RVF Legends & Lore

By the way, where have the colored crews of RVF gone?
Back then, there were black members like Atlanta Man, who was last seen during the early COVID-19 period in 2020, and Athlone McGinnis/Excelsior, who left the forum due to disagreements with its shift towards alt-right views. If I'm not mistaken, there were also black members like Fortis and Jariel.
There were also many Indians, such as Cobra, who joined CIK, Slim Shady, Rossi, who pretended to be Italian, and the IRTs. In RVF 2.0, there was Eusebius Erasmus, an Indian-Canadian.
An honorable mention goes to Rawmeo, who was exposed as Alexandre Cazes and met his end in Thailand.

I lurked on RVF a lot. Lots of guys seemed to bail after the changes to make it a Christian forum. For a brief time there was an offshoot Catholic forum someone started. I think Leonard was on there under a different name.
Those times were different and the members seemed younger. Eventually, the player lifestyle becomes unsustainable. So guys get married or just burn out completely. That sort of forum community has to be temporary because if the massive damage that sort of lifestyle does to your soul.

These are all good points but what happened was that the times also kept changing and women also continued to get worse with tech, such that game became also increasingly irrelevant. Do people still use online anywhere? I heard it's just all fatty 4s at this point. A particular type of passport bro is the only game left in town, to be honest.
Does anybody remember the whoremonger Greek kamaki in Rooshv 1.0. He even met Roosh in person. His posts were highly entertaining.
Also Subudai was an interesting character. His whole shtick was high end pick up. Meeting women while suited up in business settings where he had social proof etc.
Also sad that Scotian left. Hope he is doing well.
Simeon Strangelight was a prolific poster.
As for G Manifesto I am fairly sure that guy was a fraud. Highly entertaining poster though.
Suits was good and posted a lot of on the ground info on Asia especially China but he got in a disagreement with Roosh and got banned.
Tail Gunner was a pain in the ass. A real argumentative smart ass.
Moma was a top G and super funny. He had the persona of a real smooth talking suave black guy.

