My opinion about Implant Longevity: - Worry is the Thief of Joy

[RigiconDownUnder]

Y’all are giving him waaaay too much credit. He’s a “concern troll”. Concern trolls pretend to be concerned about people that have a particular ailment, but are really just there to sow discord and make them feel bad about themselves. Message boards for people who are dieting or overweight are common stomping grounds for concern trolls. They do it for the lulz.

This guy uses AI to generate almost everything he does. He doesn’t actually know jack about anything, he’s just using AI. It’s highly doubtful he even has ED. He’s here to play a game, the game is to see if he can make you feel bad. When you express that he makes you feel bad, he gets off. It’s a game, he wants to win at it.

It’s annoying. But it is what it is. If it makes you feel better, just recognize how fucked up his life must be that he once spent inordinate amounts of time managing multiple accounts and using AI to create different personas and whatnot, all so he could troll a message board. And then he got caught and lost at his own game! Ever since he got exposed he spends less and less time here, because the lulz he got out of it is gone. Just ignore him.

So you think what Cololovin (me) said is trolling? What do I expect from the cult leader and the cheapest sales rep? Absolutely.

Yes, I'm using AI for better articulation and grammar correction. Even if those points were made solely by AI, did you refute them? What's wrong with using AI? If somebody used AI for asskissing the industry, would you bark the same way? Just a cheap sales-rep Karen creating a fog. Sales reps usually lack some integrity to sell their product, but you, my friend, stand alone... a shameless whore.

Don't worry. Since my ED is lifelong and implant durability is an area of interest for me, I will continue to be after your ass and expose sales reps like you.

But keep posting about how implants optimize skydiving-suit performance, and keep shutting down those who question implant reliability. You are a good example of how badly the industry uses cheap propaganda.

Rigicon uses its proprietary 4th layer. It’s going to be a true game changer. I don’t know about you guys. I’m excited about the future.

I can't imagine being such a small-minded loser obsessed with harassing members of this forum under what's probably now like ten different accounts. Give it up, man.

Remember back when he claimed he was a doctor? What doctor has the kind of time to be morbidly obsessed with the goings-on of an anonymous forum that doesn't affect his quality of life at all?

And let's suppose for the sake of argument that he actually is a doctor. The circumstances look even worse. A person with this paranoid, atavistic temperament shouldn't be seeing patients. This is the kind of person who stalks his patients because they left a bad review or because they said something in his office that he found disagreeable.

This kind of person, if he really is a doctor, should have his medical license revoked.

Fuck you too and what the hell is the phantom technique

Duke, my boi... I missed your non-objective remarks. I do enjoy them, by the way. Keep the cheapness coming.

Anyway, I won't give up on exposing mofos like you, and I will never stop pushing back against the industrial-asskissers complex. And for selfish reasons too, so no cheap mofo can say I'm claiming to be a hero. I need to get implanted, and I won't quietly stand there watching you give Leto blowjobs while companies continue to produce shit devices because of the shitshow you and the rest of the asskissers create.

Regarding the doctor thing... I feel like it's getting too personal with you. Why don't you drop it and challenge my claims, just like the good old days?

Okay, man, you got me! Damn it... I'm not a doctor. I'm a tall, C-suite, buttoned-up, useless snob.

Be well, cheap snob

I'm definitely a snob, but I'm not cheap! I'm not like you

Hey guys, I suggest adding trolls to your 'foe' list. It’s the best way to starve them of attention. Just go to their profile and click 'Add Foe'.

I actually felt Cololovin made some pretty good points. Why should anyone block this guy?

Thank you, man. Much appreciated. I know there are many lurkers out here who appreciate reasonable and actual “frank” talk and don’t get lured by the farts and fog created by sales reps like Letoman or intellectually disabled individuals, mostly boomers. I get many PMs appreciating my work, but unfortunately, they don’t dare to say it publicly because otherwise they would be hunted down and banned by the cult leader Letoman and the other sheep. I’ll keep sharing my views and exposing sales reps and the miserable durability of IPPs.

