What is MarriedRedPill, what is askMRP?

27 points16 commentssubmitted by Rian_StoneMod / Red Beret[M] to r/askMRP

Lately I have noticed some off-topic and varying levels of usefulness in the posts between the two subs, and I'm offering some clarification for everyone on the pupose of MRP and askMRP.

Marriedredpill is the space to discuss RP strategies, produce field reports, and provide value to each other from within a committed relationship. It's since grown to encompass a few other properties:

  1. Demographically older, and all the nuances that comes with it
  2. Generally focused more on pragmatism, and less on over arching systems. Getting your own house in order, and not worry so much about society crumbling around you
  3. A much lower tolerance for self pity; our one-victim-puke rule
  4. No fat chicks

When I first started my MAP, there wasn't an askMRP. It's still not universally accepted among the readership. It was a solution to the simple questions How do we filter low quality, un researched, value leeching questions without turning MRP into The Oliver twist forum, always asking for more?. Is there any way to polish those turds into something useful?

So askMRP was created. I'm surprised people post there as much as they do, it's always been I'm too lazy to start, so I need spoonfeeding. the users who respond, mostly do so because teaching a thing is the best way to learn a thing.

So, we are where we are. regression to the mean. Having said that:

  1. Questions end with a question mark. If you post a field report or a navel gazing post onto askMRP, we both know you know it's shitty quality, and think it goes into the shit pile. It doesn't. Your post would have been better in the weekly OWS thread to begin with (that stickied post thats always updated), you're just too lazy to post more than one navel gaze before you Rambo your shit.

  2. If it's a field report, I don't give a shit if it's not up to Caddy McCadderson standards. If it's got some value for another person reading it, post it to MRP, thats the point. If you have a theory that ties together multiple field reports, it goes in MRP. If you're worried about getting grief, don't. I could give a 100% foolproof guide to banging supermodels, and someone would complain that superdupermodels will see right through it. Taking grief with a little good grace is good practice anyways.

  3. OWS posts aren't about what you wish you could do, or what you'll do tomorrow, it's about what you've done, and fleshing out your process. Others chime in to teach what they've learned, and point out the blind spots.

End of the day, if someone reading it can carve a success out of their life with the information therein, it's an MRP post. Don't worry if it's not 10/10, none of us will ever post a magnum opus, so don't worry it's not. If you have a question and can't be arsed to learn, askmrp and hope that someone else needs to refine their understanding of the same thing. OWS is for action, not pontification

What is MRP:

  • an awesome sub populated by some awesome and intelligent men

  • a great place to hang out with the boys, shoot the shit and trade war stories

  • the older, wiser brother that TRP resents

[–]SteelSharpensSteelMRP MODERATOR6 points7 points  (11 children) | Copy Link

There IS a lot of resentment from TRP on MRP. It's like they're kids with dynamite saying "Hey, look at me, I have some dynamite!" to a explosives expert.

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 5 points6 points  (5 children) | Copy Link

Which always makes me laugh. Considering the amount of overlap between the two, mods, flaired contributors, users...

It's like watching two brothers fight when dad just wants to read the paper.

[–]KingThunderAsunder 1 points [recovered]  (3 children) | Copy Link

I haven't been on reddit long but I've noticed there is a lot of highschool to college aged boys in TRP asking and talking an incoherent mess of vagueness and humble bragging, to outright arrogance. It doesn't seem beneficial, in my opinion, to anyone. I have to go back to MUCH older posts to get any kind of relevance out of some TRP posts. Also, posting on TRP from a MRP perspective seems to generate automatic attacks too. "AWALT" is spouted a lot. Overall, MRP (subreddit) makes more sense, to me, than TRP. For example - Feelings of death, in a foxhole or by some freak accident or even some unforeseen ailment, don't generate strong feelings of some plate you once spun, family and/or brotherhood are what comes to mind to bring you strength and comfort. Almost losing everything can really bring you a new and unique perspective.

the friends queue is your friend. I almost never directly view the sub.

And I guarantee once you get good at it, it's an entirely different experience.

TRP has a lot of noobs joining and probably most of the incels group is up there as well. In the last one year, suddenly it seems the demographic has fallen to high school / college levels. Most veterans have said what needs to be said and moved on.

[–]FieldLine2 points3 points  (4 children) | Copy Link

The assumption being, of course, that you are an explosives expert. The basis of your claimed expertise is that you were unlucky enough to get married before finding The Red Pill. That's it.

That doesn't automatically make you smarter, wiser, or more qualified to offer advice.

I don't have a problem with MRP as an institution. What I resent is your condescending attitude. Whether someone can offer good advice is independent of whether they frequent MRP instead of TRP.

So no, /u/88Will88, I don't resent my older, wiser brother. I resent you demanding my attention instead of inspiring it.

[–]weakandsensitive[M] 9 points10 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Parent has been banned.

Way to prove Will's point

Edit - Just in case the message is lost

I resent you demanding my attention instead of inspiring it.

It's simple - be a special princess on your own time.

So goes the age difference across the millennia. Everyone goes it better than those who came before, and those who came before claim everyone else fucked it up.

Can a 16 year old kid tell me how to handle a 40 year old woman? Nope.

Can a 69 year old man tell you how to handle an 18 year old woman? Yep.

You make the mistake that MRP needs the younger man, and MRP makes the mistake that we don't need the younger man.

3 weeks into my cut, 2 beer into my cheat meal.

