Time for a refresher in the basics of TRP. Some of you may be approved submitters, feel free to contribute if you can. Otherwise, the rest of you should take some time to read up on some sidebar. I've taken the liberty of reposting some of the more important features of our content so new members can enter into new discussions regarding it.

Posting will be re-opened when I feel like it.

Thank you, after yesterday's "Sperm inserts the man's DNA into the woman's brain" it was needed.

[–]Redpiller778 points9 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

If that were true, could it be use to breed superkids? I mean, if a woman had the DNA of humankind greatest minds...

I know it's imposible, but imagine the posibilities. Eugenics at its finest.

[–][deleted] 26 points27 points  (15 children) | Copy Link

I haven't read that post, but I remember reading somewhere that female body absorbs DNA from each of her sexual partner. Therefore if you have a child with a promiscuous girl you're indirectly cucking yourself because the child will have DNA of other men, too.

No idea whether this has been scientifically proven or not.

[–]RonTomJohnson55 points56 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

I tried correcting them and was told I'm a clucking idiot. Never mind my degree is in microbiology... They posted a time magazine blog article with a broken link to the actual study.

[–]Reformed65 7 points7 points [recovered] | Copy Link

Ohhhh that's why those girls have Bipolar disorder, they have Chad's DNA in their brain that's getting into beef with Tyrone's DNA as well.

Ohhhh now that makes sense.

/s ^(unless that's actually what happens).

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegony_(pregnancy)

It says on Wikipedia that it isn't true. Though to be fair, Wikipedia can be wrong.

Though it sounds like medieval superstitious bs to me

[–]Troll_Name16 points17 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

I would call this a rare occurrence of Wikipedia being right.

One sperm fertilizes one egg; the eggs are not generated like sperm they are stored long-term. The eggs are not altered at the genetic level through sex, nor is there more than one man's sperm entering the same egg.

[–]FirstNamesMusic24 points25 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Exactly, the post I was making fun of said literally that sperm inserted the man's DNA into a woman's brain and that's why women get back together with their exes so much.

Had me laughing.

[–]ThrowFader5 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

deleted What is this?

[–]ohyeawellyousuck3 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Rare? I'd say it would be more accurate to say they are right more often than not. Nearly all of the information on the website includes sources, which is more than you can say about many other websites, including news outlets, and especially reddit.

It feels a little humorous that a reddit post, a website that is littered with misinformation and upvoted comments that make wild claims with no references, is calling out Wikipedia for, as you put it, rarely getting it right.

This isn't a high school English class. You can use Wikipedia as a source. Just use some common sense. If it doesn't provide a source for a wild claim, or references something absurd like a reddit post, then be skeptical.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

It's called Telegony but I have no idea if it's real or pseudoscience.

[–]Darkistco 2 points2 points [recovered] | Copy Link

it was an old post i remember, yes a piece of the mans dna is left in her every time she gets creampied.

i made the joke,

the thousand cock stare is the thousands of men looking at you through her soulless eyes

[–]untonyto1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

That joke is too dark to qualify as a joke. You should write horror. There is also a theory that states that sex is a means of transmitting demons, and this here "joke" of yours lends a fuckton of credence to that line of reasoning.

[–]destraht3 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Unfortunately Western Ukrainians seem to generally all believe some weird stuff about a man's DNA/hormones sticking around for the lifetime of the woman and influencing children even ten years later. I think that it was probably a man's voodoo juice at one point and then it was updated with scientific lingo, since science is good, m'kay. It was very disheartening to be with several people who were educated, knowing 3-4 languages each and to stumble upon their agreement in eugenics pseudo-science folklore.

[–]Just_Isaak2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I️ don’t post strictly because I️ feel my issues with women really aren’t to serious and the post would be laughed at. But these two titles I️ just read above this comment take I️t to another level of stupidity.

[–]Idkhowyoufeelaboutme2 points3 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

I remember seeing that and considered unsubbing. Sad considering trp gave me my greatest leaps in life but thank the mods aren’t incels.

[–]JackGetsIt0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

A post like that almost feels like a troll.

[–]JcHgvr0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Sounds like I missed a real gem.

