TikTokcels and downfall of looksmax

[BoredPrince]

So many graycels and tiktokcels just ruined what this place once stood for


They come here asking for advice meanwhile they never had issues with girls and weren't bullied for their looks

So many of them asking for ratings when they know they're good looking just to flex on rest of us ig


Before it got popular, .org offered hope for those of us who were deemed to stay ugly, to ascend, not just to get girls, but to make suffering worthwhile for once

Now it's just another platform for those with good genetics to feel superior to others



It wasn't popular, it was like a secret, and that made it special

Like what's the point of flexing to incels, shouldn't these guys flex on insta to girls?

Like i wasn't against new users joining, but the amount of new people joining just erased everything that this place was made for

Instead of genuinely helping those who needed it the most, it became another soulless forum

Is there any way back?

Not with the amount of popularity it gets from TikTok, just look at the amount of unregistered users being here (15k rn)

There are some other looksmax websites with way less users but they're mostly dead

You're right, the ratings section is full of greycel stylemaxxed HTNs asking "what can I improve" when they look like tiktok stars. Fucking morons.

You basically joined at the beginning so I think you definitely noticed the difference over the years


Even now, when looking at old threads, the way users interacted and amount of new information being added, it felt completely different

The site was definitely more funny back then. More jokes, more beef and eviscerations, more distinct personalities.

And yeah the looksmaxxing info was better and more well-researched.

agree, i haven't been here for long but from dec 23 to now there's been a noticeable decline in content quality.

I don’t see anyone attractive asking for a rating here but what I do see is greys asking retarded questions which is why I’m working on an extension that blocks threads of users without 500 posts and with certain keywords

Greypocalypse is real

Im from tiktok but im truecel, imo the ones with good genetics just see it as a trend and will outgrow it within a year, think about the opportunity cost when they have so many chances in life vs rotting here and becoming miserable, but the ones who are truly genetically cursed will stick around and actually commit to looksmaxxing because theres really no other option for living a worthwhile life

Its like clav said, guys who have had their lives ruined because of their looks will be the ones to actually go through with ascending at any cost

Congrats on joining a few months before it all went to shit. Pre-tiktok era was something else man

Sure, we complained about how bad the site was, like we did every year, but it was so much less braindead back then.

I feel like summer 2023 was the last time this forum was truly fun to be on. Hopefully this summer is better

Yeah true, most of them are active for a bit and then just leave, while the ones who need surgeries stay

But still, the sheer number of new people joining and lurking, is making this like any other generic forum


The more popular looksmax gets, the more meaningless it becomes

Yeah, I was lurking towards the end of 2022 but decided to join because of increasing fear that forum will go private (we still had hope)

That summer was when the invasion really started, we tried to deter them by larping as nazis (jfl) but mods shut it down with warnings and temp. bans


I still hope this is just a trend that will pass, but every time I check insta, there are so many pages and influencers of looksmaxing, and edits so it doesn't seem it will go away anytime soon

there will never be secret communities on the internet anymore, it takes one person to tiktokify a platform, server, forum etc the days of a quiet niche collective are over for the most part
