The type of thing where someone in a general school chat promotes something like the nft collection they are minting and you want to passively aggresivelly respond
Yeah, concern trolling is great for this. “Oh my god, Jennifer’s account has been hacked by some bot selling essential oils! Someone should call her up and tell her so she can change her password.”
That’s a really good one
What the hell is this link
This might be a bot, careful what links you click
“Pretty sure that’s a bot everybody, careful what links you click”
I’ll start. “Ah, someone got their account stolen”
*stolen
Fixing it thank you!
“FYI, some troll hacked your account and is posting stupid shit.”
I’m so glad I didn’t have to grow up with “a general school chat.” Sounds like a fucking nightmare.
Well it’s a society discord, but there is like 700 people on it and they just posted in general
That’s…odd.
But then again smart phones weren’t a thing when I was in school so most of this kinda stuff seems odd to me. I’m with the other guy, I’m glad I never had to deal with any nonsense resembling this.
Yeah 100%. School was hard enough pre-social media.
I can’t fathom how anyone would enjoy being on a Discord server with more than a few dozen active users, and even then, more than a dozen or so active users at any given time. Above a certain threshold it just becomes noise.
Unless 97% of them never speak. Which, in my experience, is totally plausible.
Still. Weird way to do socials with schoolmates, imo. I would have expected students to self-select into smaller friend groups on Discord or TikTok or WhatsApp or Snapchat or whatever the hell people use now. Not coalesce into one giant digital town square. Not knockin’ it, though. Seems like a neat idea.
97% do never speak, they’re just here to get informations on upcoming events
“Wow, I would never have the courage to do that.”
My favourite so far!
Whenever someone has a very traditional, conservative discourse online, I like to ask if their vision is based on movement. 🦖
Oh I love this, this is really really good
I’m really fond of this one… You can use it in so many contexts.

“Yikes”.
I can’t tell you how much I care what you think. Thanks very much for sharing!
If everyone was as perfect as you, the world would be a very boring place.
Wow. Thousands of years, billions of humans. And I got lucky to find the one human who is the pinnacle of evolution, who possesses all knowledge, has unlocked the secrets of the universe. How did you achieve this? Please, tell me your secret.
“ok”

(Low effort helps)
This one even has a bunch of great gifs to supplement it if they insist on engaging.
“I wonder how much you could really sell them for?” might be too subtle. You might need to bring up https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/sep/22/nfts-worthless-price
You could do something less subtle and say something “Ah, I remember when I collected Beanie Babies. There was this awesome one called Cuddly Buggy that cost me like 3 days of waiting in line and 3,000 dollars! I bet it’s worth like 9 million now.” Replace beanie babies with Pokemon cards, Magic cards, etc.
“Cool! What are they for?”

A simple “no thanks“ will accomplish that and more. They know exactly what you’re saying because every crypto bro is incredibly defensive, but your plausible deniability is basically 100% airtight and the more they push back against it the more it’ll make others walk away. You just have to 100% lie to their face and say you meant nothing by it.
“Let’s change the subject.”

Classic!
