Narcissism & Glory Hunting (Beckstead's Compulsions)

Beckstead's Watching You
Beckstead's Preying On You

Please Note: A narcissistic predator like Doug Beckstead will continue to embellish on reality, inorder to gain your praise and attention. He has no real friends as a result of many burnt bridges, instead he has to advertise and enlist the people that he use to know in junior high on sites like 'Facebook', 'Twitter' classmates.com and reunion.com. and many more.

He has also enlisted the odd "old friend" from his chatroom days gone-by. Most of whom he has never met and never has the intention of meeting. Those he wishes to impress and hang onto, to serve his status needs or maybe he just has not gotten around to playing you yet. If he has not met with you, he will plan to, beware it is another lie, all part of his false facade. If you don't agree to his game then you too will become just another person he slanders to others when he is on a sympathy hunt. He has names and made up conditions for us all, all courtesy of wannabe specialist Beckstead *L*.

Be warned it is only a matter of time before you too become another target. All of his previous victims gave him his marching orders, they did not wish to "remain" his "friend" or anything else that he had planned for the future. He is using you to shore up his belief system, nothing more. It is nothing but a twisted game to Beckstead. You are just names and faces on a page to him, nothing more but a number to try and prove (and impress) he has friends. You are just a casual contact when he is bored and when noone else has the time of day for his BS he will take his pick. He will tell you that "you are so special" to him, you are not, you are just one of many. You are just another care package and another person he can scam and use. Another person he can put down once you have served your purpose to this predator.

You are not aware of his double life, now at the age of 50 plus, his life as an online predator. He has been at it for a very long time. He carefully singles out those that most interest him and those that can serve specific needs in his life. The whole idea is you must serve a need or become disposable.

Beckstead is trapped in a world of fantasy, one he openly mascarades in as his reality. Doug lives in a world of false reality, one of virtual imagery created by his own lies on the computer screen. He has a sense of grandious behavior second to none. In other words it is all BS. People with "real friends" don't have to search back to junior high or high school and advertise for them on a social networking site to prove themselves.

Remember this was all done just prior to Christmas 2008, well after his exposure. It is yet another feeble attempt of his to try and cover up his misconduct, at trying to project the right image by using others. It is yet another compulsion on his behalf, one which normal, rational people don't feel the need to do.

If you Beckstead had nothing to hide why bother to go to such extremes?

Take heed

The Team @ Predator Alert


(A) Narcissistic Personality Disorder: By: KSCheah :

The serial bully displays behaviour congruent with many of the diagnostic criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Characterised by a pervasive pattern of grandiosity and self-importance, need for admiration, and lack of empathy, people with narcissistic personality disorder overestimate their abilities and inflate their accomplishments, often appearing boastful and pretentious, whilst correspondingly underestimating and devaluing the achievements and accomplishments of others.

Often the narcissist will fraudulently claim to have qualifications or experience or affiliations or associations which they don't have or aren't entitled to. Belief in superiority, inflating their self-esteem to match that of senior or important people with whom they associate or identify, insisting on having the "top" professionals or being affiliated with the "best" institutions, but criticising the same people who disappoint them are also common features of narcissistic personality disorder.

Narcissists react angrily to criticism and when rejected, the narcissist will often denounce the profession which has rejected them (usually for lack of competence or misdeed) but simultaneously and paradoxically represent themselves as belonging to the profession they are vilifying.

Fragile self-esteem, a need for constant attention and admiration, fishing for compliments (often with great charm), an expectation of superior entitlement, expecting others to defer to them, and a lack of sensitivity especially when others do not react in the expected manner, are also hallmarks of the disorder. Greed, expecting to receive before and above the needs of others, overworking those around them, and forming romantic (sic) or sexual relationships for the purpose of advancing their purpose or career, abusing special privileges and squandering extra resources also feature.

People with narcissistic personality disorder also have difficulty recognizing the needs and feelings of others, and are dismissive, contemptuous and impatient when others share or discuss their concerns or problems. They are also oblivious to the hurtfulness of their behavior or remarks, show an emotional coldness and a lack of reciprocal interest, exhibit envy (especially when others are accorded recognition), have an arrogant, disdainful and patronizing attitude, and are quick to blame and criticize others when their needs and expectations are not met.

