Medellin Reports

[James Dandy]

I have never posted anything about myself that wasn't 100 % true and provable. You're still sore cause you got chumped awhile back, by me while you were defending Mr Enternational. This week you are attacking him. You can't even keep the players straight much less what each person said, nor do you seem to be able to get along with anyone for very long.

If you are going to quote someone, you have to be accurate as to exactly what was said and who said it, otherwise it makes you look like an idiot. Waiting weeks to take a cheap shot at someone only shows everyone here what a sad little man you must be.

Well Grandpa, I didn't comment at the time but since you inserted yourself again it seemed ripe. As far as supporting Enternational before when I thought he had valid insights I still stand by that, I agreed with a lot of it, just like I stand by what I said most recently when I didn't agree with him at all on messing with homeless people. Unlike yourself, I am not a permanent fanboy of somebody just so they will like me. It's like you stroking Jake all the time, it's hard to take anything you say about him seriously because it's filtered through your rose colored glasses. You sound like a teenage girl in love, but not smart enough to realize Jake wouldn't hang out with you for 10 minutes if you weren't paying him hard.

As far as your comment here at ISG about killing hundreds of people sometime in your past, I agree with some others that nominated this as the most ridiculous ISG comment of the year. Even if all of us weren't total strangers, that might be something you want to keep to yourself going forward. I can't imagine a reason somebody would say something so stupid, but I'm pretty sure it won't make the ladies wet!

Since I don't want to further clutter up the board and I've said what I have to say on this and recent topics, I'll let you have the last word.

I think this last paragraph is right on. While many guys will (legitimately) feel unsafe in Centro, some guys won't feel uncomfortable at all. Hell, I know guys Gringos who have hung in the roughest Favelas in Rio. It's a good idea to err on the side of caution (especially for a first-timer), but we are all different and have varying tolerance levels for danger.

Agreed, I use to hang out at the gun party on Sunday nights in Rocinha in Brazil. Rocinha is the largest favella in Latin America. This was a fun party, but if you are not comfortable seeing young boys walking around with AK 47's' and M16's high on cocaine patrolling the party with open drug sales. It was not for you. But if you were comfortable in that environment you could meet some hot chick's and have fun. Again, this is not for everyone and it should not be only if your comfortable in that environment. This forum is a mix of everyone who is different. Not every story here should be the same or it would be boring.

[Mr Enternational]

It was very scary when I stayed at my girl's house in Barrio Quinta Linda the other night. I felt like somone was going to beat me up and take my phone when I took these pictures. Good thing I was able to suck it up and be brave. Next time I better just stay at the Mansion where it is safe.

[Mr Adventure]

You're right, understandably I mixed up Advantageous with Adventure, but I was still referring to you and your inane posts like where you arranged a few hundred people in coffins. Besides your names, the quality and tone of you and Advantageous' posts are similar.

Much appreciated. I think a chica friendly hotel is the way to go, as last time I was there I spent part of the time in an apartment building with a doorman and didn't want to deal with that aspect. I assume I will find that info by RTFF!

You mentioned that you are only going to be in the hotel for two days. So it depends on how many girls you plan on taking back to your room. If you book the room for two people then you register the first girl as your g / f and you will have no problems. The problems start when you start trying to bring 2, 3 or 4 girls up if that is your plan you will definitely need a chica friendly hotel.

If I am staying in a hotel just for a couple days I frequently stay at the Poblado Plaza across from the Hard Rock, in August I had no problem bringing in 2 different girls but they were dressed decently. November was a different story, new dude working the front desk and my girl showed up looking like she shopped at Hookers are' Us and she got stopped. No problem when they called me I just went down and registered her as g / f and up we went. As I was only there for 2 nights it wasn't hard to deal with as I hit Lindas chicas that night and next night Fase 2 so didn't have to register a second girl and pay a fee.

I thought this is what the forum was all about people sharing there stories that all of us cannot do. I find it interesting and entertaining. Not everyone can do what someone else does and that is the point to listen to different stories. You cannot tell another man what to do you can give your opinion, but a man has to make his own decisions and do what they want. Some people can do things other people cannot do just that simple. I have been all over and people will say if your black you cannot go to a club and meet hot chick's in this country then I walk in with new hip hop songs not released yet and hand to the dj and chick's I am suppose to not meet want my number. Do what you want your life live it. I am never telling another man not to do something only give my thought. His decision his choice never bitter and unhappy if another man does something different from me. I am all for him. Babies and children need a parent not a man.

I will share this last point some people are comfortable being in areas late night that others will not go. But, those people might have grown up in bad areas and trust me if you grow up in tough areas and for some of you it might not make sense but they are comfortable in that environment and trust me if you know anything about the streets people see who is nervous and not comfortable. That is the streets that is why not everyone can do the same thing you have to know your lane.

