Hey guys,
Apologies for the potential dumb question but I'm a new member here and I can't find Roosh's actual material? Does anyone have a link?
I was from the Neil Strauss era, started on his forum and then migrated over to RSD. Then eventually around 2010 stopped needing PUA. Just recently ive discovered Roosh and he had an era from 2011 onwards.
Bonus: does anyone have access to the RSD forums?
Thanks.

I have come upon this site through search engines.
Any opinions?

Is it valuable information, or lunatics ranting?

Arriving wednesday and staying a while if anyone is around.

The first step to meeting a girl on Tinder is the opener (known as a chat-up line). Ironically, this is the part that guys typically struggle with the most. This article will break down the greatest conversation starters that you can start using immediately to get girls to respond.

In addition, we will be analyzing what makes a good chat-up line in general, so you can come up with your own

What makes a good chat-up line on dating apps?

1) Relevance – the line you use has to be relevant to the girl. For example, if she has several photos with glasses, a good chat-up line might be “I like your sexy nerd glasses“. However, if she doesn’t have glasses, this obviously would make no sense

2) Uniqueness – you don’t need to have the most original line on the planet, but at the same time, it can’t be something that she has heard a million times. For instance, let’s say in her bio she says, “just moved here, looking for a guy to show me around.” Every guy is messaging her, “Hey, I can show you around,” so don’t do that. Pro Tip: When crafting your own line, generally avoid referencing her bio (every guy is doing that); instead, focus on her photos (a lot fewer guys do that). I know this by going through multiple girls’ Tinder profiles

3) Simplicity – You do NOT want to be that guy who writes paragraphs in the opener. Instead, keep your line to a sentence. Two sentences at most

What mistakes should you avoid in your opener?

1) Don’t be lazy – Every expert warns against “Hey” — it’s lazy, dull, and what your competition sends. This article from GQ explains in detail why hey is a bad opener.

2) Don’t be try-hard – This is the opposite extreme and is actually worse than being lazy. As mentioned previously, don’t send her an essay and don’t try to impress her. It’s like this: a little effort is good, but too much is not.

3) Don’t be creepy – You don’t want to be the guy that comes off totally uncalibrated. But at the same time, don’t be afraid to take some social risks and be edgy. What that line is will depend on your profile and hers.For example, if you have a sexual bio and a shirtless photo (like I do), then you can say something like “Your dad is absolutely gonna hate me”. However, if you come off as a nice guy, it’s probably not gonna work.

7 good chat up lines you can copy & paste

1.“So, I guess we’re dating now?” — Roleplay‑friendly and shows you have a sense of humor

2. “Your dad would absolutely hate me.” — Builds massive curiosity, but don’t use if you come off as a “nice-guy”

3. “Hey < her name>, you know what’s interesting about your pictures?” — Very high response rate, requires a good follow-up

4. “I’m the one—you can delete this app now ” – Relatively original and easy conversation starter

5. “My 3rd‑grade crush was named (girl’s name). I used to pull her hair and steal her crayons.” – funny and also allows you to sexualize easily afterwards

6. “Hey wanna steal my comfiest hoodie?” – Cute and fun. Makes it very easy for the girl to respond, ensuring a high reply rate

7) “Hey trouble” – Short & sweet, but does the trick by prompting the girl to respond to why she is or is not “trouble”

What’s the scoop on Belarus (Minsk), Ukraine or Russia in 2025?

Is Ukraine still too dangerous? 

How’s Minsk for pickup or even finding a young ‘trad’ slavic wife as a White Westerner and escaping the increasingly dark & swarthy West? I guess Russia is off the table now with WW3 imminently starting.

Well... it's time to GTFO of The West again, and go work remote abroad on my shit. 

I have zero safety net this time and need costs as low as possible (it's all so tiresome...)

Just scanning Air BnB, the cheapest so far for rents are Pattaya and Hanoi. 

I've visted both - Hanoi was very interesting in their winter time, cold as fuck but very atmospheric - I'd be willing to give it a go longer term. When I was in HCMC in 2017 or so, I remember I managed to get a business visa somehow, and was able to stay a year. Or maybe.. I got a tourist visa then EXTENDED it into a business visa once I was there, I def did something like that.

Anyone know if this shit is still possible? It's the constant moving on tourist visas that has always been the biggest ball-ache, and it costs too. 

As for Pattaya - shithole from memory, the walking street was fucking disgusting, Thailand at its worst, I can only imagine how much worse it's gotten in these last few years. It was full of Russians last time, Thai people would speak to me in Russian, it was very odd. 

I could probably get used to it - rent a scooter, live cheap on Thai food at local places. But again, the Thai visa thing is a mega PITA. 

