im not sure if this is in the correct thread or not, so I apologize in advance.
I was playing in a match, saying nothing to no one, when a regular by the name of
Battleship OppaiIowa
said the following: "your picture makes you look like you shoot up schools"
and I replied "cool thanks"

idk which link will go to their profile.
my pfp is me. their pfp is some anime girl. so obviously they meant it as an insult and not "joking around" as ive never met the person before.
edit: its not letting me attach the photo proof of the insult
Ok both of the links lead to her steam profile, she has been having trouble because her staff application got denied due to another player, she just isn't in that mindset that she can apply again but needs to improve on some bits and pieces, but overall she just having a bit of a hard time accepting the comments on the application.
"Your picture makes you look like you shoot up schools." Is a common meme roaming around the internet. I wouldn't take it too seriously, just what Lunatic Cultist said. They'll mostly compare you to the Columbine shooters just for dark humor or similar areas to that joke. If someone calls me a school shooter (which I doubt I look like one), then I know they're joking and not actually mean it. Yes, Battleship has been a problem in the past few days or so, but this isn't really the problem, just a unfunny meme.

Yes i can agree a bit, but still no one should joke of school shootings it may be a meam now or whatever, but still in my opinion just don't think it should be said.

Echo here is the image you speaking of. I would have included more screenshots of any before or after conversation but this appears to be the only thing Battleship said to you before or after this statement was made.
It does matter if it’s a meme on the internet right now. People can get seriously hurt from people saying that to them. We can’t tread lightly on these kind of things, it will give lenience to other players. I don’t know if they meant it as a joke. But it’s not very nice and it’s not respectful of others players. Battleship will be talked to.
