Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 14 12:36 pm)
Content Advisory! This message contains profanity
Step 1: buy lots of porn
Step 2: ???
Step 3: Profit
Okay, seriously, look at what you're doing right now, and if it doesn't help you get to what you want, probably, do the opposite.
get rid of your XXX-Box (as my friends and I would call it) - give it away to a friend if you can't bring yourself to dump it.
I'm just guessing here, and I don't know how old you are, so you mileage will vary with this. Instead of looking for a girlfriend, look for a wife. Why do this? It will help you realize what you really want, and how you might need to change yourself.
Excitement is just for a little while, but fulfilment is forever (hopefully). Start thinking long term. If you do this, you might realize that all those people you liked before aren't really the best fit for you.
Everyone get's "rejected" at some point. Expect that this will happen more offen than not, and when it does happen, move on. There are lots of people out there you're compatable with, it's just a matter of finding them.

I wouldn't expect a reply. JosterD/Tebop almost never posts in his threads outside of the initial post.
"It is good to see ourselves as
others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we
are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not
angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi
from Seinfeld:
"Elaine : Ah, George, you know, that woman just looked at you.
George : So what? What am I supposed to do?
Elaine : Go talk to her.
George : Elaine, bald men, with no jobs, and no money, who live with their parents, don't approach strange women.
Jerry : Well here's your chance to try the opposite. Instead of tuna salad and being intimidated by women, chicken salad and going right up to them.
George : Yeah, I should do the opposite, I should.
Jerry : If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right.
George : Yes, I will do the opposite. I used to sit here and do nothing, and regret it for the rest of the day, so now I will do the opposite, and I will do something!"
Hmmmm - just ran "tebop" and "JosterD" through matmatic and got "troll". Wow, what script! Who would-a thunk? :biggrin:

If never posting a helpful answer to the forums and posting nothing but butt-stupid OT questions with pathetic subject lines that they never participate in again is a troll...
If you're going to post an image with nudity, PLEASE tag it.

No. the XXX-Box is not the X-Box from Microsoft. Sorry, only guys would get this.
Quote - wait a bit - is adroge saying that these x-boxes used by kids for "first-person-shooter games" can receive porno somehow? I did not know that. only that 10s of millions of 'em had their credit card info compromised.

Are you telling me I wasted all that time and effort in writing out my response to help this guy and he's just jerking us off (so to speak)?
Oh well, Anyway, while we're on the subject, I learned a long time ago a really great line to say in the face of rejection (if you ask a woman out and they say no). This guy I used to work with, thought he was God's gift to women, would be constantly asking women out and almost always getting rejected, and his "save" line would be, "Just thought I'd ask."
That always stuck with me, because it's a great exit line for rejection. It kind of says, okay no big deal, see ya. But of course I never got a chance to use it before I got married.
Quote - I think the OP, whichever name he happens to be using that day, just likes to sit back and watch what ensues from his, er, "questions" ;o). Is it trolling behavior? I guess it depends on who ya ask...lol. Laurie
Behaviour which makes me wish all the more for the "ignore" button - these individuals are energy vampyres, with motives exactly as you described, Laurie, no more. That one response he did give pretty much confirmed it. Oh well, any posts with the above names automatically get ignored now by this poster, at least. Not enough hours in the day to waste on people like him.

Funny, but I think the people who keep those threads going are worse than the OP. They're the ones feeding the discussion. If the threads were just ignored they would have stopped long ago.

Was thinking about the same thing.

I dunno. I agree with Dave-So. It's been interesting.
It's certainly been one of the more active threads, over the past few days, on a forum which seems to have sadly diminishing traffic. :sad: Seems like this place really used to hop and jump more than it does now.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking. He apologizes for this. He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.
Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below. His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.

Agree.
I don't mind OT threads like this that don't end up with ton of antagonism and hard feelings. We get to know the other forum members. Kinda builds/reinforces a sense of community. Trolls that don't bother to defend their original posts very vigorously aren't really all that bothersome. At least one of Joster's threads had me literally laughing out loud, even though, in a fit of sensitivity it was locked, and quite prematurely, I think.

And that suprises who exactly? :rolleyes:
This might work as in A, in the above image. Spoon Guy is sporting an impressively large spoon. This is not as common as a bright tie, showy car, or extreme facial piercings, but it could work. A big spoon is an instant conversation piece.
Spoon Guy is also hanging around with an obvious weirdo. This makes Spoon Guy look better by comparison. Possibly this is an example of the Hegelian Dialectic in use. At any rate, it could be a helpful trick.
You might also consider Bob's approach in image B. He has the jelly bean hat and the Amazing Lightning Pants happening. Dress flash, pull the chicks. If there's anything pop culture teaches us, isn't it just that? Go out and purchase some fab gear and use that as the peacock feathers which nature may have cruelly omitted.
So. Peacock feathers. That's all I've got.

