Will it become, say, in 2-3 years time passé to have had an IG account?

I wouldn't be too surprised if, in 2020 people will say, blushing all over their face "Yeah, I had had IG account, but I didn't really use, I mean, everyone had one, right??"

Doubt it will be dead by 2020. Growth numbers are still up and it's still hot. MySpace was a shit, bloated product. Instagram is minimalist and focused. I see it sticking around for a while.

Only applies to Chads and/or Instagram social circle game. Girls aren't just going to randomly like a photo of a guy they don't know unless he's ridiculously attractive OR she's unattractive (notice how the fat 5 at the beginning said her strategy is to DM guys directly). I have 12K followers, good photos, and random girls do not DM me.

Guys on here need to be following girls and liking 1-2 of their photos on a volume basis. The interested ones will follow you back, and the more photos of yours they like, the more interested they are. That's when you slide.

I watched that video. I wouldn't take these girls' words too seriously because quite a few of them were clearly inebriated, but I couldn't fathom why all these people kept repeating the phrase 'like a pig?' all the time? I think I'm just out of the cool IG sociolect loop continuously referring to farm animals.

Followliker has been blocking me out of login lately (wants me to "verify a code in my email") but I never get an email, so I've resorted to doing things the manual way.

When I'm on the pot or killing time, I'll spend five minutes or so going through local cities and liking photos and following girls that tag their locations in those cities. I then wait for the follow back, and if they follow back, I DM them. Here's one such girl and an example of my very basic text game:




It's almost never this easy, so I'm curious about this one. Doesn't seem like she'll want to hook up on the first date.

[Ten Feet Tall Right Now]

Can anyone recommend a good autoliker bot app that is free or minimal cost? I’d be willing to pay something around $10/month for 400-500 followers.

I don’t really care about getting 10,000 followers. I need a less balanced follow/follower ratio (currently 1:1) with more diversity in terms of more male followers.

I’ve managed to reach 1000 followers organically. Downside is I’m following about the same amount. It’s a zero sum game.

Even worse problem is they are 99% young women (from real interactions). It’s too time consuming to unfollow them manually. If I continue on this path it’s going to look very weird that I’m not only followed by, but also exclusively following, ten thousand young women.

I just had my first serious IG stalker. Happy one thousandth... I’m guessing it is a thirsty Asian girl (I may not have even banged her).

Bitch starting contacting girls who recently followed me. Swore them to secrecy and sent a photo of “my baby” with her. Ouch, right?

She pointed out all my follows and followers are girls. Pointed out I must have had sex with 1000 women (more like 200-300).

My followers were so dumb they believed this obvious scam. Her account was clearly a dupe like “monaeeeeee” with like 10 pics. Girls still had doubts when I pointed out the baby was obviously 100% white. Yet supposed mom is 100% ASIAN.

I did a reverse google search. Posted the random profile she swiped the photo off. Even then some girls were still chatting my stalker like “girl power”.

I’ve heard of scams like this where the girl asks for money. I got nothing like that. It was purely vindictive. There’s a chance she’s still doing it and I don’t even know.

About the only safeguard is to have an autoliker constantly adding new followers. This makes it impossible for a stalker to sort out which ones are girls you’ve met/intend to meet.

Another thing I learned. Don’t let chicks know your exact travel plans. She was primarily targeting followers in my current and next destination. Imagine some random girl unraveling your pipeline so easily.

How do you manually grow your account to say 1000. I'd like to know for knowledge of the basics. Mine is more arty.

He's manually following other accounts I'm guessing, ones with similar interests or in the same city as him.

[Ten Feet Tall Right Now]

Exactly. Even the low value massage girls that approach me on the street. They don’t realize they are interacting with an IG machine boy

[pancakemouse]

I've been having a tough time getting engagement on my photos over the last six months or so due to how Instagram structures their algorithm. My photos only get about 250 organic likes despite having 12K+ followers.

I wonder if girls notice.

[Rhyme or Reason]

I've been thinking of starting up a personal IG that is separate from my music's page, Is it worth doing at this point?

The thing is, I hate taking photos and I'm not sure what my niche would be. I hate posting pics of myself (mostly because on my current page I have my friends on there and whatnot and don't really like that).


