I'm probably considered part of the third gen, but I seriously disagree with Style being the father of the 2nd gen. I don't think Mystery gets enough credit for what he has done. Seriously. Most of today's major players learned either directly or indirectly from Mystery. Even Style, Tyler Durden, and David D. So, he was a bigger influence right after Ross Jeffries than any other one person. Sure, Neil brought a lot of attention to the game with his book, but even at that time, Mystery was the man to be. It's only been lately that Style has come out with his own school and his own stuff. Now, we have Mystery doing his own thing and Style doing his own thing along with the other gurus doing their own thing. So now, I don't think there's one "father", but many.
Of course there are many Fathers, and maybe we can go on: who did what and when. It will be great to have a time line of who came first and all that but I don't see a big point. The purpose of this post is not to say who went first and who is the father of what generation, etc... The intention of this post is to make people realize that even tho we are from different Generations we can be together in a forum and learn from each other.
I also wanted to make a sort of advice on what might come next and a quick story on the changes this community had. We all know Mystery was the Father of Style, but in my opinion Style is the father of the Generation because he gave the tools (The Game) for normal guys to join and find the community.
I don't want to argue who is the best and who is the father, maybe we all have different thoughts about it.
I found more important that we can Help each other and we can be together as a quality community in this time of changes.
Success, XF.