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

Lmao I remember reading that and I was like wtf is that guy on about. I'm hard pressed to believe the guy has even seen a vaj.

[–]chaseemall-1 points0 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I wouldn't be surprised if telegony and slutface didn't have some truth behind the myth.

[–]Peshwa_ 21 points21 points [recovered] | Copy Link

This was needed, badly.

[–]furiouszeno64 points65 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah, I found myself raising an eyebrow at every second submission on the front page yesterday, it was a sperg race to the bottom.

[–]Throwawaysteve12345633 points34 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Congrats, you just prevented this site getting shut down because of a handful of angry incels. The decline in this forum recently is unbelievable.

[–][deleted] 64 points65 points  (25 children) | Copy Link

Good.

I feel like much of TRP's content/submissions has somewhat declined in quality over the past year. From FRs from high schoolers to your usual, routine questions about stuff that's been on the sidebar for years. So much redundancy, yet so little new content.

This was a much needed move, and surely it will help the subreddit get "back on track" (not that it's lost, but you get the idea). Hopefully the younger posters realize that, too. And as a lurker, I'd be perfectly OK with TRP becoming an approved submitter -only subreddit. This might seem extreme to some people, but I feel like the quality of the posts would be much, much greater - not to mention you wouldn't see the same lame posts about getting a girl's number, or her Snapchat, or whatever the fuck she uses to communicate... like it matters.

[–]Modredpillschool[S] 44 points45 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

It's been an ongoing battle since I've been here. There will always be a signal to noise ratio that needs to be nudged as time moves forward.

All it takes is dedicated members to keep submitting high quality content.

[–]JagsDontCare7 points8 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Great overall strategy. I think you should be relentless as far as the timeline before posts can be submitted again. This place has been a stay away for quite some time due to the lack of quality not only in submissions but membership. It seems the cult effect of the “Red Pill” has drawn out the weak minds and each post becomes a back and forth of beta/feminists ideals contradicted by a wide array of personal conflicted projections. Thanks again for the implementation, been a lurker since 2012.

[–]trexgomez 1 points1 points [recovered] | Copy Link

Or we could have ratings from mods on each post so we know which content is recommended and which is shit

[–]JackGetsIt4 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Maybe endorsed contributors could also endorse new posts. Instead of removing a lot of posts you'd see something like (3 endorsed contributors have recommended this post)

[–]Denver_Luv315 points16 points  (10 children) | Copy Link

So much redundancy, yet so little new content.

Because once a guy understands the basics (evolutionary biology, game (and lifting), putting himself first, AF/BB, how feminism has morphed into a socially approved effort to put women's needs above men's, don't get married, focus on your own career), there isn't a huge amount more to say. RP is not math or computational biology, which appear to be infinitely varied.

Once a guy gets the basic principles, it's all application, and usually application to some other domain. Reading books is also more useful than reading more Internet.

I will sometimes have a comment on some news stories or short personal stories, but those are banned here, so I put them on a blog instead. IMO there are a lot of good game writers out there, but they rarely or never post here.

[–]3whatsthisgarg7 points8 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Because once a guy understands the basics (evolutionary biology, game (and lifting), putting himself first, AF/BB, how feminism has morphed into a socially approved effort to put women's needs above men's, don't get married, focus on your own career), there isn't a huge amount more to say.

Right, and there's more: communication with women (when to do it and when not to), boundary enforcement (there's a right way and a wrong way to to do it), other differences between the sexes (eg, female aversion to male weakness and vulnerability), and so on.

Another thing, from my perspective as an older man, what I've been doing in my posts is looking BACK over my life and identifying RP principles and how they played out way before there was TRP.

It has been fucking illuminating. For me, all questions have been answered. All confusions have been clarified.

A new example from years ago occurs to me every once in a while and I write it up and post it, but when the commentary is so fucking stupid it is de-motivational.

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

Yes. I am not saying that TRP should be flowing with new content every other day. At some point, the subjects have been covered. This is not to say there can't be new submissions about those subjects, on the contrary.

[–]1nrokchi1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

FRs are handy once the understanding exists; issue was FRs showing gross misunderstanding of basic principles, blatant misogyny (popular belief that is what TRP is, but certainly is not; just a different set of priorities/aims), and self-congratulatory hey, I got laid! tripe.

