The outstanding issue I have with the Flood regarding girls is their flat-out obsession with them. An anonymous internet forum is not the correct nor intelligent place to try out compliments and study the behavior of the opposite gender in the hopes that when you actually interact with a girl in person, you won't cream and shit your pants simultaneously.
I don't do in-depth thinking into this issue like I do with others, so if someone easily pokes holes in my line of thinking or analysis, I'm not going to be surprised. As far as I've observed, it's an inevitable conclusion that a higher concentration of people here are less socially active than your average Joe. That's not to say everyone is, far from it, but the internet is the internet, it stereotypically houses a specific category of people, and sometimes you can back that up well.
Consequently, a mean level of adequacy with interacting with girls might by a tad lower than average for the people of this forum. Anonymity provides a virtually repercussion-free outlet to cram as much attempts at wooing or just casual talking with women as you possibly can which, from what I've observed is usually the reason that any time a girl posts in a picture thread, a 75+ reply indication follows it.
I can't get inside the heads of all the girls of the internet, let alone this forum, and figure out whether or not they think it's annoying. However, I know that if I was in their position, I would eventually get pissed off. Why? Because compliments are nice and all, but if you're responding to me only because of my genitalia, then you probably don't even give a damn about what I'm saying, you're just there to have the mental satisfaction of interacting with a girl.

But you made that up. Literally three days after it happened, you got on Xbox, said "Winy I bet you came when Felicia called you handsome," to which I probably laughed and sarcastically remarked "Yes, of course." And now you've entered, like, three threads saying "Winy came when Felicia called him handsome lolololol bbq."

I can speak from experience. Interacting with females on the Internet has helped me speak with them in real life [i]immensely[/i].

Edited by Winy: 7/18/2013 3:28:37 AMReally? Huh, completely foreign concept to me. I was drawing that idea from what I had assumed was an established notion that social interaction on the internet isn't something that can be well-translated to real-life interaction. The way that I see people speaking to each other on this forum, or the internet as a whole, is usually very different from the way that they speak normally. Mannerisms, quirks, all of these things inevitably disappear once you begin to communicate through text, for the obvious reason that those things become irrelevant. To me, observing these things during social situations is a key way I understand not only people's social habits, but just what's going on inside their heads. You can certainly draw some things from one to the other, but I've always figured the tie wasn't strong enough to gather a significant amount of experience to use it.

Yeah, I mean, it's obviously not going to be for everybody. Works for me. I try to be covert about it, though. The way I compliment people is like... Like, you know how you can accidentally insult someone if you say something like, "oh, I think he's a little younger than you, dad", implying that your dad is an old man. I can reverse that. "Oh, you have a boyfriend? That makes sense" implying that she's attractive, and therefore [i]would[/i] have a boyfriend. I'm never like, "you have a nice ass". That's not appropriate in any situation. And nothing like, "wow, you have nice eyes" even though that's innocuous, it still makes it obvious, like, "I'm only complimenting you to get you to like me". The example I posted above is just a covert way of going about it that leaves a cool impression. In my experience. Some people just don't think very much about these things.

Now when you're speaking about exercising these, for lack of a better term, "tactics," are you speaking specifically about this forum?
