CONGRATS! Great work from everyone on RVF.

5 years?! Cool beans. Did I miss anything epic? Newsworthy? Maybe someone can post a running timeline of notable moments in forum history to give us newbies an idea of how the forum came to be..

Post: #29

The RVF is like the modern day stonemasons.

A network of like minded guys who share common beliefs and values, but our diverse backgrounds and experiences means we can add value for each other and improve ourselves.

I'm looking forward to meeting more members in future.

I can no longer see the users at the bottom of the thread who are browsing it currently. Is that a new change? I don't really care if I can't see others users who are browsing the threat but I just noticed it.

I'm assuming we can post drunk in the drunk lounge, right?

Congrads on 5 years!

I enjoy this forum a lot. I feel like the majority of us belong to the same tribe or war band, more or less.

Congratulations on the 5 year anniversary.

Thank you Roosh for creating this forum. I've been a reader and lurker for about 2 years but only got around to registering a few weeks ago. It is really good to see your thoughts on moderation of the forum so openly stated. I have been treading carefully because of all the banned accounts I see. I imagine that the rest of the newbies appreciate the clarifications as much I do.

Yes, congratulations on 5 years!! This forum definitely helped change my life over the last year or more, allowing me to travel with confidence and knowledge, and date foreign women without spending lots of money. It also opened my eyes to the mistreatment of men in American society. It put words and thoughts to the feelings I was having. Thanks for empowering me, Roosh !!!

By the way, how about allowing some kind of thread where users can let off steam. Maybe in the "Everything Else" section, someone can start a Thread like "Flaming: Mexico" or "Flaming: Game" where folks are allowed some troll therapy. We are men, after all. We gotta let out that rage somewhere....

Great job, Roosh, and thanks for such a great resource.

Should be an interesting next five years. Wonder how many of the old school people will still be in the USA by then... 25%?

Post: #38

Congrats and thank you for having this special forum.

While I'm somewhat new and don't post everyday, there is seldom a day where I don't scroll though the various threads/new posts without soaking up some sort of new beneficial information.

Initially I thought it might be weird joining a forum and spending a lot of time discussing personal topics with guys I don't know, but it's incredible seeing how just a few months of being on here have changed me, for the better.

RVF is an invaluable source, thanks again.

Beyond All Seas

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
To be your own man is a hard business. If you try it, you'll be lonely often, and sometimes
frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Kipling

Thanks Roosh! You should be proud of what you have made.

Post: #42

RVF has literally given me more value than any material possession or informational resource I've ever owned. When I think about it, the day I stumbled on Roosh's blog has to be one of the most consequential days of my life so far, which seems silly but it really is the truth given how much it impacted my future. Huge shout-out to all the cats whose data sheets and game insights have unquestionably gotten me laid when I wouldn't have otherwise, or have otherwise contributed value to this forum that has made me a better man. Most of all, massive thanks to Roosh and Tuth for all the time and energy spent keeping this a high-quality community where we can come together in the noble cause of demolishing vagina foreign and domestic. Here's to another 5 years and beyond.

It's pretty clear what that thread is about, and it has existed long before this new rule change.

Post: #44

Is this the first post on the forum to reach 100 likes?

What are the most liked posts on the forum for that matter? Any way to check?

Post: #45

Congrats Roosh. I came here about 3 years ago wanting to learn more about Russian girls, I got much more than I bargained for.

I respect the amount of effort you put into to creating such a great space to attract great people.

Cheers

I'm glad Roosh has taken this direction. Personally I've been vocal in my criticism of certain elements of the manosphere a long time. It needs people challenging its established conventions. When I hear someone arbitrarily use the word "solipsism" I cringe. /thread-21981-...#pid400804

Given the huge chunk of the manosphere Roosh has previously represented (at least in traffic) this has great possibilities to develop into something new and stronger.

What is solipsism?

Awesome stuff Roosh.

It must bring you great pride for having affected so many men's lives.
