Winston, you have to make the forum more popular

Oh, forgot to mention Larry Elterman's book on the Philippines. That's a good source of information too. Does Larry post here anymore?

Winston needs to be getting more social traffic from twitter and facebook. He is too reliant on Google traffic, which could get cut off overnight.

All the paranormal and random stuff (e.g. stonehenge built in the 1950's) should be stuck on another forum, as should most stuff not related to actually going abroad.

While we get traffic related to job quitting, ladies and travelling, we're not an authority here for visas and other stuff that guys really need questions answering.

I still enjoy coming to this forum but it will always be limited in that very little of the content is actually about being Happier Abroad. I have the most respect for those members that are out there traveling and experiencing the world and/or are successful finding international ladies for dating/marriage.

Instead most of the material is centered around discussing flaws of western women, feminism, being lonely, social isolation, decay of western society etc. Hey nothing at all wrong with this content but make no mistake, it accounts for 80% of the discussions on HA ad it can get redundant. Personally I don't read any long overthought essays because I have my own set of eyes. I already know the most of the issues and problems that exist in the AngloSphere so no need to sit around and wax poetic on these over discussed topics.

I'd love to see more of a voice from expats that are out there living abroad similar to JC over at RetireCheapAsia.com.

I agree. I do enjoy the bitching but it would be nice if there was more positive stuff to contrast it with. That's not directly Winston's fault because if people want to bitch that's what they'll do but there should be more emphasis on what it means to be happier abroad. The forum should be tailored for that.

This forum is a great idea but it's not living up to its potential. I'd like to see videos highlighting the difference between western and foreign women (a bit like the foreign encounters videos), pictures, stories, interviews, I don't know, anything. Something to really inspire. Obviously it's down to posters to do this but clearly no one feels inspired to do it, and I think that is an issue with the forum itself, it needs to be focused on that type of thing.

And more members. I come here every day and more often than not I don't stick around for long because there's not much going on. And there should be.

Doesn't even remotely compare to the RooshV forum, if you want actual information about how to get next to women abroad. Roosh's place has a player vibe that is kind of offputting, but those guys are out there on the ground cranking out real information.

Speaking of Roosh:
