Rodger’s manifesto never mentioned the word “incel” directly, though he spoke at length of his envy of other men’s sexual success and his sexual frustration. He only used the term “incel” a couple of times to self-identify in his internet posting career on [[PUAhate]]. | Rodger’s manifesto never mentioned the word “incel” directly, though he spoke at length of his envy of other men’s sexual success and his sexual frustration.

He spent some of this forum time in the anti-pick-up artist culture and websites tangentially related to dating, such as bodybuilding.com and PUAhate, where he vented his sexual frustrations. He also likely posted on an online looks rating and social media forum, “Teenspot”, under his “ElliotR1” alias. In his posts on the forum, he requested users rate his attractiveness and asked them what their perceptions of his ethnicity were. “ElliotR1” was enraged by the response by the forum’s users to his thread, as some stated that he looked “Mexican” and was a “5.5/10”. | He spent some of this forum time in the anti-pick-up artist culture and websites tangentially related to dating, such as bodybuilding.com and PUAhate, where he vented his sexual frustrations.

Other users mocked his overly rigid body posture (associated with autism), comparing him to the Star Trek character Spock. Rodger was accused of creating several alt accounts to flame users and give himself false ratings. However, some accounts purporting to be female, seemingly established users on the website, did give him high ratings.<ref>https://archive.vn/MOZwv</ref> Some users opined that his [[Dark triad#Vulnerable_narcissism|narcissism and sensitivity to criticism]], as displayed by him using sockpuppet accounts to rate himself high and his verbal lashing out towards women who gave him mediocre attractiveness ratings, was the reason he couldn’t get a girlfriend. | ||
There is no proof of him spending any time at all in the actual incel forums around at the time (such as [[incelsupport]] or [[Love-shy dot com|love-shy.com]]). | There is no proof of him spending any time at all in the actual incel forums around at the time (such as [[incelsupport]] or [[Love-shy dot com|love-shy.com]]). | ||