I haven’t been on an app in a long while. I tried it last year and went on a few dates with this supposed Catholic girl who ended up being a train wreck. Deleted it after that. I heard they have gotten significantly worse. You also tend to age out of the game so to speak.
To even make it fun or interesting I feel like you'd have to lie about age massively, if you are over 38 even. I think that's why online basically switched to sugaring, since they actually wouldn't believe you had money if not a little older at least. Proving many of the points on the forum ...
There's a thought experiment that suggests if you were a God who could have anything you wanted, you’d begin with unrestrained hedonism, much like the Greek and Roman gods were said to have done. But eventually, boredom would set in, and you’d choose to take on human form, living among us just to experience suffering and death.
I think about this a lot.
Corny reference, but Vanilla Sky has sort of a similar take at the end, accepting human life/love/loss over an artificial, endless version.
Oh yeah, once a guy is above 35 most women see you as a leftover guy even if they are terrible themselves. I heard on a podcast, I think it was Brett Weinstein that pseudo physicist, who claimed many women in his generation (50+) said they didn’t marry because they ‘couldn’t find their equal’ lol
As if guys care about her educational background.
Yes, this is bizarre if you look at anything historical before the 1960s USA or other "developed world" beyond that ...
I think I mentioned not too long ago that Grover Cleveland, the only nonconsecutive president before Trump part II, was actually the second bachelor president (James Buchanan never married), but he got married in the 2nd year of being president - to a woman who was 21. He was 49. They had 6 children.
Weinstein is about to turn 56. That means he was in his 20s and 30s in 90s into 2000s, which fits. I would say that kind of thing started well before him, even, but as he is "jewish" he probably also dealt with all manner of princesses and feminists, few of which were very appealing. Especially since women aren't very attracted just to intelligence.
One of the things that throws a wrench into marriage, family formation, fertility, etc. is that if you are in a multicultural country like in modernity, and people forget this, you make it much more likely for there to be MORE reasons not to be compatible with others. One thing that can offset that is if loss of religion comes up, theoretically more people could get married that wouldn't have before due to beliefs or tribal associations, but they are necessarily less strong of connections as a result, and ripe for what we've seen in modernity (divorce, more problems with offspring, etc).
By the way, what became of ilostabet? The Portuguese guy (or so he claimed) who was pretty insightful and was a good example of a believer with a right mindset, even in the old forum days.
There was a really good stock picker in the last few years of the Rooshvforum I believe his username was BB1 or something like that. He seemed to pick a lot of the great up and coming tech stocks and posted about them early on the forum and they went on to make hundreds of percent gains. He had a very high batting average. I think over 80% of his picks made a positive return. He was a very smart guy and humble too.
I still have to say the El Mechanico was among my top favorites. No online persona there, if anyone was ever in the Tampa area he would take you out and scare the life outta ya. I remember when him and another poster that I can't remember started trading war stories. Glorious.
The G manifesto thing was strange, as the guy had an uncanny knowledge about things that a fraud would overlook. He embellished, but so what, most of us do. But the real core of his posts were insane wisdom of a life lived.
A lot of us old crew still talk and meet in real life. It's the one thing that old RVF had that none of us have ever found elsewhere.
Hi Legends
Here is a small selection of members I recall.
Speaking of Fisto, my very first thread on RVF circa 2013 was not well received (about White Knights, but with somewhat of a controversial spin). Fisto made it very clear that I was wrong (as did many others within the thread and via DM’s). I learned some valuable lessons that day.
Card Guy - hated travelling (don’t know why that’s all I remember about him, haha).
Linux - Baller that loved purple suits. Latina lover (much like Scotian).
Anonymous Bosch - Highly intelligent, provided deep insights. Possible Aus bikie member/involved in underworld (my impression at least).
NASA Test Pilot - I can’t remember why he was banned, but he had a lot of fans. IIRC, post banning, a theory was put out there that he was a CIA plant.
Bald & Bankrupt (can’t remember what his RVF handle was) - IMHO, he was the best writer that RVF had. His stories about his exploits in Belarus and other ex soviet countries were proverbial page turners. No wonder his YouTube channel has millions of followers. Supposedly an ex British intelligence officer (that’s the rumour anyway).
So many others that were solid and unique contributors.

Cardguy was a guy who I thought was a good contributor but he ended up getting banned because he was posting during the game days of the forum and people who weren't into dating or at least self-improvement were viewed suspiciously. Funny thing is that he would have actually fit in pretty well with the forum around the Trump era and also in CiK. He tried to come back a few times under different names but would always get caught and banned.
AnonymousBosch was a big game guy and also super into psychology and I found a lot of his insights on not only women but just people in general to be pretty insightful. He first identified as an atheist that was raised Catholic but then later he was actually on the vanguard of promoting Christianity on the forums along with guys like Samseau and Scorpion at a time when the forum started to take more notice on religion but was still officially a game/travel/politics forum in nature and a few years before Roosh converted. That said he did show some signs of mental instability and would have these flareups every now and then which led to him getting temp banned initially before he got permabanned. If it wasn't for him having such a presence and for his good contributions I think he would gotten permabanned right away as opposed to having those warning bans prior.
Nasa Test Pilot was a guy known for plagiarizing content in order to farm likes and reputation points. We actually had a case here on this new forum that involved another poster that was also a poster on RVF who was caught plagiarizing as well.
I also recall we had a few Indian posters like Cobra (who pops up every now and then here) and kaotic which is funny considering the forum sentiment on Indians.
Cernovich also got his start on RVF posting under the name MikeCF. He was mostly a game/self improvement guy until Gamergate around which made him blow up.

People on the forum are smart enough to recognize the difference of generalization vs individuals. Most Indians are horrible and should stay in their own country.
There are a small percentage of Indians that are okay and I have a few Indian acquaintances that I get along with well.