The DSM-IV Diagnostic Criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder are:
A pervasive pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration, lack of empathy, as indicated by at least five of:
1. a grandiose sense of self-importance
2. is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
3. believes that he or she is "special" and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)
4. requires excessive admiration
5. has a sense of entitlement, i.e. unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations
6. is interpersonally exploitative, ie takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
7. lacks empathy and is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others
8. is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her
9. shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes

(B) Attention-seeking personality disorders, victim syndrome, insecurity and centre of attention behavior
Drama queens, saviors, rescuers, feigners and attention-seekers

The need for attention

Human beings are social creatures and need social interaction, feedback, and validation of their worth. The emotionally mature person doesn't need to go hunting for these; they gain it naturally from their daily life, especially from their work and from stable relationships. Daniel Goleman calls emotional maturity emotional intelligence, or EQ; he believes, and I agree, that EQ is a much better indicator of a person's character and value than intelligence quotient, or IQ.

The emotionally immature person, however, has low levels of self-esteem and self-confidence and consequently feels insecure; to counter these feelings of insecurity they will spend a large proportion of their lives creating situations in which they become the centre of attention. It may be that the need for attention is inversely proportional to emotional maturity, therefore anyone indulging in attention-seeking behaviors is telling you how emotionally immature they are.

Attention-seeking behavior is surprisingly common. Being the centre of attention alleviates feelings of insecurity and inadequacy but the relief is temporary as the underlying problem remains unaddressed: low self-confidence and low self-esteem, and consequent low levels of self-worth and self-love.

Insecure and emotionally immature people often exhibit bullying behaviors, especially manipulation and deception. These are necessary in order to obtain attention which would not otherwise be forthcoming. Bullies and harassers have the emotional age of a young child and will exhibit temper tantrums, deceit, lying and manipulation to avoid exposure of their true nature and to evade accountability and sanction. This page lists some of the most common tactics bullies and manipulators employ to gain attention for themselves. An attention-seeker may exhibit several of the methods listed below.

Read the full article below, with thanks to: http://nocturnal-mind.blogspot.com/2007/06/narcissism-attention-seeking_05.html

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A recent & classic example of this Glory-Hunting type of behavior from Doug Beckstead aka 'Dog_Driver' can be viewed below in response to another member @ www.armyairforces.com/.

All attention seeking posts written by Beckstead can be found under Dog_Driver. Of which there are plenty, he adds them on a regular basis to try and cover up the truth. All posts below were spotted recently with the help of our supporters and members (some former victims of Beckstead's) who recently observed Beckstead's "cyber footprints" trawling all over their sites, checking to see if the coast was clear after his long silence. He thinks he can go back to his game playing, predatory ways and all would be forgotten.

However he would be very WRONG. His lack of conscience may have forgotten, but we - his victims - have not. Beckstead can call us "obsessed stalkers" all he likes, but the truth is we are holding him to account. The stalker is HIM, ego-surfing the web chronically and having no remorse or empathy for what he's done to other human beings; like all sociopathic types they figure if its online it's not 'real.'

WRONG again

This is textbook compulsive, narcissistic behavior of a predator, who uses these types of repetetive aren't-I-a-wonderful-interesting-guy story lines as a lure to reel in his next victim(s) of choice. Because as a narcissistic predator, he has no inner "self", Beckstead most probably sniffs around other people's stories and the co-opts them to use with outsiders as HIS OWN. This sort of personal history stealing and absorbing is common & frequent among sociopaths -- in order to build up their images to potential targets.

Beware, because as soon as you are hooked by his "good guy" image then comes the sympathy lure: the forlorned, sob stories - the somebody done somebody wrong song. Only it is projection and lies - all of it. Beckstead has turned his victim's suffering and pain; pain HE inflicted on them -- into his own ('darn I got caught!') to con YOU.

As you can see by this first post below, intellect is not Doug's aka Dog_Drivers forte`.

Well written response, 'Yunch'. We could not have said it better ourselves.

Re:Top Turret / Flight Engineer training - Friday, August 22, 2008 11:33 AM
There is a great training film/documentary out there about the training for top turret gunners. Burgess Merideth (aka "The Penguin" from the Batman TV series and "Mickey" from Rocky I-IV) is the gunner they follow. It is very interesting. I'll have to check my DVDs for the exact title. I think I bought it through Zeno's website or I got in in a collection of WWII DVDs from Costco.

