It's just compared to other PUA forums out there Sosuave looks BAD in comparison. Seriously I don't know what happened, but maybe all the good posters went to other PUA forums(most likely what happened). Now this site is full of a bunch of self hating minorities whining about failure to bed white women and bitter chodes crying about "libtards"(yes, on a PUA forum). The few good discussions reside in the Health&Fitness and the Don Juan Tips section now. I have no idea about the Mature Man section, but I would assume it has some gold in there.
It was only a matter of time before this site fell though without its franchise "star" players like Pook and the other BOSSES who constructed the Don Juan Bible. No team can win a championship without star players to lead the franchise. If Jeffy, Julien, and Tyler Durden left RSD the same thing would probably happen to that site.
Some of them outgrew the site (and others like it), and some got married. These posters fulfilled the "right man/right time" principle.
The world is a very different place than it was ten or 15 years ago. There has been a continual downward spiral of societal forces that the pioneers didn't have to deal with. Whenever new social paradigms and realizations are pioneered, there follows an inevitable perceived stagnation period as equally ground-breaking new realizations cannot keep up with the continuing momentum of the relentless spiral downward of society.
Therefore, we see a generation outgrowing a community that has been saturated with new paradigms. The times have changed, and all that can be done now is refinement and an awakening of men to the true state of affairs.
Often, readers will interpret correct assessment of what is happening around us as "bitterness", especially the younger ones who have grown up in an incredibly feminized educational system. We are now in an identification and refinement era, which by nature tends to plod along slowly.
Many old black & white silent films were brilliant for their time, even by today's standards, and the pioneers in that industry are rightly regarded as geniuses. But we cannot go back. These are different times and today their genius wouldn't fly. They would be mediocre at best. But during their time, they made some stunning accomplishments.
Similarly, if the SS pioneers were just getting into this today, they would be just like any other poster on this forum. Some good ideas, some refinements, some observations, and that's about it. Some of the more prominent members of this forum could probably have attained the same legendary status had they started over a decade ago. But the foundation and main structure has already been laid, and we are here to pioneer the next phase, whatever that might be.
The phenomenon reminds my of trading currencies... I will watch my charts saw-toothing and consolidating for a while, with little movement for a long time. Then suddenly there is an explosion of movement up or down when there is sufficient collective energy built up by traders en masse. I believe we are now in a consolidation phase, and these can be rather boring and seemingly endless.
