Puahate.com​

PuaHate was a website that was initially intended to be an anti-pickup artist site and was created by a bitter former student of the Real Social Dynamics PUA company named 'Nicholaus' in 2009. It originally contained a splash screen saying the forum was NSFW and all people under 21 should not enter, as well as a footer detailing all the media outlets who had criticized the site.

The site's users were divided into two broad camps. The first camp were basically critics of pick-up artistry who were concentrated on the main "bash the scene" forum. The posts on this forum generally consisted of exposés of dodgy PUA practices such as charging several thousand of dollars for "game bootcamps" and the like, as well as posts mocking PUAs and posting their personal information.

The second camp, concentrated on the "shitty advice" forum, eventually started espousing LMS, looks theory, looksmaxxing techniques, and the "red pill". The culture of the forum was also centered around trolling, general autism, and the personal harassment/bullying of other users.Ideas developed on PuaHate include philtrum length theory, compact midface theory, and a focus on the importance of fWHR to male mating success. Over time, this second camp became the dominant faction on the forum.[2]This faction essentially represented a proto-blackpill movement, though there were never any forums explicitly devoted to inceldom or lookism. The most admired user from PUAhate (as well the entire PSL scene) is Jsanza29, an insecure vlogger who had trouble connecting with users and got very angry about the way Redditors rated his face. He was admired for his brutal honesty and emotional exhibitionism and is still discussed in other forums to this day.

  • mkg wants to get fucked by her tall, big-framed coworker.
  • mkg plans to get fucked by ivoryace.
  • Tyger and Aames make a suicide pact and visit the Golden Gate Bridge together.
  • 3/28 - hlimw18 from bodybuilding.com forums went on PuaHate under alpha18. to prove himself after some people questioned his slayer status. This resulted in a flame war.
  • 5/23 - Elliot Rodger kills six people in Isla Vista and then commits suicide.
  • 5/24 - PuaHate closes in response to the Isla Vista killings.

Sluthate.com​

Sluthate was created on May 26th 2014 and users migrated to it from PUAhate.com. Unlike PUAhate, it had a whole sub-forum devoted to 'Rate me Threads', further solidifying the evolution of the anti-pickup-artist scene into a lookist scene. Eurasian Tiger was a well known user of this site and lookism, and had lots of alt accounts to spread his attitude/worldview. The rumor is that he is not the same user named tyger on PUAhate who bullied Elliot Rodger sending him pics of AMWF couples.

  • November - Redpilltalk.com's server stopped responding to requests

Lookism.net​

For the focus on looks, see Lookism.
For the webtoon, see Lookism (webcomic).
About a year after Sluthate was created, users were complaining about its name, server issues, very slow loading times, the forum not banning pedo talk, and no limit on signature size.

Around June 2015 a sluthate user created lookism.net after sluthate suffered down time for a few days. The admin's name on lookism.net was/is 'Victory'. According to eggman, male models he talked to online said they browsed lookism.net as they were curious how they were talked about and how they stacked up relative to other male models. Video where eggy talks about this: [24]. Many users migrated to lookism.net's better server. Sluthate was renamed redpilltalk.com in December of 2015 to fix the name issue, despite the forum preferring the name 'incel rage'. By this point lookism.net was becoming relatively big.

Lookism.net is mostly known as a trolling board, one famous troll being a 'virgin' below named 'Orb' (below), who was from bodybuilding.com's misc board liked to fuck with the forum.


The 'dimez' Hack​

In mid July 2019, a user known simply as 'dimez' claimed to have hacked the website via an SQL injection and claimed to have access to the lookism database. His malicious activities included:


  • Doxxing notable users
  • Posting member's IP addresses
  • Permanently banning notable members and moderators
  • Deleting threads and posts
  • Taking the site offline entirely

The site was inoperative for a little longer than a week before the admin performed a rollback, but the damage was already done, with user participation declining dramatically. Online user count typically peaked around 1000 (including guests) before the hack, but almost never exceeded 500 afterwards. Blame for the attack was initially directed at the subreddit inceltears, but it was later revealed by inceltears moderators that they were not responsible and dimez was acting alone.

Many believe the hack never happened and was instead a cover or troll for a rogue staff member. The database was never publicly posted, and all of the abuse inflicted by 'dimez' could have been done by anyone with a staff account. Moreover, the coup attempt that happened in the following months sheds light on some of the shady behavior of the lookism staff, adding credibility to this theory.

After these events a public statement was made by the admin of the website stating that the website was never hacked and that he had traced these actions back to several staff members, who had now been stripped of their title and banned. The admin also stated the events were planned for months and that their motive was to increase the membership of a newly launched rival PSL site controlled by these same staff members who blamed the admin of lookism for his inactivity and neglect of his duties.


Zesto's Coup attempt​

In early October 2019, the forum was vandalized by Zesto/ZestoHot/Mafia/Mafia LT using Josh's super moderator account (which Josh voluntarily gave him, though Josh later expressed regret about this), and every thread on the board was slowly deleted over the course of a couple days. This event coincided with the deletion of many incel subreddits on Reddit, although Zesto did this independently in an attempt to hijack lookism's userbase and migrate them to a website under his control. This event shattered the PSL community, and many lookism users likened it to the burning of the Library of Alexandria or the fall of Rome, as years of useful looksmaxing information had been permanently lost.

During the remainder of October 2019, the forum was still operative, though effectively dead, as Zesto permanently banned all accounts that had been created before his coup. Anyone who wanted to continue posting had to create a new account, but online user count rarely exceeded 20 as most users had already migrated to different forums such as looksmax.me, Zesto's forum, or stopped posting altogether. Zesto continued posting on lookism sporadically during this time, and was also known to publish users' dox there if they angered him in some way.

In November 2019, the site was shut down, and then was re-opened in late December under original ownership and without Zesto.

Zesto has also been responsible for getting many incel websites shutdown, including lookism, by reporting them to their host and having their account suspended.


Board restoration​

After Zesto's failed coup attempt, Lookism was restored in December 2019 and users moved back to Lookism.net. One of the admins stated he had backups of deleted Lookism content, but personal IRL issues had prevented him from restoring the forum earlier.
In 2020 Lookism stopped using the free forum Software MyBB and started using the propietary software Xenforo.


Shutdown​

Around December 2021. Lookism.net officially shut down
