Incels.is

Incels.is is the largest incel forum in the incelosphere.
Created by SergeantIncel and Master on Nov. 7th, 2017, it was made directly in response to the ban of the /r/incels subreddit. Its status as an independent website offers its community flexibility, censorship resistance, and a greater degree of free speech relative to other social media platforms that expect politically correct speech. Discussion of illegal activities, such as becoming a hero by taking revenge on society by committing a mass shooting """going ER""" among other things, is against site rules.https://incels.is/threads/rules-terminology-and-faq.799/
The forum features a prominent discussion of the blackpill philosophy.
An official Telegram channel exists to share news and notices.
== URL Changes ==
The forum has gone through several URL changes over the years.
.me to .is: On October 19th, 2018, a permanent change was made from the domain incels.me to incels.is. Afilias (the organization that owns .me) dropped the domain due to abuse report raiding (threads at the time made on inceltears point to the subreddit being mainly responsible). While stated that the forum had complied with Afilias and done everything asked of them, the domain was dropped regardless despite compliance.
.is to .co: In March 2019, the domain was changed once again from incels.is to incels.co. Improved SEO and better phonetics were cited for the domain change. 
.co. to .is: On March 2021 (around the 23rd) the site returned to incels.is At the same time, Looksmax.me changed to Looksmax.org). The provider arbitrarily suspended the previous domain but has not given a reason for the act. The domain was later returned.
==Rules==
The rules on the site have mostly remained the same over the years. A slight URL change occurred (aside from the .me to extension) between 2018 and 2020, where "terminology-and" was removed:
*https://web.archive.org/web/20180525160632/https://incels.me/threads/rules-terminology-and-faq.799/
*https://web.archive.org/web/20210206062825/https://incels.is/threads/rules-and-faq.799/
In 2021, a poll was made on the forum asking if users would like to allow or ban content regarding users who have visited escorts and their sexual experiences. By a narrow margin the result was "yes", and thus discussion of escortceling is allowed.
==Style==
The style of posting on incels.is resembles 4chan, as it is a third iteration of 4chan's r9k board, with the banned /r/incels being the second iteration. Its style of posting is impersonal, fast, jokey, and at times sociopathic, again like 4chan. A year or so after it's founding however, the admin implemented a rule where low effort posts are disallowed. incels.co has been known for its incels.co megathreads and cold approach diaries. 
Although because of this process bans on incels.is are very hard to avoid, there is a ban appeal section for users who believe their warnings have been unfair or who want a second chance.
Incels.is has strong rules against bragging, as well as a distinct registration process. Users must include the reason why they want to join, as well as not use VPN's or proxies in order to avoid letting in spammers and alternate accounts of already banned users. 
One unique thing about the forum is that it does not allow women to join, or for non-heterosexuals to talk about LGBTQ topics, according to Master.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s24YgtS0ksA The rationale for this is that women would disrupt discussion in orbiter seeking behavior, and people would encourage incels to transition from male to female. There are feminists who join incel forums to groom heterosexual incels to transition to female and date males so that they do not breed. Also, see R9k for more examples of such behavior. This policy seems similar to a policy that the Japanese chan board: "Men Without Motivation" have.
The forum uses one of the more narrow definitions of inceldom, defining involuntary as only "against will" rather than "against choice or against will".
==Anniversary==
On November 7th, 2021, the site became four years old.

