Serious question, absolutely no judgment. I'm just curious.
I see a lot of folks toss around the "you beta cuck" insult and then I notice the poster will have 80k posts and I find that hard to reconcile. This is absolutely not a slam on people that have a lot of posts, everybody spends their free time differently and how you do that is your business. That being said, if you spend that much time online, you're probably not an alpha.
So what say you CP? Are you an alpha? Does being an alpha on a message board make you an alpha in real life? Can you be an alpha and spend that much time online? [Reply]
For what it’s worth, I don’t really think there’s necessarily some strict delineation between personality types. It’s more of a spectrum and I agree with Loochy that it is situational as well. [Reply]

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I try not to be but seems like I always get end up leading things I'm a part of because if I don't, it just ends up being done badly. [Reply]

A guy can't even get his finger amputated without you trying to fit in how important you think you are and humble bragging in the thread. That's insecurity and low self-esteem.

You need to add an e-alpha to the poll. Online alpha presence!
I think if you use the words alpha beta or cuck regularly you're a douchebag. Those are easy enough to spot and typically spend their time in DC here. [Reply]
There probably aren't a lot of true alphas posting frequently on a message board. Maybe some but I'd guess the results are skewed strongly towards less alphas. [Reply]

correct. The “real” alphas that can’t restrain themselves, I agree. I don’t think would post here and or would burn out pretty fast. [Reply]

You are correct, there are some real alpha males here and you would never know it. Do you want me to point out the difference between you and them? Again? [Reply]