I also just saw a video saying now they don't let farang have bank accounts! And even those who had them (like me) are having them forced closed ffs)



Another option could be Paraguay but a boring place by all accounts.

Really I'd like to go back to the Caucaus region or the stans for the summer, like Kazakhstan, but these places are over the top price-wise, I don't know how they justify it.

Anyway - any ideas fellow kids?

1. WingAI
One of the most disappointing Rizz assistants I have ever tested. In addition to the noticeable lag, the app gets confused most of the time and gives suggestions that are designed for a whole different situation

Pros

- Gives a 50% off discount when you install

Cons

- Doesn’t understand context and gets confused most of the time
- allows only 5 free usages a day
- Gives largely nonsensical responses

2. The Rizz App
The app that popularized the term “AI Rizz,” The rizz app has a good interface and is capable of coming up with good one-liners here and there. The problem is that it is poor at understanding context and often gives suggestions that make no sense

Pros:
- Allows you to get started for free
- Smooth interface

Cons:
- Has a hard time paying attention to context and can give tone deaf responses
- Plagued by political correctness
- Responses known to be cheesy and/or corny

3. PlugAI
The second most popular rizz assistant on the market. Overall, responses are solid. Definitely none of the corniness of the Rizz app. However, sometimes it seems like the AI isn’t completely grasping the context, or the responses are just off.

Pros:
- No cheesiness, corninenss, or political correctness
- Provides decent responses
- Has ability to generate pickup lines (openers).

Cons:
- Doesn’t grasp the context of the convo sometimes
- Need to subscribe to a trial before trying
- Doesn’t allow giving instructions to the AI

4. Fire Texts (by zh creations)
**Mandatory disclaimer: I was involved in building this app, but I truly believe this is the best AI rizz assistant currently out there (and so do thousands of our users)

Pros:
- Highly effective responses that will get you more dates
- Designed by a real dating coach with a decade worth of experience (rather than a nerd in a cubicle)
- Capable of being very funny
- No political correctness, just ruthless efficiency
- Allows you to communicate directly with the AI about what you want in a response
- Allows a free trial

Cons:
- Isn't able to directly generate openers (feature coming very soon)

In this post, I’m going to reveal the results of a Tinder experiment I did to find out what are truly the best cities in the U.S for meeting girls and getting laid. In addition, I will dispel a few common misconceptions about this topic. The answers might be very different from what you expect

When most people think of the best cities for meeting women, their mind jumps to Las Vegas, LA, Miami, etc. You know the flashy touristy cities where people go to party. (we will refer to these as “1st Tier Cities”)

However, they couldn’t be more wrong. It is actually the 2nd tier cities, like Pittsburgh or Cincinnati that are the easiest to get laid in. The cities that people don’t normally think “I need to go there”.

Why are 2nd tier cities better for meeting girls?

I think there are two big reasons. The first has to do with competition. Ask yourself: where are highly successful guys more likely to move to? Miami or Cincinnati? The answer is obvious, successful guys are much more likely to move to a 1st tier city. Leaving 2nd tier cities with a low ratio of successful men

You may wonder, well doesn’t the same effect apply to women. But the answer is, not as much. Women are less likely to leave their friends and family in the city they grew up in compared to men.

This means that when you’re in a place like Miami you’re competing with successful guys from all across the country for the same girls. On the other hand, in Cincinnati you’re competing primarily against locals who are also on average not nearly as successful. This results in more matches, more dates, and less flakes.

The second reason has more to do with entertainment options. In a place like Miami there’s a million things to do. When you match with a hot girl and invite her to get a drink with you, you’re competing against the other guy who invited her on a boat, or the third guy who has backstage tickets to see Skrillex.

However, in Cincinnati when you invite a hot girl on a date, her other option is most likely just watching Netflix with her girlfriends. Thus, it is much easier to get her out (for more info on how to text her to get laid, see this guide)

What is the evidence?

A while back, I decided to test my theory by trying tinder in a bunch of cities across the country. Six cities were picked. The 1st tier ones were: NYC, Miami, and Los Angeles. The 2nd tier ones were: Albuquerque, Denver, and Pittburg

In terms of matches, there was no major difference between both groups. For 1st tier cities I averaged about 45 likes per day. For 2nd tier cities it was around 65. It’s something, but it’s not a lot.

However, when we tried setting up dates with the girls we matched with, massive differences began to emerge. In Miami I set up one date out of the 45 likes. In LA, it was the same. And in NYC it was two dates. Now granted this was with minimal effort and if i put more energy into it, we could have had a few more dates.

That being said, with the same amount of effort, I set up 6 dates in Denver (out of the around 65 likes), 8 In Pittsburgh, and 10 In Albuquerque. That right there is a massive difference.