I don't know who James Dandy thinks he is addressing as member Advantages described his wingman and self as " to give you a quick background we're late 20's / early 30's, non-White, and aren't unfamiliar with high murder rate cities (in no means is that bragging, it's actually kind of a bummer), which I've heard makes us a bit less susceptible to gringo crime as long as we dress down. ". (post #18153).

I was with you James 100% on the stay classy theme, but then you went off the rails, these guys weren't even born during Nam.

Maybe this will help:

Besides your names, the quality and tone of you and Advantageous' posts are similar. I don't care that you agreed with me on the other issue, but do apologize for attributing his comment to you.

Now lets all get back to being tough guys and get in some homeless people's faces! We're from the mean streets, so we've earned the right to pick on glue-sniffers and people with no shoes, it doesn't matter if they don't like their pics being taken, we're going to put them on the internet too! The more destitute the better, and don't show any respect by asking permission, just take them. We would never act this way to anybody else because we might embarrass ourselves or get punched out, but it's ok because they're homeless losers that can barely stand up straight, so what are they gonna do?!

[Mr Adventure]

Haha, this coming from a guy that needs a gringo pimp in Medellin just so he feels safe. You're a roller alright!

I have to change my opinion on Jake, he really deserves every dollar he charges if he has to drag crusty old retards like Advantageous all over centro and put up with his nonstop, self-emasculating drivel like how many people he killed in 'Nam. I now realize Jake has the toughest job in the world, power to him. He should raise his prices.

My crazy ass wingman had me walking through downtown at 2 am making Crackhead Documentaries. Going up to people putting the phone in their face saying foto, foto. I had my Galaxy S5 while he had his whatever phone he has. No problems. Some were glad to be stars in the videos and fotos and have the attention, while others were not so happy about it. We did meet an old lady who was selling pussy for 20 k and some nice young chicks (25,25, 19) who were smoking weed together and selling pussy for 20 k as well.

FOH with all this "ooooh but what about that crackhead's feelings shit", LOL! I swear, you two gentlemen of outstanding moral fiber should save that BS for the UNESCO forum, not a site dedicated to sex tourism. Also, the folks most scared of lions are the ones that have never truly been to the savanna. Take that as you will.

[Advantageous]

I don't see the fun.

Try again until you meet these guys (Bronx, Bogota). They might be happy to explain, with practical demonstration, that in a safari one could meet antelopes but also lions.

So your intent was to tell us how brave you are, not that you're an idiot taking unnecessary risks, or abusive to the downtrodden? I get it now.

Those young guys's lives have officially been ruined, or bettered, depending how you look at it.

Bettered! You just helped these young men out a lot. In my experience, women in the US tend to respond better when you're not sweating them as hard. A 5 knows that she's a 5. And if you're treating her like a 10 then she thinks you're lame and treats you as such.

[Recks1980]

Dude everyone has a gay or a dope fiend in their family. It is not about making fun of anyone. I am from the streets and have seen it all 30 times. And you don't think that homeless people like to have fun too? The point is that everyone on this board is so scared shitless of their own damn shadow (do this, don't do that, wear this, don't wear that) but I have proved time and time again in downtown Medellin and Santa Fe in Bogota that there is nothing to be scared of AND you can wear what the fuck you want. Or maybe the people out to do harm can sense the fear of a mark no matter what they have on or what they are carrying, and will try that person.

As far as using a phone in a casa, that has nothing to do with nothing. You can walk into most casas including New Life and use your phone all day long and nobody will say shit to you. In the strip clubs and certain other casas you can even take pictures in the common areas as we were doing yesterday. So as far as I am concerned that was a one off thing and had nothing to do with being a clown as you call it.

Classy in a hohouse? LOL. That is a good one.

I don't really see the appeal. Also growing up in Urban America. I am aware that it's generally a bad idea to go to other "hoods" with a camera and video people. What "streets" are you from where this is acceptable and will result in a happy ending for you? LOL.

First thing I would do is email the Mansion every couple of weeks to see if there have been cancellations. If nothing opens up you could either get an apartment the first two days, a chica friendly hotel or even give Jake a try. Guys with no spanish and no experience here survive without jake or the mansion so it can be done but it is an option. Regardless where you stay I would hit some casas and strip clubs at night and gather some numbers and do the same your 3 nights in the mansion and then your 2 days at end of trip just stay in apartment and invite your favorites back.

Much appreciated. I think a chica friendly hotel is the way to go, as last time I was there I spent part of the time in an apartment building with a doorman and didn't want to deal with that aspect. I assume I will find that info by RTFF!