Norden Bomb Sight Service and Repair - Wednesday, August 20, 2008 10:17 AM
Looking for Bomb Sight Repairmen. I am finding in my research of the B-29 Training Airbases in Kansas some interesting info on the maintenance of the Bombsights. Recently a local Jeweler's shop was sold and in the Jewelers shop, many Norden Bombsight items and paperwork were found. Folk that new him stated he was a civilian bombsight repairman for the local B-29 airbase. This is the second situation I have come across where Civilians worked on these bombsights in this area. I am wondering if the relationship between a jeweler who worked on precision watches in those days would have been an asset to the Army Airforces repair of the sights. Maybe someone out there can add to the maintenance history of these Bombsights. Phillip

I am sure that just like today, there is a huge civilian component to the military. Some of us even deploy alongside the active duty folks. I spent the first four and a half months this year in Iraq.I am curious, what became of all the Norden related materials in the jewelry shop when it was sold? I sure hope you, or someone else with an interest, got it.

Warning this is a lure, a facade he uses posts like this one, both above and below to con and prey on your trust and possibly get you to admire his knowledge & achievements. (which even member 'Yunch' knows is all B.S.)

It is his pride before your fall. DO NOT believe any of his BS.

We ALL know because after we spoke to each other we realized he pulled the same EXACT tactics on us. As you can clearly witness, his grandiose, self-important rhetoric speaks volumes. This is only the tip of the iceburg.

He has an agenda as do all of our exposed predators, and it all ends up with free cybersex or casual sex as being the main motive, with an added touch of Beckstead reliving his teenage years behind a computer screen, and much more.

Re:Witchcraft's Pilot at MAPS Air Museum
Thursday, August 21, 2008 2:28 PM

Last September I had the pleasure of taking a flight on Witchcraft while it was in New Bedford, Massachusetts. He flew 53 missions over there. Also on board was a man who served as a top turret gunner in the Solomans during the war. The rest of us had to strap in back but the chief took him up to the radio operators seat for takeoff and landing. I had a chance to talk with him during the flight. I'll never forget the grin on his face while we were flying. I could tell he was in a different time and a different place. He had his original log book with him. The pilot borrowed it and filled in, and signed, for his 54th mission that day. That was something to experience, and to share, with a man of his stature.

The REAL Doug Beckstead: Con Man, Liar, Sociopath

Doug\'s Favorite Flower - The Wild Alaskan Forget-Me-Nots

Becksteads favorite flower - the Forget-Me-Not ... how apt.

http://cyberpathlinks.blogspot.com/2007/04/douglas-doug-beckstead.html

Above link made available with thanks as always to the amazing team @ :EOPC

The emails below were sent here a while ago along with a few others from one of Beckstead's numerous online targets. Notice the date and take a careful look at his words; ring any bells for other victims?

Beckstead pledges HIS love (which as a MARRIED man he has no right to do), HIS "true love" (and he makes it VERY CLEAR he does NOT mean as just 'friends') - as nonchalantly as the rest of us drink our daily water.

Beckstead whale

Try as you might Beckstead you will NEVER be a true "American hero", no matter how much you try and con anyone who will listen into believing your pathetic lies . You are not now, nor will you EVER be a real soldier, air man or an Officer of the Air Force. You are a nobody, you are a PREDATOR, scum of this earth. NOTHING you claim to do is for the greater good. You will spend the rest of your life riding on the coat-tails of others success. NOTHING that you do will change what is on these pages. Questions have been asked and answers are being given. People are listening, your lies are starting to unravel the truth behind your deceptive ways.

Doug Beckstead is a con-man and a pathological liar. HE LED some of his victims on for a number of years, into believing there was hope and a future with him. HE managed to juggle MORE than one woman whilst making them ALL the same false promises. HIS WORDS, HIS LIES, NOT his VICTIMS. All lies, because to Beckstead - all these victims were just OBJECTS for his "fun". When HE wanted or felt like it. Normal, vulnerable women with children were just so much more fun & less expense for a predator like Beckstead than porn or women he'd have to pay for. He admitted to some of his victims after they outed him, that he "found great amusement in the games he had played against them". Note the farther away they lived from him - the easier it was to play them and tell everyone around him, once questioned, that his victims were just some "scorned, sad and lonely people" who "wanted him to love them". Of course he claims his "love" was in friendship only, to cover his tracks. He goes on to tell his current target/person who he is trying to impress with his lies, that the victim "was in love with him" when sometime later it becomes blatently obvious he has played the same games on you that he has in the past against others.

The stories are all too familiar and all end with a similar theme, everyone "is in love" and or is "after" Beckstead -- in more ways than one it all becomes a sick and cruel joke played out by Beckstead at his victims expense. The one claiming to "be inlove" is Beckstead, quietly on the side to his next target of choice. Sweet-talking his way into your life and or good books with more baloney. He is a seasoned game player from way back. Do not let you or your family become his next means to an end.