Damn this reads like music

[–]bogeyd6MRP MODERATOR1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Do re me so fa la ti doh

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 2 points3 points  (4 children) | Copy Link

Garsh, you're just saying that because there's no kids on here to yell at 😂

[–]88Will88 1 points [recovered]  (3 children) | Copy Link

They cry like stuck pigs on TRP when you treat them way kinder than we treat each other in here. Too damn soft, I wish GLO ran the place.

[–]SteelSharpensSteelMRP MODERATOR3 points4 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

Tough times make for hard men. Hard men make for good times. Good times make for soft men. Soft men make for tough times.

This is fucking badass. Is it a quote, or is this a steely original?

[–]SteelSharpensSteelMRP MODERATOR1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I read it somewhere. It was applicable.

[–]RuleZeroDADMRP APPROVED3 points4 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Failures are born out of action. "Owning" by the very basis of being a verb, also implies action.

You shouldn't give a shit about others when holding yourself accountable. But, as u/weakandsensitive has rightly pointed out, MRP is gay, and will always be gay. Faggots like us invariably have relationship and other tendencies in common to make us useless faggots in the first place. Seeing other queers fuck up and get advice from reforming butt pirates allows for personal growth.

Action, with after the fact critique, is the only way to develop data points.

Can't we go with like losers or dumbfucks? I mean, it's not like we're in r/GRP. Plus, it's kinda insulting to homo's comparing them to some of the autist tards who plague this place.

[–]bogeyd6MRP MODERATOR5 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Like Rian, I also did not have an askmrp place to post. Instead I had to come to the big boys and take the real tests. Post dumb shit, get ripped apart, realize the value, and come back for more. My absolute favorite member was /u/[deleted]. Read my early post history and weep for my feeble beginnings. Yet I would have it no other way. The idea of watering this thing of ours down serves no real purpose other than to increase a number. If you can't handle some online assholes how do you expect to handle anything real?

As for askmrp, the best way to learn is to teach. The world needs ditch diggers.

When I first found MRP I somehow missed that askMRP even existed. Some of my early puss-faggery probably belonged on “ask” but overall I’m glad I was brought up in MRP where the men wore big boy pants. Trial by fire.... lots of fire.

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 0 points1 point  (18 children) | Copy Link

I think I was here before it was a thing... I think we were better off for it. I still treat it like septic tank

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (3 children) | Copy Link

No matter how advanced we are as a society, people still gotta shit somewhere.

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 2 points3 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

99% of the internet is a river in Chenai... I like to think this is our little British colony.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

I was meaning askMRP is the place people should shit because they gotta shit somewhere.

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I know what you said. I vague suggested people can shit on the rest of the internet, I do like the idea of a shit free section

[–]JDRoedellMRP APPROVED0 points1 point  (13 children) | Copy Link

Maybe it wasn’t a thing when I came here. Pre December 2015?

As much as it is septic in nature, I think it also keeps the quality a little higher on MRP. A necessary septic tank.

EDIT: I wasn’t picking up on your analogy at first, hence my “captain fucking obvious” reply here. Is the Red Man group doing a show this weekend?

[–]weakandsensitive1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

keeps the quality a little higher on MRP. A necessary septic tank.

Exactly.

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 1 point2 points  (11 children) | Copy Link

Yeah, Richard cooper is hosting this one. They got shawn smith, and everyone is psyched over the topic of BPD chicks.

Plus, I'm going on donovan sharpe tonight, not sure of the format there....

[–]JDRoedellMRP APPROVED0 points1 point  (10 children) | Copy Link

Awesome. I’ll check them out eventually if not live

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 0 points1 point  (9 children) | Copy Link

I'd say the weekend rmg. The boys are fucking coming with guns blazing. I opted out because they are all way more interested 9n crazy broads than I am

[–]bogeyd6MRP MODERATOR1 point2 points  (8 children) | Copy Link

Who even has the time for that?

[–]SteelSharpensSteelMRP MODERATOR1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

A truer statement has not been spoken.

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 0 points1 point  (6 children) | Copy Link

Partially that. I can only say "leave" be be done

[–]JDRoedellMRP APPROVED0 points1 point  (5 children) | Copy Link

I agree. At the most it’s useful to be able to I.D. a BPD or other crazy. Just enough to know to move on. Beyond that, it’s just like looking at a car accident for too long

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children) | Copy Link

honestly, I would have been more excited about the dude with the sex doll. Ever since my Heavy Metal Magazine reading days, I've always thought sexbots were a future thing, like cyberpunk or flying taxis.

And now it's here, and I'm rather disappointed.

All I have to offer anyways is one or two plates I had in my single days, and how obvious it is when you're not thirsty

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I remember when AskMRP was a new thing. Created because retards were bombing the main sub with aerial poop daily. We were still a small sub of about 6,000 and the need for a triage platform was recognized. It wasn't a perfect solution, but it did clean up the main sub and gave the mods a place to bounce the low quality posts to.

Of course, when I started under my original user name, there was no AskMRP and I was posting on the main sub in full retard mode. Never thought that anyone was brutal to me, just dead honest. In many ways I miss the smaller sub, elbow to elbow with everyone.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

Do we have a site back up for MRP? I am thinking that if TRP gets banned that they may go after MRP next.

[–]Rian_StoneHard Core Navy Red[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

[–]bluenowred 1 points [recovered]  (1 child) | Copy Link

Hey... my wife is starting menopause and has Borderline Personality Disorder... and shit tests me every day.... I'm passing most of them now. No sex for 4 months now... and has a close male friend who won't talk to me because I tried to put my foot down about them seeing each other. She continues to see him and insists it's platonic. Comments?

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