Seems a lot of you guys post travel pics. I don't really travel. Can someone here suggest a niche?

Cool, attractive guy with status and money.

when I manually follow accounts they don't usually follow back. I get more people following from hashtags, but they don't usually last long, if I don't keep posting stuff, if say I'm busy that week.

[DJ-Matt]

GMT 2 is still working good for me, with my two niche hashtags running most of the day I'm racking up over 100 new followers a month. Just cracked 1,200 but I don't think this is enough to help with girls since I check the Tinder hoes accounts out and most have at least that much.

100 new followers a month is super low numbers. I recommend upping your parameters to speed up the process.

That's because the people following you from hashtags are running their own bots, and unfollow you within a couple days if you don't follow back.

I'm a novice musician and started up a Followliker for a music project. I was dubious that a botted IG account would help -- I would think soundcloud would be more appropriate -- but I have had some event promoters from other cities DM me for samples of my work.

I can't see this being particularly efficient for gaming though. I generally think you know and she knows within the first 5-10 minutes of an approach or meetup if it's on. I don't see the point in forcing in internet bullshit when two people are feelin' it. I'm open to my perception being wrong though.

1/ The IG account can turn "maybe" girls into "yes" girls. Hot girls have too much going on and too many sausages that are competing for them. If you are only going for girls that are into it at the start, you are missing out on all the 50/50 girls.
2/ The attraction can fade overtime, hence flaky numbers / buyer's remorse.
3/ Can get not available girls to hit you up when they become available.

By no means do you need IG for game. It takes effort and time but adds another string to to your bow. Once you get it optimized you will be surprised how lazy you can with it and let the girls do the work for you.

[Salesian]

Fair points. As it is I ignore 'maybe' girls quickly, I don't have to time to be bothered with em.

[tobehero]

Not sure if you said that to appear "cool" on an online forum.

You might get run over by a bus tomorrow. Life is too short to waste on girls sending you one-word replies, man.

talked to a couple of guys who are definitely getting laid a lot from instagram. Personally I've just stopped caring about how i look on it, i rarely post and when i do it's mostly stories about random shit, maybe i'll reorganise in the future but I've not really lost any followers so it seems the people who follow actually like me for the sad shit I must post .

[pancakemouse]

Testing out a new FollowLiker strategy: I'm following the followers of five sorority Instagram accounts at my local university and liking two of their photos.

After two days, no real results to speak of yet. I'll run this for a week and see if it yields any fruit.

[pancakemouse]

A while back I posted about the "Pancake Instagram close": https://pancakemouse.wordpress.com/2018/...ncake-way/

Essentially, after a daygame or nightgame interaction, you grab her phone, have her follow you, and then DM you as her with a flirty message.

I've been noticing a trend of girls blocking me on Instagram a couple hours later. The message disappears and so do they. It happened to me three times today. All of the closes were weak closes, e.g. the girls didn't really hook. So be on the lookout for that.

I don't think this has any bearing on the medium of the close, because I don't think they would have responded to a text either. At least I felt like I gave them the chance to check out my Instagram and see that I was purportedly high value.

[WannaBang]

I was using followliker for a while (unfortunately after they introduced the monthly fee). I'd rather pay one off payment for life than pay monthly. Is there a program equal to followliker in terms of quality that fits the bill so to speak? Specifically for mac

[Salesian]

When I hit ~800 on IG using FollowLiker I disabled it to test out a theory, that it was fucking up my ability to focus.

I'm a programmer so my ability to focus is my bread and butter. Beyond that I work on music, and focus is especially needed for that.

Soon as I disabled my Instagram account I began getting more work done and was better able to concentrate during the day.

This thread was useful, and IG is probably useful for game, but the cost to my productivity was too much.

[Salesian]

Also, btw, I noticed two IOI's today. I got an IOI from a girl when I walked into a grocery store, then later got one from another girl when I was headed to the automatic checkout counter. The same girl then gave a proximity IOI when she stood directly in my field of vision while I was checking out my groceries.

I noticed these IOI's way more clearly than when I was e-flirting with girls thousands of miles away via IG. It could be that reliance on e-dating things like Tinder IG etc fuck up instinctual social acuity and dudes miss signals. Jus t a thought.