I think we’ve spoken in the past. Yeah, I agree with you on the durability thing, only, just based on observation (I don’t trust the compromised studies), I think the average lifespan is around 5-6 years, shorter for the Titan (like I said, just based on my observation). I do feel that some of your concerns are a bit overstated, like infection risk, which can be mitigated by 1) absence of diabetes, and 2) ketogenic diet (studies have shown that it significantly reduces risk of post-op infection, including sepsis—bacteria need glucose). Lastly, while I appreciate that you are a critical voice, I don’t really understand how you propose to improve the IPP by (sometimes) attacking people on a message board. Many of us already have implants, and in the event of failure have only two options: 1) smack around our limp dicks, or 2) get a new one so we can have sex again. We’re not in a position to boycott the manufacturers by not buying their products; so I really don’t know what you want from us. Care to elaborate? That said, I do feel that your concerns add a nice counterbalance to the extensive positivity, allowing people considering an IPP to perhaps look at the situation more objectively. I absolutely feel that you should be able to speak your mind.

Yeah, I am too. I just wish the implants of the future would get here already!

It's my observation as well as that of many others I've talked to (usually lurkers, so they won't get labeled by the cult), especially younger guys for obvious reasons. Most importantly, it's consistent with observations from MAUDE, which appear to confirm a similar range.

I do feel that some of your concerns are a bit overstated, like infection risk, which can be mitigated by 1) absence of diabetes, and 2) ketogenic diet (studies have shown that it significantly reduces risk of post-op infection, including sepsis—bacteria need glucose).

Refer to Kohler's study. I agree that the two factors you mentioned are somewhat modifiable factors. But again, there are also nonmodifiable factors that increase infection risk with each subsequent revision (as detailed in Kohler's study), and the only solution to that is adequate mechanical reliability.

Unfortunately, companies seem unwilling to pursue meaningful improvements in that area when, according to Coloplast, roughly 30% of surgeries are revisions, especially in light of the relentless asskissing coming from FT's death cult.

Lastly, while I appreciate that you are a critical voice, I don’t really understand how you propose to improve the IPP by (sometimes) attacking people on a message board.

Thanks again. But regarding the attitude, believe me, I tried to speak my mind in a "civilized" way, yet the death cult would instantly label me a troll or fearmonger. My attitude shifted when I started to realize that many of them seemed more interested in obscuring and shutting down negative feedback than engaging with it, whether they were sales reps or simply devoted cult members.
What pushed me over the edge was seeing people proactively promote narratives that I consider disastrous and toxic, such as claiming that revisions are a good thing because you get a bigger implant and an easier recovery (Perito's original), or insisting that most implants routinely survive 15 to 20+ years despite evidence that I believe points to a more complicated reality. In my view, those kinds of statements deserve scrutiny and pushback.

Regardless, forget the presence of Ty.

Prove me wrong: without the excessive asskissing by the cult, wouldn't we have ended up with something closer to Kaizen/Toyota-grade implants by now?

Many of us already have implants, and in the event of failure have only two options: 1) smack around our limp dicks, or 2) get a new one so we can have sex again. We’re not in a position to boycott the manufacturers by not buying their products; so I really don’t know what you want from us. Care to elaborate?

I never blamed anyone for getting an implant or a revision, and I never called for a boycott because it's simply not possible. I've always said that penile implants are the same as heart valves. If you need a heart valve, you can't tell your surgeon, "No, I don't want it," because otherwise life stops.

All I've asked for is putting an end to the obvious toxic positivity. No one has the right to label people with concerns, views, insights, or differing opinions as trolls.

Maybe then a class-action lawsuit might follow, or regulatory bodies might hear us and enforce higher standards on companies to make better products, or at least require them to run proper studies so that we have the dignity of signing a truly informed consent.

And if all of that fails, at least we stood up and delivered honest feedback instead of engaging in the same shameful, relentless asskissing.

That said, I do feel that your concerns add a nice counterbalance to the extensive positivity, allowing people considering an IPP to perhaps look at the situation more objectively. I absolutely feel that you should be able to speak your mind.

Thanks, man. I'll be around, and the mofos who went unchecked in the past won't be able to do that today because they know I'll strip away their fake-positive farting.

And let me tell you, many lurkers hate FT for this reason. People notice the insanity. Sales reps and positive farters are loud, I know, but people aren't stupid.

Hopefully, the narrative changes, and companies are held accountable instead of being allowed to trade with our dicks while optimizing quarterly profits. At the very least, I'd like to see more transparency, better data, and honest discussions about durability, revisions, and risks rather than endless cheerleading.
