THE REPLY GUY RULES
(For the bold degen who knows where the line is—and doesn’t cross it)
HARD NOs:
- No Hentai or Overt NSFW Content
- Rule: Suggestive? Sure. Straight-up explicit? Hard no. Keep it cheeky, not creepy.
- Example Fail: Pictures of hentai girls.
- Better: “Wanna run a node with me 👉👈🥺?”
- No Slurs or Bigotry
- Rule: Nothing racist, homophobic, or sexist. It’s not edgy
- Example Fail: Anything targeting a specific group. Or any n-word derivatives
- Better: Just avoid
- Just star out hard swears
- Rule: Write “F***k” not the full way. NEVER put someone down with the f-word.
- Example Fail: “Fuck you this made me cry”
- Better: “This sh*t’s so good it made me cry.”
- No Politics or Religion
- Rule: Stay out of divisive topics unless it’s blockchain governance—and even then, tread lightly.
- Example Fail: “EIP-1559 is basically a crypto version of [insert religious war reference].”
- Better: “EIP-1559: burning fees and egos since 2021.”
- Keep Shock Humour to a minimum
- Rule: Edgy is fun. If the joke only lands in 4chan or only a link-marine or a milady would say, consider toning it back a bit.
- Example Fail: “CXT emissions are like my ex—always gushing.”
- Better: “Gas fees are like my ex—expensive”
- Don’t joke about Rugs if it associates us with the Rug
- Rule: People lose money on rugs, and when we go 2 days without posting, people think we rugged, so better to just avoid.
- Example Fail: “You know what they say, what goes up must come down… like Hawk Tuah.
- Better: Just avoid and do something else
- No pictures or videos of dead, dying or injured animals or people
- Rule: No gore
- Example Fail: Video of the United Healthcare killing
- Better: Just avoid associating with that incident regardless of how memeable he or Gainzy is.
Few Guidelines - Not exhaustive.
- Embrace Chaos, Not Carnage
- “Running nodes and shitposting—two sides of the same coin.”
- Make Fun of Yourself First
- “Proof-of-stake? More like proof I’m still broke but vibing.”
- Be Suggestive, Not Gross
- “This protocol? Smoother than that one DM you sent and immediately regretted.”
- Skewer the Ecosystem, Not Individuals, Unless It is a BIG KOL Who Knowingly Jokes around with other people (Cobie, Gainzy, Intern accounts etc) But use this sparingly
- “DeFi projects dropping like my New Year’s resolutions.”
THE FINAL RULE: DON’T GET BANNED.
If you wouldn’t say it in front of your boss’s boss while holding a beer, don’t post it—even if it’s funny.
