Do women or whoever it is trying to shutdown or remove this subreddit really find this such a threat to their existence or mode of operations? We must be doing something right here if that's the case.
bsutansalt 5y ago
I suggest getting in the habit of posting in duplicate at TRP.red.
CokeRockOnYourClit 5y ago
Are all top posts backed up on this site?
redpillschool Admin 5y ago
A good number of them, yes. https://www.forums.red/i/theredpill

Please backup asktrp's sidebar too. lots of good stuff there.
Since only top posts are backed, none of GLO's post in past two year is there, so does Whisper's latest two post.

I post purple pill debate more than here because I love the conversation.
Men's Rights I'm not so sure about. I don't respect anyone who takes a victim mentality in America in 2018. Whether they be men, women, black, white, Muslim, Christian, fat, atheist, etc
Your_Coke_Dealer 5y ago
I’d say yes as well, but in separate forums on the same site/network. It’s not that I’ve got anything against the people of MRA/MGTOW/etc., but it’s hard enough to get people to realize what is and isn’t within the scope of RP ideology as it is. Each of those communities have similar ideological consistency issues, such as MGTOW often absorbing incels who see ‘incel’ as an insult, and PPD being a concern troll haven. But they’re related ideologies, communities, and approaches to deal with the same decline we see, so they belong on the same path as us so long as they have their own lane to stay in.
redpillschool Admin 5y ago
Here's the list of forums I've added to forums.red:
TheRedPill | RedPillWomen | AskTRP | thankTRP | OffTopic
I highly doubt PPD would be removed, but in the event they were, I would add them too.
CantBreathWithNoHair 5y ago
Not PPD, they’re freaks.
kevin32 5y ago
Hold on. GLO wants to provide a space for MGTOWs and MRAs? I thought Endorsed members detested these men.
In that case I would like to ask that you consider a space for r-WhereAreAllTheGoodMen. We're a combination of MGTOW and Red Pill and showcase dating profiles of women complaining about wanting a "Good Man" after dating jerks and riding the carousel.
Some TRP Endorsed members comment there from time to time.
max_peenor 5y ago
Whoa, lets not get all histrionic here. At most I would suggest some of these men are still harboring unrealistic expectations. Or perhaps they've just given up. Yeah, I'm not fans of these things and I've said as much. I would never say I detest them. I know 90% of reddit thinks I hate women, but I can't help but do the opposite, even to my detriment.

I really appreciate the metaphor. Thanks for mansplaining.
Your_Coke_Dealer 5y ago
I can’t speak for GLO, but your sub (which I subscribe to) has a good overlap with TRP. Many TRP posters dislike the other ‘manosphere’ ideologies because they’re either defeatist or idealist responses to the same problem TRP approaches pragmatically. MGTOW, and more so any ‘blackpill’ sub, responds to the decline by checking out of the game, and MRAs say the rules are fucked and lobby to change them, while we try and coach guys only how to be a better player.
As I see it, WAATGM is RP-lite or tradcon-RP, pointing out hypergamy, shit tests, and the wall, but not advocating the RP response to it that amorally incorporates frame, game, etc. It doesn’t have a real direction of how to respond to the decline beyond pointing it out, but if MGTOW gets a spot, you should.
kevin32 5y ago
Thank you for your support. Yes, while we occasionally talk about how men can successfully date certain kinds of women, we focus on teaching men what women to avoid committing to, should they decide to get back in the dating game.
Cloudsurf89 5y ago
Have MRP and AskMRP been backed up too? Some absolute gems on those subs
[deleted] 5y ago
This is it, prepare to abandon ship.
Edit: on a side note, is there a chance we could have our own website with its own account system, like TRP.red but with more user interaction?
Your_Coke_Dealer 5y ago
I think that’s the purpose of forums.red; TRP.red is an archive if this place gets shitcanned, and forums are to continue
[deleted] 5y ago
I mean, yeah, but trp.red has a long way to go if it wants to be the next TRP forum, at this to the extent that this sub was.
redpillschool Admin 5y ago
You can head on over to https://www.trp.red right now and register your account. You can even verify your reddit account so you can keep the same name.
The user account system is built and ready to go. Even includes 2-factor authentication if you so choose.
This account system works on both trp.red and forums.red. Forums.red has a forum system much like reddit, prefilled with top posts from here. It is currently locked but will be opened in the event we need to leave.

redpillschool Admin 5y ago
Try now.
Your_Coke_Dealer 5y ago
Forums.red is locked for now, so we have no way of knowing how much of Reddit’s network of masculine spaces transfers over and how much fucks off entirely
MrBateman2 5y ago
This is yet another reason why it's so dumb to prevent people from linking to their own blogs. Those blogs form a loose network that's hard to attack. When you delete those posts and ban those posters, you make yourself more fragile, in addition to denying collective knowledge.
Go read Antifragile.
vandaalen 5y ago
There is nothing wrong with linking to your blog unless you only do it in a way that does not provide any value to this place here. Aim to create win-win situations, provide good content, and I am sure that it will be welcome with open arms.
Marsupian 5y ago
You don't need direct links. Names are mentioned and people find their way around. No direct links is good for the quality of this sub.
redpillschool Admin 5y ago
You can link to your blog in a text post. We have no rules against it. We just remove you if it's spammy / low value content pushing people to click through to ads to see the rest. You must provide value in your text post.
ElegantCyclist 5y ago
That may be the theory, but it doesn't seem to be the practice.
IVIaskerade 5y ago
People are prevented from linking to their blogs to stop shitty bloggers spamming the sub with self-promotion.
Noblefiz 5y ago
Is there any way to address all the ECs, SECs, etc.. and have them make backups of all their posts? The longer I’m on TRP, the more I find post from tagged members that influence me in profound ways and I find it imperative that the posts from these members find a way to be saved in the event of a mass deletion.
TheRedPike 5y ago
They are being mirrored to the backup site. Nothing (or give or take) should be lost.
CokeRockOnYourClit 5y ago
What about asktrp threads and comments? There are some gems in there
redpillschool Admin 5y ago
I've been archiving the top posts of all the red pill subs. asktrp, theredpill, redpillwomen, and thanktrp.
Although some of those are a little out of date. I'll have to run another scrape for them.
But TheRedPill backup is current. https://www.forums.red/i/theredpill
Bear-With-Bit 5y ago
I'm surprised trp lasted this long here.
UnleashYourLife 5y ago
I guess there is no such thing as an absolute right to something - in this case free speech.
Glad there is so form of backup at least
Hillarysdilddo_2016 5y ago
All rights derive from violence. Period.
bradwbowman 5y ago
When I'm looking at trp.red and the forum, I don't see all the posts here. Are you actively archiving them over time and they will eventually all be over there?
I have a lot of posts saved via Reddit and would never want to lose them. Should I be using archive.is to be making my own backups of content I have found personally valuable?
Thanks!
redpillschool Admin 5y ago
Unfortunately we are only getting the 200-300 highest voted posts from each year.
Mildly_Sociopathic 5y ago
Do you still archive the top posts? I remember you did some years back but not sure about anything recently.
redpillschool Admin 5y ago
I usually run a scrape on the top 200-300 posts of each year.
Just ran one today. https://www.forums.red/i/theredpill
