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 them all.

What's a good site for me to upload them onto the web these days so you and others can download them which doesn't expire?

Start with BANG which was Rooshv's best seller dating book.

Yes, he sold more copies of Bang than all his other books combined.

He wrote that book when he was 27 and living in his father's basement.  He went out constantly, taking the Metro and bicycling home at 3:00 a.m.  He got laid 5 times per year, or roughly one girl every other month, sometimes fat or ugly.

Roosh spends $6,500 per Lay

Roosh plagiarized Neil Strauss's The Game ideas, down to the revised title.  Neil Strauss wrote about visiting a college friend in Ukraine, and that is what Roosh eventually did.  But Roosh largely struck out in Ukraine until he met an English-loving girlfriend at work when he taught English.  The advice in Game is just bad or obvious.

Review of "Game"

It's really amazing how, in the "post PUA" era, people are realizing that the gurus were all frauds. With the resurgence of MAGA and the political pendulum making a seeming swing back to the center or conservatism, PUAs could make a come back. You already see Owen Cook starting to do more PUA stuff and less of "self-help." Does this mean that a new generation of young men are ready to be exploited?

I don't think anyone outside of Mystery and Paul Janka had real success with women. Even then, Mystery was the ultimate clown entertainer (literally doing magic tricks like at a carnival) and Paul Janka was a tall good looking Harvard grad who just happened to fall into the PUA community. Paul never needed game to get women but he did see how desperate men were for any advice, so he cashed in on it.

Personally I think most of Roosh's material is decent. Anything that will get guys talking to girls in a reasonable, respectful way is probably good.

Game material still has value, including Roosh's work. Definitely helped me break out of my shell. My comment was more about the gurus.

Realistically a small book is all you need with some basic tips and a few lines to kick off conversations. Beyond that you have to go out there and talk to a bunch of people and see what works for you.

The problem is that this doesn't generate enough money for slimy people like Owen so he has to continually pump out products to fleece suckers.

What's crazy is the audience that Owen Cook gets. I see young fit dudes, old dudes, rich guys, poor guys, racial/ethnic diversity etc... Owen still having runway is as much a symptom of what ails men, not necessarily Owen's ability.

Agree 100%, very helpful if you're starting out or if you need a refresher but past a certain point I found reading PUA stuff held me back more than it helped me.

I remember liking some RSD stuff back in the day but I wouldn't bother watching any of Owen's stuff now.

The issue is people will respond to each individual differently so what works for one guy won't necessarily translate to someone else. If you have a really attractive guy being too cocky people will probably hate that but if it's coming from a more average guy it might be entertaining. There is no substitute for direct experience.

Interesting enough the ability to talk to strangers is probably becoming more valuable than ever due to people being less social and more online.

What helped me the most was the PUA material giving me ignorant courage to go out and try stuff. I always struggled with understanding women but I started reading alt.seduction all the way back in the early 2000s when Tyler (Owen), Mystery, and others used to post. Then the practical advice on fashion and logistics was the next big leap. I finally lost my virginity thanks to game material only because I kept putting myself out there.

Nowadays I have less interest in trying to game women (the conversion rates are low from cold approaches) but it's a big enabler in generally interacting with people. Most importantly, the tactic to focus on others and allowing people to speak about themselves. It's amazing how you let someone talk for the entirety of the conversation and they think you're their friend all of a sudden even though you have barely said anything about yourself.
