Ok this is something I hear constantly from new guys. They love to ask questions about how they can game some girl they've never met on myspace, or AIM. I'm always nice and give them some advice but here's the real deal guys. The game is played person to person, and the internet will never be able to match up to that. I've noticed this stuff really applies when you're in field. You have to be out talking to people to build and forge connections. Yes you can game on the internet but it shouldn't become a crutch you depend on to get dates. If you're not out in field practicing you're not practicing the way you really should be. The internet or phone should be used after meeting someone and then time bridging. Otherwise it seems like you're wasting valuable time that could be spent learning.
I completely agree with Wild One. I have done a lot of Online Sarging and spent even more time in the field. To quote Style "Make online sarging a side project and not your primary focus." I fell into the trap and didn't get out in the field often and I lost some social skills I've learned. Felt like I took a few steps back.
You can meet some great people online, and work them from the Internet to the Phone to in Person. This might take a few hours, a day, multiple days, or even a week. So don't make this your primary focus. You learn more in one night of opening multiple sets in the field than you typically will in a few weeks of online sarging.
