Well, all things must come to an end.
The forum has died.
I remember in the beginning when you could easily catch up on a whole day's worth of posts in ten minutes, when there was only a game and travel subforum. I was a 28 year old virgin with poor social skills and I was just devouring all the cool info on this forum, this forum and Bang were just so enlightening.
I had breakups and bad approaches and bad days but I knew I could come to this forum and someone on here would give me a comforting/inspiring message or send me a pm that would rev me back up. I also got a lot of help with business and career stuff, although not all of my plans panned out, the advice made my falls in life a heck of lot less painful.
Gradually I saw this forum turn more to political venting, and the volume of posts grew and grew until I found it impossible to keep up to date with every single thread; but though I didn't particularly like the occasional direction the forum was going, the beating heart of this forum, the game section, always seemed to pull the forum back from becoming a bunch of grumpy men shouting past each other.
Having married and dealing with a very active 1 year old, I simply haven't had the time to be as involved in this forum as I once was, which is a pity, because I love this place. Much of the success I have achieved at this stage of my life I can trace to advice I've taken or read on this forum.
Without an uncensored game/fornication section, this forum will basically die. Maybe it will rise up from the ashes and continue as a forum, but it will not be the same. It just won't have the prevailing headwind that kept the ship on a certain course, the course will change now.
So here's to Roosh, to the forum, and to all the guys that made this incredible place where a lame blue-pilled socially-awkward virgin came to discover how to get laid, get paid, and eventually somehow get married, on his own terms. Rest in Peace old Rooshvforum, may you continue to be as awesome in your new incarnation that Roosh wants to take you in, but if not, damn, thanks for the ride!
