Roosh just copied Mystery's protege Neil Strass. Strauss wrote The Game, and Roosh rebooted his Bang book under the title Game. Mostly, Roosh used viral hate-bait articles to attract traffic to his forum. But the most highly repped posters were all poseurs, like MiXX (who lived with his mother), accused rapist MikeCF, deadbeat dad Mark Minter, and plagiarists like The GManifesto and NASA Test Pilot. After the forum changes, many of the members stayed. It is just a bunch of forum addicts and losers.
Roissy wrote about the "sexual apocalypse". Women's incomes have increased, and women overtook men in college attendance in 1980. So, many men have lost ground, especially men without graduate degrees. In the 1950's, a mediocre white guy with a high school degree could get a secure job with a pension, marry an obedient wife, and achieve social standing. Nowadays, lifetime employment is over. A man risks becoming exploited, obese, and incel in a thankless cubicle job. Roosh and Roissy emerged alongside many other blogs to discuss lifestyle strategies in the new economic and sexual landscape.
Rollo "The Rational Male" Tomassi gave decent advice. He was originally motivated by his brother-in-law's suicide. But Rollo has drifted away from those issues, and has archived his best early articles.
So what is left? What did RVF produce of lasting value? The travel forum was distinctive. At least it attracted interesting men, instead of incels and PUA scammers. But is the travel info that special? Some men actually went abroad and found wives. If anyone thinks the forum is worth saving, then maybe they should make a post with links to the best content.