[–]gELSK0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

// , The "building power" category is pretty flexible, regardless.

Evolutionary biology and, especially, game both need constant reinterpretation to communicate them to untrained audiences.

[–]willowhawk-1 points0 points  (5 children) | Copy Link

What game writers do you have in mind?

[–]Denver_Luv3 1 points1 points [recovered] | Copy Link

What game writers do you have in mind?

And this is the kind of thing that makes people look stupid. Seriously, 60 - 120 seconds of browsing my posting history will answer that question. Think and check the obvious places before you post.

[–]willowhawk0 points1 point  (3 children) | Copy Link

It really doesn't tho🌚. The time taken to write a comment pumping up your own superiority could of been spent writing a quick list. Ya prick.

Edit: jesus fucking wept, just went through your post history and I've gotta search through shitty constant uploads of porn and fake approach videos. Fucking moron

[–]Denver_Luv3 1 points1 points [recovered] | Copy Link

And now you know why no one replies to you or tries to help you.

[–]willowhawk-1 points0 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

But they do. Ahahah what a moronic reply

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Mods appreciate reports.

[–]AwkwardEmpath4 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Agree entirely.. as a new sub. This sub is all about being the best male you can be. I don't want second rate info from a field report that's not realistic. I want to read from the best; relatively reputable info and opinions ideally.

[–]metallicdrama0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah and then you were supposedly “concern trolling” and get massively DV’d if you vocalized an observation of a genders decline. I stopped lurking for awhile because there was so much crap

[–]TheDevilsAdvokaat0 points1 point  (6 children) | Copy Link

How do you get new approved submitters, if the subreddit is approved submitter only?

[–]Modredpillschool[S] 4 points5 points  (4 children) | Copy Link

It's not permanent.

[–]TheDevilsAdvokaat2 points3 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

I was commenting on his comment, that says "I'd be perfectly OK with TRP becoming an approved submitter -only subreddit"

The point was, if it did, where would new submitters come from?

Your post says "for the day". His post refers to a permanent change.

[–]Cannabeast2 points3 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Make it so that the comments are still open for everyone and people can submit their comment history for review and approval

[–]thebrandedman0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

That's encouraging. I had just considered writing my first post based on a challenge I heard somewhere in here that I took up.

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

Well, now.

[–]Endorsed Contributorsadomasochrist16 points17 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Good idea, just submitted Hypergamy doesn't care about women either... An OC twist on foundation content. Credit to u/Rollo-Tomassi for the original idea that "hypergamy doesn't care" which was written for the male POV.

[–]RP_Tesla15 points16 points  (4 children) | Copy Link

Aww, shoot. I was about to post another field report.

[–]Modredpillschool[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Hold on to it. If you still think it's worth posting after I reopen posting, go for it.

[–]anonmmmm1122 points3 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

Don't forget the link to the discord server /s

[–]RP_Tesla2 points3 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Implying there's something wrong with having a live chat environment to discuss RP related topics that is incel-free?

[–]anonmmmm1121 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

No reason to defend yourself. I was joking, thus the /s at the end.

Edit: its a good source so you should.

[–][deleted] 21 points22 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Finally, Thank you. Lmao

[–]ISaidThatOnPurpose10 points11 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

TRP was quickly becoming am echochamber for pick up artist wannabes

[–]TooHoly9997 points8 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

The only way quality and varied content can continue to be produced is to broaden the spectrum of what TRPers are encouraged to produce.

Wake up at 5AM was a quality post, had little to do with getting laid. Wake up like a coked up madman was quality content as well.

The practical online dating guide was the best thing I've ever read on here; it is the definitive guide to online dating. But I guarantee we will see another online dating guide of poorer quality within the next month.

I'd like to see broader, more practical discussion of masculine things. "Top rep ranges for your goals." "My experience with roids." "How to actually not masturbate." "Investments for 2017."

These are just random titles made up off the top of my head, but you get the idea. In my opinion, TRP should be partially about other things that improve your life, and are an indirect benefit to your SMV, rather than a ton of theory posts.

It's less time sucking that way.

It encourages people to do rather than think that way.

