Welcome to The Shitpost Office

Shitposts processed from 9 to 5, with occasional overtime on weekends.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Sinister

Treat others like fellow employees, not enemies in the breakroom.

No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
Respect people’s time and space. We’re here to laugh, not to loathe

Rule 2: No Prohibited Postage

Some packages are simply undeliverable. That means:

No spam or scams
No porn or sexually explicit content
No illegal content
NSFW content must be properly tagged

If you see anything that violates these rules, please report it so we can return it to sender. Otherwise? Have fun, be silly, and enjoy the chaos. The office runs best when everyone’s laughing.... or retching over the stench, at least.

I hardly think my response was anywhere near escalation. I responded in good faith and was immediately insulted for it.

Considering I felt insulted, why are you the arbiter of what is and isn't an insult? The M next to your name?

Yes, the M next to my name does make me the arbiter of what is and is it an insult when it comes to dealing with the rules. You were also not insulted. You were questioned. There is a significant difference.

The other user had responded to you in such a way that could be construed as rude. You actively insulted them and called them something specific. That is what we call an escalation.

I'm not continuing this. You've been informed of the situation and up to you on how you want to deal with it.
