I don't blame him. I blame myself for failing to get through to him, and teach him better life skills.
Back when he was writing me fawning private messages, looking for attention... I was embarrassed. I never wanted to be a sensei or father figure for other dudes. I wanted men to stop being... programmable in that way.
So I kind of brushed him off. Not hostile, just by ignoring the messages. I was uncomfortable in the role of father figure. It just feels... weird... dominating other men. I get sexual kicks out of dominating women, but dudes dominating other dudes feels kinda... I dunno... gay.
Of course, after a while he started trying to AMOG everybody, and even eventually tried it on me, several times. Needless to say, it didn't go well for him, and each time, he'd back off from reddit for a while until the ego-injury recovered.
I'm not proud of that. I'm actually ashamed of it.
I should have handled him better than I did.
As for what you have to say about monetization, I try to judge only the product, not the act of monetizing itself.
It would be very easy for me to say "oh, I'm against it, it distorts the message". But I would be saying that from atop a large pile of cash, which would make me a bit Marie Antoinettish.... "Just be a successful techbro, with two successful techbabe wives, and no kids. Then give away your stuff for free as a passion project!"
So I respect act of hustling, but there are smart and stupid ways to do it. Andrew Tate is not a smart man.

Honestly didn't knew about other tribes. Now I have to say this site is looking prosperous. I take my words back.

@Eaglesmgmt You registered about the time that a GLO adjacent topic came up, and you use about the same language as GLOGANG did to try to sow discontent.
The .RED platform's organic growth has been exceptional. Our analytics are showing a lot more traffic than simply the few examples of engagement you might see refreshing the public tribe.
Tribe owners can see their stats, and I know they're looking at good numbers.

@redpillschool Doesn't sound geniune from his side. Sounds like he created a fake rift just to get a closure to leave.

Obviously forgot about the one of the great dude @redpillschool. I have nothing but respect for you.
It's just that I'm saying that trp.red isn't really growing fast as compared to other TRP avenues that opened up. You put so much effort into this and people never appreciated it. I guess what's given for free isn't valued.
But I have to ask, if you received so many suggestion for people saying that they didn't like Twitter feed style, why did you keep it?
You know that it's very few dude talking to each other. I am not trying to belittle you. I am genuinely curious.
I think the reason we never took off is trust. People don't trust internet website enough to put so much info into it.

@Eaglesmgmt He had full editorial and moderator control of his Tribe, as anybody who makes a tribe does. My team didn't make any changes to his group, not once.
He wanted unfettered administrative control to the main tribe (Public Square) on TRP.red.
I told him "no."
By the way, the same "no" I told other folks, who demanded we ban GLO or they wouldn't participate.

@redpillschool Can you tell me EXACTLY what happened with GLOgang? I think he cites it as the reason for leaving.

My bad I'm fucking tipping right now. I can't blame these guys for anything. Sorry typo.