Been around the space since 2017


Time to give back some value, this is what I think about the main guys


1. Income Sharks

Very good, smart, one of the best in the space. 

Draws charts, doesn't fiddle them, shows you when he buys and sells. Strong success rate

Strong on BTC/ETH, small shitcoins and also stonks


2. TraderSZ

Absolute insider trading shill. This guy peaked in the Bear Market of 2021, really lost his form and got exposed

Do not rate. Shady

One thing he is good at is drawing Quarterly & Monthly levels - you should do this too


3. Trader XO

His mate. Much better analyst, makes decent calls. Loves the macro

Has proven he can trade both ways, maps out his moves before they happen

Would always listen to his ideas on larger caps - though one massive L he took was when he tried to buy the bottom of SOL in 2022/23 and got front-ran


4. DonAlt

OG - doesn't post much but generally pretty good when he does.

Usually sticks to BTC/ETH

Most often has a bear bias. If he is bullish def worth paying attention to him


5. AltStreetBet


TheEWGuy. Big mouth, can't trade. Had some success on some memes last year but on a massive dry spell

He is actually a great counter-trade

Misses moves left, right and centre. Gets sidelined and then flips at the worst moment. I get nervous if he agrees with me


6. Capo

Perma-bear - memeable character


7. Wizz (Crypto Wizard)

Loves to hold coins forever. Honestly did really well on FET

However, not a trader at all

Follow him and you might get wrecked


8. CryptoChase

One of the real ones, maps out trades in advance - usually scales in at logical levels

Trades stonks and crypto

Gets sidelined by Saylor frontrunning his bids sometimes - but happens to me too


9. RektProofCapital

Very good for his deviation 3 tap analysis. Highly rate him as a trader. Proven.


10. ColdBloodedShiller (CBS)

Truly Cold Blooded. Successful, uses AO and RSI very well and basically only that. 

Guilty of making people flip bull very late and getting them punished but usually he's on point

If he is one of the first to flip bullish then you should listen to him

Good at trading stonks, pokemon cards, crypto and loves anything tradeable. 

Key thought leader on The Haven


11. NebraskaGooner

Rate him highly, knows what he is doing.

Proven


12. CryptoTony

Absolute hack

Has never made a losing trade in his own mind

Do not even bother laughing at him


13. Gainzy

Meme lord. Absolute baller in his peak. Used to buy giant Iron Man statues and spend money on insane shit.

Single handedly made ETH bottom in 2025


14. Michael Saylor

Worst entries ever but somehow doesn't matter

Until maybe one day when it does

BTC King - some people nervous about how much supply he has cornered through MSTR

Also owns a big stash himself from lower levels


15. Mayne

Useless, likes to chat a lot. Has a big neck


16. Scott Melker Wolf of Wall Street

Hack, more a podcast guy than a trader

Got involved early so he made it anyway


17. XForceGlobal 

EW big mouth baller from South Korea. Terrible trader

Draws one million scenarios and is apparently always right


18. Alex Becker

Got luck last bull run with gaming

Has maybe more followers than anyone I've ever seen on CT (1.2M)

This guy would havea got you completely rekt if you only followed him since 2022 onwards


19. CrediBULL Crypto

Missed BTC run from 50s to 100K completely

Called the memepocalyse esp on WIF

Looked completely out of it before somehow all his key utility picks CRV / XRP blew up 

Hard for me to call this guy - he is a mixed bag for sure of big success and big fuck ups


20. Cred

Similarly named. Educator, not really a trader


21. Bluntz

Aussie that giga longed WIF early on. Ran hot on copy-trading, probably got everyone burnt

Long only mentality that is good when it works but disaster when things change


Conclusion

Learn how to trade yourself but if want to test your ideas vs the best - pay attention to these guys in particular :

I’m planning a 5–7 day trip somewhere in Eastern Europe — not for partying or chasing, but for something structured, low-stress, and reliable.
The idea is to stay in one city (Airbnb) and line up 2–3 GFE-style meets per day (3h, 6h, sometimes overnight), all arranged in advance.
Total budget: ~€1500 including accommodation, girls, and flights.
Cities I’m considering:
– Bucharest
– Sofia
– Chișinău
– Warsaw
What I’m trying to figure out:
– Which of these cities still realistically supports this setup in 2025?
– Are Telegram/WhatsApp contacts responsive — or mostly dead ends?
– Are prices still reasonable (~60–80€/h)?
– Is Airbnb a safe base — or are neighbors/landlords a problem?
Also open to other suggestions if there’s a better option out there right now.
Looking for real-world info, not theory. Any experience, contacts or advice appreciated.