HI,

I am not sure if I plan on writing him or not. I have thought about it, just to say shame on you for hurting so many people. I probably wont for the reason that I am married now and my husband knows nothing of this. Doug Beckstead is a part of my past, a very small part, and I would rather leave it where is it..the past. I want you to know that if I had ever known that you were a part of his life, I would never have talked with him like I did. (Paula earlier admitted to engaging in regular phone sex and cyber sex with Beckstead) I am a very naive and trustful person, even of those on the internet and believed him to be what he claimed he was. (he is VERY convincing - a skilled liar) Unfortunately I have learned that there are many people who are not as they claim to be, and the internet provides a safety net to hide behind. He obviously used this many times. (YES you are right on the money with that comment) I take a small bit of responsibility for my part when Doug and I were talking. I wanted to believe what he was saying (she was love bombed by Beckstead with repeated tales of fantasy and romance), and I knew that there was a huge risk in trusting someone who I had no real access to. But, lessons have been learned from such experiences. My marriage turned out to be a good thing and I think that is a rarity in the world of online dating.

I am glad that you are getting on with your life. Be strong for yourself and your children. Everyday will be better than the one before. If you want to tell him that I know that is up to you. I can handle him no problem. I wish that we would have talked 3 years ago and maybe this all would have had a different outcome. (these victims were to find out they were not the only ones on Beckstead's bragging sled-ride to hell, there were many more to come).

Have a wonderful day. *S*

Paula

To: *****@*****.com

HI,

I don't mind answering any questions that you might have. First off...I didn't have a relationship with Doug in 2004. It was in 2003. We started talking somewhere around July/August I believe and it only lasted until about October. So maybe 2 and half, 3 months tops. I had 3 children with my exhusband. Not sure if 3 counts as a "whole bunch" *L* NO, I never received any kind of packages from him. I sent him an Arizona's Wildcats ballcap for his birthday and he sent me a stuffed moose with a knit sweater that too said Alaska (he sent the same moose and/or bear toys to all of his victims, with different stories attached). He also sent me a small one to give to my newborn neice. He said he won the stuffed animals at the local fair (sure he did, he liked to hang out where the children were). He did mention that the moose for me was so I could have something to sleep with so I wouldnt be all alone. Like I said..he went to be with his daughter becasue he said she had cancer of some kind. I can;t remember now. while he was away we didnt really communicate too much and it gave me time to think. Prior to his leaving he had made a comment to me that he felt we "had something special going on"(he spun the same lines to ALL his girls). I liked hearing that, but also I knew that a real relationship would never work between us. I knew that he would never leave Alaska (why would he - he can get everything on offer from you for free) and I would never leave Arizona. so I figured I would end things and back away from him before I was too vested in it and wound (sp?) end up being hurt. (Paula earlier mentioned that Beckstead became angry and distant with her because she decided to "back away". Like all of his victims she grew wise to his playing and malingering ways) He sent me the book after I was married.(trying to reel you back in - he always does this - another Beckstead brag -fest) We had emailed each other and still talked as friends only at this point. We werent in contact for quite a long time. I initiated the last email with him..the one where he replied that he was going to the desert. (Beckstead's way of gaining your sympathy and attention, yet again - so typical) I had received one of those forwards emails that had to do with the people who were special at some time in your life. (Poor victim had a glimmer of hope he may not be as bad as she first thought, alas she was wrong) It made me think of him, cuz I thought he was someone I valued as a friend. After I sent it to him, he replied, just asking how things were and how I was doing. I replied back to him and asked him how his life was going and if he had ever divorced his wife (of course he had not - and he never intended to, it was all a lie to con you so he could play his sick & twisted games with you)..I have never heard from him again. *L*

I thought about emailing him, but never have. I figured bygones were bygones.

I hope you too had a great Mothers Day. Mine was like any other typical day..LOL.

Take care and feel free to write me anytime you want.

*hugs*

Paula

Beckstead PHOTOSHOPPED himself thinner just a few months ago! LOL

The TRUTH is Beckstead became bored and of course was BUSTED by his former targets. Please also note that the love bombing was ALL Beckstead, he told lies and manipulated the entire situation to suit his own needs at the time. One only has to read the emails he has sent to his targets to see that. He made his chosen targets feel empathy and sympathy for him, he said that his family (once their existence became known) were quote - "unsupportive, unloving and money grubbing individuals who no longer cared for him" .. unquote. He claimed he was also "going to be getting a divorce from his wife". Once he sets his eyes on fresh prey he quickly makes up the excuses and turns things around into projection and blameshifting onto YOU, his now former victim. We ALL know because he fed us the same insipid sob stories.

