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 site's users were divided into two broad camps.

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. | The second camp, concentrated on the "shitty advice" forum, eventually started espousing [[LMS]], looks theory, [[looksmaxxing]] techniques, and the "red pill".

Ideas developed on PuaHate include philtrum length theory, [[compact midface]] theory and its focus on fWHR. Over time, this camp became the dominant faction on the forum.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20151226053443/https://www.reddit.com/r/puahate</ref> | Ideas developed on PuaHate include philtrum length theory, [[compact midface]] theory and its focus on fWHR.

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. | This faction essentially represented a proto-[[blackpill]] movement, though there were never any forums explicitly devoted to [[inceldom]] or lookism.
