I used to think that this stuff had no effect, but my opinion has reversed itself lately.
Asian countries are getting harder by the year and a big factor is the shitty foreigners who fuck it up for us. Japan has gone from full-on pussy paradise to challenging even for well-integrated expats - all that within just 10 years or so.
Even this forum plays a somewhat negative role. There are just too many lurkers who contribute nothing but soak up all the value offered. You'd be amazed how many people have read the Philippines and Colombia threads.
If you find an amazing spot, tell other members about it over beers but don't post a datasheet unless you want to see that town ruined in record time. We could really do with a members-only section in my view.
The real fuckup is the hordes of followers who stand on the backs of pioneers anywhere and everywhere, but it's impossible to stop and information once shared on the internet isn't going away.
Is Roosh going to shut down his major draw on his forum (and for Google)? No he won't and so information is now out there along with easier than ever international airflights, AirBNB and Uber for the masses to engage in a bit of international playboy dilly-dallying all the while finding time to update their exploits on social media to more thirsty gap year betas back home, who can then yet again follow the beaten track.
As for those fools posted here, the geeks in Taiwan, we're dealing with a particularly nasty type infecting Asia in increasing numbers, the asperger-millenial-youth. Where in the past those who did not understand normal acceptable social behavior would have the good decency to not flaunt it, with the millienial obsession of wanting attention at all costs, in this case as others, through Youtube, now you have legions of socially maladjusted fools roaming Asia through an iphone lens with the goal not so much tight young pussy, but the likes and +1s to be had from sharing it.
Of course a huge portion of foreigners in Asia have always been maladjusted, but generally maladjusted with certain likeable traits. One of which were to be happy and praise your great luck of having hacked the system.
I doubt anything can be done to stop it, it will only get worse, while living conditions and ease will go up. I can't say I miss the pre-RVF internet era when information on getting with foreign girls were relegated to world sex guide and ramblings of clueless expats. Nor do I miss the pre-Google Map period where finding a store involved driving for hours in traffic and asking 50 people directions. On the other hand, despite all these annoyances, the quality of girls I hooked up with were decisively hotter, and getting older (but in no way old) doesn't explain it fully.
Even so, as we bitch and moan, the real adventurers are already seeking new avenues in Burma, Central Asia, smaller Indonesian cities and so on. And fortunately game if not the magic bullet, absolutely still gives everyone an advantage compared to the hordes.
