So, before you found this place, what stopped you doing that in the offline world?
In all seriousness here...
You could hang out with Roosh himself, and if he's having an off night then what? What if you see the guy approach and get blown out 10 times? He doesn't deserve rep points?
I've been out with a couple of the highest repped members on these boards with some of the most popular posts and glowing praise. I've seen them get blown out pretty bad, and they've seen me come up dry most nights. I guess that means we're full of shit?
Why? Because most night we go out to have fun, not to add notches to our count. Travelling is another story and I have yet to travel with another member, which would be a blast, but that's beside the point.
I rep forum members that bring intelligent discussion to the forum. I also rep guys that I meet in person who are red-pill and going against the mainstream. I don't need to see them pull a ONS for me to believe that they're "the real deal".
I mean, I got to witness the epic meeting between Neil Skywalker and Fisto, outside of a Hollywood club with some black chick's lipstick all over Neil's neck and face. No homo but I'd rather have done that than gotten another notch from a 6-7 that night. :grouphug:

In the words of some black gentleman, "real recoginizes real".
I've been here for years, I've gotten a lot of value from here.
If you are struggling to find value because you can't distinguish between something of merit and something that is beneath your interests. I'm thinking it's because you have some more to grow.

This forum is solid. I think the culture mostly reflects the attitude of its creator (Roosh) who is laid back and and doesn't hype up shit.
I've noticed it's not even necessary for me to participate in most of the argumentative threads since there's already another guy who can make my point - in many cases better than I can.
As for meeting up with people, I do that whenever I get the chance and I have yet to have any bad experiences meeting up with RVF'ers. From the Roosh DC meetup to people I've linked up with in my travels, everyone has been pretty solid.
I had the most fun in a pickup scenario with Warder (NYC) who hardly even posts from what I can tell. That dude is a real player. I try to, but not always, indicate in my ratings of other members whether I met up with them, sometimes going back to edit my rating to mention that.
That said, so long as you're providing value and not trolling threads with bs, I'm appreciative.

Do we need to fuck the girl in front of a RVF appointed committee to make sure she's hot enough, and that the bang actually happened? What if she's a semipro, but I only pay her taxi money, does it still count?
Just start meeting more members in person and seeing who they vouched for. I take the opinion of the members I'm actually friends with more seriously than I do others I've never met. I also take the opinions of people they've met and told me are legit more seriously. For example, I'd never take advice from thedude75736, because Fisto told me he literally is a midget IRT.

Thedude3737 is probably the closest person to being a real life renaissance man I've ver met.
Strangely the guy keeps no food I his house.
When I stayed there for 18 hours by myself I could only find canned tuna and books in music and goddamned lucid dreaming. Plus one for the motivation to restart going after lucid dreaming though.

Rep points don't mean a whole lot, muc. I take each post on a case-by-case basis but even then my judgement isn't exactly worth a shit either.
Yeah I recall you were going on that witch hunt about high ranked members who might not be well-rounded - though 2Wycked may not have the best game (never met the guy but might sometime soon as we are fairly local) he has insights into one of the greatest cultural diseases of all time (the n-word, narcissism). That alone is a strong contribution. I know he borrows or steals ideas from the last psychiatrist (who doesn't?! how couldn't they!!) but still, the application is what counts here, and to be honest, if he has a college degree in the subject and is able to come up with new insights, that alone is worthy of rank; few people can stand to think that way.
I used to be hardcore into the psychology of psychopaths, read pretty much every book written by any good specialist in the field (Robert Hare, Hervey Cleckley, far too many scientific studies, etc.), while it was fascinating and wholly engrossing, I'll be damned if I wasn't seeing psychopathic people and borderline behavior at least once a month, and that scared the shit out of me. Psychopaths are about as undomesticated as people can be, literally nothing separates them from animals, and it gave me great fear to know that one or two exist within my social circles. Have they done anything? I don't know, and I don't care to either. That kind of shit is life-limiting behavior.
Reading masses of analytical and psychological literature of that depth (or even applying it, game is psychology, no?) can change a person, you see the world differently, and you can't understand that you must sacrifice your blissful lack of awareness (of which practically causes feelings of safety and happiness, or a shallow sense of unease depending on your situation) in exchange for a lifelong low level of anxiety until you care to try.
You can't even know that you and most people have an irrational feeling of trust for the common man, that trust which must be forsaken, until you see the world through the lens of some kind of analytical psychologist. It's upsetting and it can induce a great deal of doubt and paranoia. Other people will dismiss your fears as being the neurotic ramblings of some barely sane man, but it's then that you realize that the most fearsome of people can move undetected, often for years. Sure, it might be irrational to fear that 1% of people who are utterly unhinged - but those people leave a huge mark and cut a wide swath, you don't want to be in the way of the reaper when they care to strike.
Seriously, read up on some modern serial killers if you think I'm full of shit, so many family members and acquaintances of these maniacs would say "Oh, he was just the best son a mother ever could have, I simply refuse to believe that he wasn't framed by some sick pervert" or "Great coworker, always up for a cold beer after work and had great attention to detail, can't believe he was a cannibal and necrophile and dissolved all those bodies in acid". I even knew a few psych majors who were just neurotic bastards - utterly convinced that they themselves were psychopaths because they "fit the criteria" - morons, the lot of them.
