is an ounce of doubt that I am not what I say I am, then go about your day. But if you do happen to see anything you like, or anything that brings a smile to your face, then please please message me. If I can make you smile or laugh from a profile, then why not in person? And I present… my life story.
My father was a well-respected doctor. Mother was a beautiful nurse with an even more beautiful heart. They fell in love one fateful spring under a blossoming oak tree. The fields beckoned to these two lovers like you to my profile. And from the seeds of the timeless oak came the seeds of my life. I was conceived under a giant tree, and that is why I am tall.
When I was four years old, daddy took us to the United States. I have to admit, the only English words I knew for a while were "good job, excellent, and superb" because that's all anyone ever said to me. For my fifth birthday, Father presented to me a dictionary. I would have easily memorized it all, but the problem was... I was five years old. For his birthday, I also gave him a dictionary. A dictionary I wrote, edited, and published myself. It had all the words anyone would ever need, "good job, excellent, and superb." Oh. And "I love you." I published my very own dictionary, and that is why I am smart.
The teenage years were not easy for me. Aside from protecting the suburbs of Northern Virginia from dangerous thugs at night, I also had to maintain my cover as a regular high school student during the day. And certainly, the one and only way to do this is to experiment with extreme hairstyles and facial expressions. As a result, my face has become so malleable that I can flex it to appeal to anyone. I was a protector of the streets, and that is why I am objectively handsome.
College was the best. My entire family flew in from China to drop me off. My first day on campus, I was already invited to ten parties, and had a 4.0 GPA without having taken a single class. When I walk across campus, squirrels scramble out of their nests to offer me nuts. Birds fly overhead to grant me shade. What can I say? I’ve been given a lot of love in life, and that is why I am confident. Oh. And I’m funny because I read a book on how to be funny. Thanks!

Meh. I wouldn't say your profile is amazing... its not terribly bad. It feels like your life story is too wordy and also, you seem to be qualifying yourself too hard.
Don't get me wrong, pictures DO MATTER. But there are ways to make your pictures look much better. It helps a lot that I do photography. You want various pictures to project yourself in a variety of different locations and situations so you look more sophisticated. I see tons of guys with great bodies who put up like 8 pictures of themselves shirtless. Its over kill and you look like a meathead. 1-2 pictures showing your physique and the girls get the point. Perhaps, post a few pictures and I can critique.

The first paragraph is good. I would just change the word "prance" in the third paragraph... a prance is like a horse's gait/strut. I think you meant to say pounce?
Is it a turnoff to girls to have other girls in profile pics?

Yeah, most girls online aren't your typical club girl. Too much flashy pics with girls may be a turn off. Thats why I just have one picture. But every girl is different so you never know. Good catch on the wording, I fixed it to "pounce".

Are you actually asking how to help them, or how to seduce them? Because your thread starts off asking what you need to do to console them and make them feel better, and then transitions into "what would PUAs do?"
If you're looking to console them and/or help them with their problems, then that's not a seduction issue. For that, you're better off asking therapists/counselors/etc. If you do want to seduce them, then the question I have for you is: why do you want to seduce low self-esteem emotional wrecks in the first place?

i ask what PUAs do because my understanding is a decent PUA has a clearer image of how to deal with people, seduction or not

See, the impression I get is that you're an average frustrated chump without a lot of romantic prospects. Girls tend to send you to let's-just-be-friends land and frequently use you as an emotional tampon when they need someone to whine to, but don't actually want to sleep with you. This happens because you're great at building rapport, but don't know how to escalate. Being an intelligent, logical person, you try to persuade girls that they should be with you instead of actually trying to turn them on. Consequently, certain types of low self-esteem girls use you to fulfill their emotional needs, while satisfying their physical needs with other dudes (who tend to be jerks).
Alphas disregard low self-esteem trainwrecks who use you without ever giving you the time of day, because they'd rather find stable, secure chicks who aim to please them. However, because you don't actually have a lot of sexual options, you're instead seeing consoling them as an opportunity to get into their pants. In which case, defining them as your "friends" is quite questionable since they're using you as an emotional tampon while you're just trying to take advantage of their misery to sleep with them.
That would be the 'clearer image' I'm getting, based on the limited information you've provided so far. Feel free to correct any areas where I'm mistaken, and I can provide some advice based on your clarifications.

e. He was depressed and suicidal because he has daddy issues. Actually most girls have these same issues and they end up being players and slutting around left and right. I know, I've dated 3 in the last year.

How'd you come to that conclusion? As far as I can tell, it's due to having bipolar and narcissitic personality disorders.