==Significant Events==
=== 1st member to identify as female===
On February 22nd, 2018, a user by the name of Chewbacca posted a ban request in the Inceldom discussion thread. In it, Chewbacca stated that she was female this whole time and got away with posting. Her picture, which was shown, fooled many people into thinking she was an ugly man. However, it is possible that a male user, in an attempt to gain attention or self-humor, has lied about being a female user pretending to be a male.
===Nausea Cagethread===
User Nausea used to post exclusively on a single thread in the Offtopic section of incels.co, due to his broken English and spam-like threads earning him many warnings otherwise. The thread was called affectionately by users "Nausea Cagethread".
===Ban Appeals===
The Ban Appeal section of the site is enjoyed by many users as a source of drama or curious encounters between recently banned users and moderators. The mod who issued the last warning which triggered a permanent ban is the one who has the call on whether to give a second chance to the user in question or not. There is a megathread in the Meta section where regular users can discuss the ban of others.
=== Cliques===
Numerous cliques have formed on incels.is in the past including Ritalin Defense Force.
===LARPgate===
On June 14th, 2018, user Heightframeface exposed another user, Whogivesafucc, as a larper. User whogivesafucc stated he had "gay(once) and straight sex" at the age of 12-13, and had lost his virginity at 14. Many people became angry at this fact and started to complain and raise their suspicion on other Novembercels, as well as other incels. Later in the thread, another user, Blackletcel, was also exposed as a 5'10.5 light complexed, dyed blond hair Tyrone (or Chad of African heritage) who was on a dry streak for 2 years. Before his dry streak, he recalls having a "foid on my [his] dick" (English: woman perform oral sex on him). He also stated he was a volcel because of his rejection of dark skinned African women.
===Media Barrage of 2018===
After the Alek Minassian van attack in Toronto, mainstream media went on a massive media campaign against incel forums consisting of thousands of articles and multiple TV show episodes, specifically against incels.co, despite the fact that Alek Minassian only referenced 4chan, and that to this day no mass shooters have ever participated on the incels.co forum.
===Non-incel accounts===
On May 15th, 2023, Master created a section titled "Ask an Incel" where non incel accounts will be able to post questions. It led to widespread outrage and unrest among the community. Many long-term users threatened to leave unless the section was removed. The section was removed in less than a month after its creation.
===Other users===
====Emba====
Emba born in 1962 is an incels.is user. He is known for being the oldest user in the blackpill forums and the most Wizard cel of them all. He has only had sex with 2 prostitutes and at 62 still has never been in a relationship.
====Intellau Celistic====
Intellau Celistic also known as Incellectually_Shy & Incellectual_Anon is a 5’3 Blackcel with ASD, GAD, Major Depressive Disorder, NLD(Brain Lesion), SSD, and ADHD. [1] He self identifies as a mentalcel despite his drawbacks with height and face. He is known for his very cryptic posts on Incels and incoherent rumble. He regularly posts links to old roblox forum posts he made, DBZ images, stories of his life, his Aspie John character, information about the group home he stayed at & information about genetics. 
==== Animecel2D====
Animecel2D is a notable Incels.is user who was the first to hit 100K posts on the forum. He is a notable post maxxer and one of the best ones seen on the forum. Known for his one liner posts and being a Hapa cel, he regularly has his serious and joking moments. His mother was a Filipina and his father who was a white WASP boomer. As of now he is a NEET and his parents have passed away leaving him with no immediate family.
====General Alek====
Severely autistic White Englishman who genuinely worships Alek Minassian, without condoning violence. Probably the forum's star threadposter of 2023, scoring high viewcounts on the widest variety of threads. He sometimes isolated and posted profound one-line quotes from the autobiography of Elliot Rodger, so that users could enjoy them more easily, without having to go through the whole document. Known for telling everyone that "ER" doesn't mean violence, but means leadership. He was also a close associate of leading incel rockstar Eggman, and often acted as a bridge between Eggman and the forum. He would also document himself leaving autistic comments under the videos of female YouTube vloggers, and their reactions of disgust and anger. One of the most famous users and probably the most polarising figure. Constantly accused of being a federal agent, and constantly bullied and complained about. His presence caused civil war on the forum. He was banned 13 times, and somehow came back 13 times. His apparent immortality gave all the more rise to the theory that he was a federal agent. He rose to the rank of Paragon in November 2023 and ultimately accrued 13,000 posts, without spamming or shitposting. His first account was active from April 2023 to New Years Day 2024. His account was then erased from the forum's database by the newly appointed admin proudweeb, completely obliterating it and making it unsalvageable. General Alek then migrated to Neets.me. Against all odds, his account was somehow reborn onto the forum in April 2024, a new account with the same username and profile picture, though this account was banned later the same day. Many await his return to the forum, and a poll was held in which the majority of the userbase voted for his return. The poll was soon taken down and the user who made it received a warning from proudweeb. In July 2024, General Alek returned to the forum for 1 hour before being banned again. Master later made an announcement to the forum that General Alek's ban had been lifted under death threats to the staff from an incel paramilitary organisation with which General Alek was associated. Master stressed that such threats towards staff will not be tolerated, and also added that anyone found to be associating with this incel paramilitary organisation, will be immediately removed from the forum.
Following this, Master also banned General Alek's account on his other forum, Neets.me. This is the first and only case of such a forum-network-wide ban being issued by Master.
General Alek since moved on to become a moderator on the more extreme new incel forum, mensrights.space.
====RiceRonicel====
Riceronicel Is a 5’4 RiceCel with a Chinese father who died at the age of 10 whos Filipino mother married with a white man who verbally and physically abused him.

