What does the readtherules emoji mean?

The ultimate passive-aggressive way to tell someone they didn't do their homework.

This emoji is a staple for server moderators and community managers who are tired of answering questions that are clearly explained in the rules channel. It serves as a blunt, humorous, and slightly aggressive reminder to check the pinned messages or documentation before asking for help.

When to use it

  • Replying to users asking obvious questions
  • Moderating channels with clear pinned rules
  • Reminding members to check server guidelines
  • Shutting down repetitive questions in chat