It gives more actionable advice that way.

We're not arguing over what alpha means that way.

[–]Modredpillschool[S] 8 points9 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

We've got some news coming up soon on new topics that I'd like to explore. I've touched on them briefly before but here's a teaser:

  • Building Power
  • Building Tribes

[–]thebrandedman2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Looking forward to it. The tribes aspect has me curious.

[–]1Your_Coke_Dealer10 points11 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Let the noob pogrom begin!

[–]swagile9 points10 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I am not sure if Reddit has this feature (I haven't been on Reddit for a long time), but I know that in certain forums you can enable a feature that makes it so until a moderator looks at your post and approves it, it doesn't show up.

You can post anything you want, but its not going to show up for anyone but a moderator till they click a button and "accept" your content, which then makes it view-all.

Maybe you guys should start thinking about using that if its an actual option on Reddit.

[–]NYCMusicalMarathon10 points11 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Such a redpill statement.

Alpha male to female,
"I'll be in touch when I decide to be in touch"

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

[–]j_arbuckle20124 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

This should be a weekly thing.

[–]Imthatguyyo3 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah I was reading some posts that seemed odd yesterday and then I read about the super alpha...

[–]almostshredded4 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I kinda enjoyed reading some splerg action

[–]JackGetsIt5 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

One of the reasons I drifted away from reading a lot of redpill has been that the good content is still there but never quite gets voted up because of all the other crap you have to wade through to find it.

[–]nolanls432 points3 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

Guess I’m retarded.... is the side bar not available for mobile and iPad?... if so help me out.

[–]1nrokchi2 points3 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

This is similar to a fast.

Good to go a day without sometimes.

[–]leviathan515 points6 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

This is similar to changing the diet. Removing (very autistic, blue-pilled IQ80) sugar.

[–]1nrokchi2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Mostly true.

It's a strange atmosphere in here at times, as there's a strong emphasis on confirmatory biology but any evidence of biology counter to the central tenants is dismissed or skeptically (and, often, cynically) reviewed. Sugar is a good example of it.

Let's start with smoking for a moment. We know smoking is bad. Evidence is out there suggests vaping is bad. Yet, there are still doctors (i.e., doctoral-educated individuals in human physiology) who smoke. Why? Clearly they aren't "autistic, blue-pilled IQ80" (on the surface). At a minimum, the IQ guess is off.

Sugar is no different. There are many exceptional professionals out there we would recognize as being, for the most part, examples of The Red Pill Life. Yet, they drink, consume sports drinks, enjoy dessert, and so fourth.

Sugar also has the other complicating factor which approach does not have: approach is about mindset; sugar is about addiction and habit. To break one's addiction to sugar, one must engage in a form of cognitive behavioural therapy (e.g., one eats dessert at night, around 9 PM; changes setting to be out of the house between 8 PM and 11 PM, so upon returning home he heads straight to bed).

I think what caught me was the idea that failure in inherently linked to "blue-pill" thinking. It isn't and it shouldn't be thought of like that. It creates a harsh transition out of the comfortable and ignorant life into a more successful and fulfilling one. People need to know that they will fail at this. Good. We also have tools and techniques that help men understand where and how they failed, how to build from the failure, and how to avoid repeating those failures in the future.

After all, if you aren't failing, you aren't even trying.

[–]Blackhawk24792 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I was disappointed when I read “for the day” but then partly reassured by “when I feel like it”.

Do us all a favour and try not to feel like it for a while...

[–]MarvelousWhale1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Feel free to extend this to the rest of the week, we don't need new content from the young dumb and full of cum

[–]syf3r2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

TRP was becoming a caricature of itself. The problem is that the influx of new people is drowning out the good posts. A group of a few dozens are no match from the upvote power of thousands. I wonder if this can be remedied by having mods and tagged contributors to be the only ones to upvote / downvote? (not sure if this is possible, but would be great).

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Thank God. Thank fucking god.

Truth be told the signal to noise ratio has been brutal. Upvotes don't mean a thing, at least the briganding going on by commenters is so obvious that even I can see it. I've reached the point where if I see an actual red pill post or comment I feel like I've found this nugget in a mountain of stuff. Not manure, but stuff. Every now and then I find one good enough to keep me coming back, but it gets tougher and tougher.