He lost his close family members in a car accident a couple years ago and has since then rotted alone. He has a decent career.
He lives in British Columbia, "Canada".
===Pajeetsingh===
Pajeetsingh was a prolific user of the site since he registered in June 2022, in May 2024 he was hardbanned by fat_link. His only fault was abusing a mod, his ban marked the beginning of the most dystopian period in the forum's history. He posted about his ban here .https://incels.in/index.php?threads/given-a-100-ban-for-abusing-a-mod-from-incels-is.52454/ In response to the backlash, Fat_cuck created a new rule no blasphemy against mods that outlawed all forms of insults/abuses against mods. This led to gradual decline of the forum as most users started to migrate over to Blackpill club.
===Made In Heaven===
In May 2024,Made In Heaven, a rabid race baiting turkroach kanger from "Canada" was outed as a sex having normie that was already engaged to a foid. Fat_link hardbanned multiple users(shrewed and lonelysince2006) who tried to confront him.
Mentally Lost Cel 
Mentally Lost Cel is a 6'3" tallcel who refers to himself as "The Prince of Istanbul." He claims to reside in the Kadıköy district of Istanbul. He gained prominence on the incels.is forum as the member who introduced and enforced a rule banning animal abuse and gore. This decision came after a 15-year-old user named Lycan posted pictures of himself killing a lizard on the forum and a user named Cash posted himself beating a cat , sparking controversy.
Mentally Lost Cel even led a campaign advocating for a complete ban on animal abuse across all incel forums. However, his stance on animal welfare has a notable exception—he harbors an intense hatred for dogs. He describes them as "evil and deceiving creatures," which contradicts his otherwise compassionate stance toward animals.
His personal life reveals a history of severe abuse, which has profoundly shaped his worldview. As a child, Mentally Lost Cel endured physical abuse from his father, who would beat him harshly. This difficult upbringing also extended to other family members, with whom he had complex and painful relationships.
In addition to his forum activism, Mentally Lost Cel is known for frequently engaging in heated arguments with other forum members who accuse him of being a "fakecel." These users argue that, because he is 6'3" and tall, he does not fit the traditional image of an incel. Despite the fact that he is a virgin in his mid-twenties, these accusations persist, and the label of "fakecel" has become a recurring point of contention in his interactions with other members.
Another notable controversy surrounding Mentally Lost Cel occurred when he openly expressed his attraction to very feminine-looking trans boys. This admission sparked a wave of backlash from the community, with many members criticizing him harshly. The situation escalated to the point where it led to his second permanent ban from the forum, cementing his polarizing reputation even further.
Mentally Lost Cel’s history reflects a deeply challenging and abusive family dynamic, leaving lasting scars. These experiences provide insight into his often contradictory views and actions.
Beyond his forum activism, Mentally Lost Cel is also known for his apparent obsession with teenage girls he calls jailbaits, a trait frequently discussed by other members of the community. His controversial opinions, troubled past, regular forum conflicts, and polarizing nature have solidified his reputation as one of the most complex figures within the incel forums.

canino1997 is a Turkish incel born in 1997. His father, a "Tyrone" from Senegal, abandoned him and his mother, and Canino1997 has never met him. Raised by his Turkish mother, he grew up without a father figure, which has been a central part of his personal story.

Canino1997 is infamous for his outrageously provocative behavior on Discord and other social media platforms, which has consistently triggered strong reactions from others. He is also known as the person who sended his cum tribute to Bianca Devins's mother, saying she got what she deserved.
Canino1997 is recognized as one of the most infamous incels in Turkey, cementing his place in the online community with his disruptive antics. He is also a close friend of the obese Turkish incel known as Pungent666, further associating him with controversial figures within the incel sphere.
