Being hostile is not.</span><br /><span>Disagree with takes, not people. “Your brew is bad” &#x274c;</span><br /><span>“Your extraction might be off because…” &#x2705;</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>2. Coffee &gt; Ego</span></strong><br /><span>Nobody cares how expensive your grinder is if your attitude tastes worse than burnt </span><span>coffee</span><span>.</span><br /><span>Share knowledge, don’t flex it.</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>3. No low-effort spam</span></strong><br /><span>We love memes and shitposts—but make them </span><em><span>funny or interesting</span></em><span>.</span><br /><span>“Is this coffee?” with a blurry photo of mud = no.</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>4. Use clear titles</span></strong><br /><span>Help people help you.</span><br /><span>Bad: “Help pls”</span><br /><span>Good: “Why is my </span><span>V60</span><span> bitter at 2:30 brew time?”</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>5. Stay on topic(ish)</span></strong><br /><span>Coffee is the focus: brewing, beans, gear, cafés, etc.</span><br /><span>A little chaos is fine. Total derailment is not.</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>6. No misinformation</span></strong><br /><span>If you’re giving advice, try to base it on reality.</span><br /><span>“Boiling water extracts faster” is fine.</span><br /><span>“Microwaving beans improves flavor” is a crime.</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>7. Respect all brew methods</span></strong><br /><span>Yes, even </span><span>French press</span><span>. Especially </span><span>AeroPress</span><span>.</span><br /><span>Coffee snobbery is allowed. Coffee elitism is not.</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>8. Keep it safe for work</span></strong><br /><span>No explicit content, illegal activity, or anything that would get someone fired if opened at a café.</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>9. No self-promo spam</span></strong><br /><span>If you’re a roaster, café, or content creator—engage with the community first.</span><br /><span>Drive-by promotion = removed.</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>10. Mods have final say</span></strong><br /><span>We try to be fair, not perfect. If something gets removed, there’s probably a reason.</span><br /><span>If not, message us like a normal human.</span></p>
<div><hr /></div>
<p class="isSelectedEnd"><strong><span>&#x2615; Final note:</span></strong><br /><span>Good coffee takes patience. So does a good community.</span><br /><span>Be curious, be helpful, and don’t rinse your filter with cold water.</span></p>
<p><span>Now go brew something.</span></p>]]></content:encoded>