The email below is just one of many in Beckstead's shameful penmanship (and verbal seduction, coersion and manipulation) to purposely con those who trusted and believed in him.

(NOTE: we have VERIFIED that this is a real email. Not a faked or falsified email. Eminenting from MR. BECKSTEAD's unique IP address)

Good evenin' my fine sexy friend and lover!

Okay, let's look at this straight on. Don't worry if you can't contact me for a while. I'll still be here waiting. I'm not going anywhere and I sure as hell am not "looking" for something or someone different, you are all I ever want. So, I'll just be in a holding pattern waiting until things get worked out on the _________ end of things. Although I will really miss not getting my daily "______ fix."

Damn I wish I was there so I could be with you and the kids!!! I'm sorry that I won't be able to send an e-card to ------ for her birthday. But, please give her a hug and tell her that I am thinking about her on her birthday. You've got some really wonderful kids! Now, please don't worry about me. I'll be waiting in the background. I'm not going anywhere (well, other than Anchorage for Christmas). I'll be waiting and watching.

And the most important thing is to remember that I love you guys. Okay? I love you -- and if I could I would really like to give you a soft kiss and a big hug and tell you that everything was going to be okay. Someday soon I hope to be able to do just that.

love, hugs and kisses in special places!

Doug

Now read the below. But before you do - take a GOOD HARD LOOK at the lyrics for "Unchained Melody" which Beckstead calls his & this target's "song." Wonder if he told his poor wife that this was "their song" too??

Ohh I Just Burned You Like The Toast

This is not a JUST FRIENDS relationship and there is NO MISTAKING what BECKSTEAD himself intends & implies. A ROMANTIC & SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP/LIASON!

These emails were not ALTERED in any way!! It has been verified as coming from Mr. BECKSTEAD's computer (he has a few IPs, like his work/ home/ South Carolina IPs (re-routed) and we know all of them). This is Beckstead's cold hearted INFIDELITY.

I've got a few of those "romantic, chick flicks" that I really enjoy. In fact, today I bought a copy of "Somewhere in Time" with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour. I found it for a really good price and I scarfed it up in a flash. The other one I want to get it "The American President" with Michael Douglas and Annette Benning.

I think it's probably the rear one since I've already replaced the damn thing three times in the past 12 years. I just put a new one in last winter when I did the clutch job on it.

Pathological Liar

Beckstead Embellishes On Reality To Keep The Glory-Hunting, Gravy-Train Running!

Sociopath's NEVER learn a lesson, they sit quietly and bide their time until they are ready to strike again - and strike again they ALL do.
Look closely at both of these recent posts - read his words carefully.
Douglas Beckstead is a true chameleon who embellishes on any truth for a cause - his own cause.
Below he puts his own spin of words on his true occupation - a wannabe war hero - Beckstead has NEVER served in the military. He IS a civilian employed by the Air Force nothing more, although most certainly he is a lot less in character. Make no mistake, Beckstead is being watched closely, so he thinks the "look at me, I'm a good and decent guy" routine will manage to con more into his way of thinking. Beware - it is all a grandiose act for his own over blown ego. Don't be the next to fall for his misinterpretations of the truth and his twisted games.

Beckstead Comments:

"Really there's no difference (between military and civilians here). We're eating together, working together and living together. We're all in it together," Mr. Beckstead said. "I really try to break down that barrier of I'm a civilian and you're enlisted." I like the fact we're wearing the same uniform. I just try to blend in as much as I can. We're all in the same fight together and we all have the same goal."

Fantastic !!!

I ordered the CD while sitting over here in Iraq, believe it or not, I am actually at Mortaritaville (which is not Baghdad but Balad Air Base). I have listened to the CD so many times that I am afraid I have already worn the plastic coating off it. Or maybe its this damn Iraqi dust. Either way, the songs are great and as others have said, they really sum up what it's all about being here. I hope they don't mind, but I used the song "We Hate Terrorists" as the background music for a slide show I did about the work we do on the helipad transporting wounded patients from the helos to the ER. It really summed up our feelings as we've dealt with men, women and even children (America, Iraqi and other nationalities) who have been blown up, shot, and in just plain bad situations. Thanks guys, I really enjoy the CD and have been pushing it on others recommending that they buy it too!

Awesome music.

Be honest now Dougie Beckstead, you are not a soldier serving over there. Spare a thought or three for the vulnerable women and children you have sexually preyed on while you listen to those soothing sounds? How many copies of that have you forwarded onto your next targets eh?
Google his name for further information.

BEWARE of this guy!