I wouldn't want OP to use one of those dating sites. he might end up in some situation where he wakes up in tijuana with a kidney missing.
in re: spoons, cage brings up an excellent point IMVHO. just lookit how popular uri geller is with his spoon-bending™ , or even those guys in bars who see how long a spoon will stick to their forehead whilst somebody whacks the back of their head.

Ah, wrong way round. Apparently, we tend to judge people by the company we keep. We aren't compared to them; we're averaged with them. What I mean is that according to more than a few psychology studies, the more good looking our friends are, the more good looking we appear to be. The opposite is also true.
In other words, wanna catch a nice fish? Hang out with people who are well equipped fishermen. {edit} Oops. I mean, hang out with fishermen who are properly equipped to catch fish. {/edit}
Wanna catch a babe? Hang out with rich, good looking, charming, well-dressed guys. And if you can't manage that, at least leave the banana at home. ;)

Good idea! If nothing else, the site would probably have the most interesting and original avatars. :)

All joking aside, I have never wanted for female company. I don't think I'm some kind of irresistable sex god or anything; I'm just an average guy. Maybe I'm just lucky.
What I do know is, it helps to be a good talker as well as a good listener. If you're reasonably articulate and can talk about things other than beer, sport and sex, you're on the way. Women - they are human, after all and not some alien species - enjoy a good chat. It also helps if you have several interests and a broad range of subjects outside your personal obsessions. You may find this hard to believe but Poser is not - and never has been - the centre of my universe. It's not something I'd discuss in any detail other than with other 3Ders.
Also, there's a huge difference between confidence and arrogance. A lot of men don't seem to have worked that one out. In my experience, the women I've met tend to like guys who can handle themselves without throwing their weight around and who know what they're talking about.
Maybe my experience isn't so helpful because I've never been on the lookout for a GF and I've never used a line in my life. Whenever I got together with someone it's always been an accident of circumstance, a chance meeting or a friendship that went further than expected. Perhaps that's why I've been so lucky; I never acted like a predator.
My selection process would probably be different from most guys, too. I'm not in the least bit attracted to stupid people. Women who are pretty but dumb are a big no-no for me. Women who are pretty and very smart are a big turn on, though. I have to respect someone as an equal first and foremost.
In any event, just making friends is a lot of fun; it doesn't have to lead to anything more. If it does, that's a plus.

Ah, this is exactly what I mean when I say "charisma," but I wasn't able to describe it so succinctly. The whole post pretty much says it all. I spent a huge part of my youth believing that this was so obvious that surely everyone knew it. I really did believe that guys who insisted on using strings of moronic pick-up lines, talking about themselves non-stop, and arrogantly boasting were doing it precisely because they actually just enjoyed annoying women... As a result, the guys who treated women as though they had something interesting to say got a lot more attention. In the end, if you don't like hanging out with women, or you don't like talking to and listening to women, they probably won't like you very much for very long. It's hard to believe that this continues to be such a mystery to so many people. But I suppose I'm glad, in many ways, that it remains so because it means that average looking, working men can continue to find mates for the simple reason that they actually enjoy women's company. Exactly as it should be.

And that is exactly what makes you "some kind of irresistable sex god."
Most women like normal, average guys who don't try too hard to impress and don't come off as something they aren't.

That's how I feel about guys!
Physically I seem to gravitate to tall men with dark hair and dark eyes. After that it's all about the brains!
I have a pretty high IQ and I look for a guy who typically has an IQ higher than mine. One that can not only carry on a deep conversation, but also one that can have a conversation that is completely nonsensical and goofy!
The last guy I had a long term relationship with was like that, and the only part of the relationship I miss is our conversations. He was amazing to talk with, whether it was a seriously deep conversation, or just something whimsical.

Probably the best advice given in this thread.

I like smart people, and that includes men. If you can't have an intelligent conversation (about anything really) then I'm going to get bored quickly. And a good sense of humor is a definite must. While I've always liked a guy who can chat about nearly anything, I'm equally fond of silliness - done right ;o).

Use a good pick up line to make them laugh or beat the hell out of you. If it is the ladder atleast you got some physical contact with a women :)
Here are some examples.
"If I flip a coin whats my chances of getting head ?"
"Can I tickle your tummy from the inside?"
"If I jump on your back will you beat me off ?"
Just a few try them out you should get some reaction from them