This is just what this sub needed.

[–]ScrewChaseBank1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Call me crazy, but the globalist shills have infiltrated this sub, and are pushing a globalist, feminized, effeminate man agenda. This sub is one of the last strong holds of true “manosphere” out there that hasn’t been totally taken over by SJW cucks, and now they’re here for us.

I see it in the comments, it’s typical shilling you see on other subs (conspiracy, politics, etc). It’s subtle, but the goal is to shift mindset incrimentally over time through fake groupthink. Tons of wisy washy blue pill ass comments making it to the top of threads, comments which this sub 2 years ago would have fucking torn to shreds. We’ve been compromised boys. Don’t let them take the red pill from us.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Thanks for grabbing the wheel and welcome back boss. Men need you.

[–]probablyatworkQQ1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

[–]Boddicker060 points1 point  (3 children) | Copy Link

Sorry, I’m very new and I don’t understand all the reddit terminology, and I’m using the app on my phone, but what is the “sidebar”?

[–]gELSK1 point2 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

// , It's part of the interface on the desktop website.

If you open reddit in desktop mode, you can see a bar on the right side of the page, roughly analogous to a nav-bar in many websites.

It has links to content that they usually want users to read before they post. This prevents posts about irrelevant topics, or questions which have already been thoroughly answered.

[–]Boddicker060 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

Thanks. So how does one access it through the app, or is that impossible?

[–]gELSK0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

// , Check the other questions on this thread. Someone answered it already.

The short version is to find the three dots, and mess around with the interface

Search the page for "sidebar" and you should see someone else's answer

[–]RPBulletDodger0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

This, plus the Stop Advocating Marriage comments lately make me believe that 2018 is gonna be a great Red Pill just another year.

Fixed now that a couple of weeks have gone by.

[–]sgtmajorproblem0 points1 point  (3 children) | Copy Link

Great idea! Just please make your post headlines shorter.

[–]Modredpillschool[S] 5 points6 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

Just please make your post headlines shorter.

Nope. Easy-to-digest and clickbait are gone. It's time to bring out the real guns.

[–]anonmmmm1120 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Please make it happen. Joined the subreddit a few weeks ago and even I have realised that fuck me the posts with over 500 likes a year ago don't compare with the bullshit now. The sidebar and the books is where the knowledge is at. Not in the subreddit. Not anymore at least.

I suggest making it a primary rule : hei piss head, if u think you have to tell us how trp changed ur life because of an IOI last night, just go to asktrp or.. NOT HERE.

I will forever remember this day if, indeed, the path of rtrp changes now.

A survey of eligibility with proof of passing it might be an alternative of filtering who posts here.

Personality i don't feel like posting my knowledge until i start spinning plates and they start spinning themselves. I find it disrespectful otherwise.

[–]anonmmmm1120 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Just saw your last thread. Thanks man!

[–]maplemaximus0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Lack of Field Reports is our problem.

[–]1ozaku70 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

What do you do about fucking girls who are friends? I broke up with this LTR I was with for almost a year but now I’m trying to bone her friend who isn’t exactly the best of friends with her, their relationship is rocky but what can I do about that

[–]ThrowFader-4 points-3 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

[–]Modredpillschool[S] 7 points8 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

I think approved submitters have no monopoly on truth.

Of course they don't. But they do have a track record of quality content. That's why we've endorsed them.

[–]TRPAndNofapGotMeLaid 0 points0 points [recovered] | Copy Link

Just a question for a good friend of mine that I am introducing TRP to, if he reads "The Rational Male" how much of that covers the sidebar? Is there a point to reading both?

[–]Modredpillschool[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

There is much overlap, but our sidebar has about 50% non-rational male content, and of course Rollo's books have like 90% not side-bar material.

Read it all if you can.

[–]Salted_Pretzel-1 points0 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Can we leave the front page like this for a good solid month? What else is there to post? Advice that's been repeated over and over? No thank you. Basics and re reading post is better.

[–]madking696969-1 points0 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

i support this movement. good to be reminded

[–]dropit_reborn-1 points0 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Dude! It's like a TRP renaissance!
