This research was descriptive qualitative research based on impoliteness strategies phenomena in written language.

The instruments of this research were Wi-Fi, laptop, writing equipment, and indicators of impoliteness strategies. The results of analysis showed that from 300 comments collected, there were 584 impoliteness strategies found.

The strategies that were not found was withhold politeness because it only occurred in spoken language. The most used strategies was positive impoliteness.
